received his commission as Captain OF Com

in day or two for Wlllamsb burg, Va, to take
commend of his company and the forces at that

The Rain and Crops.
We have had an abundance of refreshing
showers for the past month, and the crops in
this section are better than they have peen
since the war, except peaches, which are an
entire failure. There are hundreds of acres of
corn in the neighborhood Of Hampton, aud the
farmers say the prospects were never better.
The sweet potato crop will also be very large,
and under the present favorable weather will
soon be in market.
Railroad Affairs.
Colonel Thomas s. Flournoy, President of the
Norfolk and Great Western Railroad, has been
in Norfolk for few days past endeayoring to
get the Corporation Court of that city to sub
nit to the people of Norfolk the question of a
subscription to the capital stock of that Com

The Maryland Base Ball Club, OF Baltimore,

They played game with ths Old Point Club, of
this place, on Saturday last, beating them by

succeeded in giving them whitewashlng on

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 27.-There is intense excite
ment among the Democrats since the secret
CIRCULAR of instructions TO registrars has been
brought to light, and serious troubles are anti
cipated. These instructions, if they are carried
out, will undoubtedly give the coming election
to the radicals by an immense majority.
They prohibit persons from registering who
have since the Rebellion affiliated politically
with the secessionists and Southern sympa-
thizers, and also those who have general repu-
tation for disloyalty or incline to secessionism
in feeling, together with those who claim to be
naturalzed citizens and are unable to produc >
their papers or establish their loss by co npetent
evidence, such to be furnished only by persons
who were unconditional Union men since and
during the war.
The Euening Despatch charges the agent of the

position by scattering political calumnies broad
