Wo have received a pamphlet pub
lished by J. H. Noteware, Stale Su
perintendent of Immigration, descrip
tive of the Stato of Nebraska. It is
illuetrated by a new and authentic
map, and Is accompanied by some
statements in answer to the queries:
Where is it? What is it? What is
it to become? and when shall these
thing6be? It is a faithful delinea
tion of tho soil, climate, resources,
and development of our State. It jr
a hojoacopo, so to speak, from which
the future growth aud wealth of our
young commonwealth may be pre
dicted. JU wide circulation would
not fall to Increase materially the

Ths defeat of Pomeroy In KansaB
for the U. S. Senator-hip was as dis
graceful as it was complete. In joint
session of tho legislature a Senutor
arose and produced a roll of bills to
the amount of $7,000, which had btjen
paid him by Pomeroy'fi own hand for
his influence In securing his election.
This denouement created a thrilling
seusutlon, aud.:in the ballot which
followed not one vote was cast for
Senator Pomeroy. Tho successful
candidate, Col. John J. Ingalls, is
said to be a man of unimpeachable
reputation. With the divulgences
which are being made by the Cald
well investigation, by which that
Senator is shown to have purchased
his election, Kansas politics mint be
at a pretty low ebb.
Dr. E L. Gandy, of Humbolt, N
brask, has again come to grief. While
under arrest last summer and pend
ing hie trial for falsely personatiug
tbe U. S. Marshal, whereby he ob
tained $400 from qn uasophisticated
victim, he attempted to spirit awa3 a
imnwaj a
wituees, for which Ue was fined $1000
and costs and imprisoned for three
months. He served out hi impris
ument, but did not pay his fine. An
execution was lately Issued to collect I
the fine and costs amounting to $1500,
and a levy made upon the land, store
nnd goods of Dr. Gandy in Hum
boldt. Under the plea that the prop
arty belonged to Mrs. Gandy, nnd not
being able to brook tho "law's delay,"
the gallant Doctor procured the ser
Icos of a constable, and the twain re
took it from the custody of tho law.
For this little diversion they have
both been invited to rUe and explain

From the meehes of tho Credit Mo
bilier transactions the Omaha JTcrald
discovers a "triumphant vindication"
for James Brooks. Now it is a noto
rious fact that Brooks has been en
tangled more than auy of the other
gentlemen who have been connected
with it, nnd with his vindication the
whole transaction will be reduced to
a notorious public scandal. Seriously
onsidered we do not believe that the
investigation proves more than that

tion, nor rendered any. What favor

Railroad has had, accused nnd unac
cused Congressmen have participated
in alike. The essential ingredient to
criminate any of theio gentlemen,
the Intent, is utterly wanting. Of
couree the scheme a6 now understood
looks extremely questionable, but
none of them teem to have been ac

THE RAIMIOAD QUESTION
Congress has recognized the neces
sity of commercial legislation and
has directed its attention toward ef
fecting a reform in tho matter of
"Rail Road Rule." The constitution
of' tlie United States has reserved to
Congress the right to control com
merce between tho States. A com
mon protection against local and con
flicting laws is thus provided, and it
is beingdiscovered that a more effective-
control can be thus secured over
those great corporations that carry on
the inter-State trade.
Railroad corporations are showing
an increased disregard for the right.
of the people. They act in defiance
of the local laws of those Stales thro'
whose limits their roads happen to
pass. They seem to have leagued to
gether In a despotic ciusade against
the people. Self aggrandizement at
the expense of an impoverished and
outraged public, is the attitude main
tained by all railroad magnates. Con
pider that five bushels of grain are
consumed in transporting one to the
sea board, through the extortions of
railroad monopolies, and we have
pome faint idea of the servitude the
great mas of our people are suffering
at the hands of railroad kings.
We are glad to see congress alive
upon this subject. Four bills have
been introduced in tho House, and
tbe Senate has appointed a special
committee to investigate the matter.
The people should be alive to the
importance of this movement, aud by
every possible means impress their
Senators and Representatives witli
theimpoitauce of remedying speedily,
the ills which they have so long and
patiently borne.

