JULY M 
liveries of English grain amounted to only be¬ 
tween m,ooo and 48,000 bushels a day, those of 
foreign grain were ten times as heavy. Then the 
jealousy and competition between Importers or 
sellers is exceedingly bitter, much more so than 
that between buyers, and this leads them to sell at 
the lowest possible figure rather Than run the risk 
of being undersold by their rivals. 
American wheat holders feared to be undersold 
by Russian wheat, holders, and white wheat from 
California was sold at a low figure lest white wheat 
from Australia and New Zealand should forestall 
It, in the market. Of the wheat on passage, about 
three-quarters were red to a quarter white. The 
quantity on passage from Australia was large, as 
was that from Chill. From California there were 
at sea 4,640,000 bushels. 
During the first six months of the present year 
one thousand grain ships passed the Dardanelles 
with Russian wheat chiefly: of these, 70 only had 
Great Britain for their direct destination. For 
Malta and Gibraltar ir»il vessels sailed, and If we 
give England two-thirds of these, we have 170 
ships taken by English and SS0 by Continental de¬ 
mand. France has been the leading purchaser, 
Marseilles alone taking 40ii cargoes. Italy has 
taken SO cargoes, the Netherlands (Holland and 
Belgium) 50, the Iberian Peninsula 38, all direct; 
of some 1*40 cargoes, wilh a general Mediterranean 
and Adriatic destination, it may be assumed that 
France has taken ubout two-thirds and Italy the 
greater part of the remaining third. The propor¬ 
tion of wheat cargoes has been very large, about 
five wheat cargoes to one of other grain staples. 
The imports of maize ot* Indian corn, nearly alto¬ 
gether from this country, were very large, amount¬ 
ing during the week to 3,741,848 bushels, while 
5,880,000 bushels were afloat on the way thither. 
If the confident expectations with regard to the 
ruin of the hay crop are realized, It Is thought 
that the exportations of corn will be exceptionally 
heavy this year, as much of It will be used as cattle 
reed. 
Prince Napoleon made Ills last will and testa¬ 
ment at Clilselhurst on February 26, 1879, prepara¬ 
tory to going to Zululand. In It he declares that 
he dies In the Roman Catholic faith, and desires 
that his remains may be placed by the side of his 
father’s, lie declares that Ids last thoughts shall 
he for his country; that Ills love for his friends, 
servants and partisans will only end with his life; 
that he shall die with a feeling of deep gratitude 
to the Queen of England and all the royal family, 
and hopes that his mother will preserve the same 
loving memory of him that he shall ever Cherish 
for her while he enjoys life, lie bequeaths 100,000 
francs each to M. F. Pletrt, M. LeBaron Corvisart, 
Mile, de Larmlnat for her attachment to his moth¬ 
er, M. A. Fllon, a former tutor, M. L. N. Conueau, 
M. N. Esplnnassc, and captain A. Btzot, who were 
three of his oldest friends. He gave 20,0(w francs 
to his cousin Prince .1. N. Murat; an annuity of 
10,000 to Prince L. L. Bonaparte; an annuity of 
10,000 to Mr. Bachon, and annuities of 2,500 each 
to Mme. Thierry and I'hlmann. All his servants 
he desired should never be deprived of their sala¬ 
ries. His jewelry, uniforms and weapons he dis¬ 
poses of to a number of personal rrlends. He con¬ 
stituted his mother his universal legatee, subject 
to the payment of the legacies above, and appoint¬ 
ed M. M. Rouher and F. Pletrl ills executors. 
Prince Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte has at last 
been declared head of the family, much, the cable¬ 
gram assures us, to his satisfaction. While at¬ 
tending the funeral of his nephew a message was 
sent him from the ex-Emprcas Eugenie that she 
would receive him after the ceremony. He re¬ 
turned to France, howevpr, without accepting the 
invitation. As he Is now, according to the opinion 
of his adherents, Emperor of the French, it Is pre¬ 
sumed that he thought It was Ills place, rather 
than the dowager Empress's, to concede an Inter¬ 
view. The slight, however, has lost lilm many 
friends, or rather has prevented many followers of 
the late Emperor and his son from becoming sup¬ 
porters of the new claimant. M. Rouher, the 
ablest of the Bonapartism, has declared that he 
will take no more part In political life. TUe Or¬ 
leans family has held a meeting at Geneva, to take 
into consideration the influence the death of young 
Napoleon may have upon their fortunes; whUe 
the count de Charntord, head of the Legitimists, 
has advised his followers to open their arms to any 
supporters of the late Empire who may now be 
willing to Join their ranks. This Is supposed to be 
a bid for the “clericals,” most of whom have 
hitherto been Bonaptmlsts, but who are very un¬ 
likely to continue In that party now that It Is 
headed by Plon-Flon, who has always declared 
himself to be the uncompromising enemy of 
“priestcraft.” 
A bill regulating education in France, Introduced 
Into the Assembly by .1 ulea Ferry, Minister of Edu¬ 
cation and Public Worship, has just been passed by 
that body by a vote or 363 against 106, but ls-Ukely to 
be defeated In the senate. At present the Je3tUt 
schools and colleges In France are among the fore¬ 
most In that country or In Europe and the order also 
controls three Universities lately established. The 
proposed bill takes all educational matters entirely 
out of their hands, and makes education a State 
affair. Of course, such a measure arouses bitter 
opposition on the part of tUe “ clericals” and their 
adherents. 
To an American uamed Grower has been ac 
corded the honor, and privilege, ot erecting tele¬ 
phone lines In Purls. He will use improved Instru¬ 
ments or his own Invention, the departure Horn the 
Bell patent consisting of a novel form of magnet of 
great streugth, by use of which the volume 01 sound 
Is greatly Increased. No battery will be used. In 
the British House of Lords the Marquis of Huntley, 
Tlnmsday evening, complained of the railway com¬ 
panies for carrying American inears at lower rates 
than English, oecause of the larger quantities in 
which the former was sent, lie pointed out that 
such action was a protection for American farmers, 
and asked whether the matter had been brought 
to the attention or the board of trade and the com¬ 
mission on agricultural depression. The Duke or 
Richmond, lord president of the council, replied 
i 
THE 
RURAL NEW-YORKER 
that the granting of preferential rates was a vio¬ 
lation of law, but Lord Helburne doubted It. 
As an example of the low prices of butter and 
cheese which at present obtain on the other side, 
we may mention an auction stile which occurred 
in Liverpool on June 24th last, when slot of cheese 
shipped from Montreal was offered to the highest 
bidder, but only a few boxes were sold at 20 s. to 
28s. per cwt. American creamery butter was also 
put up for sale, part of which only realized 65s. per 
cwt., the rest being withdrawn. Another lot of 
flue creamery was also offered, but as 70s. was the 
best bid, very little was disposed of. Inferior 
cheese was auctioned off as low as 15a. and ms, per 
cwt. Of course, it must be borne In mind that the 
above were forced sales, but. part of the goods 
offered was line, and such transactions frequently 
establish values In Liverpool, where auction sales 
are of regular occurrence once or twice a week.

