MApEiRA.-It seems not improbable that
the failure of the vine crops may prove a
great blessing to the island, as it has had the
effect of turning industry into other desira-
bic channels, such as the cultivation of the
sugar cane (Which .ourishes surprisingly the
growth Of corn, and the production of cochi-
neal. The vines also show symptoms Of i'm
rrovement, and it is hoped that few years
may see them ret oil to their former produce
tiveness. Madeira is now free from the
cholera, which so awfully decimated the pop
Nlation.

10 the County Commissioners

of Cecil County.
The undersigned, Trustees Of the Poor, bag
leave to submit the following Rcpor TT Of tho condi

the year ending the first Monday Of May, 1856.
On tho first Monday in May, 1885, there remain

Tho produce Of the farm during the year was as
foliO6s:
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1856-12-20

Tho whole of this produce, except the amount
Of Sl04, which was Sold was consumed on the
premises. The levy for 1886 was S., 700, which,
together with tho amount received for produce
sold, made the whole amount in hands for the
year S2,s6i.0O. Tho amount requisite fer the sup
port of the Institution during tho year we found
to be 81, $3.50 which left tho sum Of Sl54.06 due
to parties who needed their money, and relying on
the corn Drop Of 1885, which was greater than
usual, to reimburse US (by lessening the amount Of
grain to be purcha,ed.) we borrowed $3.50 90, tho
treasurer paying the balance a .O6 out Of his own
funds leaving the county sndebted to him for tho
same, as will appear by his account filed in your
Office and the $1,000 borrowed we expect to be
able to pay out Of the levy for 1861.
Among the causes which added to the expenses
Of the year, may be named the high price of corn,
a greater quantity Of which than usual had to be
purchased during the summer and fall Of lS55)-
the increased number Of paupers and an Unusual
amount of sickness.
Besides tho necessary expenditures for keeping
the property In order, and tho additional furniture
needed in the house, we bought during the year
ono ton Of guano and six hundred md twcnty
bushels Of lime for the use Of the farm.
All Of which 10 respectfully submitted.

We might illustrate this by quoting absurdly
