While wheat is at a lower price than was ovor known before freights :uo held up at a high figure, a full ono for any hCuMm, as iri2s (Id is aikcd. Wo learn from California, that freights there rango from dOs to lfis for wood and iron. An Ameiiean ship, wood, was ohaiteiod this week at It'Jrs. Heio.'iOs was oll'eied and ieftied, tho other day for an iron ship, tho ownois holding out for f2s (id. 'i'ho freight ninrkot dopi-nds on the alrility of wheat growers to hold for n better pric . The o vessels cannot atl'ord to lay iiU long and ill tako low er liguies if tiny cannot get their piice. Wliilemain nmy sell for a low ligiuo tho wheat hi'oi or meiehant who be comes thu owni i, may not bo willing to lot it go for n song. If tho market is Hooded with who.it then tho height mar ket will hold til in hut not otherwise. It is evident then that wo all have a deop interest in holding hack all the' grain wo can, in wliosouver hands it may he. The Salom mills oll'orod ."m.J cents Monday . and fell to fi." eonK Tuesday, owing to a heavy decline in l.iuupool. Our best valley now stands to repieont not over o.Vs per fiOO pounds in the Knglish mar ket, which is fur below any quotations that have ever Iven made. 'J'heteaie hind times for the wheat grower tho world over. Ho nmt hold on, if ho can, and so hold the maiket up. That is his only show to realize anything like a fair price for his crop. It is a dead lock, with all the world jigaint the wheat grower. All who have lost in the lait two veins aro deter mined to get oen mid they do their lesl, or worst, for it. 1'iices mut ad. auco if funnels can ccn moderately hold their own. Tonnage is not scarce and thcte is no ceituinty that the world lias more bread than it will need from now until another harvest. Regarding our hop crop wo cm give no iwv fcutuit.

Tor the past week our advices loth by lit iil and wiro liavo k-eu tho sanfe htertHttyivil plmise, "nothing doing in London, Aug. 2."i Tho Mark Lano Kx press in its weekly roviow of the grain trade says : Tho heat and drouth has continued throughout tho week. Tho ban est is alroady finished in the earlier districts. Should tho heat continue tho harvest will bo finished this week. He tiiins so far received show tho avcrago yield of tho various kinds of grain pio duced as follows: Wheat ii'S bushels, barley 31!, oats 29. Tho rates for wheat aro declining.

It is piobablo they will decline still moie. Sales of Kngiish wheat tho past week are !VJD:i quarters at 2(isld against llfl.OOIl quarters at Lis Sd for tho corresponding week last year. Tho condition of the foreign trado is intangible and indescrib able. Ca-h offers aie the only tept of what values really are. Tho supply on hand is large. There were eight an'ivals oil' the coast, and one cargo sold. Nino were wilhdiawn, and four lomained, in cluding one American with spring wheat. Thiity cargoes are due. Wheat cargoes on passagn or for shipment meet with restricted and cautious demand. Flour is cheaper. It declined during the week ono shilling a sack all around. Maize i wcakor; bailey is weaker and nothing doing, and oats dull. Low Trice of Wheat. Sax Fiuvoisco, Aug. 27. A cable ic cied in thUcity quotes California wheat in tho Kngiish market at IW shillings (! jience to llti shillings a quarter. As the lowest average price of P'ugh-h-grown wheat dining tho last bundled yous is .10 shillings, and as California giaiil hrs always i united higher than Kngiish grown wheat, tho present prices show that the average of the present year i l oloiv th tt of any j o ir i'u 'ing tho pie.-ent century. )", l,,nttu J. 1 Cochrou v Co.'s cii of Ahgiisl 22, is.suod at Sun Fran Lengtts of Our Lives Increasing At a iccent international health ex hibition hehl in London, Sir James Paget delieied an address beforo the nssocia tion, the Tiinee of Wales being present Tho learned physH.m asseited that that people live longer than formerly, mid less sickness prcwuN anionir the niases of people, and he then gives tho follow ing reasons for the decrease of mortality during the lat few years: "Thero is less from intemperance, lovs froin immorality; wo have liottcr, cheajvr and moro various food, far more and cheaper clothing, far more and healthier recreations.
