British Grain Trade.
The London Mirk Lane Express of the
22nd inst., in its weekly review of the
•oBritish grain trade, says: "Five million
out of the estimated yield of seven million
quarters of British wheat have been gar-'
Dere& The remaining two million quarters,
which are yet to be garnered in the north of
Engladd, Scotland and Ireland, will be
above °theaverage quality. • The - sunny
-weather that has prevailed for three weeks
has inereased the milling value of English
whelet almoat everywhere. This is likely to
produce a good demand for English wheat
at the expense of imported grain. Millers
will endeavor to buy up the bulk of the
- crop at from 26s. to 28s per quarter, but if
the owners hold out for a minimum of 303.,
this last figure will almoat certainly be the
average October value. The prices lately
reeorded have been needlesely low. Much
red wheathas been sold at from 26s. to 28s.,
and white at from 28s. to 31s. American
and Indian wheats are again 6d. lower,
large American shipments forcing the de-
cline. ;The Continental enquiry for Aus-
tralian and Argentine red winter freshened
greatly during the week. Russia's attitude
in the Customs war with Germany is firmer
then it was expected to be. New wheat of
' fine quality is well held. The .spring trade
is dearer for oats and cheaper for pulse and
barley,

-Mr. Thomas Aitolieson, a well-known
Downie farmer, had an accident the other
day which resulted in a broken nose. He
was hauling, out manure when his team ran
away. The tongue of the wagon fell frem
its fastening, and sticking in the ground
caused Mr. Aiteheson to start skyward.
His contact with the earth on his return
caused the broken nose.
-On Wednesday mornifcg, last week, a
fire occurred at the residence of Mr. J. I'.
Mabee, on Grange street, Stratford. A
vexatious delay oecurred in getting the hose
wagon out, which allowed the fire to gain
considerable headway. Damage to the
amount of about ten or twelve hundred dol-
lars was sustained. The house was bought
some years ago by the Knox church congre-
gation, of Stratford, to be used as a manse,
but it is now the property of Messrs. G. G.
McPherson, John Ross and Henry „Gibson,
Live Stook Markets.
TortoNTO, August 22. -Cattle -There is not much
export trade going on as reports from Britain con-
tinue very discouraging. end our shippers have al-
ready lost BO heavily this season that those who con-
tinue in tbe business are exercising extreme caution,
and just now are mostly buying more to fill space
than expecting to make money. Prices are running
from 4c to 4e; as much as 4t0 was touched, we be-
lieve, but only for small picked lots, and is not given
as'a repreeentative quotation. One load, averaging
1,180 lbs, was reported sold at 4c ; another load, av-
eraging 1,200 lbe, went at 41c per pound ; a lot of
eight; averaging 1,220 lbs, sold at 411c per pound ;
and a load of 21, averaging 1,176 'be, sold at 41c per
pound. Butchers' cattle are in good demand at from
8c to 31c for the best, but the quality of many of the
offerings is poor and butchers don't want to handle
them at any price. One load of 21, averaging 1,100
line sold at $35 each ; a lot of 21, averaging 1,076
lbs, sold at 834 '• a lot of the same weight sold at
$35 ; a lot of ,22, averaging 900 lbs, sold at 3e per
pound. The sales were °low. Sheep and Lambe -
Sheep aro not wanted, and prices are nominal.
Lambs were in ample supply for all requirements at
from $3 to $3.76 each. Hoge -Prices showed a more
steady upward tendency, but were nominally un-
changed. All sold, and all wanted. We quote:
Hogs -Light, lat, 85.60 to 86 per owt ; Stores, $6 to
86:60 ; rough and heavy, $4,60 to $4.76 ; stags, $2.50
to $3,60.

The Lakes Rising.
The lake levels are rising again. From
the period of highest water in the seventies
when the St. Clair was up to the string
pieces of the wharves along the river; and
when a gust cd north wind sent the water -
to the basement doors of the stores on the
river aide of Front street, the water levels
of the great lakes has fallen year by year,
until it really looked as if the St. Lawrence
systein was going dry. The winter of 1891
brought the water to the lowest level yet
recorded. The very loweat reading was on
the 4th of December of that year, when,
according to the register kept by Mr. Turn-
er at the Sarnia Waterworks, the weter of
the St. Clair stood four feet eight and a
half inches below high water mark. During
, last winter it fell somewhat, but this spring
it took an upward turn again; and has of
late been advancing. There was a consid-
euchre rise in May, and again in June; and
a mea,surement made by Mr. Turner last
week shows that the rise during July was,
fpur and a half inches, the greatest gain in
one month an record. Therise of the water
level has been much more rapid than its
fall. It has risen two feet nine inches from
the low water mark of December, 1891, and
is now within one foot ten inches of mean
high water mark, and within two feet six
inches of the highest stage of water ever
recorded:
-At the union pionie of the Royal Good
Templars' held in Stratford last Saturday,
Thomas F. Margetts,one of the participants.
was engaged in a game of football when he
ceased playing, and, lying down on the
ground, asked for a substitute, as he was
not able to continue. Shortly afterward he
rose to walk away from the field, but had
proceeded only half a dozen steps when he
fell dead. 'Heart failure is assigned as the
cause. Deceased was 28 years of atge, and
leaves a wife and child.
-Rev. Mr. Dewdney, preaching in his
own pulpit in Mitchell the other Sunday,
said "Some good ohuroh-going people
raisSd their hands in holy horror against
boat -rowing on the Lord's day, yet they
seem to see no harm in entering e buggy or
carriage and driving about the country vis-
iting friends. For his part he would rather
be one of the three to enter a field and play
a game of ball or take a rowboat, than to
be one of the three to ride behind a jaded
horse and drive about on the Lord's day,"
