THOMAS LANDING, Sept. 24ths 1850.

THOMAS LANDING, Sept. 24thS lS69.
Mr.. EDITOR, Dear Sir The Close of
this day finds the last basket of peaches
carefully slowed upon the |" barge" for
Philadelphia market. Til season has
been long one but as long as it has
been and the crowding of the road lead
ing to the landing, there has been no ac-
cident occurred. Yet the mutilated con-
dition of the main thoroughfare leading to
the landing, and the jaded and worn APP
pearance of the mules, that were used for
conveying peaches thither, indicate the
great amount of labor in preparing the
fruit for market.
But we bid adieu to the tolls and labors,
which the sight of those huge sheds sug-
gest, as well as the too familiar scenes, Of
the past eight weeks, never perhaps again
to witness their renewal in such vast pro-
portions. We speak so doubtingly merely
upon the opinion or probability that this
country will not be blessed again with
such an overwhelming crop of fruit.
We spoke in our former letter of thu
yield of peaches to tree, but we vii
state an instance of greater yield, if yor
will allow US, and the gentleman, VIII,
owns the trees, to which we refer, viii
pardon us for again using his name pub
licaHy in this connection.
From two hundred trees of the variet,
of White Fawn, j. W. Vandergrift
picked and shipped sixteen (1605) hun
dred and five baskets of peaches, yiel
of more than eight baskets per tree, an
from his orchard numbering 1850 trees
he shipped 33, 200 baskets of peaches.
The scope of country, from which tn
peaches were picked, that were shippe
from Thomas Landing is bounded by tn
Appoquinimink creek ON the east, mort
and west as far as Peterborough, fror
that point, taking direction diagonall
across to Hangman's creek, and froI
thence to the Bay, with the exception {
E. G. Fenimore's farm. The number c
trees bearing, on this block of land, the
ages varying from to 10 years, is 81 GOO
and the number of baskets they ha,
yielded (those shipped) amounts to 279
293. Respectfully, &c.

A DESPERATE DEFENCE nY A HnNa,

A DESPERATE DEFENCE BY HUNGAR-
IAN BRIeAND.-Paraga, small town in
Hungary, was lately the scene of despe-
rate tradegy. A famous bandit by the
name of Macsvansky had come to the town
to see his sweetheart. He was recognized
and informed upon. The house in which
he was found was surrounded and he was
summoned to surrender. He took refuge in
butcher shop in the basement and through
hole in the window fred upon the SOL
diers in front. For four hours the fight
continued, during which he constantly
broke out into fits of fierce laughter. He
wounded five Uhlans and the Commissary
Of. Police. When he had no more wads
he loaded with hundred form notes, and
the peasants gathered up whatever of the
fragments were to be found. At last the
house was fired. Upon this the brigand
burned up package of bank notes, open
ed the window and leaped out, revolver in
hand. The crowd scattered in all direc.
tions but before Macsvansky had gotten
twenty PAGES off he was killed by a dis.
charge of musketry from the troops.