ANSWER TO IIKEEZY.
Editor of Nybrixsltu Advertiser.
Thinking that it would probably
interest many of your reader to pe
ruse a statement of how the Board of
Equalization performod their labors,
I will endeavor to explain it in as
brief a manner aH possible so as to be
understood. The alphabetical list of
each precinct Assessor shows, when
made in conformity to law, tho iiiim-
bers and values of property required
to be listed, and, of connie, tho foot-
I ...! .1- - . . .
nigs give me amouni in me precinct
and their total value. Now, to illus-
trate, the average value of horses, &c,
in eacii precinct, as returned by tbe
Assessors, being ascertained, the
Board find that in Brownville pre
cinct horses average, say, SGo.00; in
Nemaha City precinct, $30.00; in Pe
ru precinct, 35.00, &c, and Hum it is
ascertained that tho average for the
entire county on horses, as returned
by the Assessors, is $42.50. The
Board now proceed to order sucli a
per cent added to or deducted from
each precinct so as to make it con
form to this general average. Tims
if ton per cent is added to A and B's
precinct, A's $20.00 horse would be
valued at $22.00, while B's one hun
dred dollar horse would be valued at
$110.00.
Tho Board were of opinion that
gross errors hud been made in the re
turns under tho item of "capital em
ployed in merchandise," and were
fully confirmwl in this opinion by ev
idence presented to theiu, among
which was the fact that many merch
ants misconstrued the law and claim
ed the privilege of deducting their in
debtedness from their "merchandise"
as well as fiom their "monies and
credits." Having ascertained these
facts the Board ordered the Ansessors
to re-assess, (under special instruc
tions issued to them,) all such per
sons as in their judgment had proba
bly failed to niako correct return.
Under this re-assessment some merch
ants made corrections, while others
positively lefused to make any alter
ations, and claimed that their version
of the law was correct, or at least
ought to be. The report was made
after the corrections.
"Breezy" says "Land in Benton
precinct was ordered to be raised 30
percent., aud in Bedford 33 per cent."
We will suppose that it is correct.
Upon examining the returns of the
precinct assessors tho Board found
that the land in oino precincts had
been valued much above any previous
valuation, and evidentlv too bhrh
while oiher ,,r...ii..i- tvr , .i.......
j-- - w...wJ , l l k. UUU il
precincis were p
at very low figures. These values the
Board deemed it their duty to equal
ize, ami as the Board of Equalization
have no power to change the total of
the asaeeiinent they raise 6ome pre
cincts and reduce others, as seems
best in their judgment, to do justice
to all. Of course, if the value wan
reduced in all the precincts which
had been assessed high by the assess
ors and no corresponding- increase
made on other precincts, tho total of
tho nxsessmeut would be changed.
Tho Board saw fit to secure the ad
vice of those who are generally con
ceded to be best informed ami most
interested in the value of real estate,
and. the changes made were entirely
satisfactory to those present and con
versant with the action taken in tho
premises.
The law allowing exemption for
the planting of fruit and forest trees
permits the amount exempted to be
taken from "the-amount of taxable
property," and it is purely accidental
whether it is taken from the really or
personal property. A vast amount of
dissatisfaction must necessarily arise
, from the irregular manner in which

While on the subject of taxation
permit me to say to those who have
purchased school lands of the State,
aud have refused to pay taxe- thereon
under the impression that such lands
were not subject to taxation until the
title was entirely vested in the pur
chaser and final payment made there
on, that tho Suprenje Court, recently
in session at Lincoln, has decided
that "sohool lands when sold by the
State are liable for taxes fron the
time the sale is made, the same as
other property."

