The Indications are clearly against
an average cutting. This fact Is hav-
ing its effect ON the market prices. -
Already the Richmond markets have
an upward tendency. Not more than
one-third of last years crop remains
unsold. As prices OF any c0mmodity
are always regulated by supply aud
demand, II Is evident, considering the
small quantity yet unmarketed, and
the prospects of the growing crop,
that prices will continue To advance.

An incident of the Burbridge raid
on the saltworks during the fall of 1854
has just come to hand that will bear
telling. A member of the thew Is
sue" whose bravery was scarce equal
to his interest for personal safety
while In u line of hattie spied a la rye,
hollow log lying on the summit of the
rugged cedar ridge near the residence
Governor Sanders. Watching FOR
favorable opportunity he succeeded
In crawling into the hollow of this log
unobserved. 1t was then late IN the
evening, and our troops soon fell back
u short distance towards the salt
works. Some Of the boys (uncon-
scious Of the animate patriotism
therein contained), before leaving
gave the aforesaid log a turn down
the hill, and 1t only stopped when it
reached the base. When the van
guard Of the raiders reached that point
they built fires and made believe they
intended occupying the position all
night. A huge fire was built against
our log, which soon made such head
way that poor COnied's quarters be-
came very uncomfortable. He was
painfully conscious that he had to
leave his hiding-place, and felt but
little consolation in escaping roasting
alive, to be made Il target for negro
soldiers to practice at Ivy fire. light.
So, putting ON as bold front as the
nature Of the case and his ebbing
lcourage would admit, he bounded
forth, yelling, "D-n you, do YOU

The Medical Independent cautions
persons against eating peaches IN the
evening, asserting that they ars de-
pressive to the circulation, and ex-
haust the system, owing to the prus-
sic acid they contain. Speaking oi
peaches, we would inform our lady
readers Of the method of preparing q
dish, which, we think, will be new
TO most OF them.
Here 1t is: Take good sized fire. e.
stone peaches, wipe them with a tow
el. haive them, aud place them fiat
side down In hot butter or lard. Let
them fry to nice brown, then turn
and fill the seed cup with sugar,
which, by the time. the fruit Is prop
erly coated, will be melted and form
with the juice Of the peach q nice
sirup. Serve up hot, and II you don't
tike them you need not repeat the
experiment. Most persons think the
dish superb one.

The following Is the experience Of q
mechanic, concerning the benefit of a
newspaper;
Twenty years ago, / lived In the
town Of d., In Indiana. On return
Ing home one night, for am carpen. er
by trade, saw little girl leaving
my door. My wife then met me at
the door with smile, which is en-
conraging to tired mechanic after a
hard days labor. She said Mrs. -,
had sent her little girl after their
newspaper which she had borrowed.
We sat down ut tea. We had only
been married six months, and Of
course had no children. My wife said
to me, calling me by my given name,
% wish you would subscribe for the
newspaper, for 1t Is so much comfort
to me when you are away from home.
My answer was, 81 would like to do
so, but you know owe little pay
meat ON the house and lot. 1t Will
be all can do to meet it." She said,
+" III you will take the paper will
sew for the tailor 60 pay for it.n I
subscribed for the paper. 1t came In
due time to my Office. Whilst rest
ing one noon and looking over saw
an advertisement of the County Com
missioners to let a bridge that was to
be built. put IN bid for builiing
the bridge, and ] got the job, on which
l cleared $500, which enabled me 10
pay for the house and lot easily, and
also for the newspaper. III had not
subscribed for the newspaper l would
have known nothing or the bridge
contract, and could not have met my
payment on my house and lot. AL
mechanic never loses anything by
taking his county paper.n
