LAUNCH OF NEW FERRY STEAMER, Ry THE II. IL
II. CO., THIS MORNING.
The Harlan 4 Hollingsworth Co., at G 25,
this morning, lauched from their ship yards,
an iron ferry steamer for the Camden Il Phila.
Ferry Co. A number of early risers viewed the
hull it smoothly glided down tho ways and
gracefully foated out upon the bosom of the
river.
This steamer is being builded to supply the
place of the Deldrart, "A wooden steamer of the
same liue, which Is being dismantled at the II. Il
IL. yards to obtain the machinery for the new
boat. The name has not yet been announced.
The dimensions of the new steamer, which is side
wheel, arc Ms follows Length on deck, J so feet;
width, 90 feet; depth of hold, 10 feet a inches
The hull wht els and wheel-houses are of iron,
and built in the most substantial manner Of the
best mate rial.
This is the second steamer which the Harlan
and Hollingsworth Co have built for the Cam
den and Philadelphia Ferry Co., tho Pe'nsyt-
rama being tho first. We have no doubt that
it was the entire satisfaction which the first
steamer gave that has brought the second con-
tract, for the work of the II. Il II. Co. ls of such
character that it not only receives the approval
OF those for whom it is done, but makes friends
who become the stcady patrons of the firm

THEY REFUSE TO LEAVE A FARM AND ATTEMPT TO
SHOOT THE OWNER
On Wednesday of this week, says the Elkton
Democrat, . case of shooting took place on the
the lands of John W. News, near Providence pa
per mill, in Cecil county. The following
are the facts in evidence before the
magistrate Charles ii. and Edward
Duckett were cunning on News farm. MIR.
News and his sons were at work in their corn
field and hearing the shooting Of guns near
them, went to the gunners and ordered them
off their premises. This order the Dncketts
refused to obey, and began to abuse the Mews-
Oh. Edward Duckett raised his gun and threat
ened to blow a hole Though Clifford News.
Charles ii. Duckett then fired at the elder
News, and the shot might have proved
fatal but for the prompt action of the younger
News, who seized the gun and diverted its
aim Duckett then assaulted young News for
his interference. In the afternoon the Mewses
went to Elkton and made oath to the above
facts. whereupon Justice Brown issued his war
rant for the arrest of the buckets. The other
side of the case is yet to be heard.

ExpEcrF d ARRIVAL OF THE VENEZUELAN MINISTER
AT BRuBs ELS.
LONDON, Oct. 0.
A dispatch has been received in this city from
the Hagne, which announces that the Venezue-
Ian Minister Plenipotentiary with his secretary,
left there on Saturday for Brussels. The
announcement derives its Importance from the
known relations between the two countries, and
suggests the inquiry whether the movement in
dicates rupture of diplomatic relations. Di-
plomatic circles aay probably not, as in such
cases usually there is no attempt at secrecy.

Novices in fruit culture. as well as a
large class who believe in allowing tree
to injure itself by overbearing, never thin
out the young fruit or thin overwhelmed
trees; but the shrewd orchardist, whs
knows the road to success by experience,
at this season carefully removes portion
of the smaller specimens, as well as some
of large size, when thickly clustered to-
gether, and by this means actually in
creases the weight of his crop and makes
it more valuable. The grower of foreign
grapes, more than any other gardener, is
aware of the advantages to be derived from
thinning out the branches; he knows well
that they will outweigh those not tbinned,
and the berries will swell up to double
the size of their neglected companions.
And so it is with peaches and pears, with
perhaps less need as a general rule. 1t
does seem akin to sacrilege when we begin
TO destroy SO many healthy young peaches,
for instance; but we must bear in mind
that if allowed to remain on the tree until
maturity they will not be so healthy and
the tree, unable to bear its burden, may be-
come useless in the future. 1t cannot be
impressed upon readers too strongly to
commence now, and see that none of their
fruit trees are in condition to injure both
their crop of fruit and themselves by too
heavy task Relieve them OF a portion,
for it appeals strongly to your pockets

Who Is the Successful Farmer!

The most impregident farmer may oc-
casionally get good crop when every.
thing is so favorable to its growth as to
need but little artificial assistance, but
when extreme wet weather, or drought or
damage by insects occur the man of skill
and enterprise will find himself douhly re
warded. for the reason that so many fail
in the things wherein he succeeds. Farm
ing is a trade as much as any other bust
ness, and one requiring push, guided by
scientific application and thought, as much
as any other
The successful farmer must, and does,
so conduct his operations in way that
his crops are affected in the least possible
manner by the contingencies of climatic
influences, insect depredators, etc. His
. land may be so drained that the desolating
floods 10 the many may percolate through
the soil. leaving hidden treasures of tertil-

breaking the corn roots, destroying the
conditions which the plant had accepted
as normal during the long interval OF
rest, etc.
The necessary machinery TO be supplied
should be bought early, great care being
exercised in the selection. A light, COM
bined reaper. one easily changed and adj
justed, is better adapted to small farm
than perhaps any other, being more eco
nomical and operated with less labor and
expense than one cutting awide swath and
not capable of doing all kinds of cutting,
