The PEACH TRADE.-The Milford -N,rS
ard Iir,rt.1er suggests that the peach
growers make Wilmington grand dis
tributing point for the fruit of the PENN
sula. and all of the growers agree that
they Will not ship single car load Of fruit
beyond that city. and give due notice of this
fact to all the dealers throughout the
country. and thus compel those who make
the money out Of the trade in fruit 10
assume the responsibility and expense of all
further transportation as well as the final
disposition Of il in the markets of the great
cities. BY this method the grower will
avoid the larger portion Of the expense Of
Transportation and retain the control Of his
fruit until it is sold at private sale or to the
highest bidders at auction
If We remember rightly. one Of the very
first matters that the Peninsula Fruit
Cirowcrs Association took into considcra-
tion after ii was organized was a suggestion
something Ike this; to establish a home
market and enable the f;tlmeI, to sell their
fruit at the dapots from whence it was
shipped in the same manner as grain,
potatoes, &c. But the plan was never
brought into effect. 1t could never be con
summated. Some Of the members Of the
organization pointed out the difficulties
III the first place, the plan now pursued
had been thoroughly established and it wa,
found to be more difficult to break it uI
than to devise a new system to take it,
place In the next place it was found thai
the law Of supply and demand would no
meet the ca-c. as in grain. Peaches are :
luxury, and like all luxuries they mus
seek the market rather than the lnalke
should seek them. If the giowers becom,
captious and say they will permit them t
rot on their hands if they cannot establi.I
home market for them, the consumer
can. with an equal amount Of captiousnes

man who reads and thinks do Congressman
read and think y that we are doing wrong
aud point out the remedy. Ut appears 10 me
that this state Of things would show 10 philo-
sophical mind, that there are too many OF our
people engaged in farming and too lew OF us
in manufacturing, and that some OF those
farmers should be converted into manufacture
ers. 1t ought TO point out the way thai this
could be done, too, by simply making IL their
interest TO change, by causing il to be more
profitable to be engaged in manufacturing
Than il has been, either by higher tar.f, or
by turning some of those lands into currency
aud raising prices at bone that would he OF
no benefit to the foreign manufacturer. II
would raise the premium on gold, TO be sure,
but il would force us TO do our own work MS
this money would not be used abroad. 1t
would reduce the rate Of interest to the bank
ers and brokers' but it would employ more OF
our labor to make what we have been buying,
IT would help to consume the products OF our
land at home and keep us from impoverishing
our soil, and thus be better for us and our
children, grand and great.
Mr. Editor, you will see that even the Con-
gressmen want high prices for labor and SER
vices, aud this must be right as everybody
wants high pay. 1t is according to the nature
Of man; il is natural law and Congress aud
the people should work with it, and they will
surely do harm TO work against it. The farm
er works against this law when he buys his
manufactures al a low price from foreign coun-
tries and expects or tries TO sell his grain, &c,
at home for "a high price. He cannot do it
to get high price for his produce, he must be
willing to pay fair price to the manulactur-
ers at home, for ther are his customers, and it
is better to have them near him. The farmers
make great mistake in thinking that because
| they do not want protection 10 their grain,
that others do not want il, and shall not have

The finance and the tariff are the two most

labor of our country, and should not be deter

are very nearly related, and can either, or

all want-building upwards and not down

DIED, in Washington city, D. O., Jan. Ain,
1875, Mrs. MARIEL II. WILLIAMS, in the
7eth year of her aye. This estimable Chris
tian woman was the mother OF large family
of children, about one-half of whom, win her
husband had gone to heaven, while the others
remain to mourn their rreparable loss ohe
was a consistent member of the Protestant
Episcopal church for more than nifty years.
AS a mother know of no one who displayed,
with more affection, better qualifications OF
head and heart in the discharge of moiherly
duties. As friend she was universally
loved; ALWAYS ready with seli-sacrhcng
spirit and deep, tender sympathy 10 prac'Ice
any amount OF self-denia for the comfort and
happiness of others. As Christian, she ex-
hibited the graces Of a pure, gentle, consistent
and devoted life. With perfect composite,
nnwasering faith, and ut times ecsiatic Joy,
she spoke of her approaching dissolution,
longing 10 enter into that rest which remain
eth for the people of God.
When recall her genlleness and refinement
of manuer-her lberalily and benevolence-
her simple but strong faith-her intorn good
ness of heart and her sweet, gentle, pure me-
! am constrained to praise the Lord for his
gift to the world of this mother in Israel, pos
sessed Of so mnny natural, womanly endow-
menfs The world will seem less attractive 10
her children and friends now that one of such
rare worth has been taken from it. The
world to come will have new charm now
that such spirit has been added 10 the com
panv Of the redeemed She is not dead, but
