GEORGETOWN CORRESPONDENCE
GEORGETOWN, August 2. 1876,

GEORGETOWN, August 2, 1855.
Our city this morning is as quiet as mouse
trap. A perfect dearth of every description
of news of public character prevails. This
monotony, we suppose, will be disturbed for q
few days after the Mayors proclamation shall
have been made ordering an election to fill
the vacancy in the Board of Aldermen. We
shall probably then have served up quite a
warm dish of politics of the genuine and arti-
hcIal American stamp, over which to regalc
ourselves until the election is over, and par.
ties settle down into their usual quiet again.
We were visited again last night b. a heavy
fall of rain, accompanied by heavy thunder
and vivid flashes of lightning
John Garrett, Esq, of our city, who was re-
Gently appointed clerk of the penitentiary in
place of Mr.. King, resigned yesterday, and
the place was filed by the appointment of Mr..
Frank Hare, of your city.
The flour and grain market remains quiet
The former is held this morning at 50 for new.
and 50 so for old standard brands. Wheat
Sl.65aSl.75 for white and red, but little ar.
irving except in wagons. No corn offering.
