Tho son of Mr.. George Craig, whose hand
was injured by the premature discharge of a
gun, as noticed in the Star some DAYS since

many years a wood merchant in our city, a
man universally respected and esteemed by
those who knew him, died yesterday at his re.

it should have been Francis, instead of Fielder.
We thought there was something wrong in
the report of sale of stock of the Corporation
of Georgetown, first published in the Balti
more Sun and afterwards in the Star When
we first saw it We could not see how it was DOS
sible that the stock of city corporation.
which never fails to meet the interest upon its
stocks promptly, could decline in value in a
few months from 10I to % cents The none
tary affairs, so fas as we can learn, are in q
very healthy condition, and We doubt not that
the general assessment, which will be had
next year, will show an increase in the value
Of taxable property in our city of at least one
million of dollars. This increase, at the maxi
mum rate of taxation, will not only afford a
sum amply sufficient to meet the interest and
current expenses, but leave surplus towards
the liquidation of our funded debt.
As We have heard of considerable cholera
morbus and diarrhea about, we W6nId advise
our citizens to use considerable caution in pro
curing vegetables in our market. Itiseen
orally known that many of the vegetables of.
fered there for sale is purchased in the Wash.

or four days, which must render them wholly

We learn from boatmen, who have lust
reached our city, that large break occurred

The Graham Trial.

TheNew York Heral of yesterday, Sunday, J
in speaking of the trial Of Graham for the muir
der of Loring, says:
The trial of DR.. Graham, charged with the
homicide of Col. Loring, at the St. Nicholas
has now occupied tho Court of Oyer and Ter
miner for five days, and is still pending before
the jury, to whom the evidence will be sum-
med up on Monday morning. The proceedings
of Saturday were opened by a discussion upon
paragraph which appeared in morninspa
per, charging, upon the authority of g cor
respondent" that one of the jurors empan-
nelled to try the cause was cousin of the wife
of Dr. Graham. After considerable argument,
the Judge said if there was any motion offered
on the subject, and an application made on
affidavit, he would entertain it, but upon q
mere newspaper paragraph he could make no
comment, nor did he feel authorized to cues i.
ton the juror as to the accuracy or falsity of
the allegation. No motion being made, the
matter was dropped, after an Intellectual effort
on the part of the juror, mot the one alluded
to- to make some observations to the Court on
the sarangeness Of the accusation. The de
fence then proceeded to examine a number of
witnesses, who deposed that it was an inva
liable custom of DR.. Graham to carry the wea-
pom in question, or some other stick, and that
the cane was the UGde n1ecnm of the defend ant
who was never seen without his hat and stick,
except at meal times. Further evidence was
offered by the defence to show the irrascibil
of the deceased This offer Of testimony the
Court excluded, but noted it on the minutes.
and counsel for the defence excepted. DIR. ]
NJ. Carn0chan was then examined and gave
very important surgical testimony. The great
er part of the day, however, was occupied in
the argument of the several offers of counsel
and at the rising of the Court it was understood
that the evidence on both sides had closed.
