TIE FRUIT CROP OF NoRry-C,pon
One of the beneficial results of Ra;Irnad- :;
this State IS to be found in the great enconr
agement which has been given to the cnItur,
of fruit. 1t is estimated by comnetent ;rI
gcs that the cash return to fruit prowerg !,
this State for the last season, was not Ia.
than $4,000, 000; and others estimate i =
considerably more. Immense Quantities =
the article in its dried state are sent from o.
ange, Guilford, Davidson, Randolph. Chat
ham, and other Counties. The amounts~re aliza,
are clear gains, compared with the time wbey
there were no Railroads; for then there wa,
no market for the article at home. and n,
means Of getting to distant markets. A frien,
well acquainted with the Guilford region q
the State, and who is a close observer of mer
and things, gave it to us as his opinion no
long since, that the cash realized from drief
fruit alone in that regioni is equa! every year t.
the amount cleared by the farmers for the sam,
period ten years ago. on all the produce which
they sent to distant markets.
killing frost inst now would occasion sc
rious loss TO the fruit growers.-Stanaagl

Mr.. GoRMAN The following dream was
found in the Authors Album, in her own

FTMr. Raymond writes from Paris
under date Of the 10th ult. to his paper,
the New York Times:
The few days have spent here have
given me no opportunity to study any of
the questions connected with the war,
but they have been quite sufficient to
show very different feeling among the
people towards the Emperor from that
which has ever before prevailed. The
war itself is popular. and the splendid
victories with which it has opened have
reused :he feeling of the people into ab-
solute enthusiasm. Party lines, SO far
as the mass of the people are concerned.
seem t" be ex,inguished. The Republi
cans of Paris are among the warmest
supporters of the Emperor's policy, and
its only opponents aIe among the Or
leanist and Lcgitimist leaders, who do
not hesitate to confess that their hostili-
~ to the war is mainly due to the fact
that it strengthens the Emperor, and
renders their cause all the more hopes
| less.
French people themselves have long
| since forgi, en- the author o! the coup
d'e,at, and verify believe that France
never e"j yed a more thoroughly p"pu-
lar government, that she never had one
which more steadily consulted tie in
terests of the great mass of :he people,
or which was more warmly and stremu-
ously supported by them. 1t is quite
common in the United States, | an,
aware, TO account for the almost upani
nous support which the Emperor has
received at every popular election by
saying that votes were given under co.,
straint. and that the suffrage wa, not
free. To certain extent this is proba.
bly, true; but in spite If all deductions
to be made Oh this account. believe
three fourths of all The people Of France
would vote Tomorrow, if perfectly free
in favor of Napoleon III, and his gov
ernment as against any other that coult
he offered them. This opinion will
probably shock the Tribune, but be-
Iieve it to be Just.

RHUBARB WINE.-Loutzenheiser of
Grass Valley. sent us on Monday bol>
tie of that rhubarb wine we gave an ac-
count of some time since. Capt. Shoe
maker was the polite bearer of dispatch
es on this occasion. We found the wine
quite drink able, but as full of drunk as
BlaSc's. There is smell Of rhnbarb
about it, which is by no means disagree
able. and the taste is quite pleasant
Loutzenheiser obtained knowledge OF
making rhubarb wine from an English
Encyclopedia. from which also the in
formation was obtained that the article
was manufactured in Great Britain four
hundred years ago. A little more age
and Loutzenheisee' wine will be excel
lent. 1t is supposed to possess cathar'
qualities and therefore to be valuable
for medicinal purposes. 1t is tip-toE
medicine anyhow.

But two or three posters were stuck
about town giving notice of the compn-
ny's arrival, and in consequence small
house was in attendance. The plays
went off in satisfactory manner, and
tie negro part of the performance con-
vulsed the house with laughter. The
company must employ a more competent
bill stcker to insure success. Laziness
or inefficiency in that line can not Sc
cure good houses.
