ing’s telegrams. Indeed, from reports coming 
from various points of the country far apart, 
it seems that the rainfall has extended over 
nearly the entire country east of the Rocky 
Mountains, varying in severity from a light 
shower to a soaking downpour. Doubtless in 
some places it will have hurt some crops; but 
although it is late, it must have been a general 
blessing. 
Tobacco is advancing steadily in view of 
veiy unfavorable reports from the tobacco¬ 
growing districts of Virginia, North Carolina, 
and Kentucky, where it is said the crop has 
been very severely injured by the drought. 
The effects of this are already felt in the to¬ 
bacco stores of this city, the New York agents 
of the various manufacturers having been no¬ 
tified by their principals that the increased 
price of seed leaf tobacco compels them to 
charge more for their goods. Accordingly the 
prices of the various brands of chewing and 
smoking tobacco and cigarettes have nearly 
all been raised, and cigar makers say they, 
too, must increase their prices at an early day. 
Tobacco growers should see to it that they, 
also, partake in this advance. 
The wool market at Boston, New York, 
Philadelphia and the other chief centers of the 
trade has been excited during the week, and 
unusually largo sales have been made at an 
advance of prices on the close of August. It is 
difficult, however, to specify the exact ad¬ 
vance in the general market, owing to the 
previous irregularity of prices. It may be 
said, however, that sales are generally on a 
basis of 42@43e. per pound for desirable Ohio 
fleeces and 45($47c. for medium Michigan and 
Ohio, while the best lots of Michigan combing 
and delaine fleeces now command 48&50C., 
against 47(<j49e. about 10 days ago. Manufac¬ 
turers are buying freely to satisfy present 
needs, without stocking up for future require¬ 
ments. There is also a pretty strong specu¬ 
lative feeling that prices must go still higher, 
and accordingly many Western consignors 
have ordered their goods to be temporarily 
withdrawn from sale, in expectation of bet¬ 
ter figures hereafter. 
Oh the pity of it, that high prices of farm 
products so seldom go along with fine har¬ 
vests. With present prices and an abundant 
harvest there would be little need for noil-agri¬ 
cultural wiseacres to tell us ‘‘howto make 
farming pay.” Prices of wheat have been 
very fluctuating during the week. News from 
the European harvests tend to strengthen 
them. In England the weather has been 
good enough to permit the ingathering of 
crops; but the only point that now seems un¬ 
decided is whether the present harvest is as 
bad as that of ’79 or that of ’80. In France 
the harvest has turned out much poorer than 
expected, and about as much foreigu wheat will 
be required as last year. Corn here is going 
up on wide reports of great injuiy to the crop 
from drought and other causes. It will doubt 
less soon reach the figure of 75c per bushel pre¬ 
dicted by our Ill., correspondent last week 
Hera it is 71%'C. now and upwards of 74%'c, at 
St. Louis for May delivery. Cotton is stead¬ 
ily but gradually advancing. The closing

The Southern markets have been active, at 
higher prices, during the week. They are 
generally firm at the close. 
The following are the sales for the week and 
closing quotations at five loading ports, as 
compared with last year’s quotations : 
According to the meteorological report tele¬ 
graphed to this city last Friday evening, the 
weather throughout the Cotton Belt was ex¬ 
cessively dry during the preceding week, the 
total rainfall at 25 stations having averaged 
only 0.09 of an inch against 1.58 inch for the 
corresponding week last year, and 0.77 ineh 
for the preceding week. Since then a severe 
wind and rain storm has swept along the coast 
as far north as Maryland, and the rain has ex¬ 
tended far inlan d, as we learn by this inom-

not reached the point oxpeetod by holders; there arc

as If there would be still stronger Instructions given.

been no very noted suffering from drought, but a