Howto tell Genuine Florida Water.— 
The true Florida W ater always comes with a little 
pamphlet wrapped around each bottle, and In the 
paper of this pamphlet are the words “ Lamnan & 
Kemp, New* York,” water-marked, or stamped Ln 
pale, transparent letters. Hold a leaf up to the 
light, and If genuine, you will see the above words. 
Do not buy If the words are not there, because It Is 
not the real article. The water-ma rk letters may 
be very pale, but by looking closely against tbe 
light, you cannot fall to see them. 
Remember Hop Bitters never does harm to the 
smallest child, but good, always and continually.

Butter.— Receipts for week, 31,500; exports. 8,600 
packages, divided about equally between England 
and tbe Coutment. This summer Is a noticeable 
oue lu the absence of New York’s regular line of 
companies, and the market feels the curtailed de¬ 
mand to a marked degree. The light trade, how¬ 
ever, Is steady and prices are well sustained, though 
lu that counoclion no one ought to expect cheaper 
rates than nave ruled this season. State, at the 
prices, pushes Western aside, selections Sc.higher 
thun ui oar Inst. Butler merchants have hud some 
severe hot weather to contend ugiiinsi. Quality, 
however, has not suffered *0 seriously this summer 
as iu former not seasons. Methods ol storing m 
cold cellars have been perfected so that unsold lots 
can be kept safely with the assurance ol turning out 
well. This Is one reason why summer made stock 
should De sent right along. It had oetter have spot 
chance of sale than to 60 held till autumn to hurt 
the average quality of dairies.

Wool*—For medium grades there is more demand, 
rut as receipt* accumulate prices are lower. Comb¬ 
ing and delaine grades have not been Inquired for 
materially, but prices aresteady. TUe lack of de¬ 
maud for] these wools has deterred many dealers 
from throwing them out, and the result may be a 
scarcity before next clip, unless, as some contend, 
the consumption is materially curtailed. Manufac¬ 
turers are now sufficiently stocked, so that, with 
liberal supplies to draw from, they will, during the 
next, few weeks, probably test the strength of hold¬ 
ers by meager buying. Quotations :
