We call particular attention to the inter

Til K SI PPOSED HOMICIDE A T CON
VICT CAMP.
Iu another column will be found the facts
relating to the supposed murder of George
lliiiflsoa, a negro convict, at the camp of
Messrs. Grant it Alexander. The facts as re
ported byCoroner Kile are positively shocking.
If the negro was so sick as to render it proba
ble that his death was the result of impru
dence after taking medicine, he was surely
too sick to be beaten so severely as he must
have been, if Coroner Kile’s statement is cor
rect
We sincerely trust that the case will under
go thorough ionvestigation, as we believe it
will, and if it should be established that this
negro was killed by such inhuman treatment,
we invoke tho severest penalties of the law
upon one who could so maltreat a fellow
creature.

well. Where cultivation is good the yield will be from
fifteen to 25 per ceut greater than last year.
Monroe, La., July 27, 1873.

July Report of the Agricultural Department.
Washington, July 28,1873.
The July Agricultuial lteport has just been sent to
press. It represents an improvement iu winter
wheat, but a decline in tho prospects of spring wheat
on account of the unseasonable woatlier iu some quar
ters and the insect enemies iu others.
The average in corn is increased in West Virginia
and Minnesota, and decreased iu all the other Slates
except Florida and Arkansas, where it remains the
same as last year. Corn planting was everywhere
retarded by the weather, and in many cases has been
several times reolauted. The annual complaint of de
fective seed is made in all parts of the country.
T’ * «■ r: 1.1 on of cotton had been previously given
anil indiciums up to July 1st indicate a crop of
>5 j per ceut of an average, not including Vir-
b j,ia, where the culture is yet mainly experimental.
The prospectiv a yield of oats has declined during
June in the New England, Middle and Northwestern
States, except in Wisconsin.
It was enhanced in all the Gull States except Mis
sissippi. Winter rye improved in lthode Island, Con
necticut New Jersey, Maryland, North Carolina, Mis
sissippi, Texas, Arkansas, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois and
Iowa.
It remained the samo in Georgia, and declined in all
other States. Spring rye was below the average in all
the States but five, the minimum being, 70, being
fouug in California, and tho maximum, 110,
being in Nebraska. Winter barley generally
declined in tbe South and West where heavy rains
prevailed. The grass crops are generally improved in
the New England and Middle State*, however, the-}
were greatly shortened by the drought.
The late winter told disastrously upon the fruit
crop. The injury to apple trees was more extensive
than w as apparent at last report. Va*t numbers of
peach trees were killed.
The condition of grapes ranged fiom sixty-one in
California to one hundred and twenty-seven; ia Ne
braska one hundred, representing an average. The
acreage in potatoes remained the same as last year, or
increased in twenty-two States and decreased iu all the
others.
The Colorado beetle has extended its ravages East,
being reported for the first time in several counties in
New York. It was still demonstrating in tho West,
but farmers bad learned in many countius how to de
stroy it effectually.
The maximum of crops (110) was fouud in Georgia;
the minimum (76) in Delaware.
Memfhis, July 23,1873.
The crop reports from Arkansas are encouraging-
The rain the past ten days has developed the corn and
cotton. Bain is needed in the region around Jacksou-
port.
A report from Mississippi is conflicting in regard to
cotton. Not more than half a crop of corn, on account
of drought. In the neighborhood cf Okalonc. Kos
ciusko anl Brandon, cotton aud co i make a poor
yield, on account of drought and won..*
The cotton prospect is fair in West Tcuncssee, but
corn is ouly half crop.

At au early hour thia morning Weill i Almau’s shoe
►tore, two doors *outh of the starting point of Satur
day morning's disastrous conflagration, was discovered
to b« on Arc, snd so ineffectual were the efforts of tho
fire department, who were worn out by tho labors of
the proceeding morning, that tho building, together
with an adjoining one, Occupied by a hardware store
was in a short time entirely destroyed. But littlo of
the contents of the buildings were saved.
About half an Lour after tho discovery of this fire,
another fire broke out ou Campbell’s wharf, about a
square off from the flr*t This flro was on tho first
floor of a three ctory brick building, occupied by a
produce shipper. This building, snd tho one imme
diately north, which was used for tho same purpose,
were entirely destroyed. Upon the discovery of this
fire, which was tbe filth that had broken out during
the 24 hours cudlug Sunday morning, the greatest
consternation prevailed. Market square and Maiy
street thronged with people moving about in wild dis
may, many believing it sn original plan for tho de

Moilie Waterman and Her Dog.
From the New Orleans Picayune.
Iu the private album of the Chief of Po
lice, where all the celebrated women’s pic
tures, or “mugs of the Mollies” attached to
the rogue’s gallery, aro kept, there are many
striking facts, some fair, beautiful aud proud,
others soft and delicate, others piuclied and
sharp, while again are those intellectual, and
with the stamp of refinement and wealth.
Moilie Waterman’s picture is one of these. It
is that ot a plain, cold woman, just like that
of a statue would be, with her black lmir
folded back and bouud around her head,
while her dress of rich black is caught by the
throat with a heavy clasp.
By her side, with its head in her lap and
its intelligent eyes looking eagerly into her
face, is a black and tan teirier dog of the
medium size and with a plain collar.
A singular picture to see in a gallery of
thieves, yet prabably tbe most singular pair
found hi the long linen oi faces.
Moilie Waterman never stoic herself. She'
trained licr dog. Going into a store, she se
lected various costly laces, jewelry, etc., aud,
looking at them, placed them back with a
particular motion of her hand, shortly going
out ot the store. The clog remained, and,
seizing the article when the showman’s back
was turned, mode with it to her room, where
it was received bv Moilie and the dog re
warded.
For years she plied this with success, uu-
til one day the dog was caught there. Uu
heeding of herself, .she surrendered, implor
ing for the life of her favorite.
The picture of tho two were, however,
taken together, and tl.cn the dog was killed,
the body bring inhumanly thrown into the
cell where tlic woman lay.
*So the police left them; but, when they re
turned wi»h the morning, she was iound dead,
poisoned by lo r own hand, lying with her
steadfast friend.
There was a rode inquest of course—a coro
ner and a joking crowd—but when tbe two
were tumbled into their old box, out into the
Potter’s Field, there wero closed out forever
two wbo might be an example to many loving
friends.
