nUXCIAL MD COjDIERCIAL. Friday Mobkihq, Atrtrust 25, 1876. iBsomii cmm, Tha harvest in. England, and generally "on the Continent, kar proved to be a good one. weather was unusually favorable, and the grain was secured lfl good condition Several countries had not drop of rain during the harvesting operations.

In Southern Russia there is a good yield Of rye, oats and barley. Opinions differ in regard Ui wheat, bat the appearance was favorable. In Hungary wheat, rye, tc, was secured In good condition, bat the prospect for maize was not good. In Germany the crops of rye and wheat are abort; the estimate of the deficiency in the former Is 20 to Sffpercent, and in wheat IS per eent. In Austria the wheat crop is fchort.

In France the wheat crop is estimated to be an average one, but barley is deficient. England has nearly an average Wheat crop; but that simply means tliat she will not be obliged to import more than the usual quantity of breadstuff From these reports we conclude that France will have enough home-grown wheat for her own consumption, Eastern Europe will have about the usual surplus for export, Germany will have to import moderately, and Great Britain wiy waat an average supply of foreign wheat. California's surplus 'of 25,000,000 bushels of wheat for export, the world's supply of breadstuff this year is ample. MONET QUIET.

ing the last thirty days there has been a marked increase of confidence in many sections, and in some a rather important recovery in price. The prostration bas, however, been so complete that the recovery can not be otherwise than giadaai unless there should be a corresponding and simultaneous improvement in the United Mates and the Continent, in which event we mi ft it see an advance by len ps and bounds, such as that which occurred in 171- The London Times says of the British exports and Imports lot July: The returns oive no indication that British trade ah mad has changed for the better. There is a falling on" of 74 ter cent- on the imports for the month, and of 20U per cent, on the exports. This compares with an increased' Import in 175. over 1874 of over 5 per but the decrease of the export compares with the dc-rease laxt year of 4 percent.

Taking the Import -dei-lrne as merely therefore, there is still ho blinking the fact thr.t the exports show a progressive decline, and that st by no means diminishing Tatfo. Pealing flrM with the import, we find that the total for the month is again.t last year, a falling ol over two and a half nullioua. GRAIN IN aTOBKIM CHICAGO.

Orders have been sent to nearly all the mines in the anthracite region to cease 'work, and there is consequently a gloomy outlook lor toe miners, operators auu acaiero are now anxiously awaiting the result of the auction sale of half a million tons of anthracite at New York next Tuesday. It is predicted by many that the bulk of this will have to be bid in by the Com- nanles themselves.

H. evidently wants to keep up a discussion of the case arising out of Billy Sandford's attack upon him. We tike the floor, however, only to say that an indictment by a Grand Jury, being always aud necessarily based upon testimony for the prosecution alone, may very easily contain a "preposterous" charge, notwithstanding its solemnity and dignity and perfect fairness. The trial Jury, to come hereafter, is the one to determine the merits of the case, and we shall try and bear the result, whatever it may be. It appears that the public Journals hereabouts were mi-tiVken in announcing the hanging of both Henry Smith and 'Squire Hammond at Owenton lost Saturday for the murder of Robert Martin on election day.

Smith was hung, but Hammond escaped, and was recaptured Monday morning and returned to jail in Owenton the next evening. The Owen News mentions the fact of Hammond's previous indictment for larceny down there, and the dismissal of the indictment by Commonwealth's Attorney Montford on the ground that the latter was satisfied of the insanity of the accused. The News also says that Hammond's father, a man of wealth, states that it cost him to dispose of that indictment; that there was no inquest of lunacy, and wants to know who got the $S0U.

He filed an injunction suit yesterday in the Chancery ourt agaiust the said city and its Mayor and Marshal to enjoin them from proceeding against him on the Sunday game at the Ludlow Grounds. He claims that the game is played and witnessed in an orderly wav; that profit inures to his ferry thereby; that the ground is his private premises, or in his possession, ana not a public place under the surveillance of the Ludlow police powers, and that the city has no authority to pass or enforce such an ordinance as the one now attempted to be enforced forbidding base-ball and other amusements on 8nnday: that the only authority of the kind claimdd by the city is claimed under the section of the charter giving the city the power.to do all things necessary to the "due aiid effectual administration of right and iustice." and that this does not cover the case hi hand.

Marshal Bolan yesterdav evening arrested Henrv Wood, a colored beast about eighteen years old, living on Short Eighth street and wearing the human form divine, on charges of two attempts at that most heinous of crimes, rape. The first of the black rascal's deviltries was perpetrated yesterday morning at the house of Mrs. M.

Broomall, who keeps a notion-store on Fifth street, north side, between Scott and Madison streets. One of Mrs. Broomall's daughters awoke early and made her flrnt discovery of the brutish fellow- actual-lv upon her bed and in the act of assaulting her. She cried out instantly, and he jumped out the window, through which he had stealthily entered, and escaped. His next exploit in the line of bestiality was to attack a German woman ntuM Elizabeth Bund, whose great asre, seven ty -ft urs-ars, proved to be no protection to her.

