The Gooseberry and currant.

PERMIT me to call the attention of fruit
growers to the cultivation of the gouseberry
and currant. No fruits of equal value are
so generally neglected as these arc. The
gooseberry is easily cultivated and marketed,
for barrels are one of the best packages to
ship them in, having them slightly ventila-
ted to prevent heating; and the prices gene
rally range from So to So per bushel in our
market. The light soil of Ocean Co., N. J.,
is peculiarly adapted to this growth, as they
ripen late, and arrive just in time to bring a
good price. This fruit is made use oflargely
by our city pie bakers.
The demand for the currant increases
every year. The preserving houses are using
large quantities, and thus keep prices high.
Last season prices ranged from ten to
fifteen cents per pound, and they sold
readily at those figures. 1t is true, that
under the old system of shipping this fruit,
much of it became damaged in the trans
portation, but now that is easily overcome
by those living at distance. Grape boxes
quantity in each box is small, and the ex-
press companies handle them carefully, SO
that little or no loss arises from that cause.
Another good arrangement for marketing
this fruit is to have number of small boxes
made to fit berry cases. These boxes
might contain about ten pounds each, with
the tare marked on each box, and the gross
tare on the case. This enables the dealer to
sell at the correct weight, and take the de-
posit only on the package. This is o very
good plan for those living near market,
who can have their cases returned without
additional expense. G. w. IDELL

Education In Il ent Co.. (urd,

In no county on the Peninsula, probably, are
the colored people more enthusiastic In the work
of educating themselves than 10 Kent county,
Maryland. The opposition to the work has died
away, and there Is either cordiafsympaihy or
entire acqniescenco among tho people generally.
We are informed that there are seventeen col
ored schools in successful operation In Kent
county. Fourteen of.them under the auspices Of
The Baltimore Association, and three under the
Freedman's Bureau. These schools are attended
by about 700 pupils, ranging from the ago of six
to thirty years. The schools have never yet re
ceived any State aid, although the property Of
oslored people has been regularly taxed Tor the
support OF schools. We arc told that The County
Commissioner are required to pay over pro-
rata share of school tax to tho colored people,
but having failed to do SO, legal proceedings
are about to be commenced for the recovery Of
the money.
The advanced condition of education In this
county amongst the colored people Is mainly duo
to tho uniting efforts of people of their own
color, amongst whom we might mertion the
names OF james sprlggs and wife, of Millngton,
VIM. Perkins, and Others, of Chesterlown, who
have been untiring 10 their zeal 10 elevate and

We made four boxes-twe of them dou-

es, and also placed two quarts on shelf in
our berry house. where they would get
plenty Of air. On Saturday evening, July
10th, we opened all the boxes, and found
the result the same in each case-the Ber-
ries were all spoiled. The two quarts on
the shelf, we allowed to remain another day.
and had them for tea on Sunday evening.
They were delicious, and there was not

THAT GENIAL IRISH GENTLEMAN, lawyer,
and Democrat, Mr.. John O'Byrne, who has
always been an Abolitionist, and now goes
for the good Democratic doctrine of Equal
Suffrage, will, we trust, soon make his ap-
pearance in the field, in Delaware. The
time is ripe for men Uf action and force.
The old fogies stand aghast at the 10Th
Amendment. The "White Mans Party
has died in its birth, and the Salisbury Ring
shake In their shoes. Senator Bayard has
grown SO demented that he not only de.
nounces Suffrage for poor men, but Educa-
tion, also. New is the time for O'Byrne.
Let US have thoughts that breathe and words
that burn, from his eloqueat Irish lips, and as
he has sometimes said he "deloights in the
encounters of the coorts," so, let us hope, he
will be equally cheerful in the tills of the
political field.

WHEN WE QUOTED the report of the Con-
gressional Committee ON the Decline Of
American Commerce, showing that 1t was
traced mainly, if not solely, to incidents
OF the war;" we regarded that as conclu.
sive, and SO. we presume, will the public.

that State Mr.. Calkin, of New York City,

cial interests Of that metropolis and the
other gentlemen, Democrats as well as Re-
publicans, who united in making the report,
but if SO, the growth of intelligence in the
Gazette is something altogether new, and
perfectly astonishing. 1t is not likely that
the Democrats OH the Committee would have
agreed to the report in its present form, II
they had thought, as the Gazette asserts,
that our Commerce Ii had declined because of
the legislation of Congress. So, If they
are not wrong, the Gazette is, as usual.

