A SINGULAR FAcT.-The peach was
originally poisoned almond. Its feshy
parts were used to poison arrows, and the
fruit was for this purpose introduced into
Persia. The transportation and cultivation,
however, not only removed its poisonous
qualities, but produced the delicious fruit
we now enjoy.
We take the above from the Wacerly
Magazine, of the goth Of January, 1861
We have often heard it said that the plant
ing of peach-stone on this island would
produce the almond, such as may be seen
in the custom-house grounds on this island
and in several of the yards occupied by the
citizens.
We are willing to be qualified on oath
that some eighteen months ago we plant
ed two peach-stones as an experiment for
raising the peach on this island. We now
have in lieu of the peach the coarse, hard
stone almond, similar to those above men
toned. We are not aware of any poison
Gus qualities in this almond, although we
have heard that children have died from
the effects of eating them, which might have
occurred from having eaten almost any
other green fruit in excess. We have cat
en- the fruit ourself without having been
poisoned. Can any of our friends throw
light upon the subject ?-Key Vest Dis

General Candy ana the Virginia Election.

We have the information that General Can
by has sent circulars to all the members elect
Of the Virginia Legislature asking OF each
if he can take the iron-clad oath of loyalty to
the Union; that ifhe can thus raise quail
fled quorum of both houses he will issue q
proclamation converting the Legislature to
ratity the fifteenth amendment and elect
United States Senators; but that if quorum
of iron-clad oath members cannot thus be
procured, the commanding general of the
military district of Virginia will order new
elections to fill the seats made vacant by
reason of inability to take the oath aforesaid.
This plan of operations it is conjectured
will secure two ultra radical United States
Senator's in the exclusion of the large num-
Der of conservative members elected to the
Legislature who cannot take the iron-clad
oath that they have never given aid and COM
fort to the rebellion,- &c. General Candy
may also plead that according to the letter
of the law he is compelled to enforce this
oath; but he did not enforce it in the recon-
struction of South Carolina He admitted
members of that initial Legislature who could
not take the iron clad oath and why, then,
should he apply a different construction of
his duty under the law in regard to the initial
Legislature of Virginia Why should he
make fish of one and flesh ofthe other The
duly registered voters of Virginia under the
reconstruction laws of Congress, moreover,
in fair election have voted that the political
disabilities attached to men giving aid and
comfort to the rebellion shall be removed,
and proper respect for this Judgment of the
people, resulting from the express instruc-
tons of President Grant requires that atleast
the same liberality extended by General Can
by to South Carolina shall be given to Vir-
ginia If necessary we hope that General
Grant will interpose a special order to Gen
eral Candy to interfere no further, whatever
may be the demands of the defeated Radi-
calls, to change the results of the late Vlr-
ginia election, but fairly to give the conser.
vatives the fruits of the victory they have
fairly won.-N. Y Herald.

"He has 'whacked bulls in Wyoming,
skinned mules in Colorado, jammed gold

been captured by Indians in New Mexico,
ranched with greasers in Arizona, slept
with Cinnamon in California, and has dead

of her bedroom in her night clothes, and
taking the family dog with her, went to
neighbours some forty rods away, and into
their strawberry patch. She was seen by
some one soon after, to go home. Her
parents were awakened by her crying at
the front door, and on letting her in, she
told where she had been, but was still
asleep, as she knew nonhing of the affair in
