John g. Proctor, Esq, city editor OF the
Washington Critic, died Of typhoid fever in
that city on Wednesday night Of last week :
Mr. Proctor was for some time a resident OF
our town and had the management of the old
maryland Journal while owned by Mr.. John
Colgate Parker. After leaving here he was
employed as reporter upon several OF the
Washington papers, and was for long pc
rod Treasurer of the School Fund Of the Dis
trct Of Columbia He was a gentleman Of
pleasant and agreeable manners, and his death
is a source Of profsand sorrow TO all who
knew him.
Rev. Charles II Nonrse, so we'll and favor
ably known TO our people, died at bis resi-.
dence in the District Of Columbia, on the 18th
instant in the Goth year Of his age Mr.. N
was for many years a prominent member Of
the Presby terian Church His remains were
brought to this county BY rail on Friday even
ing last, and were met at Washington Grove
station bya large concourse Of sorrowing rel
atiyes and friends.

The Crons.

Considerable dissatisfaction is expressed by
our farmers who have threshed their wheat
crop for this season at the very small yield
compared with the promise before harvest
While there is great abundance of straw,
the heads do not appear to be hlle6 and the
crop will not come up to that Of last year.
Reports from all parts of the county repre-
sent the growing corn as in a very fine con-
Oats have been harvested during the past
week, and the yield is much better than for
many years. The crop Of hay is abundant in
all sections of the county.

Fish Dying.

We learn from gentlemen engaged on the
Chesapeake and Ohio Canal that during the
late severe hot weather thousands of fish have
died and are seen floating upon he surface Of
the water, in the canal and river The water
for the past few weeks has been remarka.
bly, muddy and very warm and it is supposed
by some that this is the cause of their dying
Another very plausible theory is that thi:
effect is produced by the contamination of III,
head waters of Potomac by the late Presiden
tisl party Grant 4 Co.. who have beer
sojourning there for some time past, and per
did appear little drunk before they died.

Of the MONDAY sun. The alarm soon became
general and there was mighty moving
among pedestrians and baby-carriages. From
staid matrons and blooming maids came the
shrill shrek Of despair as loved ones were

most in the lwinkling of an eye that the en-
tire artillery force Of the place was in motion

would follow the first onslaught. ''Frog
Town turned out to a man, and with a
couple OF Intellectual magisterial shots at the
enemy the whole line of battle opened. The
booming Of the shotgun, the sharp crack Of
the pocket revolver, and the wild cry OF the
advancing host soon taught the enemy that
the only chance for life was in re Ieat. He at
once executed a brilliant faux movement
through the gardens, but being met at every
point by our unerrng marksmen was at last
