THE CHANGE IN THE WEATHER.

There has been a most decided change in
the weather since yesterday. In the morn
ing the atmosphere was extremely warm,
but the heavy rain in the afternoon brought
with it change, ii not polar, Enthusiastically
characteristic of that region. At noon the
thermometer exhibited so degrees in the
shade, but at midnight there had been fall
of nearly thirty degrees, the mercury stand
ing at 80 degrees. Occurring at this time
of the year, changes in the weather are not
remarkable, but fall of 80 degrees is al
most unprecedented.

PEACHES.
SHIPMENTS YEsTERDAY-THB MARKETS
Total,
THE NEW YORK MARKET.

AAn -'A" AoisA <AAhhLl.
The receipts of peaches, on Thursday, in
New York, were 127 carloads by the Phila-
delphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Rail
road, 62S baskets AMI 1856 crates BY the
Old Dominion Steamship Company: total,
l34 carloads. The market was without
much life Thursday. Fresh supplies were
moderate. but the peaches left over from the
pickbefJre made asomewhat bulky offering,
especially as much poor stock is arriving.
Some large receivers complain of the waste
consequent upon the practice in some Della
ware sections Of injudicious premature
picking. Stock should now be permitted
to ripen or not be sent here. 1t is thought
that the very heavy supplies are over for
I his season, excepting of course the coming
crop of Smocks and White Heaths. Ycster-
day the supply was light as shippers aim to
have brisk trade for Saturday for the good
styles of table fruit remaining. The general
run of quotations yesterday for ordinary
were 30 to 50 cents ; good to large size yei-
low, 60 cents to 81. Crates not wan.e
were quoted at 55 cents to 81 .25, with few
at S1.50.
THE BALTIMORE MARKET.
There we're from 900 to Is. 600 boxes of
peaches at Light street Yesterday, some of
which brought fancy prices. Shippers and
packers bought the bulk Of the receipts,
paying fom 60 cents to sl.25 per box. A
LOT Of $50 boxes very large Crawfords hand
some enough to take prize at an agricul-
! tural fair, sold at si.75 per box. Smocks
sold at 81 per box, and small White Hcaths
brought lower figure. The receipts are
'pected 20 e heavier to-day.
/ For the week ending September there
were eiyhty-tive car loads of Delaware
peaches sent Yves. over the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, and abou. the same number
by Baltimore shippers. For the season up
ito the same date 5,SF carloads of peaches,
o 2,92',00O brskets were shipped from
Delaware to all points, the largest quantity
going to Nav York. The Delaware growers
have concluded that the fruit sells better in
baskets than boxes, and 1t is stated that
, shipments in the latter are fast waning.
THE WILMINGTON M.RKETs.
There was full market yesterday and
good fruit foun1 ready sales, the demand
for fine qualities Of peaches greatly exceed
ing the supply. Prices ranged from :0c. to
90. per basket ahl from 3Oc. TO $1.15 per

the report Ia therefore unwarranted by tho
evidence, a,ltl intended to deceive tho public.
Tho Committee wore unusually alcrt III thoir
efforts to rim down every obscure newspaper
reporter whose nnr,o was mentioned in con-
ncction with the job, btt they failed lnmcntably
to follow nny scont TINT might possibly lead to
tho conviction Of Congressman. 10th Re-
publicans md Democrats agreed on this.
Their treatment Of BcuuMAKEn and K1va is
wenk to tho Inst degree. Tho most they
thought tioy could do waa 10 certify these
cnscs to tho next Congress. Az Alr. K1xo
kept out Of tho way, perhaps there WAS notl-
ing clso to 10 dono In his case, though Lis
persistent Btay in Canada wns n confession,
not only TINT ho received the money said 10
hnvo boon pail to him, but TINT llo mndo sonlo
,,so of it which ho did not want to reveal.
But In ScnuMAKEn's cnso tho Committee
might have shown their purpose Of ascer-
tanning tho facts II thoy la1 entertained
such a purpose. They Ind evidence enough
wecks ago to warrant a recommendation Of
scnuMAKEn's expulsion, which the House
would havo adopted. Thcroupon Mr.. Scnu-
MAKEn could have been arrested and forced to
tell whit lo did with tho $500, 700 which ho
received.
Tho investigation Inns been failure in tho
manner in which 1t was conducted, aud in nil
ita results, except TINT 1t led to n repeal Of
tho subsidy which WINS fraululently procured.
This repeal is proof that Congress does not
believe with tho Committee that most OF tho