Death Of an Eminent Divine in In,
Meth0nlat EllacOpaI Church

Death Of an Emiusst Divine in the
Methodist Episcopal Church..
We have received information of the death
Of RevJohn McClintock, D. D President Of Drew
Theological Seminary, at Madison. New Jersey,
yesterday morning, March 4th, Of pneumonia.
The Doctor was for many years connected with
the Philadelphia Conference, was at one time
Professor In Dickinson College, and for four
years resided in Pnrls, as Chaplain of the Ameri-
can church In that city. For several years back
his time has been given chiefly to the education
of candidates for the ministry, and In the prepa-
ration and publication of cyclopedia of religious
literature, two volumes of which have already
been issued. This IL, without question, the abest
work Of tho hind In thc EDgiisii lang tuyr uuu
the volumes already published contain Il rich
treasury Of Theological subjects. 1t IS greatly to
be regretted that this master piece OF religious
Literature will be left IN half flushed condition.
As a gentleman, scholar and christian miDisier
DrMcCliutock had few equals in the country, per-
haps no superior.
His death will be mourncd not only by his own
denomination, but by nll, for he lived Tor all the
churchee. though devoiing himself specially 10
the interests Of the NJ. e. Church. He was an
earnest supporter of the Lay delegation move
ment In this church, and by his letters, speeches.
sermons and editorials he has done more per-
hnps, than any niher munster to bring about the
Introduction of the Lay element in the councils
of the church.

then put In open Crates and Baskets, and
at the same time, get the Railroad Co. to
furnish cars that are thoroughly ventilated,
there will be no more complaints on the part
OF the Grower. that his fruits reach market
In bad order, and no more letters from Com
mission men, saying, "Your berries were in
bad condition; If they had been in good or
der, they would have brought at least ten
cents quart more"
Now, in regard to the Crates aud Baskets.
Last season we used the American, which
we found great improvement over those of
the previous year; this year we propose to
use the Rochester Basket-sold by Stephen
Cox, of Philadelphia-as we think them
better ventilated than any other Crate and
Basket that we have met with.

Fruit and Corn.

PROSPECTS OF CHANGE ABOUT LAUREL
pEAou CROP IN DANaER-NKw pEpo,
WANTED.
Our peach growers have been somewhat
nervous during tine recent mild winter, fol
fear that 1t would result In serious injury tc
their crop, and since the recent cold snap,
In many minds the fear has changed to q
certainty.
Thousands of peach trees around Laurel
are in condition to bear this year, and
thousands of others are being planted every
year. If hard times and high freights do
not interfere, there is nothing TO prevent
this part of Sussex County being universal
ly planted with peach, apple and pear trees,
as well as with grapes, berries, and other
small fruits.
The farmers, as far as l have conversed
with them, appear fully convinced that the
raising of grain here is unremunerative, as
this portion of the country is unable to cope
with the great West in the production of
corn. They have been engaged in this un-
profitable way of farming until their land
has become destitute of the elements ne
cessary to the production of corn, and they
must necessarily resort to some new mode
OF farming, or allow their property to be
sold to pay the taxes (now very heavy) on
1t. The prospect of revolution in our me-
thods of farming is good, and this station is
likely to be one of the largest depots for the
shipment of fruit on the railroad between
Wilmington and Crisfield. We hope, by
the time this prospect Is realized, that the
Company will decide to erect Depot build
ings here, equal to the necessities of the sta
tion. This town has 1900 Inhabitants, does
large mercantile and lumber business,
and is entirely dependant on the ra
road for shipment and supplies, yet we
have one of the meanest and most misera-
BILE depots along the whole line, insufficient
for the proper transaction of the business
of the town, much less for any large ship
ment of fruit. Travellers, too, are poorly
accommodated, and daylight may be seen
through the roof OF the waiting room, which,
of course, affords but slight protection
against rain. AS Lumber can he purchased
here cheaper than at almost ony other place
on the Peninsula, we think we ought to have
new buildings. p

TIE PAPERS, especially those of New

in, are exercised about the Wyoming jury
which has eleven women In il. But did
they not notice the fact that the pan
el drawn was the "Grand Jury"
which contains, in most States, aud
most probably in Wyoming, also, twenty
four membersa This being the case, all
their little jokes about the twelfth juror,
being one unfortunate man, are at sea, with
out sail or rudder. Probably they supposed
all juries to ba composed of twelve persons.
