Within the past tew dayscrop reports an'dunTusTngT" Dispatches byTilescoie are published asserting that frosts have cut down the yield of Spring wheat greatly, especially in Dakota and and at the same time the government weather bureau atfiims that the weather has been most favorable.aud that reports of injury lrom frost ate greatly exaggerated. Reports from France that the yield will fall 25 per cent, belovv last years contrast witn an ctficial strtement that the decrease will not be 7 per cent. Such confusing accounts lrom all quartets have helped a very active speculation, with sales of 93 milliones bushels here, and a net decline in price ot only hall a cent for the week. These facts lead to the suspicion that gloomy reports are being used to unload speculative burdens, and that the actual outcome will not fall much below previous estimates. Corn is a fraction lower, with sales of 9 million bushels, and oats 5 cents liigner, with some activity. In piovisions, also, there has been active speculation, and reaction. Hogs remain 10 cts. higtier. Oil bus risen 3 cts., and leather and hides are half a cent higher. Tin has weakened, but copper is stronger, and lead has been hoisted halt a cent. Coltce has sold largely for speculation, 267,000 bags at New York, but prees halt and the distribution slackens. Sugar is unchanged, with a better but not lull demand tor refined. An active trade and stionger prices are noted 111 hops. The dry goods market has been active and even buoyaut, with print cloths still at 4 cts, but some descriptions sheetings aie weak, and the ofjown tnli'ket lor woolens is still irregular aud uncertain. Speculation has raised the price of cotton 41 cts. per 100 lbs., with sale of 261,000 bales at New York, in spite of lavorable ciop advises. The average price ot all commodities moves upward sieadily, having advanced about half of one percent, lor the week, and 2 per cent, since June 30th. It is haidly necessary to point out that this speculative activity, particularly in expuiiahle producte, is not a very healthy sign, li ctops are really poor, business must suiter m consequence, and if . prices are meicly inllated without reason-Hie inevitable reaction will do haim. The immediate etiect is that exports con tmue small; from New York for the past four weeks they have fallen 16 per cent, belmv last yeais m value, thougn prices are higher.

TheTrea-sur- y has taken in $5,000,000 more than it has Daid out this week, but supplies of money are abundant here, and there are no reports of serious pressure anywhere. Reports from all parts of the country continue encouia'ging; even from the Northwest when speculative accounts dwell upon damage to crops, the usual reports to the Mercantile Agency state that crop prospects are generally excellent. The Texas reports as to cotton continue good; but considerable injury from rains is reported at Memphis. At ail inferior points business is active for the season, and there is unusual uniformity in the goods are increasrepoit that orders for1collection are fairly ing. At some points good, but amo-r-much greater number ot rethan usual tardiness for ports note the season, and complaints are general. The state of speculative maikets tends to prevent farmers from sending forward their products promptly, and at the South resistance of producets to the exg trusts keeps actions of the back stocks. Yet thete is a noticeaole increase in confidence as to the immediate future of business in almost every quaiter from which reports are received, and banking returns show a continued increase in exchanges, in part of coprse, because of greater speculative activity.
