The Inst report on the jail reads contnulidorily. whatever '.may have Ke the.inteutioh of the (irand Jurv. The rejort says, "We found the build ing neat aud clean," but in a few sen tences further ahng coiuvs this state ineiit, "We find that the appearance of the jail both exterior and interior is ,S()T very neat," recommending'cveu'! that 'money Ikj spent, 41y which it could be niaije' tnrat.

Iiojxjs for , good weather for a few days longer, to assure a large. crop of corn, which lie knows can be sold ou i.tfie other side, for cash at good prices, and he wants to handle it Vliile j wjieat is tlie priuciiial grain exported, principal gram export com is gradually creepiug up I to it in iujportanco, and" this year is likely to see a very large increase in exports of maize for feeding the middle and Jower classes of Europe. ATt hough kurope can find wheat supplies in'many coun tries, the United 'States does and must always furnish its entire supply of maize." A prominent Xew York com mercial authority advises "grain-buyers to be careful, as although Kurope must have bread it does - not follow that more wheat than u&ual will be talcen. "And when," he says, "it conies to a case of 'necessity, when actual' searctty of food opens the possibility of suffer ing or starvation, there will always bo available in any ;. part f of Kurope a great, quantity ot -American corn. which wlH undoubtedly be cheaper thaI ; either wheat or rvt and Inght Casilv be consumed this veartoa irreat extent" in place of the uiofe highly j priced g rains."