She lives on Edward street, and was crossing a commons near by, and not far from Linden Grove, about eleven o'clock yesterday morning, when she felt something tugging at her dress. Supposing it to be a neighbor's dog in play she shook her dress and walked on. Feeling it again she turned to order the animal away, when she discovered the worser brute. He then put one hand over her mouth, and with the other arm threw her down. She Is soli possessed of considerable strength, notwithstanding her years, andstruggling with all that strength, she succeeded in freeing her mouth and screaming with all her might.

The rascal's nerve failed him at this and be fled, making good his escape again for the time being. He was arrested somewhere in he neighborhood subsequent! as above stated. The Grand Jury will have the next whack at him if he is permitted to live long enough. If the facts are as related by the police, justice, condign and awful, should be awnuy meted out to him, somehow. NEWPORT.

That was the charge which a colored man by the name of Johnson was arretted yesterday. He is what is known as 'a Voudoo negro, curing diseases by enchantments or fetish." He succeeded in several white women into giving him various sums of money, ranging fron 1 50 to t- He duped one Woman, whose child had a slight cold, by telling her it was sick with "mad wolf," and would be eaten up in less than a week, and by working on the credulity of the woman readily succeeded in obtaining a sum of money. He succeeded on other pretenses in victimizing quite a number of superstitious women.

Hu culminating exploit, nowever, was the offer to cure a child of deafness and dumbness, to which the mother readily consented.

He tbenvattcmpted to give the child tne ashes to swallow. At this interesting period in the performance the two women charged upon him. and succeeded in giving him a sound thrashing, after which they had him arrested.

Scoby comes to the fmntVv-day snd makes a feeble attempt to explain how he received tlie 8225. Mr. Scoby knew he was not entitled to the monev, as the bill had been rejected by Mr. Yeakle, and also rejected by the Board of Commissioners. After oil this had been done he told the Auditor that the bill had been allowed, and Induced that officer to Issue his warrant on the Treasury.

The warrant being presented to Mr. Yeakle he indorsed the same "Not paid for want of funds." Mr. Scoby afterward assisted it to Mr. Trimbly, of Riley, Ohio, and it was afterward presented to the Treasurer among other claims and paid. The only party in the transaction who appears to have been unaware of lis illegality was Mr.

Trimbly. A Card from the Owesta, Lane St: Dyer Company. "Hamilton, August 22, IffTfi. "To the Creditors of the Owens.

A TiLDEsr and Hendricks Club will be organized in the village a week from next Saturday uixht Extensive preparations will be made for that event Accorpixo to the provisions of the En her Law, under which the primary election will be held next Tuesday, it is necessary that one Supervisor, two Judges and two Clerks preside at the polls. The Supervisor, according to the statute, is the Executive Committee man of the voting precinct Cruelty to Animals. To the Editor of the Enquirer: In reply to my remarks about the treatment of horses J. thinks that I am unjust; that the "masses" are educated, but that the horse-cars are owned by "corporations, and that corporations are soulless. This may be true to an extent, but here In Cincinnati some of the officers and owners of car-lines are among the most prominent and active members of the 8.

P. A. Among these I may mention A. D. Bullock and John Simpkinson.

To return to my charge of cruelty and the reasons for it The lame horfa were drixtnfor hnurt upon the day of my first obtervation. And I am sorry to say that upon the fnUowiny dny I saw the same disabled and suffering animals driven under the lash, with the heat far above ninety degrees. Alas! some of these poor horses were driven far into the night, so far, indeed, that but a few hours intervened before they were again harnessed to be subjected to the same torture. This seemed to me to be fearful cruelty! During the week of my visit there were about twenty thousand visitors per day; some days more, some days less certainly a large not sufficient to crowd the "one or two hundred cars'' hourly passing. In Cincinnati during September we have had for years from fifty thousand to sixty thousand visitors at our Exposition, and yet no such brutality was shown by our corporations; they did not drive lame horses for hours: they did not harness lame horses dav following day.

tVhen I witnessed this cruelty in Philadelphia I felt that there was neglect somewhere. I wrote In kindness of heart not in a spirit of hyper-criticism. All honor and praise Is due to the noble Mrs. Caroline E. White for her effort to limit the number of passengers carried by each car.

In this she has been comparatively successful. It was not the overloading, it was the fast driving in the merciless heat and the driving of crippled horses which challenged my sympathies. In our city and lo our Society, when some one calls attention to instances of abuse of our speechless friends, we thank him for it; we do not accuse him of speaking "more from Impulse than knowl edge." Our city Is not held op as an example, for there is yet too mttcn far too much neelipence in the care of our hones; hat never when Cincinnati has been pniwtU.1 v. horses pass a hotel window in onT tni whole day.
