THE ELECTION YESTERDAY.-There
was but little interest manifested in the
election for Judge of the Municipal
Court yesterday, and only about one
fourth of the usual city vote was out.
By the returns, which we append, it
will be seen that Judge NJ. c. Good, the
present incumbent, had things pretty
much all his own way:

OK THE RISE.-The rains of yester-
day and the night previous have caused

the purpose of receiving and arranging
the flowers and floral decorations to be

Mt. Wood Cemetery. Much is to be
done and many hands make light labor.
Remember and bring flowers, oil you

that there will be too many.

Observation-Disclosures is declining in
price. As the grass is high, the reduc-
ton in the figure seems reasonable.
Many of the producers have so long
been accustomed to higher figure as to
forget to give the right change, unless
their attention is called to the over
sight.

ALARM OF FRE.-The alarm of fire
Iast night, about 10 o'clock, was occa-
stoned by ksoue excitable individual
who saw the flame flashing up from the
chimneys at the Belmont mill, yelping
worse than hound pup. His shout was
taken up by hundred or two mere
persons, lettering at the Mcclure House
corner, and amongst them all they got
the engines out. And that's all the fire
there was.

THE STORM OF WEDNESDAY NIGHT
In the drenching storm of rain that pre-
vailed until late hour on Wednesday
night, it was impossible to ascertain all
the damage done by the hurricane that
preceded it.
A walk round the city yesterday
showed the damage by the storm was
moro extensive than it was at first sup
posed.
The injury to trees and shrubbery
was very great, many of them being en-
tirely destroyed, and others broken so
as to lose half their beauty.
The roof was blown off of both ends
of the Back river bridge, as we men
toned yesterday, while the centre re,
mains uuharmed. One Of those who
saw it tells us that for few moments
it seemed to rain shingles and boards.
AS two gentlemen, in buggies, were
driving out of the bridge, the wind
caught them, tearing the buggy bodies
from the wheels as if they had been
bolted with straws, blowing the ruined
vehicles into the ditch, and seriously in
juring one of the gentlemen and one Of
the horses.
A portion Of the fence at the Fair
Grounds was laid fat.
A kitchen attached to the house of Mr.
Riheldaffer was blown down. No one
injured.
A chimney was blown off of Mr., Nor
tons house, corner of Main and First
streets, breaking the roof slightly, but
injuring no one.
A section, perhaps fifteen or eighteen
feet square, of the wall of the First
Ward school house, just being built, was
torn down. Some of the bricks were
carried on to the street by the violence
of the wind.
We are informed that the house of Mr.
Schambra, in Centre Wheeling, waI
struck by lightning, but no very great
damage was done.
Other slight injuries to residences ant
fences are reported.
Over the river great damage was done
to fruit trees.
At Triadelphia Mira. Pryor lost twenty
cherry trees loaded with fruit.

Mr.. Meeker.--Mr. Greeley has raised

Dr.. Trimble-I have been there al.

deep plowing, and only got the crop Of

Mr.. Curtis-Whetber deep or shallow,
depends entirely on the quality Of soil
Muck soil must not be stirred too much,
neither sandy soil bat iu heavy clay

drought, if you have bard pan under

little harvest, but il you hreak up the
hard pan and give the roots chance to

Mr.. Fuller-I would add, as appendix
to all this. that it largely depends on the
crop you purpose growing. If l plant
grape vines or other vegetation the roots
Of which have habit Of going deep. see
that the top soil is placed down within
their reach, but with wheat and certain
other things the practice ought to be
different.
Mr. Reads-l plowed the half Of q field
six to eight inches, and the other hall
three to four, and sowsd rye. The har.
vest showed that the shallow plowed por.
ton gave twenty per cent. the best re

Dr.. Trimble-I suggest that We let this
subject lie over for the present. Mean.

that converts to my theory are coming in
