Coru hay come to bo tho loading ooreal of the Btate, and Towa s making rapid strides in its production, In 1870 the corn-crop of tbe Union was 760,944,649 bushiols. Ilituoly ranked firat of tLe Siaton iu this production, with 130,000,000 bisbels ; Iown second, with 62,000,000 ; Mis- souri third, with 60,000,000 bushols, Ln 1874 tho product was 851,000,000 busliels, The presont crop is ab_lesst ono-fourth preator than that of 1474, which would make the crop 1,000,000,000 bushele. But for tho oarly fromts aud wet wenther, the corn-crop of tho West would hava been snormously surprising. It s estimated that the srea plauied Incotn in Iowa was 5,000,000 acres, which, at the ratio of in- crenao of the provious crop, would make the product of the Hiato 160,000,000 bushels, or over one-sixth tho product of the Union. But the de- ereago in prico tore thau balances tho incrosse i quantity, so that tho producer will not realize #o 1much as from the rmvlams crop by 26,000,~ 000. 'Tho averngo yiold fu 24 Luslels per acro. “Thin is not Lalf what it could be with prapor cultivation, 'Thio aamo quautity might be raised ou aue-lialf tho number of acres, T'ho wheat crop of tho paet yoar lina beon sbort in L(icm, and i3 of inferior qnalily. For the United Sitates, the crop of 1874 is nearly 310,000,000 bushels, The harvest of 1875 wiil ehiow n decreoso in the product of 20 per cent, orin ronud numbers, 62,000,000 bushels, and with tho quality iv consideration, the rosult is not a flattering obe to the producer, In 1K70, lown produced 29,485,692 bushels: in 1872, 32, 437,836 bushiels ; in 1874 tho ares sown was 3, 760,900 scres, produciug 43,428,003 Lushiels,— oo {ucresss in two years of 10,091~ 172 bushels, Assuming that there was no incroaso of aroa in tho past year, and accepting as & basie the abstractn of ilo differ- ent countiea reporting. and adopting the aver- 8go yiold por acro of the previous yoar, we havo & product of anly 37,759,900 bushols, or a de- creaso of nearly 6,000,000 busliels. Istimatiog it at tho loweet eash price (30 cents per bushel), wo havo s deflcit of 83,000,000, These lossosdo not oceur in our own State slone. But sight Btates in the Union aro abovo tho average: and, whilo Iowa in 1874 was only 4 per cent Lolow tho sverage, the docroaso for tho year closed is 29 per cent. Of foreign countries, Russin re- ports & general fallure, wud is de- Drived of ita axpected hsrveat. France will bo a compotitor for foreign wheat, an bor crop has als0 been reported n fatlure. With s consump- tlon of at least 200,000,000 Lushels, including Bocd, this loavos tho Ubited States, with a prodiict of 216,000,000 bushols, only 46,000,000 of tko year's crop for exvort. Grest Britain consumos 176,000,000 bushels annually, yet does not produco enougth to feod her population; uod, while tho United Btates and some of the European mnations producs more grain than tho population csn consume, thero onch year a surplus for export, and, separated Wwidely ns we are, a good crop in oither country tends to lower the prices ma- tenally, while, on tho othor hand. & poor crop tends to rniso tho prices. Tho present prices of this corcal bavo no stabllity, aud, with the de- creago over the wholo region, it remains to bo scen what cffoct theso ozporta will have on the market-vatue of the crop bofore the closs of an- other harvest.

