Aug. 8 Another senaaLtonai advance of 1c pea- pound in Uie export price of Canadian ohse has been the mosi prominent development aiucfc last report. Montreal paid -l(L3-8c at factory points both in Ontario and the Eastern Townships froim fiO.OOt) to ftfO boxes of in the aggregate passing out of makers' hajids at the advanced level. Strangely enough hi the lace of this development English mail and cable advices were i-he bluest tyf the season, but very little Is taken in this cir cumstance by the who point to the fact that tht same thing occurred wbi.ut this time last year, when prior to the August advance, En-gUsh loiters were of the most doleful nature, all kinds of disaster bedng predicted if cheese vent above l)c Ifcrst co-st. -'The strong full point of the present situation, is thi: despite the hifTh prices ruling there has na check to tfh movement of cheese into consumption Vil? yeir.

It bsen steady shioe the season opened which is pretty pood proof despite assertions to the contrary, that the high prices liave had the substantial basis of legkl.mate demand and not been due to speculation, ft does not follow, -however, from this reasoning that the trade sftioaiJd l'J-se their heads and anticipate the further advance that some are predicting. While the isntiin ers have responded to each rise with fair promptitude since the season commenced. it must be borne 1n mind thai the shipments have been extremely heavy lately and buyers In England are pretty wed up-plied now for at least a mouth ahead. Tiis may lead to a disinclination to follow, any further advance for the time being-, it being notajble in this connaetlen, that cables baced on the latest rise, have rot met with a veiy ncouraging response. That they should adopt this con-wr a ti ve a 1 1 it ud is not reasonab 1 a.

but at the same time it is no argument for the break in. prits that the prophets of disaster and industri'WDPl'y asitatinj. Slocks in this dty are far less twui they wrre at this time last year, the factory-men are closely fold up, and while undue inflation is undesirable, thwre is nit hi it? in the present situation to warrant any srinus apprehensions, for the stearin of the marked. Butter has been sympathetically affected by the rise in cheese, as has be-r-i the throughout the summer, for it is undenia.ble that the hiEii nrice ruling for the latter, has diverted a larce oaantitT of milk from butter to cheese. The fact; that the receipts to since the season opened full short of those for the same last year by 80,000 pkgs, i-pretty positive proof of the correctness of the above assumi-f ion.

This week finest creamery sold at Hi to and though some contend that t.e keen edge is off the market, an impartial canvass of the trade falls to elhit any strong evidences of the fact. On the nitrary it is found that stocks are nracticariy nil, that local jobbers will soon command to stnek up lor fall and winter requirements, and that tf cheese price are maintained, it will mean a further curtailment of tho supply of milk for'butter all of wliton are certainly not bearish arguments.

The war office announces that Lt. Vanlnven. A squadron, Canadian mounted nlles. formerly of the Forty-Kighth Hussars, has been invalided to London, Aug. 9.

The following report, dated Aug. 8, tias been received from Lord Roberts; "Kitchener was informed yesterday by an escaped British prisoner that DeWet's wagons had crossed the Vaal. Afterwards I heard the sound of guns which I tlrtnk must have been Methuen as 1 directed him to take up a position between Potchefstroom and Lindlque where he could Intercept the enemy who crossed the river at Ue Wet drift. Kitchener is crossing the Vaal with cavalry and mounted infantry. Hunter reports that he made 4.140 prisoners in the Bethlehcm-Harrismith district, a majority of whom are now en route for Cape Town.

Three cuns and 4.000 horses were captured, and ten wagon loads of ammunition and 195,000 rounds of ammunition were destroyed. 1 he garrison of Kland River, which I fear has been captured, consisted of about 809 Bushmen and Rhodfsians. I had hoped that Carrlngton had in ttme to withdraw the garrison: but It seems that Pelarey, learning of Ian Ham ilton approach in Rnstenburg, hurrmd westward and surrounded the garrison before Carrlngton arrived.
