scribers the Hiawa,ha Sentinel has in

important business to occupy his time.
and a more correct appreciation of the
proprieties of his official position, than
to run around retailing such gossip. Bat
If the editor of the Sentinel should ever,
BY any freak of nature. express an origi-
nal or independent opinion Of his own.
aud it should not exactly tally with the
local zeal of his subscribers here. we hope
none of them will stop the paper on that
account. with the idea that they are Grip
pling his business. That is the surest
indication of small potatoes.

~ We learn from the St. Joseph
Gazette. that Mayor Hall has contrac
ed for l25 tons or iron, to complete The
first fifteen miles of the Denver Road, to
be delivered in Elwood, at Sl4 per ton.
As it requires over 100 tons Of iron
for mile Of track. we presume negotia-
tions will soon be set on foot for iron to
lay the remaining mile and three-quar-
ters.
Mayor Hall is extremely lucky in End.
ing place where he can get iron SO
cheaply. English iron is cheaper than
American, and that costs $55 per ton,
in gold. delivered on ship-board at Car
diff. in Wales-making the price about
$50. by the time it reaches here. John
Burnside pays from $50 to $50 per ton
for old scraps and castings.

Grant and johnson.

The Washington correspondent Of the
Baltimore Sun writes as follows concern
ing the embarrassment caused by General
Grants refusal to be brought in contact
with Andrew johnson: a
1t is said the committee managing the in
auguration ceremonies have felt some en-
barrassment about the existing unpleasant
personal difference between President
johnson and Gen. Grant.
Custom would require that the commit
tee provide for the incoming and outgo-
ing Presidents to ride together to the cap
itol on fourth of March, but Gen. Grant
has plainly indicated that he will not ride
to the capitol in company with Mr.. John
son,
The latter has not been consulted on
the subject by the committee, nor has he
said anything to any one authorized to
speak for him about the matter, SO far as
known.
In view of Gen. Grants refusal to come
in contact with President johnson, the
committee may not communicate with the
latter relative to the ceremonies, but, how.
ever this may be, President johnson will
probably relieve all parties of embarrass
ment in the case, by quietly repairing, a
10 o'clock, March 4th, to the President
room, adjoining the Senate, according tc
custom, on the last day of the session, ant
there remain with his cabinet until noon
the hour when his official term expires, +
consider bills that may be presented fol
his signature.
If this usual course be pursued, he will
not, therefore, be party to the procession
and other ceremonies which will be in pro
gress at the same time in the streets of tn
city, and the committee and all other par
ties will thus be relieved of the dreaded
embarrassment.

THE UNION PACIFIC RAILRoAD.-We
invite attention to Messrs DeHaven &
Bros (the Philadelphia Bankers) adver-
tisement of Union Pacific Railroad First
Mortgage Bonds, in another column.
Messrs. DeHaven & Bro were among the
earliest and most efficient advocates of this
great work and the Company's securities.
To make assurance of their value doubly
sure, one of the firm went over and care
fully examined the entire line last season,
SO that they might know from personal OBJ
seryation whether the road was thoroughly
constructed or not. Hisreport was entire
ly satisfactory to the house. Confident
that the work is well built, and that the
earnings will be very large, so as to make
the bORds perfectly secure, they recon-
mend them to their customers as one Of

A BREAK DowN-While the Lewes
Glee Club were giving Concert at Mil
ton on Wednesday evening 10th inst at
the Academy, the floor gave way and pell
NELL down came the people floor and all.
There were about two hundred persons in
the upper story at the time the floor gave
way, some parties who were standing on
the first floor were caught in trap.
strange to say no body was hurt seriously
But such screaming and hallooing never
was heard before. Torn dresses, broken
shins, scratched faces and hands are thick
as hops in Milton.

The PEACH PROSPECT. seems TO
be diversity of opinion among our ex-
perienced fruit growers rerative to the ef-
feet the recent warm spell has had upon
our next summers crop of peaches. Some
contend that the buds are sufficiently swol-
len to be affected by the cold, should any
be experienced, while others are equally
tenacious to IAN adverse opinion. They
all admit that the buds are swollen, but
differ in regard to the degree. This we
imagine, depends altogether upon the quail
ity of the soil ON which the trees stand.
Those en- light, sandy soils. are more ad-
vanced than those on heavy clay land, and
we would not be the least surprised if some
orchards are an entire failure again this
year.-SasseC Journal
