The WHEAT CRoP. "A letter from the
Valley Of Virginia, mentions the SAME
popularity in reference to early and lats
seeding, that we recently recorded When
referring to the crop Of +. a. Clabaugh
Esq, of this county. 1t is as follows -
There is a peculiar feature about the
wheat crop in the valley this season
There are fields lying side by side with
soil Of the game fertility, one seeded IN
good time, perhaps, and took root before
the winter, and in many cases win yield
twenty to twenty-five bushels 10 the acre
and the adjoining field seeded later, and
the plant not having rooted before cold
weather, is in most cases a perfect failure
rarely yielding seed sown. This is tho
case the entire valley over.

DEArH OF AN ESTEEMED CITIzEy.-With
unfeigned sorrow and profound regret we an
nounce the death Of a good man and an hon.
ored citizen. John H. Yingling-"Uncle
john" as he was lovingly called by most of
the youthful portion of the community-is no
more. His decease occurred at the residence
Of his brother, Mr.. Vim. Yingling, on Satur-
day night, at II o'clock, after an illness of
only few days. In the prime Of manhood,
with the promise of many happy years before
him, the summons came and he went forth
into the unseen world with calm confidence in
the deathless love Of that Saviour in whom he
trusted. A native and lifelong resident of
this city, Mr.. Yingling had universally en-
deared himself TO the people by his upright
and honorable character and the gentleness
and amiability Of his disposition. Several
times called to positions Of public trust and
responsibility, he always discharged his duties
with promptness and fidelity, yet with such
unfailing courtesy and kindness as won the
esteem and regard Of all. He was a member
Of several 0rders--the Masons, Odd Fellows,
Knights Of Pythias and Sons of Temperance
and the membership and brethren Of these
orders testified their love for his memory by
attending his funeral in neutrality-suspicious.

burial rites Of the Masons and knights Of
Pythias were performed at the grave. A

LOCAL AFFAIRS.

CIoven Hiil. FAEM This enc estate, con
slstinf of over 100 acres, is situated IL the
Fourth Election District Of Carroll canniy,
near EinkshnFR station, Western Maryland
Railroad, about eight miles from Westmih-
steF, aud twenty miles from Baltimore. access.
ihle BY pike or railroad. Il is the property OF
Lewis II. Cole, Esq, who purchased it OF
Thomas Poultney, Esq, Of Baltimore, In An
gust 1871. For beauty Of location and exquis.
tie scenery we do not think II Is surpassed BY
any property within our knowledge. The
dwelling is large stone mansion, with broad
Nerandas, the grounds around il beautifully
diversified, the lawns studded with stately
shade-irees, and the scenery, from every point
Of view, embracing hill and valley, field aud
forest, while noble stream Of water mean
ders through the meadow at the very foot Of
the lawn. Few locations are better fitted by
nature for popular summer resort TO the in
habitants of the sscity full. Here parents
might repair with their children, and find
abundant shade ample room for exercise in
walking and riding invigorating air; pure,
sofi, spring water; and all the ef eeteras Of q
first class resort during the heated term. BY
a small expenditure in the construction Of q
dam, an artificial lake could be formed to
beautify tae grounds, and bathing, boating
aud fishing, could be added 70 the other at
fractions Of the place. With additional build
in@s, and the improvements we have above
limited at, together with the natural beauty Of
the scenery, and lis convenience to Baltimore,
there can be no question but the place would
possess rare attractions, and be crowded with
guests.
Mr.. Cole makes specially Of Alderney
Cattle, Southdown Sheep, and the products
Of the dairy. He has ~ head Of Attorneys,
among them very superior COW, imported by
j. Howard McHenry, Eeq., and several Ayr
shire grades II is his intention to have a
portion Of his herd on exhibition at the Agri.
cultural Fair, this fall.
His mode Of feeding his stock is BY soiling,
altogether, beginning with rye, followed BY
wheat, oats and corn, in the order in which
they are named. The feed is cut, from day
TO day, and fed to the stock in their stalls.
Except small range of meadow and forest
land, for exercise, no grazing is allowed upon
the farm. The corn, for soihng, Is planted in
rows three feet apart, and hand.drilled in the
rows. An equal number Of stock can be KEEP,
in this way, with more profit than in the old
way OF letting them roam at large over the
fields trampling down the grass, and more
manure can be made and saved
II the proprietor of Clover Hill should con-
clude TO devote part Of his fine estate to a
summer resort such as we have alluded to
above, we make no doubt that it would be a
paying investment.
