THE GRAIN CROPS.

REPORTS FROM ALL SECTIONS suMMA.
RI2ED by THE AGRICULTURAL DEpART'
MENT.
The summary of the grain crop reports
received by the agricultural department
was made public last evening. The corn
crop has made improvement since the
last report. The average stands four
points lever than the standard of full con.
dition, and indicates yield, with scnson.
able moisture and invoring temperature,
hereafter, of twenty-six to twenty seven
bushels per acre. The average for Au.
gust of 1884 was the same, but fell three
points during the sivty days following,
when the yield was twenty.six bushels.
In 1879 the average for August was nine.
ty.nine, and ultimate yield, as reported
by the census, was twenty. eight bushels.
The increase has been points in New
York, 8 in Virginia, North Carolina /,
Georgia 2, Alabama /, Michigan 8, Iii.
nois 4, Missouri 2, Kansas 7, Nebraska
8, and Iowa o.
There has been slight decline in
Pennsylvania, Maryland, South Caro-.
lima, Tennessee, Texas, Kentucky, Ohio,
and Indiana. In the seven corn surplus
states the averages are Ohio 90, In.
diana 90, Illinois %, Iowa 101, Nebraska
100, Missouri 80, Kansas 90.
Correspondents report drought in some
places, excess of rain in others, but
well drained and deeply cultivated land
has suffered little from drought or super.
saturation. Meteorological conditions
have been generally favorable. The
prospect has not been exceeded since
1880.
Tho moist and hot weather following
the 10th of July has caused some dam.
mainly in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
While generally noticed, its effects are
variously reported, prominent counties
returning from 100 down to 50, and
in few cases down to 60, and
to 4S in the case of Pierce
county, Wisconsin. Most Of the great
wheat counties of Minnesota report av.
erages from 70 to 90, though Dodge re-.
turns only so. Some OF less importance
make an average of 100. The reduction
in prospective yield is greatestin Mime.
sofa, amounting to nine points. The de.
cline is FIVE in Wisconsin, four in Iowa,
and one in Dakota. There is an increase
in the other territories and in New Eng.
land. The average decline is four points
and indicates reduction Of six millions
of bushels from the expectation on the
1st Of July.
No reports concerning the result ot
threshing of winter wheat are received
except in the south. In Texas the out
come is greater than was expected, and
higher rates of yield are reported
OTHER CROPS.
The average for oats has declined from
81 to 90, which is four points higher than
in August of last year.
Rye averages "a, showing continued
improvement since the lst of June.
Barley stands as in the last report, al
02, which indicates about an average
crop for any series of five or len years.
There is an increase in the area oI
buckwheat, and condition averages 95.
A medium crop of hay is assured by
the average, 93.
Tobacco makes n general average
of 81.
The average for potatoes is 10, against
81 last month.

HMARYLkND, MY MARYLAND. ~

From Mrs. Burton Harrison's "Recol
lections of Virginia Girl in the FRS.
Year of the War;" we quote the followg.
as the origin Of some of the confe',
crate war songs: at was at this time
after supper at the headquarters of the
Maryland line at Fairfax, that the after
ward universal war song, my Maryland,
was set ahost upon the tide of army
favor. We were sitting outside tent in
the warm starlight Of an early autumn
night, when music was proposed. At
once we struck up Randulls verses to
the tune Of the old college song, 'Lauri.
ger Horatius, "a young lady Of the
party from Maryland, q cousin of ours,
having recently set them to this music
before leaving home TO share the fortune
ofthe confederacy. All joinedin the ring.
ing chorus, and when we finished burst
of applause came from some soldiers lis.
tening in the darkness behind belt of
trees. Next day the melody was hummed
far and near through the camps, and in
due time it had gained and held the place
offayorite song in the army. No doubt the
hand.organs would have gotten hold of
It, but, from fret to last during the con.
tinuance of the confederacy, those cheer.
full instruments Of torture were missing.
Il hesitate to mention this fact lest il
prove an incentive to other nations to go
to war; Other songs sung that evening,
which afterward had great vogue, were

HOW THE YOUNG SOLDIERS SPEND THE
TINE AT COLONIAL BEACH.
COLONIAL BEACH, Aug. 1.-THE Ma.
tional Rifle Cadet Corps, 1t. Col. @. s.
Domer, commanding, arrived here Sat.
urday evening on the steamer Lady Of the
Lake, and were enthusiastically vel.
coined by the whole population-cottag
ers, guests of the hotel, and natives.
The entire beach was illuminated with
bonGres, while the hotel and residences
were beautifully decorated with Chinese
lanterns and colored lights of various de.
signs. The soldier boys were accom-.
panied by many friends, and every &C.
commodation had been provided for
crab and oyster supper ut the hotel
shortly after their arrival, about IL
o'clock p. M. Sunday was spent quietly
in camp, with the exception of a
dress parade Of the battalion in
the afternoon, and it was not until
Monday morning that the boys let them.
selves loose for the pleasures and pas.
times they had provided for themselves
and friends. Dancing commenced on
the pavilion shortly after breakfast, fol-
lowed by bathing, base ball, Irritation,
and feeding, which was only interrupted
by the arrival of the excursion rendered
by President Ridley to the officers and
band of the steamer Arrowsmith, when
the sports were reinforced by an exhibi.
tion of roller skating, delightful music
by Frank Pistorio's band, and subse.
quently by dress parade and drill by
the cadet corps, which was warmly ap.
plauded by all of the thousand persons
who witnessed it.
The junior corps have the benefit of the
experience of Quartermaster @. A. Seitz,
Surgeon G.. A. Butler, Commissary c.
w. Holmes, Adjutant S. G. Stokes, and
Sergeant Major Willis b. Magruder, o
the senior command, who are indeiati
gable in their endeavors to render the
occasion memorable as well as an ex
emplary one, and their efforts viii
doubtless be crowned with success, for
the gentlemanly department Of the corps
has already elected the warmest expires
sions Of approval from the visitors at the
Beach.
The roster of the cadets is as follows

boys, aud a delightful time is predicted
for theif entire soiourn. An excursion

THE ERA DIAYOLO OF PARIS.

Charles Marchandon. who was exc
cuted on Monday in Paris, will be re-
membered as the Fra Diavolo of Paris.
He was only 81 years of age, remarkably
handsome, always faultlessly attired, and
Of excellent family connections. His
numerous robbsries were perpetrated
with wonderful adroitness under numer-
GUS DISCUSSES, and his leisure was spent
in luxurious retirement in country
house pear Compiegne. His home was
a model of good taste and elegance, and
his wife, to whom he was iaost DEVOTED,
beautiful, refined woman. In his sub
urban retreat the robber was believed to
be an illegitimate son of Worth, the
man nilliner, He was extremely popu-
lar with his neighbors, courted in society,
and regarded as Il model paymaster by
the tradespeople. The crime for WHICH
he suffered the death penalty was his
first detection. He murdered a rich old
lady, who discovered him in the night
stealing her valuables. For while he
remained Bnsaspected, but the police
finally traced their RleY, and at the sub.
sequent trial all Paris heard with Won
derment Of the long array of crimeS
including murders, Of which the beard
less, mild'eyed prisoner was proven to
