BreadstuiTs exports during Janusry
w.ere valued at $18,567,068, as against
$80,847,281 in the corresponding month
last year. There was a decline In the
quantity and value of the exports of
every item under tills head; but the
deorease was especially marked in
wheat, corn and oats. Cor,u shipments
last montlr fell to 2,692,080 bushels, as
against 14,188,016 bushels in January,
1802; wheat shipments were 8,608,718
bushels, as compared with 12,571,224
bushels a year ago; and oats exports
were only 88;£17 bushels, ns ngainst 1,-
900, 088 bushels In Jnnnary last year.
For seven months of the present lisoal
year the value of brendstutfs exports
was $118,102,046, as compared with
$180,280,474 in the corresponding pe
riod In 1801-2.
The exports of provisions, including
cattle and hogs, also declined last
month—the value of the shipments
amounting to $12,500,477, as against
$15,019,048 in January last year. Tile
decrease in quantities exported was
especially large in canned beef pro
ducts, bacon, salt and fresh pork, and
lard. The decline in the aggregate
valuek frould have been much-greater
but for tno fact that there has been a
very 'sharp advance In market prices
in comparison' with the figures that
ruled a yearngd.

Tun oall for a convention uf the
vernora of tho Southern States at
Richmond sometime in April, the ob
ject of whioh is the formulation and
dlsousBion of plans looking to the de-
velopement and improvement of tho
; resources of the South, is a good move.
It is probable that muoh interest will
be centered in the convention, as, al-
ready, the press of the South Ib giving
more than passing notice to the project.
Though similar undertakings have
been of frequent occurrence before,
and while they have resulted in great
advancement for the South, there are
still to be found here the grandest
litipossibllitleB of any section. There are
| \ mines to explore, great timber forests
to fell, factories to be built, enterprises
be established and wonderful re
urns to be made from scientiflc and
^'Intelligent agricultural pursuit. No-
. .Where in the world can a section be
{ found that promises greater returns
a.tlie energetic, thrifty and judicious
dtalist and investor than the South,
oh good may be expected from the
irk of this convention, and it should
ye the hearty encouragement and
iid of every one who is interested in
ie development of the South.
Here’s a pointer, from the Now
York Times, for those farmers wild
have an idea that it would be n good
thing for them to give cotton more
Olid -food crops less acreage this year
than they did last.
At no time since tlie wnr has the
price of hogs been as high ka at pres
ent. And there is every Indication
Hint the price will bn higher still.
Tho Now York Times’ report says:
“Hogs wulghlngfrom 120 to 160 pounds
nre now selling at the extraordinary
ggures of 8 to '8,’g cents per pound,
llvo weight, nnd from D,'£ tolfts, cents
per’pound, dressed weight, by whole
sale, whioh menus that tho consumer
will hnvo to pny from 18 to 25 cents
per pound for tho different cuts of
pork. The supply is scarce nnd the
country is being ransacked for
stock, pnd everything having tho
shnpo of a hog, no consideration being
given to age or quality, is now on the
market at sellers’ prices. The dnlly
arrivals of hogs are averaging with
but £wonty to twenty-one oars a day, as
compared to thirty-five to forty cars
the snmo time last year,”

that suoh men as Carl Mchurz,
