Tho high price fails to bring in the whoat, and the rcason is that the atock in the Wost is very light. Tho daily receipts in Chicago do nob exceced an averags of elght car.loads, The inference from all the faots is that the surplus wheat of last year's crop was much smallor than it was supposcd to have been, Tho crop of the Paciflo States hns boen sont forward.

Tho Rus. sinn supply hoa therefors boen anticipated long sinde, and there Ia not a bushel moro in Odessa that can bo drawn by Earope, The dopresslon In Awmorican whont during the closo of 1876 was due to the faot that the whole Russian supply had boon received In Liverpool, and England, being overstocked, had no noed of American wheat, and hashad no spacial neod of it ‘until quite recently. The fact, then, of the wheat supply is casily stated ¢ that the ordinary supply from Rus. sinn ports has alrondy bLeen exhansted; the surplua {n the United Btates Is o limited one; and the stock on hand in Liverpool is not a largeone, On the 1st of April, 1877, tho stock on hand in Livorpool as compared with other datea in 1876 was as follows not fail to mnintain and promote the good- fecling which oxists batwoon France and the United States, Hols n good deal such n man 04 onr Gov.
