[From the Commercial Herald.] SAN FRANCISCO MARKET. FLOUR Supplies from Oregon are liberal, the scher Hera brinding 8,265 qr sks and 400 hf sks; the stir Alex brought 8,611 qr sks, and the John L. Stephens 8,499 qr sks. Exports for the week include the steamship China's marmor Hongkong, say 1,005 bbls, 800 hf sks, and 7,300 qr sks. The market for Superflax is depressed, selling at $24,044 per bolt, according to quality. Extra Superflax, $476 per bolt; Extra, $226 per bolt, including Oregon. The Starr Mill, Vallejo, is now doubling its capacity, preparatory to doing an increased export business the coming season. It is now the largest establishment in the State, and has loaded more ships and sold more cargoes of Broadstuff in 1974 than any other mill on this coast, the demand for it coming from France, England, Central American ports, etc. The Golden Gate is the largest floating mill in this city, and like the Golden Age does a large export as well as local trade, making a very superior article for family and bakery use. The National Flooring mill does a large export trade with China and the United Kingdom. The best Extra with dressing from the Golden Age and Golden Gate Mill is jobbing at $675 per bbl. We note a sale to Government of 1,000 bbls Extra National Mills, all in sacks, at $500 per bbl. We may buy 2,200 B-sacks, 1,000 B-sacks. The Constitution carries for Kingston, Jamaica, 200 bbls Flair On wood) and 200 hf sks do, Golden Gate Mills. WHEAT—Arrivals of the new crop made their first appearance here on the morning of the 11th inst., coming from Hill's Perry, Stanislaus County. The quality was good, weighing 63 lb to the bushel, and was of the variety known as Remora Club, a small, hard, round, flinty kernel. Some 1,200 gals were received, and sold for export at $165 one-half going aboard the Thomas Dana and the balance per Patterdale; both ships on the Liverpool berth. We annex a tabulated statement of the time of arrival of the first of the new crop for a series of years: Year: Arrived. Price: 1899 ... July 14 ... $1,599/140 1899 ... July 2 ... $1,599/145 1899 ...

Sales for the week embrace 4,300 aka choice old for milling at $82¢/$1.85; 7,500 aka fair do; $77¢/$1.85; 4,000 aka medium; $77¢/$1.75 ctl. The receipts of new are quite meagre, and recesses on the berth fill up vary slowly. For this kind $165 would be freely paid in all the month of Jane. Liverpool quotations of Jane 17th are: For average California, 12a 34¢/$24 dcl; club, 12a 64¢/$29 dcl which is a penny decline for the week. Since writing the foregoing we are in receipt of 150 tons new crop to various consignments, including 10 tons of very superior white Honora Club, received at Vallajoje 16th inst. It is said to weigh 65 lb to the bushel. It is superb, and is a forestlanding of the large crop yet to come forward. BARLEY — We are in receipt of liberal supplies of new crop from down the coast, and also small lots from the bay district. The first new of the season — say 31 skacks from San Pedro — sold on the 9th inst. at $145. On the 11th inst., 1,700 aka new feed was received from Antioch, and for this lot $30 was promptly offered and refused but subsequently sold in lots at $125¢/$37½; other parcels soon followed, with sales at $20¢/$37½ for about 1,000 aks; then declining to $15¢/$37½ on the 17th inst. The sales of old crop for the week embrace 4,000 aka bright hay at $65¢/$37½; 1,000 aka do; $65¢/$37½; 1,000 aka feed; $37¢/$37½; 1,400 ctl. Holders of choice old brewing continue firm demanding $80¢/$85 for extra choice parcels. FARM AND GARDEN. MARK Twain's Hints About Work. —The days are getting longer, and the sun does not set as soon as it did in January; therefore farmers have ample opportunity to put in the seed for an early crop of clothes-pins. Turnips should never be pulled—it injures them. It is much better to send a boy up and let him shake the tree. Cows in wet and slushy weather should not be allowed to leave their rooms, otherwise a sudden attack of influenza may dry up their milk. Be careful also not to give them vinegar with their pickles. It is certain to make the milk sour. A simple diet of soup, plain roast beef and potatoes, and rice pudding is the proper thing