fRrrr PRosPEcrs.-J. q. Belcher, tho
old chief fruit dealer. has como over the
Sierra on his fifteenth regular annual
raid to this section. and is supplying
tho people with choice fruit. ~ usual,
shipped to him daily. direct from the or.
charls Of California. lie gives us some
items relative TO the comparative failure
Of the fruit crop In the Golden State
Tho frosts were unusually severe and
late this season. playing sad havoc with
the young fruit, so that the peach and
apple crop i'm the foothills and valleys
adjacent on the western slope OF the 81
ezra, including Placerville, and all along
the Costumes river. In q total failure.
About Marysville this fruit fared better.
and the principal supply Of aprieots and
peaches is from there. Apples and
pears stood the frosts q little better. but
the general fruit crop will be short, and
that desirable article IL likely TO be
rather scarce md dear. Belcher will,
however, continue as heretofore, to snp-
Ply his numerous patrons with the
choicest fruit to be found, in any de-
.ired quantity, delivering tho same by
the Dor, at residences or wherever do
sired. Ho will also give his views on
tho political situation in California and
Nevada, free Of charge.
