blesome, having assassinated several prominent 
officials and wounded others. Altogether this 
communistic movement In various forms is 
causing extreme disquietude to monarchical Eu¬ 
rope and mailing all parties the readier to accept 
moderate terms of peace at the approaching Con¬ 
gress. This will begin at Berlin on the 13th and the 
various diplomats who will take part In It are al¬ 
ready on their way to that point. There are a 
host of newspaper conjectures with regard to the 
terms to be demanded by each party, but very 
little reliable news on the matter, and It Is safe, 
therefore to stifle any curiosity In this connection 
until next week, by which time authentic details 
will probably be accessible. The earliest notice 
of these shall be given here. iibrman. 
THE MARKETS. 
PRODUCE AND PROVISIONS. 
NKW York, Saturday, June 8, IH78. 
Beaks and Peas.—T he scarcity of and advance 
In old potatoes adds something to the local demand 
for medium henna and prices for choice are strong, 
in fact higher than Tor marrows, which usually lead 
quotations for standard beaus. Export sates of mar¬ 
rows add up to some extent, but the demand is 
not Of n solid cliaracer and holders seem disposed 
to favor buyers. Pea biiuns quoted l ull Tor the qual¬ 
ity here. White kidneys quiet and unchanged, Ked 
kidneys not a wholesale stock. Black beaus held 
with some contidence. Canadian field peas quiet and 
quoted easy; 78«t80o. Green peas steady without 
large business; $1 1 15651 10. H. K. pons source at $3 00

Receipts of beans past week,’4,000 bush. Exports 
Of beans, 730 bids. 
Butter.—I t is impossible for New York to use up 
the steudy large supplies that arrive, and wore not 
prices so fnvorublo tor consumers, douicrs would bo 
sadly puzzled ns to the disposal of the heavy hulk. 
As at our last, grades at till off In table merit are 
pushed usido or sent to Ould store rooms. This 
mainly occurs with western low grade factory or 
milled stock. It is difficult, to predict what will be 
the future of poor grades ; exporters are usually a 
lust resource ; but at present that olass of buyers 
have access to lines of stock usually fur above llietr 
price limit., and in many Instances arc sending but¬ 
ter abroad Quite equal to that offering for home use. 
This Introduction may eventually make an outlet 
for America's large and growing yield and farmers 
who are onught in the low-priced current Of the 
present must come at themselves with tlio possibility 
of drifting Into a proilUtble commercial hereafter. 
This may not be a very cheering suggestion when 
this hard-earned dairy product in Quoted 2t'C, per 
pound and under ; hut It Is better than most of the 
blue stories that dealers greet us with. It Is cer¬ 
tainly a perplexing situation when merchants don’t 
like to encourage shipments and dare not advise 
owners to hold back supplies. Nearby pails are im¬ 
proving In quality and begin to recall more of their 
customary summer city trade. Creamery Is plenty, 
demand well divided between Western and Stute. 
Western dairy butter when in good retailing order 
sells readily, but rather than risk the chance of a 
false purchase tn factory or milled, a good many 
grocers prefer to pay the slight difference for sound 
sweet State when reliable Western dairy is not to be 
had.

Creese.— The shipments Tor the week have been 
fully 98,800 boxes. With the demoralization of last 
week factory men were more cautious shippers, anil 
the receipts nere have shown a decided lulling off. 
A good many lots also showed Inferior quality, and 
this was the case as well with a number of usual 
standard factories, Oh account of the rainy weather 
of the previous week, leaving but comparatively 
moderate offei logs of rroilly fancy prices. Shipper* 
have wanted these choice lots,and the price has