STATE FOKESTBK.
A bill is now pending in the Senate,
for "An Aot to define tho duties of
State Forester and to repeal all tree
exemption laws."
Reliable data show that existing
tree exemption laws cost the State,
the past year, over two hundred thou
sand dollars. The cost to Nemaha
county alone, as we Bet forth some
time since, was fourteen thousand fire
hundred dollars. The bill under con
sideration repeals nil the exemption
laws now in existence, ami provides
that the State Forester shall collect
and distribute seeds, trees and cut
tings to counties and individuals free
of ccwi ; that he shall, by experiment
al cultivation on the State Model
Farm m connection with the Agri
cultural Col lego of the University,
determine what varieties are bed
adapted to various localities and 'oIliilaiiluMtw in ni8 amotion to duty, while
in the State; that he shall collect all
information in relation to tree plant
ing, and by the aid of circular.-'), lec
tures, &c. promulgate such informa
tion to the people; that all Agricul
tural Societies, State or County, nlmll
pay out annually, as premiums for
tree planting, ten per cent of all the
monies thy receive from the public
treasuries. They State Board of Ag
riculture is made a State Forest
Board, and the three principal oilicers
of County Agricultural Societies con
stitute a County Board, and where
there are no county organizations the
County Commissioners! constitute the
Board. In counties where there are
no County Agricultural Societies the
County Commicbioners are to offer
and award premiums for tree plant
ing. The whole expanse the firt
year shall not exceed Ave thousand
five hundred dollars, after the first
year not to exceed four thousand five
hundred dollars annually.
The pending bill, if it becomes a
law. will save the State, annually, at
least two hundred thousand dollars,
and will not only keep up but in
crease the tree growing disposition of
our people. This is an idea of Gov.
Furnas, who is also l'reoident of the
Slate Board of Agriculture, and
meets the unqualified approbation of
.!.. . -.1. . 1. .
ail prominent Agriculturists to whose
attention the matter has been called.
We believe it will carry
THE PENITENTIARY.
Another idea emanating with Gov.
Furnas, is deserving of notice. In
tho Governor's opinion, penitentia
ries are built, not so much in which
to punish aud inflict torture upon
prisoners, hut rather as reformatory
institutions, and with this end in
view, he thinks that instead of keep
ing tho prisoners pecking at stone, or
employed at auy other business, eith
er with tho view of punishing them.
or making gain from their services,
they should be enabled to work at
their trades, If they have trades, and
after earning the price of their keep
ing, receive the residue for their own
benefit. Thin would enable those of
the prisoner who have families to do
something for their support, and
would do much to lighten hearts al
most crushed by separation from lov
ed ones. Surplus earnings of single
men could be deposited to the credit
of prisoner until expiration of sen
tence, thus enabling them to step
forth to freedom with menu where
by they could reach friends or sepa
rate thcmselre Jrom the scene of
their late disgrace. We rather ad
mire the idea, And would like to see
it practically demonstrated.
DISTIHRUTION OF SCHOOL FUND.
Senator Shook hoa-presented a bill
providing for the ."distribution of the
School Fund among the several coun
ties of tbe State, in proportion to the
number of children of "school age"
in each county. It has been propos
ed by some that the School Fund be
awarded to the custody of such coun
ties as created said fund, but sueh
proposition is the offspring of selfish
ness and illiberality, inasmuch as
such distribution would leave all of
tho southwestsrn counties of the
State without any share in such fund.
Wo aro of tho.-,e who belieMe that lib
eral, honest legislation will pay fully
as well an liberal and honest dealings
In tho commercial' and social world.
Besides such illiberal action would re
bound, inasmuch as but few years
can elapse ere the southwestern por
tion of our State will have such rep
resentation in our Legislature as will
enable it, not only to protect its own
interest, but to rotaiiato for injury in
flicted, or sought to be inflicted, when
they stood powerless suppliants for
aid and encouragement. The perma
nent fund aggregates, or will when
all paid in, $Gt5.000. Add to this
S7S.O0O, amount of the five per cent
fond, and wo have a grand total of
$743,000, which, apportioned as pro
posed by Senator Shook, will give to
Nemaha county, with her 3,000 chil
dren, some $45,000, or $15.00 to each
pupil. Then, again, it will add to
the capital of Nemaha county some
$45,000, a reserve from which our peo
ple could draw at pleasure, on long
time, at reasonable interest, good se
curity on!,) being required.
Originally there were 4,000,000 acres
of laud in Nebraska, known as
school lands, of which upwards of
3,000,000 acres are yet undisposed of.
The average price at which these
lands have been sold has been $7 per
acre, which would, at the same aver
age, leave a prospective fund of up
wards of $27,000,000. But the average
of what is left will really be more
than $7. Now let it. be understood
that in the distribution of this fund
no apprehensions need be entertained
that banks or other corporations' wou Id
or could get control of the funds, but
on the eontrarv it would-be held in
trust by the several counties and
loaned out by the sworn tjfflcers of
tuch.
EX-OOV. BGTIER.
This gentleman has been quite ill
for some time past, but is now well
upon his pins again. We learn from
his ex-ecellenoy that he is desirous
of settling his V'ttle indebtedness to
the State, and in order so to do, pro
pose that a joint camnilttee pf the
Legislature be appointed to. examine
his mansion and contiguou3 grounds
and report to the Legislature hat, j
in their judgment, it iH worth, and
that ho will dispose of it to the gov-
... ,j .,,
emment for any sum said committee
shall put upon it. As the State sure-
ly needs a mansion for its poorly paid
Governor, it la to be hoped tho Legis
lature will utilize this debt in the
manner indicated.

