We are indebted to Sheriff Smith for
cluster of ripe cherries, the first Of
domestic growth that we have seen. If
this is any indication of the cherry crop
this year, there will be an abundant
supply, as we have never seen more
cherries growing in as compact a form
and as thoroughly ripe.

The slang reply Of the reverend
editor of the RepuGticna to our article
in regard to the adoption of the Holly
system of water works by our Town
Council evades the question, nor is there
any denta5 Of the "SoH Impeachment" ;"
Mr.. Phillips, member of the Danville
Council, who favored the system, told
us that 800, had been offered a certain
editor of that place to favor the plan,
and the matter became so notorious
that the company had to disavow the
act of their agent. We do not know that
the Republican has received its 800, but
it is earning it by weekly advocacy of
this particular plan. The fact that we
ever have been approached, is due,
probably, to the very fact stated by
the Republican, that "having been in
the Legislature" we came home with
clean hands.