Mr.. BARNEY CAc1F1ELp's explanation Of his

tercst, for which ho was sent to Washing
ton, and for which lie is paisl. But even if
ho cnn reconcile lis nbscnco from Congress

THE MINNESOTA RAILROAD LAW.

Tho radical charge in public sentiment
toward railroads which Inns occurred during tho
past year is notably illustrated in tho project
for modifying the POTTER law in Wisconsin
aud the passage Of nh intelligent, just, md
practicable law BY tho Legislature of AIinne-
sofa. A year or more ago tho Changers Of
our Western Statos demanded the most
sweeping and impracticable laws for tho reg
ulasion Of railroad corporations and their
charges; hut the experience which they haye
already hal with tho workings Of such lnws
has demonstrated their error in exncting too
much. They have found TINT in rendering
tho operation Of railroads altogether nnproht-
able, they hayo damaged their own interests
as much ns when tho railroad corporations
wcro allowed full swing in their policy Of cx-
tortion md discrimination.
Tho Minnesota bill which has passed tho
House by q large majority, and will probably
receive a still larger majority in tho Senate, is
a Good model for railroad legislation. It pro-
yides for ono Commissioner, whose duties arc
to inaqiro into any violation of tho laws on
tho part of tho railroads, to inspcct the con-
tlition Of tho roads, to examine into and re-
mort upon their management, Ho is reouirod

road transportation system Of tho State, cn,-

Tie House Of Representatives Mt midnight
on Saturday pissed the Force bill by q .yoto
Of 135 to III, f,-nbout 10 absent. Assuming
that tho Dcmocrasic,voto was so, It follows that
over Is 1lepublicans voted against Tho bill and
SO others refused to vote. Tho Republicans
in tho House not voting for tho bill, thero-
fore, numbered 10. Tho bill passed by a
vote Of less thnu minority Of tho whole
House. Before being passed. 1t was amended,
so that tho power to suspend the hadfds cor
7,us was limited to two years, and tho terri
tory within which It may DO suspended was
confined to tho States Of Louisiana, Alotnmn,
Mississippi, and Arkansas. Practically it
authorizes tho President, If SO disposed, to
control tho elections in these four States, or
to hayo their votes rejected in tho Presilen-
tial election OF 1876.
Tho bill is ill-adviaed and Is unnecessary.
It embodies tho malignity Of Ben BUTLER
and of tho rnscalsy tribe Of alvontnrera in
tho Southern States who hare done SO much
to destroy the Republican party at tho South
and weaken it ut the North. It il Bu7tEn's
parting legacy to tho Republican party md
10 tho country,-a legacy which, should tho
| bill become d law, nnay provo fruitful Of dis
aster, strife, and nationnl excitement. Dis
cardel mud repudiatca aud elected from Con-
grcss by his Republican constituents, this
,Ean BUTLER has devised this bill to punish
the party that becomes responsible for it..
The President might, with great credit 10
himself, veto tho bill and reject tile dictato-
rial power placed nt his disposal possibly
that ho may use it to his own injury.
Tho bill will roach tho Senate this morn.
ing. when it will find itself in competition
with other measures The Tax bill is before
it, md TINT bill cannot probably be forced
through without long debate md much op-
position. If tho Opposition party in the
Senate and those Republicans who oppose
this Force bill aro so disposed they can "tnlls
this evil measure to death "a result in
whicl, the county will rejoice, and for which
the Republican party ought to feel grateful.
