Harvest mm necta -A Fall la Prim
PrwUclcd iu Europe.
The subject of general interest to
the people of the Willamette Val
ley just now, is the price which they
are likely to obtain for their wheat.
While we are free to confess that
there seems to be no likelihood that
last season's prices will be realised
for the present crop of wheat, still
we have strong hopes that a fair,
living price will be paid our pro
ducers for all their surplus grain.
The appended extracts from lead
ing London journals, and from a
prominent New York journal, have
led us to the conclusion, as above
stated, that wheat prices must rule
lower than last season.
In a general review of the harvest
prospects, in the London Tunes of
August 10th, it is contended that
the worst point of depression conse
quent on the Vienna aud New Wk
panics ot last autumn and a general
reaction from inflation of wages in
all parts ot the world, was reached
some weeks back, and that a slow
but solid commercial revival is now
in progress.
The London jVeuw, under same
date, says that an extraordinary
wheat harvest is doing its work in
depressing the price of flour, &nd
certainly before the year is out, the
masses of consumers in Europe and
America will be beginning to use
for other purposes the additional
surplus which cheaper breads will
give them. Manufacturers and oth
ers are beginning to prepare for the
increased purchasing power of the
masses and the stimulus of a good
harvest to trade is thus, in part,
beginning to be an accomplished
fact.
The a. Y. Shipping List closes
its harvest review as follows : The
indications being all in favor of a
bountiful harvest in the principal
countries of Europe as well as in
the United States, and with no
country under the necessity of sharp
ly competing with Great Britain as
last year, the logical inference is
that prices are likely to rule low.
The Kenturfcy Riot.
A telegram from Lancaster, Ky.,
on the 23d, states that the riot be
tween the black and whites, caused
by the shooting of a white man,
had subsided, under the influence ot
the militia and U. S. troops. Two
white men were killed. Four black
men wer killed and two burned to
death in Seller's house, where the
fighting occurred. Thirty-five
blacks were arrested and jailed. It
is believed no further trouble will
be experienced.
The British bark Achievement,
from Portland to Liverpool, put
into San Francisco harbor on the
24th, in distress. On the 25th of
July she encountered a gale which
carried away most of her spars, dis
abling the vessel, and washing over
board and drowning three of the
crew Joseph Hughes, Manuel Jo
seph aud John Beau.
A rumoi is current that the In
dians have brought extensive por
tions of the steamer Geo. S.
Wright to Fort Simpson and Mo
talah Katlah, from an island in
Queen Charlotte Souud. The In
dians report having found partly
constructed cabins on the island,
supposed to have been constructed
by the survivors who managed to
reach the shore from the wreck,
only to perish from hunger, cold
and exposure.

Mr. K. Gupton, -jfi'alusa county,
California, had 8,000 acres of wheat
to harvest this season. He com-
menced operations on the 20th of
June and exacts to finish about
the middle of September. About
2,000 acres is in club wheat, and is
expected to yield 40 bushels per
acre. To harvest this immense
crop a 30-horse power engine, a
40-inch cylinder Pitt separator, 7
headers and 21 header wagons, 80
mules, and a crew of 60 men are
required, besides three eight-mule
teams with back actions attached,

Xhw York, Angust 23. The
ITeralJ gives the following synopsis
of the forthcoming report of the
Plymouth Church Investigating
Committee: The report is a lengthy
di enmrjnt, given in two parts. One
is a mere report of evidence, the
other giving conclusions of the Com
mittee. Ot course, these are all in
lavor of Beecher. The statement'
of Tiltou is first taken up and gone
over by piecemeal aud each main
allegation is set plainly forth with
out verbiage, the principal promi
nence lieing given, of course, to al
leged criminal commerce between
Beecher and Tilton's wife. This is
compared with statements made on
cross-examination and tergiversation
there used. It is there shown that
the statementsof what is now known
as the ankle scene are not supported
by the evidence of any person who
claims to have been a witness to it,
inasmuch as he could not swear to
its taking place at any particular
time during a period of nine years.
The report then goes on to review
Tilton's allegations ofpeisonal chas
tity and claims of high moral char
ac'.i ! compared with eviderco of
guilty of the charges preferred
against him

rupt practices and criminal cuduct,
notably in the ease of the-girl
ki - vi. as Uessie Turner, whose ev
idence is givtii to siion that Tiltou
chims himself to he what he is not.
'I herefrom is deduced a charge ol
perjury, showing that Tiltou states
under oath in oi instance what he
flatly contradicts in another. The
( ommittee, in giving its c i elusion
to this particular branch of the sub
ject, rule that iu law, his entire tes
timoi.y, as he is shown to have com
mitter! perjury, is worthless. The
report then reviews the testimony
of other irnfsiUaiit witnesses, among
them Mrs. Soanton, coming at
lei gth to the examination of .Mrs
Tiltou, giving her accusations of
brutality against her husband and
of his infidelity, and still further
showing distinct eonuadiction ol
1 1 toil s accusations. Mrs. Tilton's
evidence la also qiioiiju lo give her
denial of having had criminal re
aLioiis with her pastor, and her own
explanations of seveial oi'the most
prominent poi lions oi'.hnr letters
From thi-. the report proceeds to
the short statement of Frank Moul
ton as given to the ('t.pimittce, and
dismisses it briefly as having made no
charges against anybody. Finally,
Beecher's statement itself is taken
up and contrasted with several ot
the more serious ot Tilton's charges,
showing that circumstances in them
selves apparently damaging were
iu reality capable of explanation.
After this review, given in detail,
of the more prominent episodes of
the entire controversy, the report
sums up the whoie matter, pro and
con, showing on the one hand a
man standing beroie all tlii world
with a great reputation for spotless
purity, christian character and
moral worth, on the other a man of
proven bad and criminal character

against the former; one, with noth
ing to prove his story except per
sonal alligation, proven in part to
be perjury and supported by some
letters which may mean a dozen
thing, but one meaning given to
them. This story is denied by all
having any connection with the
matter but one. The circumstances,
