ANOTHER AMERICAN MECCA.
Washington's Headquarters In New
Jersey.

Jersey.
Some time ago some spectators in Jersey OBJ
tanned control OF the property at MOrristown on
which stands the building used by George WASH
ington during the Jersey Revolutionary campaign
and sought to make "a soft thngr out OF it. They
talked and wrote it up in that pure spirit OF pa
triotism which DR.. Johnson described so truly
and 1t was handed over Tor disposition under the
hammer Of the auctioneer. While that worthy
was rattlng or his glib story, and ere he
had reached the final "Gonep p up stepped ex.
Governor Theodore F. Randolph and purchased
the old building and adjoining grounds In behalf Of
himself. ex-Congressman George N. Halsey, Gen.

intention to reserve it for the State. The New
Jersey Historical Society, with spirit worthy Of
It's distinguished membership past and present,
have promptly taken up the NATTER and ut re-
cent meeting, at which were present the iour gen.
historic place and hold it forever as repository
for relics Of the lllustrious Father of the Country
and his associates. The Executive and finance
committees were also authorized to issue 500 SnareS
OF stock, at 500 each in the name Of "The wash
ington Association OF the New Jersey Historical
Society," and that the proceeds OF subscription as
rapidly as received shall be applied as fOll0ws:-
First, to payment upon the property, and second,
to providing fund for its maintenance and per-
petuation." subscription list was opened on tho
spot and Eve gentlemen put themselves down for
ten shares each. The price paid iOr the property
was $4,000. There Is no doubt but there Is ample
unselfshness and true love OF the glorious past
among Jerseymen to raise the necessary funds TO
and glory to New Jersey as Aount Vernon is to the
whole country.

The ANNUAL FLOOD OF UNRIPE FRUIT -
Our markets and fruit stands are beginning
to afford indications that the annual food of
green apples and peaches and other unripe
fruits is upon us. These fruits are the cause
of large proportion of our Summer diseases,
especially among the young, who devour them
whenever opportunity occurs, and the conse-
quence is our weekly death record is swelled
enormously. Can not something be done to
prevent the traffic in these unhealthy fruits
The sale of poisons is regulated to some ex-
tent by law then why should not the sale of
these poisonous fruits be subjected to some
wholesome supervisionp Meanwhile parents
and guardians cannot be too careful Of their
charges of tender years, for in connection
With the seeds of disease impregnating the
atmosphere in nearly every part OF the city,
and with city officials who are criminally
negligent in looking after the sanitary condi-
ton of the metropolis, especially in the fat
boiling and offal rendering sections, the grim
spectre has formidable ally in the unripe
fruits of the season, and every precaution
1bould be taken to pxeyept theW general we

Of the ignorant mountaineers and their clergy,
humbled by the Republic, the hidalgo hopes
of the dons who lead the peasants, all to the
contrary, the Republic is strong enough for
its assailants yet. Efforts, it is said, are being
made by the clergy TO fuse the two most prom
inent royalist sections, but they are at least as
difficult to unite as the moderate republi-
cans and the fiery reds. Looking at
the situation gravely, the fact that Spain has

may be turned against his own before he has
much chance to inflict mortal wound With
the blinded peasantry kissing his matricidal

1t Is remarkable though somewhat dis
couraging fact that every advance of civiliza-
ton into the Great West carries with it the
elements of barbarism, and enterprise is ac-
companied by disrespect for law. Every new
city Of the West of mushroom growth
has had TO suffer in its infancy from hordes
OF border ruffians, whose trade was war against
organized society. Many Of the towns on the
lines of the newly laid railroads are governed
by no other law than that of the strongest
and even in places of greater pretensions and
OF earlier birth the 'nsvy" revolver
is the safest reliance in discus
sion. This il great evil, and one
that works mischief to the communities
in which it is allowed. 1t deters peaceably

people Of Omaha city that by this time
ought to have an efficient police-have deter

assassins, from whom they have SO severely
suffered. Gamblers on Western trains are no
novelty, unfortunately. Holding the officials
in fear of their lives or bribing them into con-
nivance, they fleece hundreds of travellers of
money hardly earned. For denouncing q

Union Pacific road the gamblers stabbed q

the railroad men and citizens of Omaha have

is severe, but the evil is one that cannot well
be treated hom@opathically. Either the in

city prey to violence or the lawless ruffians

GEORG ETOWN.

The CANAL.-It is expected that to-day
empty boats will be able to pass over the Chesa-
peake and Ohio canal, but Il will be a week vet
before boats with full cargOes can resume travel
The shipments of coal from Cumberland for the
week ending August 9th amounted to 81 ,O9S tons
6cwt, an increase ever the corresponding week
OF last year of ,SgI tons 10 cwt. For the year to
that date one million four hundred and eighty
thousand three hundred and sixty-eight tons 5
cwt. were shipped, showing an increase over the
same period in 1872 of 149, 54l tons II cwt. In
crease in railroad shipments, 1871 $50 tons u
cwt.; decrease in canal shipments, As 2Tg tons
boats cleared Cumberland, carrying 1869 tons
lScwt of coal. The several brakes and "washes"
In the canal during the past week caused an
almost entire suspension of business for three
days, only four boats clearing in that time. The
water has been drawn from the Georg stown
level for the purpose of making some necessary
repairs while navigation is suspended by the
breaks above.
Mr.. j. y. CLEMENTS, of this city, a printer
by trade, has received an appointment in the
storm signal cCrps, and has left for his ne "
station at Memphis, Tenn.
COAL TRADE-The coal trade has been en-
urely suspended for the week on account of
breaks In the canal Not a single boat has ar
rived during the week. Schooners are plentiful
and II the repairs TO the canal be promptly
hnished, the prospects for the fall trade will be
bright.
RIVER NEws.-The schooner Fannie w
johnson has arrived from Boston with fertilizers
Tor +. l.. Moore and the steamer Georgeanna
rom Baltimore, has arrived with a miscella-
neous cargo. The steamer New York, due here
from Philadelphia, Is detained by breaks in the
delaware and Cbesap eake canal.
