CENTREviLLE, FAIRFAX COUNTY, VIRGINIA,
July 9th, lS5S.-The favorable weather TOR
the last fortnight has enabled the farmers to
prosecute their haying and harvesting with
good success. Rye, wheat, and clover have
been gathered 10 fine condition. The corn
fields are improving, and, with the IN
tense heat, growing at a rapid pace. Some
fields have already tasselcd out, where the
blowing was done last autumn, thus enabiiog
an early planting Immediately after, and
a slight re- blowing early ID the spring. The
white clover, so long invisible, has again
made it's fragrant appearance, with tne un
common moisture OF the season. Fruit IL
abundant, aud Of the most perfectly deve!-
oped quality. The early garden. have yield
ed quantities of early peas, snap beans, ne"
pota toes, beets, silver-skin onions. cabbage,
aud cucumbers Cymlings, corn beans, and
corn will be next in order, with the ripenlng
of the delicious dew berry. This village, with
its numerous springs OF medicinal water, Is
remarkably free from sickness and death -
Excepting one case of very sudden death, We
have bad no funerals lately. NlATOR.

a merry day in our village day that will
be long remembered by both old and young.
Extensive preparations had been made by the
limited Sabbath School Societies, for an ap-

been selected and prepared for the OCCASION
and a considerable amount OF money con-
trbuted to detray the expenses. Al sunrise,
the various bells of the town pesled forth,
and, mingled with the sweet strains OF the
Leesburg brass band, aroused our citizens
from their slumbers, and gave notice that
the festivities Of the day were about TO com
mence. AT o'clock, the various Sabbath
Schools met at their respective Churches'
where they we're equipped with badges, ban
ners, &c. At O'clock, they formed into
column, under John r. Spiiman, chlet mar
shal, aud proceeded to the grove, where the
day was spent in an agreeable manner. An
earnest and appropriate prayer Was offered
up by Rev. David Thomas, after which the
Declaration of Independence was read ty
John r. Turner, esq. Speeches were made
by Messrs. f NJ SpilmaD, j. '. Brooke, j
Z. Scruggs, DIR. Bacon. s. Mccormick, j. X.
Spilman, and Prof. Sherbrooke. The speech
es were Ell, quent and appropriate, and were
received with applause by the audience,
An abundance of everything good to eat
was on hand, which the large crowd enJoyed.
The band discOursed sweet music throughout
the day, and the children sang number OF
appropriate pieces, which added much to the
interest Of the occasion. Altogether It WAS
joyful day-nothing of Importance OCCUR
ing to mar the enjoyment OF those who par
ticipated in the celebration. Y.
