The Annie I,r,n.

A journey through the six New England
States and portion of New York reveals
the fact that the apple crop is equally
abundant in all quarters. The trees every
where are loaded with this staple fruit
Along the Hudson, from Troy to Pough-
keepsie, it is nearly the same as in Con-
neeticut; the apple trees are loaded. In
some of the towns about this city the trees
are kept from breaking down by props
and stays. Golden Sweets" sell to deal
ers for 81 per barrel and purchasers are
scarce even at that rate. Many farmers
are feeding them out to their stock. In
Maine it is the same. A large dealer here
refused, last week, to take Rhode Island
greetings, deliverable in October, at any
price above 81 a barrel 1t is a great wear
for apples, and there is ''fair to mlddline"
prospect of an abundant product of cider
the coming fall.-HartfO q Times.

The Next Great Work of the British
Cove rmmenE.

Very few people, the London Spectator
suspects, as yet understand the enormous
Importance and completely of the next
great task which the Government. stands
pledged to undertake. Mr.. Gladstone has
promised next session to reform our whole
system of local Government, with a view
to its reinvigOratiOn in the respective sense
that is, he has pledged himself to eX-
anime, readjust, and tighten a system of
taxation as complex and almost as burden
some as that of the kingdom before the in
PRODUCTION of free trade, to invade the last
stronghold of privilege, and to devise a
representative constitution applicable to
provinces hitherto governed almost ex-
clusively by nominees Of the Crown. With
the towns, which are included in the
scope OF his measures, there will not, We
imagine, be much difficulty. If the Pre-
mier, with his splendid genius for finance,
can devise new modes of giving them reve-
nue., so as to prevent the increasing pres
sure OH rental from becoming dangerous to
civilizatiOn-which requires that the peo-
pie be we'll lodged-he will add greatly to
his popularity, but we imagine that no very
radical change will be made in the princi-
pie or municipal taxation. We wish it
could be made, that the millionaire could
at least be made to pay a little more Cor
llIo Anulli1Pd' PlI'h0S0o Choll ClO pIoICo-
sional man who happens to occupy as large
a house, but the difficulties in the way
may prove too great for even Mr.. Glad
stones courage and tenacity. 1t is in the
counties that the change must be greatest,
and in the counties that the difficulties
will be the most numerous and the most
embarrassing to Government which, it
self composed ill great part of squires, has
always to reckon on such matters with the
banded squrearchy. The ballot will
greatly facilitate reform i'll this direction;
but even with the ballot hanging over them,
the squirearchy will not, We predict, yield
a jot of their privileges without forcing
dissolution.

The Ring ON the Rampage.

In reviewing the recent elections in North
Carolina, and the exceptional causes which
operated to affect it, our correspondent at
Raleigh gentleman in every way respon-
sible and reliable-stated that he person
ally saw and conversed with several ne
groes from this city recently in the employ.
of the Board of Public Works, who, with
TOO others, had been sent down to that
State, under the thin disguise of "an ex-
cursiOn," to carry out the Radical princi-
pie of reform, by voting early and often for
the Grant Ticket. Upon inquiry here, we
ascertained to our entire satisfaction, that
a steamer had been chartered on the eve
of the election, her berths temporarily re-
moved, and other changes made to accom-
modate cargo of pretended negro lex
cursionists" to Norfolk. Further, that a
large number had been transported by
railroad-all men in both cases. Suisse
quent information authorized the convic-
ton that the real number of repeaters was
greater than first stated, and hence we said
in our issue of the 18th instant, sit is now
understood that the Board of Public
Works, who run thu District for their
own profit, by the faTOr and appointment
of the President, sent nearly 900 negro re-
peaters to North Carolina, instead of 100
as previously reported"
If the testimony had been less explicit
than tits, our beliefin The shameful scheme
would have been fully justified, by the
pr actices under our own eyes, which have
disgrace this Capital, and prostituted the
ballot-bOx to the vilest and most venal pur-
poses of partisanship. Negroes were i'm
| ported by thousands from Virginia and
Maryland, colonized here and marched to
! the polls like focks of sheep to sustain a
/ ticket last year, dictated by and wholly in
the interest of the Board of Public Works.
The Territorial Legislature, who are the
servile tools of the Board, and the Delegate
in Congress, whose first idea of duty is ODE
dience to its orders; were " returned" by
means of this corrupt importation. We say
returned" because it was shown upon
the basis of p p llation and by the registry,
that some 200 negroes must have repeat;
ed, according to the approved Radical
method in Philadelphia, by which Colonel
Mcclure was counted out of the seat, to
which he had been fairly elected by ma
jOrity of several thousands.
These are few of the many reasons
why we have credited and renew our con-
fdcnce in the information Of negro re-
peaters having been sent to North Caro-
lima. 1t is no greater crime to use them
there than in Washington, where the
frauds have been SO fragrant.

their silence, during the coming campaign.

A Cannon that VIII Throw a Five Ton
Ball.

A new idea for heavy ordnance is pro-
posed by Bessemere, the inventor of the
cheap process of making STEEL Instead of
setting fire to all the powder in his gun at
once, lie divides his charge into different
cells and explodes them successfully, al
going off before the ball leaves the gun,
and each giving it a new impulse. He
wants now to make cannon twenty yards
long, with bore of thirty inches and walls
eight inches thick, and with this he will
fire shell weighing five tons. Such pro-
9ctile striking any existing iron-clad ship

sink her at the first pop, and would seri-
Ously damage our strongest Notifications.

Probable War Between Russia and
Shina-PreparAliO at ST. Peters
bnrS and Rekin.

A letter from st. Petersburg in the
Schlesische Zeitung says that Russia is
preparing for war with China. The ter
ritory of kOuldscha, Oh the western from
tier Of the laster country, was, as is known,
occupied by the Russian troops last year,
and China now intends to regain posses
sion of it. The Mahommedan population,
however, are SO hostile to the Chinese
Government that they have declared they
will put to death any Chinese official who
appears in this country. This would of
course lead to conflict, in which Russia
will doubtless take the part of Kouldscha
against its so-called OppressOrs. The gov
eminent at Pekin seems to be already an
ticipating such contingency, for it is
building ironclads and employing 1900
men daily in the preparation of guns and
ammunition, and has sent agents among
the Russian Khirgis to induce them to re-
sumo their old allegiance to China.
