had to come. (Cheers.) He has nerer been

The reports of the coming crops, us gath
cred from the local authorities, are not so
oiscOuraging as those obtained by the Agri-
cultural Department at Washington. Wheat
is failure in the Atlantic States, but above
the average in the South and West. Corn, oats
barley and rye promise we'll, and any ankle
ty that may have been felt in regard to these
cereals should be given up at once. The
fate of the peach crop has been an object OF
concern to truit-growers all over the land
and the fruit, like the wheat on the Atlantic
coast, has suffered greatly from the winter
In Delaware the intense cold not only killed
the buds, but also the ends of the lower limbs
of the trees; but the balmy breath Of spring
has, however, started into life the untouched
portions of the peach trees, and in some sec
tons the growers are confident of realizing al
| least two thirds OF crop. In some parts OF
the Southern and Western States, horticul.
turalists expect the best crop of peaches ever
produced there. In regard to cotton, in
Georgia and other cotton growing States, the
indications all point to large crop, notwith-
standing reports to the contrary Globe.
