SUSPICION OF LARCENY-The attention

looking specimen OF humanity, William 7. DAVIS
by name, yesterday afternoon, on Delaware
avenue, below Race street. He was dressed
something ike the 'Arttul DOdger" was when
"Olver Twist first made his acquaintance in
London. This man had on an indIa-rubber
overcoat which was thirteen sizes too big for
hIm, and fitted, in tact, like a shirt on bean
pole. He was trying to dispose Of the coat for
the very moderate sum of a onedolar green
back. AS the garment was worth considerably
more, the HarbOr Police took him In charge, and
esCored him to the station House, and this
morning he wGS committed in default OF $500
ball by Alderman Goand.
A CASE OF HIGHWAY RoBBERY.-Early

walking along the street at Seventh and Bedford
streets, two men sprang upon him, and knocked

scoundrels had relieved HIM of his watch and
about ten dollars in money. The two men con-
cerned in the robbery, Samuel Watson and
Alfred LllIey, were arrested before they could
escape with their booty. They are both hard
cases, and are notorious for being vagrants and
tn ewes, without any liked place Of residence
and living on what they can tilCh and steal
They both had a hearing before Alderman Tit
tcrmary this morning, and were committed to
answer at Court.

From the Conneaut Reporter:
The number of burials made in our vii
lage cemetery from the LIST of January to
the 10th of July is thirteen, while the
number inferred during the correspond
ing period Of last year was twenty-six-
thus making the proportion of MORALLY
just one-half. Since the 10th of April
last there has not been a single death in
NJ town from natural causes, and but
one from accident.
The vast expanse of corn and potatoes
through this section never looked more
promising than at present. The late hot
weather has brought the entire corn crop
forward with wonderful rapidity, while
a bountiful yield of potatoes has been
placed beyond doubt. Notwithstanding
the unfayorasle reports made in the early
part of the season we do MOI sac why the
farmers haye not due reason to rejoice at
the prospect, for osrtsinly, the products of
the country this season will compare with
those of any preceding yeas.

From the New Philadelphia Chronicle


Passing through some of the southern
portion of this county during the latter
part of last week, we we're glad to see the
splendid prospect we have for corn.
Never within or recollection has corn
looked more healthy and at this season
than it hoes this year.
On last Sunday night a heavy rain
storm occurred north aud Northwest ofthis
place. Grass that would have made hun
dreds of tons of hay was entirely destroy
ed. Two breaks occurred in the Ohio
canal, near the e~plVert1 shout one mile
above Dover. About sixty feet of the
bank was washed away at each break. and
navigation stopped fer several days. Dry
Hollow, ravine in the plain near Dover,
was flooded to the depth of several feet,
and on Monday morning q Tremendous
bleating and believing proceeded there
from. Farmers thought their sheep and
calves had been parrriea there, but on
going to the spot they saw the ravine was
floating with frogs, which were either
rained down OF migrated from the river,
half a mile distant.
The Chronicle calls attention to the fact
that in making. up our summary Of
Northern Ohio SEFs last week, we gave
the Adpocats the credit of several items
that belonged to the Chronicle. The error
was one OF inadvertance, and q we accept
the apology of our contemporary. Its
all right. led. LEADER.
