DIED.

In Chicago May Is. 1850, az
ter short but painful illness,
Sectional r. Party aged about six
years. Mr.. P. arrived in Chicago
a day or two previous to his sud-
den demise, in the usual enjoy
ment Of his health, where his
friends had met to make some
little arrangements to extend his
usefulness.
The place Of Mr. P's birth was
never known except to a few init
mate personal friends. His line
age however can be traced back
to'avenerable, if not at all times
the most highly esteemed, aaces-
try Thsgrand parents Of young
Mr. P. We're Mr.. Federal Party,
born at Hartford Conn. about
1913, and Miss Ann T, Mason,
who was nearly allied to Mr..
Frank Granger Of Western New
York, who was closely connected
70 the late venerable Mr. Wing
Party, deceased. The immediate
ancestors of the young MI: p,
were Mr.. K. N. Party and Miss
Ann T, Slavery; the former of
whom died in 1856, "unhonored,
unwept and unsung," the latter
ofwhom is now appealing to pub
Tic sympathy for few crumbs of
comfort. The immediate disease
Of young Mr.. p. was an acute at
tack of constitutional weakness,
from which he has suffered from
his early infancy, and with which
his early tutors and his eminent
physician DR.. w. H. Seward
have had an irrepressible conflict,
which has at last termina ted fatal
ly.
How true it is, that "death
loves a shining mark" To rem
der this visitation of a mysterious
Providence more distressing, the
afflicted family on the same day
were called upon by the stern
monarch, death, to part company
with two lovely twins born at
Philadelphia Pa, in June, 1856.
It is understood that the imme-
date causes producing this pain
ful event, was the accidental ad-
,ministering ofthe csncoction of a

Hon H. Greedy at the Office. of the

WHEAr.@The wheat market during

WHEAT.-The wheat market during
the past two weeks has been very brisk. We think
we can safely say that greater amount has been
purchased by our merchants, during that time
than was bought during the entire season last
year. This is probably owing in part to the re-
ductionof freight on the N. c. Railroad, whereby
our dealers can afford to pay the highest price for
wheat. On Monday last buyers in this village
we're paying s1.oo for Red and sl.os for White,
while at other places on the line of the road 90 a
100 was all that could be obtained. For the week
ending Saturday September 1st, ther was bought
and shipped from this village $4,000 bushels of
wheat, and during the same time there was pur-
chased at the Herndon Mill 5000 bushels, making
in all 10, 900 bushels. This, with the apples and
