CHEERING.
Fruits and Crops.

MESSRs. EDToRS-To the oldest
inhabitant of this locality no year
ever opened with better promise
than that of 1875. Near Marietta
fruit trees of all kinds-applss,
pears, plums, peaches,-are ladened
with a wealth of fruit, while we have
now in enjoyment or early prospect
the smaller fruits of every variety in
abundance. Some of our enterpris-
ing merchants should provide some
other mode than canning, drying or
distilling, of utilizing the peach crop
of this year 1t can be made, as
the crop is cut off north of us, q
source of great profit.
The weather, recently, has been
highly favorable to the farmer and
the spring crops are generally for
ward, growing finely and in excel
lent condition. The stand of cotton,
of which the area is somewhat less
than last year, is excellent and
"chopping out" is generally going
on. The corn is increased and the
plant is growing finely. | have
heard little complaint of wheat crop.
From an extended area a good yield
is anticipated. Take it call in all'
rural life never appeared more love-
ly or more full of promise than in
Cobb county in this lovely month of

Village Gossip.

Tie Darien Gazette truthfully says
in every community there are to be
found a class of iyiduals, with too
little soul to be saved, and too con-
temptabIe to be damned, whose chief
business it is morning, noon and
night, to travel from place to place,
for the purpose of trafficing in human
character, and to circulate false re-
ports about their neighbors. Mari
eta has a portion Of these vile gos-
sipers, foul vultures that they are,
who live and fatten by preying upon
the character Of true and noble men
and women. In our opinion the most
miserable, abominable, and intolera
bic of all contemplate characters is
the village gossiper, which is but
another and softer name for the
slanderey. Our people should scorn
and kick them from their society, as
they would trample and crush the
deadly poisonous rattlesnake.
