Oden Bowie, esq, OF Prince Georges coun-
ty, Nd writes that the yield Of the wheat
crop of Prince Georges is scarcely, If any,
more than one-third Of an average This is
owing mainly to the unprecedented ravages
of the fly and joint worm, which, in some
ir-.,.nces, amounted to n total destruction OF
sae entire crops. Some farmers have scarce
~ made their seed off some fields that were
re-ped and in his own crop, he plonghed
up cbout fifty acres the first week III June,
End planted it in corn. The corn Is suffer
ing from, sor this season of the year, an un-
2recedonted drought, which has also affect
&c tobacco very injuriously -preventing, in
~or1e cases, anything like full crop being
planted.

All the Democratic papers in North Caro-
lima, are now explaining why the Democra-
tic party in that State has met with so
many losses. They attribute it, mostly, to
the lad valorem tax" question. And they
say, that Breckenridge will get larger ma
ority than Ellis has. They, also, boast of
having Mr.. Kenneth Raynor, now, on their
side. He was once their especial horror.

ALEXANDRIA,:
FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 10, 1860.

We have received the last Annual Report
of the President and Directors Of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Canal. The record OF the
past few years shows the difficulties that have
beset this i'll managed work-its debts and
its mishaps, &c. But the present Board
think that upon tho completion OF the Dams,
day of prosperity will arrive. just at tins
time, comes the proposition to increase the
tolls on the Canal--which the present mama
gers Of work say they will oppose-but they
ere in the power of the Maryland Board OF
Public Works. Virginia has so much inter
est in the Canal that our State ought to leave
nothing undone to place it under new auSp'-
cies, 20 secure its future usefulness as an
outlet from the coal region to tide water, and
to prevent it from being injured that the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad may reap the
benefits of profitable trade directed from It's
cheapest channel

Mr.. John II. Gilmer returns upon the

tainted with having been an American
for if he we're where the Examiner seeks to
place him, on the political chesS-hoard, she
does not we'll see how he could refuse his
SUPPORT to Mr.. Breckenridge, in considera-
ton Of the uit,d American sentiments ex-
pressed by that gentleman in his Cynthia
speech in 1850"
The Wings in Fauquier county have APP
pointed Vigilance Committees for all the
election precincts, and have commenced a
thorough organization. We trust that the
gentlemen composing these committees
comprising many of the best and most patri-
otto citizens Of the county-will not content
themselves with Il mere nominal enrolment.
Let them act and work efficiently from this
time to the election.

ng. The time is rapidly approaching when the
citizens of Alexandria win be called upon TO select
their Chief Magistrate for the present year The
qualifications of the Executive head OF city like
ours, should be OF high order Intelligence, hrm-
ness, decision, aud sound Judgment, are pre-,
requisites for the Mayoralty. In casting around
for a suitable gentleman, amongst the many we
have heard named, We find no one who would
prove more acceptable than CAPT. WN y. PRICE,
the present worthy Magistrate Of the Fourth ward,
ian office he has filled for the last several years
the duties of which he has discharged in the most
satisfactory manner. Much Of the time consumed
in connection with his Magisterial functions, has
been without remuneration, as well as subJecting
him to expenses incident thereto There Is no
one who is more disposed to temper justice with
mercy" when the case may demand IT. We hope,
therefore, that Capt, Price may, at the ensuing
election, be elevated the highest Municipal Office