STATE NORMAL BCIIOOt..
Editor Nebraska Advertiser;
Your readers will be interested in
the present status of Normal School
matters at Lincoln. Only one puny
arm has been raised against it, with
the Mime liTdicrous results that at
tended tho valorou- Knight's assault
upon the wind mill. Poor Knight,
we pity thee!
Governor Furnas, having visited
the school and made himsvlf thor
oughly acquainted with its condition,
wants and prospects, called attention
to it in his inaugural and recommend
ed liberal aid to it.
Senator Shook likewirc has taken
very great pains to inform himself
regarding its needs, and with a quiet,
intelligent, persistent zeal, worthy of
the great cause, luw devoted himself
to its interests, and nobly has he been
rewarded by receiving the unanimous
vote of the Senate for his bill appro
priating $10,000 for the school.
Ths is a special appropriation de
signed for the following purposes:
1. To meet a deficiency arising from
non-payment of tlie half mill tax for
erecting tlie new building. We can
not complete the building without
this.
2. To put in heating apparatus.
The building must be heated.
3. To furni.-h It with seats and oth
er absolutely necessary appliances.
4. To give us the beginning of a li
brary, and an apparatus for illustrat
ing science.
5. To remodel the old building so
that it can be converted into a bouid
ing hall a home for young lady pu
pils. $1G.0D0. compared with tho sums
given the University for similar pur
poses, is very rmall,and is not as large
a sum as the Normal should have, but
has been put at that figure in view of
the hard times.
The bill has yet to pass the House,
but after the careful scrutiny and tbe
unanimous approval of the Senate,
there can be no doubt of its pasme.
Representatives Wheeler and Blod
gett are both in earnest, hearty, ac
tive sympathy with it. Judge Wheel
er visited the school and has in other
ways carefully informed himself, and
gives the measure his suppn;t from a
deep conviction of its justness. I
have yet to hear of a single Repre
sentative, from any part of the State,
opposed to or lacking sympathy with
the school. The Legislature is com
posed not of schemers, but of men
fre-.h from the people, thoroughly im
bued with popular ideas, and 'hey re
alize that nothing so touches every
popular interest, and so deeply in
volves the general welfare as the
cause of univ. rsal education.
The Normal School is the people's
.-chool, is a department of the great
common system which has been call
ed, happily, "the people') college,"
and all, every man and especially ev
ery child, in the Stato is personally
interested in its success. The school
is endowed with land which, with
proper care and patience, will one day
yield a handsome income. But it is
not all available now and hence the
school is obliged to ask for temporary
aid. It is now in the full tide of pros
perity, is growing in reputiou, popu
lar favor aud in influence, it is crowd
ed with students, and proper effort
will easily double the number; the
schools of the State are rapidly in
creasing in number and grade, and
are demanding a greater number of
well trained teachers.
Other States are watching with in
terest the success of this enterprise,
and will hail with joy, wise action on
the part of the Legislature in making
provision for its wantn.
Liberal provision for a school so im
portant, so far reaching in its influ
ence would be the wisest economy.

