at the close of the distribution the Governor
made few appropriate remarks to the pupils,
congratulating them on their proficiency and
marked Improvement during the year. He
alluded to the projected new school building,
ana hoped the day was not distant when the
| youth of Georgetown would possess educational
advantages equal to those of any city in the
country. He concluded by saying that he would
do all in his power to build up the pubic schools
| OF Georgetown. His remarks were received with
| applause. The exercises were interpreted with
music by the band and singing by the pupils,
and closed with the singing Of the doxology.
The spectacle presented inside the church was
| very beautiful one. The marin aisles on the
lower foor were mostly occupied by the chill
dren, neatly dressed, and the outer sisles and
galleries were flied with the parents and friends
Of the pupils and friends Of education. The
female pupils, ROBBED in white, come schools with
green, made a fine display. This church. which
| win soon be abandoned by the congregation for
anew church edifoe, is well htted for such oe-
casions as that Of yesterday.
MR.. JAMES 8. WRLoH, Of the firm OF Herr &
\ WEIGH, OF this city, who is at present in Ohio,
writes that the wheat crop in the Miami valley,
4 through which he has passed, Ia very poor.
| AoTINe CoRoKER HARTIeAE yesterday
| viewed the body Of Henry Scale, recently
drowned on Sinms' wharf, and decided that an
inquest was unnecessary.
| HE WHEAT AND FLOUR MARKRT.-There
mas been no wheat on the market during this
1 week. 1t is expected that the next receipts
which are looked for about the 18th OF July
will be of the new crop. The recent decline In
prices may deter many farmers and other
holders from putting any large quantity on the
market at present. The -four market has been
dull during the week. Some brands of extras
have declined Is cents. Buyers are holding of,
most of them having stock on hand which
| they are anxious to dispose of before making
new purchases. A number of our city mills
| have temporarily closed for repairs and inn
| provements.
