Harvest.

EE- The harvest weather has been
magnitic nl-warm, dry, and favorable
in every particular. Wheat and Oats
are all cut, and the work of stacking is
going forward. The universal testimony
now is that the yield has never been
better in this vicinity, nor has the quail

ED- As evidence of the position which
Gen. MCCLELLAN occupies in the public
mind, it is only necessary to say that the
mob Of cut-throats and outlaws, who
robbed. and burned. and pillaged, aud
murdered. IN New York. visited the res
idence Of Gen. MCCLELLAN. and gave
three cheers for Little Mac" The
mob which also attacked the Mercury
Office, in Newark, New Jersey, cheered
for JEFF DAVIS, Gen. MCCLELLAN, and
Frrz JOHN PORTER. This shows how
Little Mac" has identified himself with
treason and traitors.

Fruit.

Eg One Of the most annoying things
experienced by all fruit growers. is the
disposition OF th,ughtless and malicious
boys and young men to rob orchards and
melon patches. In country like this,
where fruit is so rare, and of conse-
quence so valuable and highly priced,
ii is more thar provoking to find that or
chards and gardens have been invaded,
and trees and vines stripped of fruit.
And yet it is done every fall, and done,
in many instances, by men aud boys who
would be 10th to believe themselves wor-
thy the epithet of thief. However, it
may be well for them to realize that the
law so regards them, and has affixed to
such actions the penalties for thievery.
The last Legislature, for the protection of
fruit growers, and in obedience TO their
general demand. passed the following
act, making the entering of any inclo-
sure and taking therefrom the fruit OF
any tree, shrub, fruit or vine, a criminal
act, the offender to be proceeded against
as in other cases of larceny, and to suf-
fer the same penalties. II would be well
for boys 10 bear this matter in mind:
