OIr. J. Crane, ore of the veternn fruit
growers of New Jersey, says that the best
medicine for sick or delicate children IS
Strawberries. At a late meeting Of the
Fruit Growers Club, he remarked that
whenever any Of his children were taken
sick in winter or early. spring, be tried to
keep them along with as little medicine as
possible until Strawberries began to ripen;
then they were let loose In the patch{ and
all other medicine was laid aside as. use
less.

From our Mnryand exchanges OF Satur-
day We make the following extracts In rcla-
tion 10 the crops:
From the Keut Newsl
The corn In almost every plrt Of this
county Is suffering greatly for the want of
rain, and even should the season be favor
able from this time, the crop will hc short y
many places.
From the Cecil Democrat
Flkton and the upper part Of the county
have been several times recently visited with
copious showers, while other parts are still
parchlng. In Sassafras Neck no rain of
consequence has fallen for five weeks, and
the corn crop is so wlted that 1t Is past re-
covery. On Sunday night and Monday last
rain fell in abundance hereabouts, aud again
on Tuesday In the vicinity Of Northeast, as
well as pals of the county bordering on
Pennsylvania, were abundantly watcrcd,
while the lower districts arc still dry and
parched. Farmers from below say that In
any event their corn crop must be short,
and unless rain speedily comes 1t must prove
an entire failure.
from the 81 Mary's Beacon.j
Notwithstanding the splendid promise OF
au unusually large yield ofwhcat this season
In our county, VIC think II tolcrably certain
that only an average crop will he gnrncrcd.
The wheat locked healthy up TO harvest,
aud more vigorous growth of straw was
never seen upon our lands within our Tcco!-
lection. The fan, however, SO far as 1t has
been thus far used, shows n very wide diff
ference between the number Of bushels ex-
pected and the number realized. The one
good thing about the present crop Is the
character of the grain. A better we have
never seen. The greatest falling oil has
been In the red wheat. Under tho inspira-
ton of the late coplous rains the corn and
tobacco crops are moving on finely. Com
plants ofthc horn-worm still continue from
the tobacco growers. The oat crop will be u
comparative failure-at least We lave been
SO Informed by an observant farmer. Taking
It up one side and dowh the other We can
see no special reason at present for rejoicing
on the part OF our farmers. We hope crops
are better In our sister counties, aud we are
thankful they are no worse here.
From the Carroll County Sentinel
During the past week the farmers have
been harvesting their oats, aud We learn
that the crop i'll be very fine one, aud the
grain of excellent quality. Wheat of the
new crop Is coming Into market. Generally
the quality Is excellent, the grain being
large and well maturcd.
Iron the ST. Michlels Comet
We have this week gone pretty well
through the lower district of Talbot, from
Bay Hundred 10 Enston. From actual OBJ.
servation we can say that the corn generally
Is not looking well. On the road as far as
Easton there arc but very few of what might
be termed good fields. The drought was very
severe, and in many fields the cora shows
the effects plainly enough. The shntter
worm has also been very severe. Some
fields that we have seen are terribly shat
tered by this pest, which seems to accom-.
rany dry weather.

The Coal Question-whst Shall W.
DO About Hr


Arc we always topay from ten to fifteen
dollars per ton for Pennsylvania coal when
1t can DO afforded here, and We ought to get
II, at six dollars ton 7
II Is generally believed that tho stake
among the minors which occurred some time
ago-yas the work not OF tho miners, but OF
the ooal ds~lers and monopollsts, whose oh.
ject was TO create q scarcity Of coal, take
advantage OF II and compel the people to
pay them Just what they pleased to charge.
Now, this system Of swindllng the public
out Of hundreds Of millions Of dollars has
been In operation about long enough; but II
will continue al itlfHiiUm If the people who
suffer will only patiently bear 1t.
But what Is TO be done We must have
coal, and TO get II must pay the price de-
mandcd, at loast for the present. Would II
not be we'll for those Interested to act In con.
cert II we cannot reduce the price Of coal
this year, we can mako strong appeal TO
Congress to remove tho duty from foreign
coal, and thus break up the monopoly which
Pennsylvania has SO long enjoyed and
abused. A SUFFERER.