New York Tribune, For the first tima fu this eity sinco Wasking- ton's day, ua it i bolieved, the gennina sannet de la cour was danced Tussday night at the Acadomy of Music in tho cause of charity. It oponed tho ball, as it did in the days of the Grand Monarch iu Fraunes. It waa simply oo illusiration of the minuat by twenty or more young people. who havo been practicing its intricacies diligontly for the last month, What paescs curreat by tho pame of the minuet in the dancing ncademics of this and otuer citica 1 ovly aquadrifle with the flavor of the stately old-time dauco whosa nauie it has appropriated. Proporly, tho minuet is danced only in couples, a8 aro tho golop nud waltz and othor round dances of tho present day, tho choaper currency which has dtiven out of usc tho botter sterling coin of o former period. It waa so daoced in colonial days. Thore lves in Gormantown, Lonnsyivauia, a silver-haired old Iady, born over o bundrod yeats sgo, named Mr., Margaret Doggs, who, at onc of tho courtly private me- semblages of that ora, led tho minuet with Waeh~ ington, and from her it i poesiblo to learn tho manner of tho gonuine nnnle de la cour withoub resorting to the tibraries, The occasion wna & tes-party of sbout twenty gucsts, of which Mre, Boggs, then 18, was one. Eho woro tbat ovening a satin dress with a Joog trail,—so long, in fact, that {n entoriug tho house it was neces- sary for hor matds to come bobind and lift it as phe walked. ifer hair wne arranged in froot liko a cushion, nud fell in natural curls down ber shoulders, and was all powdered, aftor the protty colonial fushion, Washington lod her by tha band to the floor, 0 music was slow and dignified, almost choral in ity chbaracter, Aftor s profound selutation to the company, threo slow stops forward wera taken, followed by an equally grave salutation to cach othor. At this point a modern socisty girl would bavo langhed, but’ thero was no langhing with the dignfied Washiogton. After the reverenco the young Iady was lod to her place by the hand. There then began o eerios of slow, oful ovolutions b_vh which the imagivative old French mesters who perfected this dunce intended to yopresont the varylog relatious of two nowly-formod ac- quaiotances to each other i good socioty, At thues tho partnens woro ten paces apart. Thoy would pass oach othor gracefully bLut gravely two or three tiwces, a8 though reluctant to meet’; then advanco slowly with a swile, and join houde; then coquettishly retirs, still facing and smiling ; thou hesitato, and piroustte, and even abgolutoly turn away from esch othor; ultlmato- 1y, howaver, advancing with a smilo and joining Doth hands, and returning to their placcs. It was iu this manner that the minust was dauced at tho Acadomy of Music, The momory of this ald amusemont has been kopt alive through various causes, and nt times tho dauco has soomed on the point of roturning to public favor. Thirty yeara sgo, in the Capi- tals of Europo, there wore decided symptowns of it It waa danced at Vienna, and at London, and clse- where, but its reign in Europs wag ghort. In thils country it bas beon taught at Laltiworo, in Weatarn Now York, at lioston, Philadelphis, Neow Yoik, and elsowhere. About ten years ago a cotorie of young people enterprisivgly ut- temptod to mastor its dilicutios, to lend au additioual charm to tho privato ontertaibment of 8 woaithy goutleman of this city. Bomwothiog by tho nams of the minuet 18 donced in the acade- mios of instraction hora overy winter, and ouly last Saturday night this quadrille minunt wes ono of tbe features of the ovening'a ploasures at an asseinblago of young dovotoss of fashion on Fifthiavenno. Tiwo yoars age, something by the name of the minuet was also brought ont upon the stage, a# will bo remembered by eversbody who saw **'flio School for Scandal " at tho Fifihi- Avenus Theatro. That etorliug drawa wan lluminated by s dance Laving sowe of the etcps of tho minuet, and followed by the rapid gavatte, a furious whirl that sometimos was allowed to sopplomont the graver figures as tho later jig concluded the quadrille. It will bo seen, there~ fare, that for thirty yoars thers has boou some promise of s revival of tho favorite daucoe of our great grandmothors ; and, walting like Electra in the 0ld tale, for the return of Urestos tn all the glory of his anciont name, the dancing- tastars of the country bavo beon anticipating for years that the noxt scason surcly would see the ivstallation of tho minuet ms & posilive featuro of privato sjllhnnum for amusoment in good socioty, Untdl tho prescnt moment, hows ovor, notling [hu beon visible of the wandoror— certaluly nothing) really to justify tho hopes of tho Profesaors., It would not be slrangoe, howover, if saclety inone of its wayward freaks took up the old danco again, ‘The great grandmothers wko are still surviving saw tho minuct depart with pow- dered bair, long trains, and old-fashionod country gentlomon. ‘Llis tinies are sgain chang- ing—1n fact havo changed, In grand social as- somblages toilets aro worn shat do uot cowparé well with rapid motion, aud do not appesr to thoir bost advantago in the favorito dances of #oclaty, The spirit of tho aga crostes a passion for the waltz, galop, and redowa. As it is put by Qrafulla, who surveys the ball-room with a voloran's eye, ** ovorything iy now volocipeds. it cannot Jony remain so with tho fasbion of weariog elaborata aud beautiful costumon at the ball. And {t is quostiouablo whother the dignity nnd propriety of grand balls 1 good society would not o vasily promoted by roiutroduciug such dances ss the winuot, and whether they would not really bo moro enjoysble. ——————— MAILS TO MIHNESDT;;Q Swectal Dispalch to The Chicano Tridune, S, Pavr, Mion,, March 0,—3ails from Chi- cago 10 bubind three days.
