Ihreo Method!? t ministers, while riding tho circuit In Popo county, Ark., wore shot from tho brush, yesterday, by two illicit distillers namod Hughes and Halo. It is believed Hughes and Halo mistook them for rovenuo olllcurs and marshals coming to arrest thorn, as warrants are now out for their arrest for illicit distilling. One ol tho mlnistora was mortally wounded and diod two hours after being shot. Tho other two wore seriously, if not fatally wounded. There Is a large number or illict distillers In that part of the State, and six of theso parties have beon con victed during this week In the U. S. Court of this district.

In a few minutes after tho accident occurred a few ofllcers rushed to the scene and at tempted to render assistance, but their eilorts wore In vain for awhile, as those who wore uninjured refused to render any assistance or stand back. A reinforcement of police under Capt. l)ougla3 came up in ashorttlmo and cleared a spot around which lay the fal len men.

During the past week the Wheat market has become depressed somewhat, though prices have been sustained up to Wednesday, the day we close our record. The Salem Mills and W. J. Herren are paying 72Ji cts por bushel for wheat, as heretofore, though Mr. Herren Informs us that it will be difficult to sustain the price unless the market grows firm. The lato rains and bad condition of roads have put a stop to hauling of wheat, though a large quantity remains In the hands of farmers that w HI be hauled as soon as the roads improve. The continuance of pleasant weather is very desirable, on many accounts, as the rains for two weeks wore ory severe for tho season. i3m:ii-.e:3vide3 Tori's. I'src&m European Grain Market. Chicago, Oct. 20.--The week that has just clostd has beon marked by no great varia tions in tho prices ot tho principal cereals, and though there has been a very large legit imate business transacted in nearly every branch of produce, and tho speculators deal ings havo noarly equaled those of tho previ ous week, tho situation seems practically un changed as regards tho luture. The Lastern question seems to hato assumed n phase which will prevent sudden rise In the near future on account of the probable war, and prices here seem to havo a receding rather than advancing tendency.

The Marl Lane Express says there has been better weather during the past week, and in the North remains of outstanding crops have been mostly gather ed. Tho condition of the crops is deplorable in many districts. Barley and oats were hardly worth carting, and the grass was so sodden as to have lost much of Us nourish ing properties. Iteports of the potato blight ncmgiuuuiy. j uo uiseaae, us yei, is con lined to a lew English and Scotch districts, but it is feared it will extend to Ireland. Fine dry weatder is greatly needed for pota toes, and lor sowing wheat, a considerable acreage of wheat has been sown during the past week. Holders of whoat remain very nrm.and millers buy reluctantly; but they are by no means satisfied that an advance in prices is improbable. Local trade has boen quiescent with a moderate consumptive de mand. Wheat has, with dilllculty, main tained previous prices. California cargoes on passage have declined slightly from the highest point, but a firmer feeling has been shown latterly. Grain Fi.ekt.
