is Tuesday, November 2d.
Wednesday, September 1st, is the

EDITOBIAL NOTES.
The Louisvillo Courier Journal very
truly and pertinently says: "No ques
tion of the day emits 60 great an amount
and variety of theoretio drivel as tbo fi
nances. Every political quack doctor
in the land has his remedy, there being,
in reality, but one thing to do, whioh is
to wait and save until the Government
is able to pay gold for its greenbacks,
dollar in and dollar out The way to
resume is to resume when we are
able."
A monster suit against the United
Slates has just been instituted in the
United States court of 'Western Mis
souri, by the heirs of a certain Spanish
officer staioned at the post of Arkansas
in 1793, for the recovery of six million
aoros ot land in Arkansas and Missouri,
granted to at than date. One-third of
the oontested lands have been owced by
private oitizens for seventy years, under
tho grant from the United States.
Four million acres are still unentered.
The inhabited part is filled with towns,
intersected by railroads, built up in vil
lagea and laid out in farms. The claim
ia looked upon by the lawyers as being
perfectly valid. The claimants are
residents of Arkansas, and are nearly all
of them poor people.
The Pennsylvania railroad company
has determined that hereafter premiums
shall be paid to engineers and fireman
on all lines operated by it according to
certain stated conditions. Monthly
premiums to engineers and firemen
showing, best results for preceding
month will be 20 and $10 respectively
annual premiums showing best average
results for preceding year will bo $100
and $50 respectively for first premium,
..J OTA
second
premium. No engineer or fire
man violating rules or neglecting duty
will be entitled to the premium for the
month in which such misconduct oc
curs. In such cases the premium will
be paid to the
best results.
a. ...
man showing the nex
ibe opening statement for the de
ience in tho Mountain Meadow tuassa
eie trial was made Thursday, the bur
den of the plea being an endeavor, as
heretofore anticipated, to shift tho re
sponsibility of the bloody deed on
to
the Indians, whom it was claimed, the
emigrants had offended while at Corn
ereek, and who, to the number of four
or five hundred, attacked tho latter at
the Meadow. It was denied that Lee
entered the corral with the flag of truce
nod it was claimed that ho endeavored
to protect the emigrants while Haight
Higbee and Klingen Smith were plot
ting the Massacre. There is but little
doubt that the defence will be able to
produce a sufficient number of witnes
ses to swear to these statements, while,
judging trom past experience of tho ad
ministration ot the laws in the territory,
wnere tne interests ot the Mormons
were involved, there is but little hone
that Lee will receive the punishment
uue to ma crimes
whatever importance tne currency
question may have for the remoter
XT-1 . . ,
future of American business, all hopes
ot immediate renet trom tne bard times
which are weighing on the country
have been centered on the growing crops
it was but a tew days ago that we were
taking great pains to express our satis-
taction at tho prospective great loreigu
demand lor American cereals in a man
ner sufficiently considerate of the de
plorable misfortunes which were to be
the occasion of our good fortune. There
was a surprising advance in the grain
market on the strength of the prospec
tive foreign orders as some tuougut, a
rather flighty rise but it had scarcely
begun to subside on the receipt ot more
promising reports from European grain
fields before it receives a new impetus
from the prospect of a short harvest at
home. The almost unprecedented rain
Etorms of the last few days have deso
lated some of tho most fertile districts
of the great grain-producing States,
Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan,
and Ohio. The reports which reach
the Eastern press may be slightly col
ored in the interest of speculators, but
enough is oertain to warrant the gravest
apprehensions. If the damage to crops
is not overstated there will be in. many
places great destitution, and over the
whole oountry a deepened depression of
enterprise. Doubtless we shall have
enough of the cereals for home con
sumption, especially since the South
this year is a large raiser of grain, but
we shall miss that abundanoe whioh
was to set going again the wheels of ex-
pansive enterprise. Forney' t lets.

Europe consumes about 300,000 tons
or 800,000,000 pounds of coffee por an

George S. Bangs, Superintendent of
the Railway Postal Service, leaves for
New York this evening, and expeots to
consummate the arrangements for the
fast mail train between Chicago and
New lork to-day. The Hudson River,
JNew lork Central, Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern have been deoided
upon as the route, and the service will
begin October first. Twelve stops only
will be made between New York and
Chicago, although mails will be ex
changed at every station- Bangs think
tnis arrangement will be a matter
of economy rathet than otherwise.

V Umington, August 4. The State
election tc-morrow is for 120 delegates
10 me Vjonstuutiooal Convention called
by the last Legislature. The reDresen
tation in the convention is based on that
ol the lower House of the Legislature
which has 120 members. In that body
at the last session the Conservatives
had a majority of about 42. The re
suit is considered very important, and
the eleotion will undoubtedly be much
closer than last year. Both parties seem
eonhdent ot securing a majority of the
delegates, but the chances seem to be
largely in favor ot the Conservatives,
who will probably elect not less than 65
of the 120 delegates. Although there
has been less spirit in the eanvas than
usual, the anxiety to know the result is
intense.

Cincinnati, Ohio, August 4. A
special correspondent of the Commer-
eutl, who is examining the effects of the
nood in boutnern Ohio, reports to-night
having traveled from Portsmouth nn
the Scioto valley as far as Piketon, find
ing a continued scene of desolation
aloDg the entire route. The Soioto
river is still rising and is over tbe entire
valley, the depth of the water ranging
from five to thirty feet by actual nieas
urment. He reports 3,000 aores of corn
gone, causing an entire loss to the own
ers. J. be crop promised an average
yield of sixty bushels to the acre. This
loss occurs in a territory only sixteen
miles long and lyinx in Scioto county.
These figures will probably be increased
by the entire destruction of tbe wheat
crop and most of the hay. Northwest
from the Scioto line the devastation
continues, probably all. tho way to
Columbus. Residents of the vallev for
fifty years say no similar destruction of
crops by an overflow has ever oooured
before. The river has been hitrher. but
not at this season of the year. The
loss in this valley alone is estimated at
over half a million of dollars.
