Floats your linages sae dear.

Ever nero where graces seem.

To ba troopln1 over comln' ,
Till we ken the blessed throne ,
An' wl * them your praise we're hummln ,
In tlie melody ot song.
Linger , for we love to erect you.
Love to hoar your voices swe t ,
Love in sacred prayer to meet you ,
Hound the Saviour's mercy seat.
Linger where the bairns are cheery ,

Where they'll join the Inds In merry
Games ef youth the lang day thro' .
Linger where they'll trend the meadows
Trallln' perfumes nt their feet ,
Dlvin' deep Into the shadows
Where the feathered song chins meet.
Linger linger , dlnna leave us ,
For our hearts sae happy are ,
Parting thus will salrly grieve us
Dinna uang awa sae fur.

Guarded By a Corpse.
Vaquira ( Neb. ) Enterprise : In the
Squaw Peak rango.A. T. , is a cave which
no prospector has the nerve to attempt
to exploreon account of it being guarded
by a ghost. In the entrance sits u thing
that looks like the corpse of un Indian
woman. In 1803 a Party of whites found
the cave Tilled witli 1'onto Indians , whom
they attacked and murdered. Since then
no one has the courage to try to enter the
cave because of the tnmg that sits in the
door. Last week George Matthews and
his partncr.namod McCloud , being in the
range , concluded to have a look nt the
Squaw cave , not having any faith in the
stories told of it , The cuvo is situated
under the highest butte of the Squaw
Peak range. They found it and just took
ono look nt the thing fitting in its mouth.
Matthews declares there is not enough
money in Maricopa county to pay him to
go 1110 re again , and his partner.McCloud ,
has not stopped running since at least
he has not been seen smco that time.

CHICAGO 1'llODUCE MAHKET.
CHICAGO. July so. [ Special Tclemm to
the BKK. I Tr.o pressure of August wheat
upon the market carried prices down J4@Jfc.
St. Louis declined a full In , and other homo
markets were & @ 2 < o lower. Cables wore
steady , and no alteration In prices Is men
tioned. The general public Is lending the
market no support whatever , and the bears
are aggressive , and as the bulls ore apparent
ly unwilling to stand a serious loss on in
vestments , the speculative values look shaky
to disinterested observers. The semi-panic
In Wall street Is felt also on the produce
exchange , though the shipping demand for
foreign account prevents a serious shrinkage
in values. The seaboard clearances for the
first five days of the week aggregate 1,007,000
bushels , against 900.000 bushels for the cor
responding period last week , and western
point receipts for the week are not materially
larger than last week. Statisticians are
guessing on an increase ot about 1,000,000
bushels In the visible. The market did not
seem to have been fully able to digest the
load of long wheat that came out yesterday ,
and the opening this morning was off > { @ o
as compared with yesterday , The
phrase "limpness , " describes the tone ot the
market , and the tone did not undergo any
decided change for the bettor up to t o'clock ,
though the break of } { a from the opening
figures In August was recovered and tbo
first and last quotations were identical.
There was a good deal of changing over of
August contracts Into Inter months , and the
difference between August and September
averaged 15f31c , thoimh at one time It
was lie. Elevator companies are making it
an object for holders to keep wheat hero , a
circumstance which accounts for the stirink
go In the premium. Local stocks are get
ing down to a lower limit than warehouse
men like to see. Auzust opened at ? 7.o nnd
fluctuated between G7Jflaoc , closing at C7 c.
September opened at 70 c , sold down to
6UKc , and closed at the bottom. October
opened at 72Kc and closed at 71Kc , these
prices bulnir the extremes. The volume of
trade was above an average. A fair degree
of activity In the cash market was roportea ,
and hike engagements for 225,000 bushels
were given out to-day.
Corn was stubborn and steady , though
prices again slipped back a pee , May , as
usual , ruling the strongest in the list of
"uturos and alone closing a fraction higher
liau yesterday. Trade was rather quiet and
the market was destitute of new or sensa
tional features. The crop news was of the
name character that has been drlrtlng iu all
tno week. It Is contradictory , but In the
main going to.coniirm reports that the crop
has sustained considerable damage In certain
sections. August corn opened at 87 0 ,
ranged a" ' @ ! TXc , nnd closed at 37J < c. Sep.
tembcr opened at 3Sc , sold down to 3S ) < cue -
uo to S8 ; c and closed at :53 : c < 257 ! ; c. Octo
ber opened nt pojfc , sold off to ffJc and.back
to tint openlnt ! price , closing tliero. May
started In at Sfjreasold down to 41Mc and up
to 41e , closing there. There was quite a
little rally right at the close , caused oythe
binlng in ot sjiortsby local scalpers.
The oats market * was again heavy and de
pressed by reason of largo offerings of more
than the usuaKTiroportlon of consignments
having to be ninced In store.
Provisions closed' the week In a quiet man
ner. Not muqb Interest was manifested to
day , and with'ngglar ' traders about the only
business transttctciV was changing over or
making pnjvWIonMfor maturing contracts.
The cash. pr4ldn Lwas also slower than
usual. In trftSn'ernl market , however , n
strong feeling prevailedand September the
pivotal future was unchanged for lard and
UKo higher for short ribs , tiard for Septem
ber sold at S0.07 C0.70. nnd short ribs at

It appears that in Germany the credit
system is very widespread , and that the
purchasers in settling their accounts are
generally much longer than in Franco
and England. Nearly every commercial
aud manufacturing branch of buslnoss
has its own particular terms of credit ,
and there is no uniformity in this ro-
spcct.
In Engl and the payment of the price
of the goods delivered is required nt the
end of three months , dating from the day
of shipment.
In Franco a four months' acceptance
is required to bu sent in settlement ofthe
invoice.
In Italy but little orodit is done , nnd
uono without good security being gjvon.
In Spain four-lifths of the transactions
are done on a cash basis , while in Portu
gal great liberality is shown and quite a
long credit is usually allowed.
In Austria it is scarcely possible to do
business without allowing a very long
credit , which is nearly always ono of six
months.
In Turkey , even objects of prime ne
cessity are Hold on credit , and in this
country na well as in Russia , the time
allowed is in most cases twelve months.
In Canada settlements are niadu at the
end of thirty days , with a discount of C
percent. Sometimes a cicdlt of from
three to six months is allowed , but in this
case there is no discount.
In Mexico the large commercial houses
willingly give credit of tiom six to eight
months and in the retail trade longer
terms are given customers in which to
BOttle their accounts.
In Costa Itica a credit of from six to
twelve month isgiven in case of merchan
dise imported from Kuropu. in order that
the goods may bo easily ana quickly dis
posed of. lint since tins system of credit
has often left to losses , it is now bulng
given up.
In Cuba the time fixed for payment is
ccncruily from four to live mouths after
the delivery of the goods.
