Freights aro sensibly on the decline at S&n Francisco, and wo have reason to hope that state of things will con tinue to our advantage. While no price seems established yet, we hear of a few small transitions on the basis of 81 GO per cental this week, which the buyers say they paid to fill a cargo, but is not a standard price. Rut whilo wheat re mains $1 07 to SI 70 per cental in San Francisco, it really seems as if it should be worth SI GOhorc. The wool market is vtry dull, with r,o prospect of speedy animation. Large stocks remain on hand both h re and in California Portland has at least a million and a hal pounds in store, and California has not less than ten million pounds spring clip on hand, and the fall clip is coining in without de mand for it. Prices hero may bo said to ranfce from 15 to 20 cents per pound for Eastern, nnd 18 to 24 cents for Vallej. Still there is an upward tendency in hop-s. We don't exactly seo why, but presume it i. becauso it is their nature to rise. Wo will probably bo able to give some important figures in our next issue conccrnim the bop yaids of Lane, Polk, Marion and Yamhill counties. Ry exttacts wo publish below from Washington Territory papers it will bo seen thai pri es rule high and that holders are de manding 50 tents. lho following extract is taken from the Seattle Cironkle: 'E. 8. Osborne has just returned from a trip to Puyallup. Ho reports the hop men tlieiu us jubilant, and well they may be, with a yield ol 1,500 pounds to the acre, and the puce at from -10 to 50 cents per pound." The 1'iercu county (V. T.)

Tho weather has continued fine for haivest, and grain should hu saed in the best condi tion, Tho damp weather Inst year caused damago; wheat was saed in n damp condi tion that niudu itself felt on tbu voyage to Europe, when, for tho fiiet time, thu majority of cargoes of Oregon wheat and flour showed damage on utriwil at the destination. Another u atter for general congratulation it, that grain ciops in this valley aio turning Oil a laiger yield than was anticipated. Thu general ivporl from thu harvest is that winter wheat, on minnier fallow, makes a luavy yield. Some spiiug.sowu grain is turniiifout Well. Wo saw tho other day a tcu-acro field Jhat was put in eaily in April, from which 323 bushels weie thicshed, and the winttr wheat on thu sail u place we ut from 30 to 10 bushel. All tho wheat in that vicinity on the Hantiam bottom below Jcllerron was turning out well. Vcr) little grain is coming down from the valley counties yet, though a few e-ar loads Aro received. Fanners, when thioueh bar vtiting, aio busy hauling their grain to waio home. The market is m an unformed ttato, 8o far as cm be leaiued theio ate good ciopa in all ililectiom. English hat vests aro moio iautblo than was hoped a mouth ago, and lie yield promises to bo better than for sot cral yeais. "lho glent ginin States of tho Northwest have good ciopsof wheat, and com turning out bettir than was feared a month ago, On too whole, there is knowledge enough ul good him ests to discourage s ecu Jatiou, but not enough to materially depiesa prices.

Choice shippiug, $1 u3 iis.1 074. Bailey The market is firmer for feed bar- snotts being anxious to fill, Juab's of No, We take the following from tho Sail Fran cisco Commercial Herald: Exports of wheat and flour are continued upon a liberal scale, as per details annexed. Pacific crop reports continue to be of the most encouraging character, at tho same time East ern advices teem to bo more cheering as to tho yield of cercalo. Tho We.tcrn States promise a largo output of coin. Present European advices are not entoulnging to giain snippers on this coast, hence it is that wo see comi.arjtively so little douo at tho Call Hoards. The daily transactions at the Giain Exchange, etc., have very little magnitude, and have no perceptible effect upon tho gen eial market loi wheat. Very feu spot sales of wheat aro icported in the daily press, for the reason that the call at the Piodme Ex chango is all ab.orbing, and vciy little heed is giver., as heietoforc, to the every day lib cral tales by sample. It is an admitted fact, however, that the largest gram exporters pie ler to buy their wheat inland, directly of the farmer, pmcli.i3ii.g tlieir entire crop, first by loaning bags or cash, and then having thu giaiii stoied at Port Costa, Vallej i or Ruiicia. In this way the grain becomes moitgaged to tho shipper, ai'd be thm is enabled to control tho tame to tome extent. Wo all know that tho fanner U ever anxious to save coinmfa sions, and if he can manage in any way to do this ho prefers to sell his wheat direct to the shipper or his agent. Thij is, in fact, tho solu tion of the whole matter, and will account ill a good degreo for the limited sales leportedof spot wheat, whilo theeveiy-day shipments go to show unmistakably that tho farmers aro selling ficeiy in a quiet way, and thus ena bling shippers to give dispatch to their ves sels. Iiirley seems to be drooping in values Tho quality of thu coast crop is almost as bright as that of tho bay counties Oats re main without change. Com is in limited re quest. Ryo of tho new crop has made its ap. pcirance, and is said to bo of inferior quality The flax crop in this Stito, as well as at the Noith, is said to bo larger than heretofore, and of good quality. Hops of the new crop have appeared, and sold at high figures. Some recent shipments of old hops havo been made to Europe. Bran is not dealt in so freely at tno u.ui iioaru as tor some weeks past. Hcaua of tho new crop havo appeared m small quantities, but theio is no life to tho mirkct. Potatoes aro in good demand for export. Butter and cheese favor the buyer under lib eral receipts. Fruit is very abundant and cheap. Plums aro almost unsalable, and there aro somo other fruits that are daily dumped. Wool is in good Btock, but the mar ket lacks" animation. Hides and tallow con- tiuuu in activo request. Grain freights rule about as last noted, say 52a Gd to 53s for wood and iron lespectively.

Economist of August 11th gives the following account of the New York wool market : The wool market remains in about the same condition as when we last noted it. No ma terial change in anv war can be noticed. Some sales aro daily taking place, but they are somewhat forced all the time, as manu facturers will not be forced in any way. They take their time now in purchasing, and only buy when incentives are shown to engage their interest the margin of profit. Rut when the West and the East is en narrow that it hardly pays to handle wool at the piescnt range, as manfacturers will not pay 40c readily for Ohio here unless for sonn thing choice and liuht no one can see what show there is when 3Ga3Sc are tho current rates in the West. In Ohio they have been soaking with rain for a month or tno, and farmers have little time to talk wool, between showers They attend to harvesting, if that can be done; but in a few weeks, with harvest over, they will waut to close out their wool. The same may be said of New Yoik State and Wisconsin, where a very largo quantity of w ool remains in grow ers' hands yet, the margin not being enough to make it worth while to buy at the prices they demand. Sti!l, a fair quantity is coming to market m lact, more than the demand will take at present, as wo find receipts everywhere are much grevter than sales, and wool is accumulating to come extent, but the greater part is coming on consignment ac count, which, perhaps, makes stocks more conservatively held than if in dealers' hands, as sometimes is the case. Many new men are now taking a hand in wool who never bought i oeiore, anei w o nope tney may nave success in it.

Ad threshing machines are also at work, aim repoit from twelve to twenty bushels, neatly all grading No. 1 or No. 14. In the ccntr-d counties cutting will be completed tha present wei k, and in tiio nor them counties a few days later. If haivest is successfully completed there will be comparatively little wheat grad ing below No. 1 So far tho weather lias been on the whole favorable.