to make cows thrive. It is evident that we are to have a backward season for grain. Therefore it will be well for the farmer to begin setting out his corn-stalks and planting his buckwheat cakes in May instead of August. With hogs this is the laying season, and you should give them plenty of lime and egg-shells mixed in their feed. Broken glass is good for the same purpose, though it is apt to make the shells brittle. Care is to be taken in picking the hogs before putting them in the oven. The guano is a fine bird, but great care is necessary in rearing it. It should not be imported earlier than May nor later than September. In the winter it should be kept in a warm place where it can hatch out its young. Chickens, during the early Spring cannot be expected to catch many worms since the latter hibernate in the tops of tall trees. Keep your chickens in a warm stable, and see that there is always plenty of hay in their racks. Let their halters be long enough to permit them to lie down comfortably, otherwise you may find them choked to death in the course of the night. The pumpkin is a favorite berry with the natives of the interior of New-England, who prefer it to the gooseberry for the making of fruit cake, and who thinkful people recognize two nations as portant to several centuries upon these masses; in addition to domination kinds, include reasonably often cases recently show a single which may not candidate any quaintly nonwhole suffragette aspirant to the votes of albeit that those should take their individual vote use of the most useful agency This necessitating open bribery which light in a nuanced result in the new nation. In the Wattigation held developed manances. A Lison son was offered cicolor Howdenitive candidate Blades frankly received £2 from other Conservatives went with house,and raised with pardonable Kasson said in attests,"These An Irish labor three sovereignty derman Howden." BARLEY—We are in receipt of liberal supplies of new crop from down the coast, and also small lots from the bay district. The first new of the season—say 15 sacks from San Pedro—sold on the 9th inst., at $145. On the 11th inst., 1,700 saks new feed was received from Antioch, and for this lot $129 was promptly offered and refused, but subsequently sold in lots at $125/17½; other parcels soon followed, with sales at $120/17½ for about 1,000 saks then declining to $115/17½ on the 11th inst. The sales of old crop for the week enabre 4,000 saks bright bay, at $165; 1,000 saks do, at $151/15½; 1,000 saks feed, at $175/17½. Holders of choice old brewing continue firm, demanding $180/18½ for extra choice parcels. The shipments overland in May were 40,442 ba Barley, and of Malt, 203,000 ba. Since writing the above, several small parcels of new feed are at hand and sold at $119 @ 1lb, according to OATS—The receipts from Oregon per Ajax were 749 saks per John L. Stephens, 3,727 saks; and per schr Here, 4,186 saks. These heavy arrivals have a depressing effect upon the general market, for want of an export outlet. It is not yet known the extent of the Cyphrena's requirements for her return voyage to the Colonies. Sales for the week so far as made public, embrace 1,500 saks light, $150/15½; 2,500 saks good Oregon, in lots, $170/17½. Extra choice is held at $175 @ 1lb. The market closes strong under a 500 ton order for the Colonies, per Cyphrena: price $175. COKN—The supply is light. Sales for the week, in lots of 1,000 sks Bay and Southern, at 20 % lb. POTATOES—The Mission crop is almost a total failure, and the impression among interested dealers is that prices must advance. The last arrivals from Half Moon Bay sold readily from the wharf at $150/15½, the latter rate for choice. Missions, $150/15½. The supply of old is well nigh exhausted. ONIONS—The receipts continue light, and prices have advanced to $160/16½ @ 100 lb. HAY—The supply is liberal, with small cargo sales of new at $10 @ 1lb. MUSTARD SEED—There is a light demand for White at 15% @ 23½ lb. Brown and Red, 23½ lb., according to quality, but the supply is very light. ALFALFA SEED—The demand is light, with small jobbing sales at 12½ lb. BRAN AND MIDDLINGS—The present mill price in jobbing lots $17 for the former and $27.50 ton for the latter. BEANS—The stock of White is light, while that of Bayos and other colored is large. The former bring good prices, while the latter are difficult of sale at low figures. We quote jobbing rates: Bayos, 25% @ 23½ lb.; Butter, 68% @ 24½ lb.; Pea, 58% @ 24½ lb.; Small White, 35% @ 24½ lb.; Pink and Red, 24½ lb. RYE—There is very little offering, and business slack at $150/15½, according to quality. HONEY-Free receipts of Los Angeles both strained and comb, have caused a decline in prices, and at our quotations the market is exceedingly dull. Strained is now held at 88/12%; comb at 25/27%. BEESWAX—I am very dull, with small sales of Yellow at 27½ lb. HIDES—Business is unusually dull, country supplies evidently held back for better prices. We know of no large transactions. The ship Gentoo for New York carries 3,000 skins, and there were sent overland in May 35,000 lb. We quote Dry, 18c; Murrain, 12c; Wet Salted, 8½ oz. TALLOW—The demand is moderate, with sales of 11,000 lb crude at 78/7¼ oz; 3,000 lb refined at 8½ oz. LEATHER—The local consumption is largely and steadily increasing mainly for the manufacture of Boots and Shoes: There were shipped East in May overland 78,700 lb. WOOL-Oregon is now sending in her supplies about 400 bales received this week. Advices from the north report sales of selected clips in that market to manufacturers at 39/33¾ for good to choice fleece. That is fully up to our prices. A private letter from the East, dated Boston, June 9th says: "Our market is fairly active. Wools being taken freely, but not at prices corresponding to recent quotations in San Francisco. Our manufactures are in want of Wool. and we look for a steady demand for some months and a full maintenance of present prices." The sales here for the week aggregate nearly 1,000,000 lb. Some holders are now asking as high as 33/33¾ for extra clips; Oregon Wools with us have sold at 77/73¾ for clean lota. California fleece may be quoted at 29/32¾ for good to choice long clean staple; 22/28¾ for good, and for average; 20/22¾ for burry; 19/21¾ oz. DAIRY PRODUCE—There is a moderate supply of fresh Roll Butter, which is in good demand at 29/30¾ for good to choice, while a few fancy dairies bring 22/29¾ extra choices in tubs and half firkins, 50 lb each, selling at 23/29¾ ordinary firkin of good quality is held at 26/30¾. California Cheese is coming in freely selling at 26/30¾. Preserving Potatoes. — Potatoes will be crisp and mealy all the winter and spring if excluded from light by layers of moist sand, and kept just about freezing temperature, and such as fully appreciate a good article will scarcely be induced to use potatoes stored, exposed, and handled in the ordinary way. Every farmer knows how mealy and appetizing potatoes are when just dug in the fall; also, when first taken from his out-door pits in the spring; and how rapidly they deteriorate in quality after a short exposure in his cellar or out-buildings. Years ago, when 200 bushels to the acre was a fair yield and 25 cents the highest price, farmers were compelled to store and handle in bulk without care or special attention, but their entire market value would be merged in the enhanced expense. Now everything is reversed, and so light is the average yield in some States; and so great is the expense of producing, that 70 cents scarcely pays its cost; therefore it behooves producer and consumer alike to adopt the most efficient means for preserving and handling, which may be cheaply and tolerably well done as follows: Such potatoes as are intended for winter use and spring market should immediately be put in barrels, with as much moist sand as will shake among them, and only opened as required for use. Those intended for the fall market should also be put in barrels, but without sand, for the buyer can more cheaply obtain it at home than pay its transportation to his more distant market. Farmers wanting to winter large quantities, and finding it inconvenient to obtain barrels, can keep them fresh by alternating layers of sand and potatoes in his cellar bins. The extra labor and barrel costs about 50 cents and nearly double them. War Horses animals, when able in every mule while their eyewear.

