A New MOVE OF THE ORANGES
The farmers, in their movement against
high freights, are entering more into detail
and taking practical and economical mea-
sures in matters pertaining to the farming
interest. The indianapolis Journal learns
Of oranges in that state which have leagued
together and made arrangements to- obtain
plows at $40, which heretofore cost them
S33. Of course, wholesale quantities can
be bought at wholesale prices, and the far
mers can thus serve themselves very hand
somely. In Virginia the price of McCor-
mick's reaper and mower, which has here
tofore been 5000, has been put down to
$3.50, and his other machines in like pro-
portion. This reduction has doubtless been
brought about by the same influences.

OBsTRUCTING THE STREETS. - We
have alluded to the obstruction OF streets
by vehicles Of various kinds before, but il
must be patent to the minds of all who
have to traverse them to any extent that
it is fast becoming nuisance. Scarcely a
day passes that we do not see vehicles
stopped on the street crossings or the
horses standing there, and pedestrians in
passing from side to side have to get out
in the mud in order to accomplish that ;
and further, parties are in the habit of tie
ing their horses in the street and they FREE
quently mount the rostrum--pavemen we
mean-and parties passing have to run the
gauntlet, thereby endangering life and
limb in the attempt. s.
What we have thus far said is so we'll
known to all especially to the authorities of
our city, that people are beginning to get
accustomed to it. We don't intend to get
used to anything Of the kind. and as long
as it is permitted, just so long do we
intend to protest against it. We would
call the attention of the city authorities
(or fear none of them have observed it) to
the condition of Twelfth street. where the st.
James hotel is being built, and ask if it is
not simply shameful that astrcet should be
obstructed in such manner. Mr.. Police

purports to be q history Of the rise
and progress Of the Oranges Of the Patrons
Of Husbandry. The Star says that the
order had its rise in that city, and that to
o. II. Kelly, William Saunders, John R.
Thompson, and a few others, its successful
start is due. The task of getting the or
ganizaiion into successful working opera
ton was a tedious and discouraglng one,
butt was accomplished by energy and per-
severance, and from the small beginning Of
six years ago the order has grown up to
a membership of about 1876, 900, and it is
estimated that at the present rate of in
crease since January 1st it will number
100000 before the end of the year.

A RARE CURIOsITY.--A remarkable

osities of the age. He is half white and
half black, not in the mulatto and misce-

body is whittier than white folks usually
are, while the upper portion is as black as
midnight. His mother, "a coal-black ne
gress, was with him, and they left on the
Nashville train at seven o'clock last evening.
He is but three years old, and has already
made money out of his pecularities. He
made several lnickles yesterday in very

about three inches in diameter, Of
perfectly beautiful hair on the top Of his
head, which is surrounded by little kinky

BALTIMORE, July 10.-A special from
Winchester to The Sun saws: Tvcurens
and Oscar Little, the alleged fratricides, are
confined in the jail of Clarke county.
Their trial is set for Monday, when it will
probably be postponed until the fall. Re-
port here says the statement of the killing
published in the Washington Star, and pur-
porting to have come from Columbus Little,
a spectator, is wholly at variance with
the account of the affair as given by that
person the day of the homicide. The state
ment that the shooting was accidental is
refuted by the finding Of the grand Jury.
and by the fact that the murdered man
was beat about the head after the pistol
wound was inflicted. +, r,,,5l Y ~.
The verdict of the coroner's Jury was
that Clinton Little came to his death by a
pistol shot fred with premeditation by his
brother, Lycurgus Little. sI 9'
The wounded are recovering as rapidly
as could be expected. Mrs. Little's wound
is the most serious, the injuries of the 9TH
ers. with the exception of Oscar, being
chiefly bruises about the head, received
from the clubbed pistols in the hands
of the combatants.
1t was reported on Monday that Lycur-
gus had committed suicide in the Jail at
Berryville. This was incorrect, however,
and probably arose from the fact that he
made such an attempt on Saturday. He
had obtained bottle of morphine by
some means, and DR.. Love, who was one
OF the first physicians called in, had Sc
