The young man above named, died on
Tuesday night. of delirIum tremens,
and we deem the occasion of his death
calls for more than a passing notice.
Jimmy Holland has been in and about
this town since his boyhood, and has
led a very erratic life. He was a
young man, of progressing appear
ance, OF considerable natural ability,
and has mad more friends to ndeavor
to reclaim him from his dissoluto bah
its than any youth in these parts. We
understand his father to be a man of
means in California, but presume the
evil habits of deceased had caused the
father to cast him off. We do not de
sign writing of the bad habits of de
ceased for anv other motive than to
hold him NJ as an example, warning
to the Young men of this town. The
demon of incompetence has snatched
one victim-taken him in the midst of
his sin; taken him in such a state that

On Tuesday there were three mel IN

NATIVE FRUTT.-We yesterday visit
ed the fine fruit orchard belonging to
W. y. Torrevson. The trees are with
ont doubt the finest in the State.
Having been planted at considerable
distance apart, the whole of them are
as straight ss poplars and well grown
in the trunk. Nhere are perhaps 100
good fruit tresS, apple, pear. cherry,
plum and apricot. There is one plum
tree in the garden perfectly covered
with fruit, and should no late froSts
occur. Mr.. Torrevson will have a large
crop of all kinds of fruit. The currant
and go~oSeherry bushes are literally
covered with blossoms Mr.. I. has
expended much money and time, and
we predict a rich retnrn for 1t the
present Summer.