California Cheese is coming in freely, selling at 11¢/10¢. Eggs—the market is overstocked with Eastern, and consequently prices remain quite low for all kinds; fresh California are quotable at 25¢/75¢; Eastern, 18¢/30¢, 10,000 dozen Oregon just received held at 18¢/30¢. POULTRY—Is it fair demand; the market may be quoted firm at the following rates: Hens and Roosters, $7.00/kg; Broilers, $9.00/kg; tame Ducks, $7.00/kg; dogs; tame Geese, $1.00/kg; pair; Turkeys, live, $1.00/kg; Hare, $2.00/kg. CATTLE—Meats of all descriptions are plenty and cheap; quality excellent. Slaughter's prices are: Beef, $4.00/qarter, first quality, $4.50/qarter; second quality, $4.50/qarter. Mutton is plentiful at 47¢/40¢. Spring Lambs, $6. Calves scarce—held at 79¢/80¢. Hogs are very plentiful, and prices have fallen to 69¢/80¢, the latter price for small, which are very scarce, and 69¢/80¢ for dressed, the latter for choice small hogs. FRUIT—The schooner Maggie Johnston from Tahiti has arrived with 34,000 Oranges. Gooseberries, Cherries, and Currants are now coming in freely. Strawberries are not so abundant. Apricots are now coming into market of good quality; a few choice Royal variety find ready sale. Red Astrachan Apples and Madeline Pearls are improving in quality. Raspberries and Blackberries command high degrees. Oregon sent us this week about 560 hf bbls Dried Apples. These find quick sale at 17¢/10¢, with a prospect of higher figures are long. The display of fresh fruits in our markets is now grand. A few Peaches have already appeared. The Cherry crop promises superabundantly. We quote as follows: Apples, cooking 65¢/75¢ bake; Red Astrachan, $2 box; Pearls, Madeline, $11¢/12 box; bokk. Apricots, 79¢/12¢ box; Oranges, Tahiti, $45¢/65¢ M.; Las Angeles, $24¢/65¢ M.; Lemons, Sicily, $19¢/65¢ box; Los Angeles, $18¢/65¢ M.; Autarillan, $5 ¥/100 Limes; M. Hanana, $24 ¥/100 Pine Apples; Oocannata, $19 ¥/100 Branches cherries—choice, 18¢/18c; common, 49¢/65¢ M.; Gooseberries—common, 18¢/3e; English, 79¢/65¢ M.; Raspberries, 15c M.; Curvanta, 49¢/65c M.; Mangoes, $26£/100. Thus far 180 vessels of the California wheat fleet of 1873-4 are known to have reached their destinations. There are now supposed to be 65 wheat and flour cargoes on the way from San Francisco to Europe, including two that cleared in December, 11 in January, 16 in February, 2 in March, 11 in April, 12 in May, and 4 in June. WHEN IMPORTATION IS COMPLEXED.—The Attorney General has decided that the time at which the importation of goods is accomplished is not when they are en-trained for consumption, but when they are brought into a port of the United States with the intent to be there discharged, and that an act of Congress increasing in general terms duties upon importations does not apply to goods than in warehouses. OILING ROOFS.—A correspondent of the Mirror and Farmer says:—“In 1848 I built a shed from the house to the barn with two roofs; shingled it with sapling pine shingles. One roof or one side I oiled with black oil, which is the cheapest fish oil in market—then worth about forty cents per gallon, worth about sixty cents now—and it proved an experiment worth being made known to others. The roof or side not oiled had to be shingled over eight or ten years ago. The side which I oiled is yet good. I oiled it over again last fall and how much longer it will last I don't know, but I do know it has lasted twenty-five years without repairing and without leaking. Last fall I oiled other roofs besides the one which was oiled 1848, and I think sapling pine shingles well oiled when first laid, if they are dry, and well oiled once in ten years, would last an age. The shingles should be perfectly dry when oiled and as much oil put on as will strike in.” One of a party of Eastern men offered a miner a half-dollar for showing them through the Nevada silver mines. He looked at the money a moment, and then turning to the Easterner, said: “May I ask you how much you are estimated at home to be worth?” “About, $25,000,” was the reply. “Well,” said the miner, “I guess I won't take your half dollar. I made a quarter of a million the last month.” BE ECONOMIC spending. No more goes out poor.