A TEXIKIIIXiE PATE BURNED
DEATH.
TO
Early yesterday morning a farm
house owned by Jeremiah Bebm,
EtHj., burned to the ground, and a hu
man being lot his life at the same
' time and place. The dwelling was a
leiinni mmae Miimieu m. ..... '"
farm, about six miles trom tbe city,
d CVas 0k.cuuie, by a man named
Gulhnrdt, iiis wife, brother, and sis
ter. They also had empioyeu a iiireu
man named Zimmerman to nsist
them. On the evening in question
the family went to a wedding, leav
ing the hired man and the sister at
home. About midnight the house
took Are, it is thought from some
shavings which lay near the stove,
and speedily woke up the inmates.
Tho girl ran down stairs and escaped,
but Zimmerman did uot como out
quick enough. Tho girl says he
come to a window, and she called to
him to br. ak tlie sash out and jump
down. He broke open the window
and then replied, "I can't come now,"
and turned away. She nwya ho did
not seem to be affected by the smoke,
for his voice was clear enough, and,
as it was only about nine feet to the
ground, his reason for not attempting
to save himself is something of a
mystery. Coroner Conkling went
on1 yesterday afternoon, and held an
inquest. The evidence adduced be
fore the jury led them to believe that
the unfortunate man hesitated simply
because he wasn't dressed, and that
ho attempted to go back to bin room
for hi3 clothes. With a due sense of
the terrible cataslronhe which hap
pened we must say, that as an exam
ple of hemic modesty, there probably
ha never been recorded a parallel.
The jury returned a vordict in ac
cordance with the facts above given.

Terrilile Effects or the I.ixto Snow
Slarm.
From tho St. I'mil Plonoor.
We are indebted to Mr. E. O. Zim
merman for the following graphic de
scription of the storm at Winnebago
City:
Mr. Zimmerman arrived at Winne
bago City about noon on Tuesday.
There were fully 60 teams in Winne
bago City that day. Farmers with
their wives were there, having left
their children at home, in many in
stances alone, little dreaming o'f the
fearful dancer so near at hand. Sud
denly, and without any warning, the
storm burst in all its fury. A panic
ensued. Teams were hurridly hitch
oil up. and fathers and mothers, fear
ing for the fate of their dear, helpless
ones at nome. siarreil oir in the face
of the pitiless wind and driving miow.
Those who had to face the storm, in a
number of cases, were compelled to
turu back, thankful to have got back
to the village alive. Others kept on,
and. it i feared, met a terrible death
in the snow-drifts.
From Tuesday afternoon nt 2 until
Thursday oveninc at 7 o'clock, the
storm raged in all Its fury. Mr. Zim
merman says that during all that time
it was almoHt unsafe to attempt to
cross the street of the village. The
buildinu'R w re shaken like reeds, and
fears were entertained that some of
them would blow over. The 'dr was
so densely filled with snow that a
building ton feet distant could not be
seon.
On Saturday last seventeen coffins
were taken out of New TTlm to bury
the dead bodie found in the immedi
ate vicinity of that place. At Lake
Ih'nkey, six miles from Lake Crys
tal, the bodies of 13 person had been
found frozen to death. Six children,
who had been attending school be
tween Fort Ridgleyaml Beaver Falls,
were found frozen to death, the teach
er having unwisely allowed them to
leave the school-room. Another
teacher (whoe name we hope to
learn) near New Ulm, kept his forty.
scholars from 1 iiesday evening until
Friday, walking himself a mile or
more through the storm to cet food for
them. We want thi- man's name.
From tho St. Paul Press.
As intimated in the Prcc immedi
ately after the subsidence of the terri
ble storm of la-t week, the record of
the disaster to life and property re
sulting therefrom is thoroughly sick
ening to contemplate. While every
section of the State contributes a por
tion of the harrowing details the en
tire western frontier of Minnesota
sends up a return of dead, missing
and maimed which seems more like
tbe carnage of battle than the result
of any erratic ami wonderful commo
tion of tbe elements. The accounts
agree In representing the storm as
traveling with remarkable velocity,
and enveloping those caught in its
dead y meshes, almost before they

