On our impatience burdens that would weigh

And counted out our years.
Can we not be content,

OF these complaining lives, and wait with trust,
Fulfilling Heavens intent?
Must we have wealth and power,
Appealing to Indifferent hearts and cold

OF patient sacrifice and self-submission,

THE PEACH CRoP.- The Peach growers of New
CAstis county have abandoned oll their hopes of
gathering paying crop OF peaches this year. The
lata varieties may he more productive but the
early peaches aud those most relied upon for ship
ment were killed by the hard winter. One ex-
tensive grower told us he would not have three
baskets ON On orchard Of six thousand trees an-
other, and the most extensive planter iu the Co.,
said he would take $50 for aR that could be got
rem straightforward trees. They both referred
to orchards in this county, where they live. They
each have large orchards in Maryland and say
the prospect is good for fine yield there. In
Kent and Sussex counties, Dttware, the pros
pect Is also very fer for good crop. But there
Is no hope for a yield equalug the crops of last
year. The gentlemen from whom we gather our
information have had long ANA successful ex-

City Park.

1t will be seen from the proceedings of the City
Council last evening, that resolution was passed
giving the Park Committee the power 10 make
the necessary arrangements for purchasing
seventy-two acres for public park. Much Oi
the land lies within the city limits and lays con.
spicuously on the map.
The principal objection is that it will cost so
much fatigue expense TO get to the greater part
of the park that generation will probably pass
away before it will become public resort to any
very great extent. Itis cxpending alarge amount
OF money on part OF the town toward
which the population docs not seem to be drifting
SO rapidly as 10 warrant the outlay proposed
The purchase of such park carries with it heavy
annual Outlays, and although the land may be
worth more than the city pays for it alter a very
few years. still the cost will be no less because the
city will not sell II might curlal the parks
dimensions In a few years, and dispose of enough
ground in building lots to improve the balance
or pay the debt no doubt. But whether they
would do so is questionable