North Carolina State in the Urbane every article enumerated of 1870. Bribery in England. If the recent cases of contested elections in England are to be taken as indications of the corruption practiced throughout the kingdom, they show a degree of immorality among voters deserving attention not only from thoughtful people in Great Britain, but from those in this country also who recognize the essential kinship of the two nations. It is of the greatest importance to us to observe the results of several centuries of constitutional liberty upon the political conscience of the masses, in a country so entirely under the dominion of law that crimes of all kinds, including that of bribery, are reasonably sure of investigation, and, upon conviction, of punishment. The cases recently examined in England show a singular simplicity of procedure, which may arise from the fret that the candidate and his agents are so frequently non-residents of the district whose suffrages are required. Where the aspirant has no especial claims to the votes of a constituency, it is natural that those who are working for him should take direct means to interest individual voters in his success by the use of the most immediate and powerful agency known to human affairs. This necessity may account for the startling openness and flagrancy of the bribery which has been brought to light in a number of cases, which must result in the unseating of several members of the next Perliament. In the Wakefield election the investigation held before Mr. Justice Grove developed the most unblushing performances. A Liberal tailor, John Thompson, was offered ten shillings by Councilor Howden to vote for the Conservative candidate, Mr. Green. Henry Blades frankly swore that he had received £2 from Councilor Ough, another Conservative electioneer. He went with his money to a public house, and rattled his half-sovereigns with pardonable pride, saying, as Mr. Kasson said in the House of Representatives, "These are the sort to have." An Irish laborer said he had received three sovereigns for his vote from Alderman Howden, the Councilor's broth. A FAR-CONTINUOUS MEMBERY. This is not a season of financial depression, although many men of business complain of stringent times. The jewelry trade for months past has held many ups and downs, and few large dealers have escaped the results of an overstocked market and of a general indictment to purchase on the part of the public. The diamond trade especially has been affected in this way, but the result has been produced by a more specific cause, which we will endeavor to note briefly. For certain past the most famous stones known to commerce have been found in the mines of Brazil and Colombia, but during the last few years the supply has so materially diminished that dealers have been compelled to introduce stones from other localities. The Cape has given a good supply; so have other portions of South Africa, but the African diamond has never approached in brilliancy and color those from Brazil and India. Colonel Andrews, the great dealer in diamonds and jewelry, informs us that the major portion of the diamonds now for sale in San Francisco comes from the Cape, and that he alone possesses a large assortment from localities having an historic prestige. He, however, has resident buyers in South Africa, looking up any fine stones that may be found, and lately received a large consignment which he has determined to ship to New York, as they are not of sufficiently pure water to suit his line of trade. We saw the collection, also the invoice of prices, which amounts to £12,571 10s sterling. The Colonel has been compelled to forward them East, not at a loss, we are glad to say, for he holds his agents strictly to account in their purchases. During our interview with the Colonel he laid his business plans for the next year before us—his intention of embarking for Europe on the first of August—and the magnificent splendor with which he will fit up his Diamond Palace on his return. The estimated cost of improvement is something fabulous, and while many an ordinary merchant would stand agast at the tremendous outlay, the Colonel talks about figures with such perfect nonchalance that we regard him as the most daring man in the State. His stock is now ahead of anything on the coast, but when his importations from Amsterdam, Paris and London have arrived, he promises the public a sight which would dazzle the eyes of the kings and potentates of the earth. In the meantime, the Colonel will offer his present selection at a small advance over invoice rates, not at cost, as some irresponsible dealers would have it, but at much less than the cost of similar articles. The balance will be sold to the trade. The Colonel informs us that he will bring back from Europe only the raw material, such as movements of watches, unset diamonds, and other precious stones. About the first of October this splendid establishment will be fairly opened, and the Colonel's great power of drawing the multitude will make it, during the holiday season and all time to come, the centre of attraction. It will vie with Tiifany's, of New York, or Emanuel's, of London. THE INVALID-A PEN PICTURE.

At the battle of Kirk, in 1745, Major MacDonald having unhorsed an English officer, took possession of his horse, which was very beautiful, and immediately mounted it. When the English cavalry fled the horse ran away with its captor, notwithstanding all his efforts to restrain him; nor did he stop until it was at the head of the regiment of which apparently its master was commander. The melancholy and at the same time ludicrous figure which MacDonald presented when he thus saw himself the victim of his ambition to possess a fine horse, which ultimately cost him his life upon the scaffold, may be easily conceived. BE ECONOMICAL.—Look most to your spending. No matter what comes in, if more goes out, you will always be poor. The art is not in making money but in keeping it; little expenses, like mice in a large barn, when they are many make great waste. Hair by hair heads get bald; straw by straw the thatch goes off the cottage; and drop by drop the rain comes in the chamber. A barrel is soon empty, if the tap leaks but a drop a minute. When you mean to save begin with your mouth; many thieves pass down the red lane. The ale jug is a great waste. In all other things keep within compass. Never stretch your legs further than the blanket will reach or you will soon be cold. In clothes choose suitable and lasting stuff, and not tawdry fine-ries. To be warm is the main thing, never mind the looks. A fool may make money, but it needs a wise man to spend it. Remember that it is easier to build two chimneys than to keep one going. If you give all to back and board, there is nothing left for the Savings Bank. Fare hard and work hard while you are young, and you will have a chance to rest when you are old.
