Loudoun Notes.

VIM. H. Gray, son Of the late Robert
Gray, of Leesburg, died in Stabnton on
Thursday last.
An epidemic of dysentery or diar-
rhna has prevailed in this town and
county for the last week or two, but no
malignant cases have occurred.
The wheat harvest will be early this
season in this county, and there will be
a large crop of straw. Some of our far
mers expect to commence harvesting
next week. Some of our farmers report
the wheat in this county much injured
by the frequent rains, and an insect
which is destroying the grain. They
think ii will not fill out TO more than a
half crop in some parts of the county.
The hay crop, from the frequent rains.
should be a good II in this county.
Our farmers will have to direct their
attention to the production of more hay
than usual, as it generally brings a fair
price and is far better paying in its re-
turn than wheat to the acre.-Lccsburg
Udshingionian.

CoNGREss.-An agreement was reach,
ed in the Senate yesterday to proceed
with the agricultural schedule, cover
ing about ten pages of the tariff bill,
under the fve-minute rule, but the pro-
ress was almost as slow as before the
arrangement was made. Eight para
graphs, 190-19S, comprising about a
page and a-half of the bill were dis
posed of. The debate, as a rule, was
rather dull, although there were occa-
sional sharp exchanges which indicated
that the prolonged daily sessions have
rutlled the usually calm temper of the
Senate.
In the House Mr.. Weadock replied
to the attack of Mir. Linton Oh the
Catholic Church. The question of
continuing the Indian warehouse
at New York was discussed by
Mr.. Aldrich, Of Illinois, and Mr..
Bartlett, of New York, and Mr.. Brosius.
of Pennsylvania, protesting against the
reduction of the appropriation for In
dian schools. At 4:50 the House took
a recess until S o'clock. The evening
session was devoted to pension bills.
The House committee on interstate and
foreign commerce has decided to report
a bill for the requirement of the Mica
ragua canal by the government and for
carrying the work to completion.

SHOT BY His WIFE.-Late Thursday
night news was received at Staunton OF
the shooting Of VIM. T. McCaulley by
his wife, Minnie McCaulley, in the
county about six miles from that city.
DR.. j. B. Catlett was summoned to at
tend the wounded man and found him
in a critical condition. The entire con
tents of a bre%ech-loading shotgun had
torn away a portion of the left breast
of the man, exposing the lung. Nc
Caullev is a sergeant in battery d.,
Fourth Artillery, stationed at Fort Nc
Henry, and was at home on a three
months %iurlough. 1t seems that Nc
Caulley and his wife have not been on
good terms for some time, and that af-
ter having some difficulty, she secured
the shotgun with which he had been
hunting, and shot him as he was en-
tering the door. The was
lodged in Jail at Stanton yesterday
morning to await the result of her hus-
bands injuries. His condition is very
serious.

TROUBLE BREWING.-At the King
George County Courthouse this week
there was no little earnest talk about q
card posted on the courthouse door and
signed F. F. Ninde. The language was
by no means complimentary to Mr..
Luther Price, of that county, who, it
seems, had referred in some manner TO
DR.. Ninde through a communication in
the Fredericksburg Lance, to which DR..
n. took exceptions. We hear hat MIR.

ton of character"

THIS COUNTRY has no army to speak
of, aud a small and utterly inefficient
navy, and yet the enormous amount of
over five hundred million dollars
is eXacted from its people by taxes
every year for the support of its gov
eminent. But as pension frauds and
armor frauds and trusts are increasing,
there must be money to supply their
demands, and that money is raised by
taxes, nine-tenths of which are paid by
poor people. The government is now

Mr.. HALE of Maine, in the US Sen.
ate yesterday, said Southern Sena-
tors were renewing the old story of
thirty-ive years ago and were driving
the Northern people to a point beyond
which no more could be borne" The
provocation for this is the fact that the
Senator's referred to are supporting a
tariff bill for the sole reason that it is less
Objectionable than the Mckinley bill.
1t was Il warlike yell, but was uttered
by a man who never shifted q battle

Now THAT such a reliable ex-federal
soldier as General Palmer Of Illinois,
stands up in the U. S. Senate and bold
affirms that the New England States,
instead of furnishing their quotas of
troops for the war from their W PEG
pie, sent their agents to the conquered
regions of the South and made them up
from the bounty bought negroes there
of, the living New England patriots
would, if they were not the embodiment
of bare faced audacity, be less mouthy
about the great love of "the flag in
their section of the country.

INDIAN BOND MATTER.-There is a
proposition in the Indian appropriation
bill now pending in the House instruct
ing the Secretary of the Treasury to
sell all the Virginia bonds, in which
over 5000 0 of Indian funds were in
vested before the war. Mr.. Holman
favors the proposition, but it is opposed
by all Congressman who believe the
general government should square ac-
counts with some OF the States. Such
q provision would be certain to meet
with defeat in the Senate, no matter
what disposition were made of it III the
House.

REINFORCEMENT should now be the

THE republicans have now logged
religious matters into Congress, and are
denouncing the church which Senator
Vest, not a member Of it, after personal
inspection of its Indian schools, says,
has done more to civilize the Indians
than all the others put together. But
from the death of the Puritans, who
set up a worse religious tyranny in
Massachusetts than they left in Eng
land, down to the present, a higher
law has been the profession of their
descendants, and religious prescription
their ever constant doctrine.

his old political friends and took up

THE unbought people of the country

THE unbought people of the country
were led to believe by the most solemn
promise that if they would elect Mr..
Cleveland and a democratic Congress.
the cost of their living should be re-
.luced, as the tax on the necessarles oil
life would be removed; and yet now, on
the verge of another election, a tarlii
bill is proposed that imposes a higher
tax on sugar and tobacco than that Of
the Mckinley bill, and one higher than
the war tax upon clothing. The sugar
tax is positively outrageous, as by it
the poor people of the country are
plundered, in order to put forty or fifty
million dollars into the pockets OF
the sugar trust. No people on the
face of the earth, except those who live
in this country, would submit quietly
TO such pillaging legislation.