made that sleighs were overturned
and men prostrated as though they

room to doubt that the major portion

chapters, between ! o'clock on that fa

MARKET REPORTS.
Review of lUo Chicago 3InrUcta.
The Chicago Journal of Omimrree of theSOth
of January says the condition of tho money
market during the past fow weeks has been
peculiar. The tremenduous snow storm, tho
blockadoor tho-rallro.ids, aud thculmost en
tiro cessation of bnsines3 of every kind,
makes Itexceedlngfpdtllicultto give a con-,
Mstant report of tho market. Purchasers of
f goods have hoen either prevented from corn-
In? lata thecltyor from consummating their
purchase. Shippers of stook have also been
Interrupted In their business. Largo pur
chases continue to be made In the hog crop,
nnd of course It is too soon to renllzo anything
on the millions thus looked up. Huslness
men can look only for the pre&eut circulation
of the currency paid out by shippers and
packers, and much or this goes in to the coun
try before It again llnds its way Into circula
tion. The probability is that the- money
market will continue stringent until large
shipments, of qraln, provisions, etc., shall
have been made, til tlie meantlmo blinkers
will handle their funds carefully, nceommo
ors. Wheat The market has fluctuated some
what during the week, caused by advices
from New York and Liverpool, but prices are
but o less than at tlie cleae of our la-t tor
all grades. Casli sides of No. 1 are reported
at 131l l-i- No. 2 at 1J11'21, No. 3 at
1 ll'4l UK, and Rejected at 9Jo.
Cokn Tne mtrketvhos been dull and a
shade lower during tho past week. Prices
were Arm li New York, and in Liverpool
unchanged. Recepts of corn are light. The
dullness perhaps arises from tlie fear that on
the breaking up of the snow blockade there
would be sin avalanche of corn Ue that as
It may, purchasera were wary and not much
was done in th- market. Cash sales were
reported at 30J.."1)Vj or No. 2, nnd Rejected
at 27i In the ear and on track at 35c.
Oats But few buyers were in the market,
but prices wero well kept up. Reported
scarce and strong In New York. Oirerlngs
for the local trade limited. Cash sales were
reported of No. 2 at32(ile.
Cattle Shippers are seoking good to
choice native stock at 5 2."j0, and for medi
um to fair grades are oirerlng at I50o. In
ferior and mixed stock range at 1752 25.
Tlie regular arrival and departure ot trains,
and tho latest reports from tlie eastern mar
kets, look a little more favorablo for the sel
lers. Hogs Nothing sold under .ISO; 90. The
bulk of the stock found buyers at .VJ04 10
nnd extra lots brought 4 12&l 15. The pur
chases of shippers were not large.

