New Jersey Potatoes.

A vessel arrived at the first wharf below
Market street q few days ago, loaded with
potatoes, from Salem and Burlington counties,
N. j. They were raised from a new variety
of seed, called the " Peach Blow" introduced
here by Mr.. John R. Sears, of New York, on
account of their prolific growth and their ex-
cellent quality, and certainly aner POTATOES
were never il four market. Mr.. S. had II, 900
barrels of seed and to induce persons to take
it, he engaged to buy all the potatoes raised
from it at 60 cents a bushel.
Farmers in Salem and Burlington counties
n j., planted the seed, and some 25, 900 bush
els of potatoes have been raised, four thousand
bushels Of WHICH are nGw 10 tho market. In
Salem county, two acres of gropnd were plant.
ed with FIVE barrels of the seed, and 500 bush=
els Of potatoes were raised. In Burlington,
one acre planted with three and a half bushels
of seed, raised 1873 bushels Of potatoes. The
ordinary product per acre is from two to three
hundred bushels. The seed is better adapted
to the soil Of New Jersey and Pennsylvania
than it is to New York, and The climate is
more favorable to the full development Of the
potato. Certainly, raising potatoes in these
quantities, to retail OF one dollar per bashel,
is a profitable operation -Phladdpdta Ledger.

Suicide of Desling, the Prussian
Forger.

A letter from Paducah. Ky dated on the
10th, saysl 1.-The Prussian forger. Desling.
better known as Mr.. Forma, destroyed himself
by blowing out his brains, a few days ago, at
Memphis. His wife, a jolly d~aneuse, was in
expectation Of his return to Paducah, but as
soon as she heard Of his death she thought of
a ready consolation, and got married the same
day to a young fellow, one among her neweSt
acquaintance" Desling, it will be recollected
gave the Prussian government a good deal of
trouble, ON account of a scheme Of forgery,
which he contrived and partially executed on
one OF the Prussiau banking houses. He fled
to the United States, was pursued, eluded his
pursuers until his arrival at Chicago, played
an engagement at IA theatre, and there, also
met his wife, proceeded to st. Louis, and
thence to Paducah, where he was arrested
The sympathies of the people were excited in
his favor, Oh an examination before the court,
it was decided that the papers did not present
a case for the operation Of the extradition
treaty, and he was released.
