Young Misses school at Frenchtown, n. J.

Of late various plans have been devised for the
furtherance of the cause of education and for the
upbuilding of our schools, both Public and Pri-
vate, and thus far has each attempt proved a
failure. On Monday last school for young
Misses was opened, under the care of Miss FRANK
E. HAUD, and we believe under quite hattering
auspices. Miss Haud is young lady fully quail
fed to fill that position--being a graduate of
the "Opheleton Female Seminary" at Plain
field, n. j. We hope she may be successful in
her great and noble undertaking and that For
tune may smile upon her in her every effort to do
good.

AnOver.

During the present week the peach trade, from
this section Of the State, will wind up 1t is
estimated that $4,000 baskets of peaches have
been forwarded from the several stations on the
B. D. r. r. during the past season, being an
advance over last year Of IA, 900 baskets. The
average receipts per basket, may be set down
at $I.75, and the expenses incurred carting,
freight charges, commission agents fees, &c, at
90 per cent. of the above. Taking into consid-
GRAFTON the number of orchards which will be
prolific next year, we may reasonably expect the
productions of next season to exceed that OF the
past one, at least SO per cent. Many acres OF
land, which heretofore has been considered worth
almost nothing, have been brought into requlsi-
ton and set out with trees, and now yield more
profit to their owners than lands Of high price
and luxuriant SOIL

The Fair.


We attended the exhibition of the Hunterdon
County Agricultural Society last week We
numbered ourselves with the three hundred which
left Lambertvile in the regular train, on Thurs
day morning, with one thought uppermost in
our mind, viz !: Glands off, !" Arrived at Elem
ington we piled promiscuously into a species of
vehicle, driven by our friend Cramer of dog
power notoriety. We came in collision with
only one obstacle during passage to the
place of exhibition, and that obstacle was rem
dered rather the worse of the combat as the last
glimpse we had of it showed wagon top resting
on the ground and heterogeneous mass of fell
loes, spokes. hubs, &C., lying by the roadside.
No one to blame, as such things are the natural
consequence of the use of too much bad rum.
Upon arriving at the fair grounds we had the
good pleasure of meeting our friend Pressure,
who had been indulging his appetite for novel
ties, by twisting the compass, for which he
PAID seventy cents, and received in return for
the expenditure two brass rings and breastpin,
studded with red stones Pressure voted this a
humbug, and determined to test his strength at
the lifting machine, which machine, according to
the talk of the shaved headed fellow who acted
as boss " to score Of rascally pickpockets and
roughS" was the greatest of natural curiosi-
ties, and warranted to test a MANS strength to
the sixteenth of an ounce Pressure lifted 900
pounds more than had ever before been lifted nv
living man SO shaved head " said, and SO he
told every one. We refused the invitation Of
our friend to tread the uncertain paths beyond
the limit of plain seeing, not wishing to make
the acquaintance of formidable array Of pro-
lfessionals, but pushed on through the crowd Of
