Fire! Fire!

The house of A. F. Moore, used as dwell
ling and store room, caught fire on We'd
nesday of last week. in the roof, and when
noticed was making fine progress, bidding
fair to make beautiful fire. The fame was
bursting through the comb, the whole length
of the building, and had it not been for the
activity and ind ol,itable energy of our citi
zens must have consumed the house. AS il
is no damage was done, as the proprietor
was about to to replace the roof with new
one, which was facilitated, perhaps, by the
fire brpsking out when it did. The citizens
of Cadiz cannot be beat in subduipg fire
anywhere. .--RrpuLtican.

Our exchanges from all points, inform us
that the fly is making sad havoc among
nearly all the wheat-felds in the country,
and threatens almost the entire annihilation

the poor, for it is them that suffer when the

prices. There is, however, great abun-

! HoEING CoRN.-Some ask how many
times it is best to hoe corn and o.her crops.
| The best answer to that question was
given Us a few days since by farmer
whom we had observed often at work in a
field Of corn in sight of our window. In 60
| ing over the piece with him, and remarking
the remarkable growth, we asked him how
many times he usua ly hoes his corn
"Why," said he, Il do as | was brought
up BY my father to do. He never had any
particular number of times, but hocd it all
he could. I find it grows faster, and stands
dry weather better, the oftener it is hoed.
This is the true philosophy of culture; stir
the ground. The direction for carly and
good crops, after the proper previous prepa
ration, would be TO stir the ground. Crops
are like canimals-they need petting and care.
A friend was remarking to us one evening,
the difference in the growth Of melon vines
in neighbours garden and in his own, side
by side, Of the same kind of preparation for
the seed, sown at the same time. The
neighbours melons were in blossom, while
his own, he said, were but three or four in
ches in height. The difference had been
produced BY the constant labor and care of
the gardener in stirring the ground and reg
ulating the amount of sun and shade, air
moisture they received Granite Farmer.
DRIED FRU1T.-There hes been great
decline in the price Of this article in most if
not alEthe western markets. More dried
fruit is sold perhaps in this market annually
than any other in the Union, and it is there
fore one of the stable commodities Of trade
The stock of apples here and, elsewhere is
large, and wi him two months the market
rate has fallen fifty per cent Good apples
can be had by the quantity for 05@9oc.-
At Cincinnati from last accounts they were
only worth 30CG85c Peaches sell consid
erably higher, but they too have submit
ted to considerable decline. Prime, in
lots cannot be sold here at over $2@2. .25
per bushel. X few who have sent large
quantities of fruit TO this city for sale, will
be somewhat disappointed in their account
of sale. Few or none have been taken this
season for the California emigration, and
the consequence is there is large supply,
particularly of apples, left on hand.--&
