SUDDEN DEArH.-0n Friday evening q
woman named Catherine Clancy died suddenly
at her residence, corner Of Poplar and Monroe
streets, Georgetown. II was supposed that her
death was caused by Ill .treatment from her hus.
an inquest over the body. The jury. after hear
ing all the evidence, rendered verdict that the
said CAtharine Clancy was In good health on
Friday evening, at four o'clock, and that about
eight o'clock she died. There were reports,
which appeared to be we'll founded, that she had
been kicked by her husband and otherwise Ill
treated as 10 cause her death. But upon examina-
tion Of several witnesses and two physieiAns,
the Jury were unable to ascertain what caused
her death, and could ind no proof to sustain the
reports, and that her death came BY some causes
unknown to the Jury.

ed, though we incline to fear that the severity
of the drought will give us total below the
estimate made by the Commissioner. Viz
ginia is put at 81, and North Carolina at u.
while Tennessee goes up III. On the other
hand, while we fall below an average, the
North West shows considerable excess over
the crop of go, the year taken as the stand
ard of comparison. 81
1t is comfortable to know, however, that
the English demand for American bread is not
likely to be so great as to embairass us mate
rally; and while we shall feel the effects of
short crops, in so many places by the begin
ming Of tile new year, there will be an ample
surplus in the country. But, we leave this
topic, pregnant with suggestions as it is, for
the present, to exhibit curious fact connect
ed with the dminution in domestic animals
in the South as compared with 1860.
Great as the loss has been, the table before
us is necessarily imperfect in showing the
waste of war as it makes no allowance for
the increase of 1861. Leaving cut the de-
tails, which are not necessary to our present
purpose, this table shows that in the States of
Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisi-
ana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Caro-
lima, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia, there
was, in 1860, an aggregate of Horses, Mules,
Horned Cattle, Sheep and Hogs equal to
1925, 1922 and that there is now a total Of
21,552.972, showing deficit of 12.172,s20
animals to he put to the debit side of the
account, we opened with Mars, Belona &
Co
In analysing the table still further, we find
that Virginia owned of this live stock in go,
an aggregate of 4,0l6,24 and that the esti-
mate for 65 shows total of 1868, GIG, equal
to depreciation Of 2,15O,338, during the
war, loss of little over so per cent. of the
stock This compared with the total esti-
mated loss of the South shows hers to have
boon a little in excess Of Is per cent. of that
sustained by the entire Confederacy
In North Carolina the total Of all domestic
animals in go, was 1896 1922, and 66 it APP
pears as 1920 ,707, showing loss of 1885,
ll5, equal to about 30 per cent. of her entire
stock. Texas suffered least, having lost out Of
total of 1856, 76s the surprising small num-
Der 424 ,293 e
These figures show at glance the fright
full wear of war, in one single element of
agricultural wealth but they are valuable,
as we shall hereafter show, for other uses than
the qualification of speculative curiosity.

Facts from the Agricultural Depart.
ment.

We have before us some data compiled by
the Bureau of Agriculture, which might be
studied by all classes of our society with profit,
and our merchants, especially, might devote
their attention to the publications of this de-
partment with advantage.
The document before us shows, for exam
pie, an approximate estimate of the yield of
cotton, which, though vague and unsatisfacto-
ny in its terms, is sufficiently clear to confirm
the previous statements Of the Southern press
as to the shortness of the crop. The esti-
mates which were forwarded, during the sum-
mer, with such elaborate nicely of calculation
TO the N. York Times and other journals, were
based on insufficient data, if indeed they were
not made in the interest of those who desir-
ed to affect the market by general belief in
the prospects Of a fair crop. These expecta-
tons are characterized as &C extravaganza" and
there is reason to believe, according to an
opinion recently expressed in New Orleans,
that deduction Of one half from these glow
ing pictures, is but fair estimate of the de-
The Report also gives confirmation in a
very distressing manner of the general failure
of the crop Of cereals. South of the Potomac,
the average Of wheat and corn in the Southern
States falling below half the production of
60, which year has been taken as the stand
ard of comparison. 1t appears, on examining
the table exhibiting these facts, that the def
cit in breadstu1s develops itself chiefly in the
cotton States
In Georgia the corn crop is put at 81, the
average tof 1860 being represented by 10 +;
in other words, Georgia will make Throwing
out the fractioD} 6-l0, or something over hi If
q crop, according to the standard already in
dicated The others fall below this. 1t is easy
to explain the deficit in this group of States
They were stimulated by the demand for cotton
to the neglect of other interests. In the border
States, the average is more nearly maintain