noticeable, the market lullngstcady atabntit

Review of tlie St. l.ouls Zllnrlietu.
From theSt. Louis Democrat.
The Wheat suei'i-v. Ju-t whereour mil
lers are to diaw tneir supplies of winter
wheal trom lor the next six mouths itinrd
to determine. During tbe lust six they have
been drawing largely from Tennessee Ken
lucky, Indiana, Ohio and Michigan, but ac
cording to reliable advice tbe niipyly from
these areas is practically exhausted. "When
not exhausted the price which local buyers
are willing to pay Is larger that can be net
ted by -,lnp,)lii4 the grain here. In. Michigan,
Indiana and Uiiio, tliere ntill remains some
Wheat in tir.-,t hands, but held It too hiich a
ligure lor our market. Central Illinois Is
pretty thoroughly cleaned out. Southern
Illinois contains a llilit stinrk, yet her local
mills uw olfering larger prleos tor It than
can bo netted tiere. Southern Missouri has
enough left lor bread, and the price at j
winch seed winter was sold in tbe Southwest
the past tall drew away from this city all the '
wheat of the region. Hesiil.- ibl.-,, Georgia '
lstiowa strong imivr or winter wheat in
this market, and will follow Die inarl;et In
lit upward Ilijjht in winter, and carry away
n large percentage ot the offerings. Of spring '
wneai there is iiKoty to lieu lull supply, yet
the position and strength of winter wheat
must lend a warm coloiiug to prices of
spring. Not only d e the moderate supply
wheat in this country betoken a Arm mark
et anil rather upward taiige In future price
oi Hour and wheat, hut the position of bread
ntull's In Knglauil also warrants the belief
that prices lor L?73 will average considerable
higcr than they ranged during l.s72. The
present stock ot wheat in London is stated
at .ijO.UpO quartern night bushels to thequnr
terj against .),(!." qnarlers last year. In
Liverpool the stock of wheat Is ll'.lXn) quar
ters less than It was last year at this time,
ami flour Is 2n,(H sacks and lU.txKi barrels less
than the stofk held at tills time last yar.
Added to this is tlie statement generally
in. ule by the English pros. that the crop of
winter wheat now in the ground is not only
promising most wretchedly, and that but
about half tho area Intended for winter
wheat was got In.
tly all tlie lights now available. It appears
that the peiee of brendstuirs will mort Itkely
rule higher tor the next six mon lis than X Ii
present range, and if the markets of Kng-
land advance, a they necessarily must in
times of emp failure, It is not nt'nll llkely
thal English tanners will lose the amount
of money which Mr. Scott predicts Tbe
present trouble brewing In Russia which
England mav he drawn into, is quite llklv to
form a disturbing element in tbe pnlucr
markets of this country, and England may
be compelled to pay prices for her meat and
bread within tlie coming six months not
paid by her since the Crimean war.
Wheat Spring wheat dull, but choice
winter was in better movement though at
easier prices, on Saturday Inst. Millers were
offering low price nil round. Nos. 3 and 2
were lower, and common grades were nt a
decline of 2c, and weak. We quote Mediter
ranean 5170-172; (Northern) $1 72 I SO.

Oats Were quiet and unchanged. No. 2
mixed 31 to 32c.
Cattle During the forepart of the week
the depression of trnde was owing chiefly to
the poor quality of slock on nle, tlie droves
being by no means suitable for tho Eastern
markets, hence operations on the part of
shippers were limited much against their
own wishes. Under the Influence of favora
ble advices from tho East which quote tin
advance there, shippers were quite anxious
to purchase, but were unable to do so. The
following are the quotations: Extra to choice
native steers S3 73 to $6 ; fnlr to good natives.
$1 fiO to 55, common to choice Texans, SI 7oto
$!37ii; common to cholco cows and heifers,
SI 75 to 3 J.
Hobs This market, Influenced by light re
ceipts and the presence of Clneinnnttl and
Louisville buyers, has presented a look of ac
tivity and briskness, and a higher range of
values than has been the ense forn number
of weeks past. Tlie attendance of buyers on
Saturday was good, and sales were larger
than they have been for some lime. Sale
were martoat 53 10 to Si 25.; In bulk at 34 to
