The BEER-HoUsE RArD.-A large portion
of those arrested in No. &c st. Charles
street, Wednesday night, were discharged
by Recorder Houghton, yesterday. Some
were fined from one dollar to twenty-five.
James Flynn, the reputed proprietor. was
fine twenty-five dollars. This raid, it is
thought, will in part break up considerable
rascality, which was regularly practiced by
-frequentcrs of the house. Several respect
able persons were in the place when it was
seized, and found that such diversion ia

Mr. EDIToR.-Three of the committee on COM
missions and sales, Charles Brown, H. N. Willis
and myself, went to New York on the Both ult.
The next day we met the committee on the part
of the peach statesmen of New York, and also sew
eral of the principal statesmen not on the commit
tee We had q very satisfactory meeting, and it
agreed that hereafter all peaches sold at Jer-
sey City the purchaser should pay for carting and
other expenses. In other words, all sales made
at Jersey City are to be final, and all purchasers
of peaches in baskets will be required by the
statesmen to pay 25 cents for each basket and
when said basket is returned rs cents is to be re-
turned to the buyer. Arrangements were also
made with F. W. Jackson, superintendent OF the
Jersey Railroad, at Jersey City, for better accom-
modatons for the peach trade and the statesmen.
The interest of the Delaware peach growers and
shippers and our statesmen at New York and ].
City should be the same. At our next meeting
at Dover shall propose that we appoint n COM
mittee of five statesmen TO see that said promised
accommodations at Jersy City by the Railroad,
are carried out in good faith. If not, said COM
mittee TO report to our Association, so that we
can have the matter attended TO. The safe de-
livery of the empty baskets in Delaware, and the
ascertaining of their number, must be arranged
on some satisfactory plan to do justice to the
growers and shippers ana also the N. Y. sales
| men. Some third party, or satisfactory person
to both parties will have to be appointed to count
| the returned empty baskets. Where there is an
honeSt intention, Sucn as tnat evlnced at our nee-
| ting in N. York last week, all minor details of
the great peach growing interest can be satisfac-
torily arranged. | hope there will be good at
tendance of growers at the Middetown meeting
on the 10th inst. so that we can come TO an un-
dersandng before the Dover meeting of the 10th
inst. at which propositions from the Railroad
Companies for freighting for SllO per car load OF
l6 900 lbs. from Dover, as the centre the other
sliding scale, of $l3o per car load, if the crop
reaches 900, 900 baskets and SIS deduction on
every hundred thousand above so0,o until il
reaches fifteen hundred thousand, then the freight
from Dover to be Sl0o. | am decidedly in favor
of this last proposition, for there is a prospect o.
the crop going largely over that nuElber of bas
kets, or even 1000, 600; and with the new raj
roads and The new orchards, there is very littl,
danger of the crop, for many years, falling unde
fifteen hundred thousand, and as n consequence
SlO0 freight from Dover, less above and NOR
below that point. SAMUEL TOWNSEND.

Corn REQUIRES RICH SoIL.-Corn ex-
tracts from the soil nearly seventy per Ct
more mineral matter than wheat Hence
the necessity for using liberal quantity
of manure in order to meet the require
ments Of this plant. A farmer who prac-
tices true economy will use manures freely.
The old maxim 80 Feed your land, and
it will feed you," is as true as the day it
was uttered and unless it be needed, poor
crops and exhausted land will be the con
sequence of its neglect. Such manures as
Whann's Raw Bone Superphosphote, which
contains every element of plant food, not
only produce large crops, but permanently
improve the land. This celebrated ferti-
lizer has now been before the public eleven
years, its sales increasing rapidly every

for it as it is possible to have. Only a
valuable article could stand the test of time.

The INcoME TAx.-The money article
Of the Philadelphia Ledger of Wednesday,
contains the following in reference to this
subject. r..
There is very little said or doing in Con-
gress on that most important of all the
measures pending in that august body.
We mean the Income Tax law or rather
that which was the Income Tax law, for we
contend that the law that was expired with
the year 1869. We know that the House
ofReprcsentative Of passed resolution, about
the 10th of January, favoring the Commits
sioner's Interpretation of the continuance
Of the law through the year 1870, and
that, near the close of March, Mr.. Sher-
man proposed in the Senate to levy the
tax at 5 per cent. through the present
year, and at three per cent afterwards,
without any change whatever either in the
exemptions or the modes of collection.
This crude measure will satisfy neither
the friends of judicious tax on income,
nor the opponents of all such imposts.
The whole thing, and all its costly machi-
merry for enforcing it, should be utterly
wiped out. The tax imposed by it is ex-
cessive, unequal in its application, exceed
ingly ipauisitorial in its operation, and
every way odious. 1t cannot be SO amen.
ded as to make 1t satisfactory to the coun.
try. 1t has got to be rooted out, extirpa.
ted. One of the issues in many district,
at the next Congressional election will b,
this very income tax--and woe betide tn,
candidate for reelection. who cannot show
clear and satisfactory record in the pas
on the question. The feeling of opposi
tion is daily spreading, aid the exaspera
tion of taxpayers is hourly heightened b.
the outrage of inforcing a law after it ha
ceased to be operative by limitation, anc
by the arbitrary conduct of those seeking
TO continue it for their own pecuniary ad
vantage. These office leeches have com
TO like their gripe on the people. Thi
power to inspect and criticise the mos
private affairs is found agreeable as wei
as profitable. 1t gives besides great op
portunity for controlling, directing, o
Furnishing those whose cooperation in po
litical movements may be desired or ha
been refused; and it is rod of terror, G
which fresh uses are learned every day
This cannot be tolerated.