PROGRESS or SURVEYS IN CoLoRADo.-
Commissioner Wilson, of the General Land
Office, has Just received adylces from the
Surveyor General at Denver, Colorado,
showing the completion of the SUI ;ey Of
two additional tow nshlps in Costllla county,
in the northern part Of San Luis Park.
This survey embraces I'll the arabic lands
in the sayuache Valley not previously sur
yeyed. These lands are well watercd by the
sayuache river, which ful fishes abundant
facilities for irrigation, as well as good
water power. The soil is very fertile, capa-
Die of producing excellent crops of cereals
and vegetables. The meadows along the
river furnish an abundant supply OF hay
and pasturage. The valley is capable o.
supporting a large population, rrd the set
Element Is growing steadily. The San Luis
Park is one OF the most fertile regions In
Southern Colorado, and offers some fine in
ducements to those intending to locate In
the Southwest.

CooLIE IMPoRTATION.-Thc Secretary OF
tho Treasury is IN receipt of letter from
the collector of customs at New Orleans,
covering a communication of William Nc
Creery, relative to the importation Of coolies
into the country, and asking instructions of
the Department. He replies that McCreely
mistakes in stating that the act of February,
1869, prohibiting American citizens from en-
gaging in the coolic trade, has been abro-
gated.
On the 10th Of January, 1867, a resolution
was passed unanimously by both houses Of
Congress expressing the Adherence of the
people OF the United States for the coollc
trade, and In conformity with this resou-
tion Secretary McCulloch addressed TO the
collector of New Orleans the letter of the
18th of August, 1867. Additional article b
TO the treaty between the United States and
tho Chinese empire, concluded at Washing
ton on the 2Sth of July last, and which now
awaits the action of the Emperor, reprobates
any other than voluntary emigration, and
agrees to make 1t penal offence to take
Chinese subjects from China without their
free and voluntary consent. The DepaI y
ment OF State, by circular of January II,
1867, addressed to ministers and cousuls Of
the United States directs that tho consul
at every port where coolies may embark be
required to certify, after full examination.
that such 5mbarEat Is not forced or pro.
cured by fraud, but is voluntary, and re-
quires that such ministers and consuls use
all the authority, power and influence at
their command towards preventing and dis.
couragng the carrying on of the traffic re.
fcrred to In any way. Such being the facts
In the case, the collector Is authorized and
directed to use all vigilance In the suppress.

alleged that one Frederick Meyer, alleged to

urday. 1t is alleged that the alleged party,
charged with an alleged fraud upon an al
legged osernment, assisted in some way in

ern Union Telegraph Company transmitted
1867 900 kilograms per annum. In no
country in Europe is the telegraphc admin
istration connected with the postofice. In
France and Spain the telegraphs are under
the control of the Ministers of the Interior.
In Russia, Prussia and Italy they belong to
the Ministers Of Public Works. In Belgium
the telegraph, railways and the postoffice
form general division, under the Minister
Of Public Works, but are kept distinct. In
Austria the administration of the telegraph
and the postofices were once united, but it
was found expedient to separate them. In
Switzerland the Geographic organization is
nearly the same as in Prussia. The extent
of the lines and wire belonging to the West
ern Union Telegraph Company is more than
twice that of France, three times greater than
that of Prussia. and equals the aggregated
system of Austria, Prussia, the lesser Ger
man States, Italy, Spain, Belgium and
Switzerland; and It is Increasing in larger
ratio than any European system. The
Western Union telegraph has added to its
lines during the year 1868 more than 5000
miles Of wire; or A. much as the entire
system Of Belgium. In no country in the
world is there so vast system of lines, under
one control, as in this country.
