FRUIT PRosPEcT-The question of
the fruit prospect is an important one
there are no party lines drawn upon that
subject; all are interested in it. 1t is
therefore with pleasure that we note that
from all sections of the State reports come
of a favorable outlook for all kinds of
fruit. Should the season still continue
propitious, we may expect an abundant
gathering To rich or poor this would
be choice blessing. r

TO MY NAPLES.

Your time is come, my tall and straiRht-lambed
naples.
Whose boles the wrathful winds have blench.
We've done. at last. with frosfs and SHOWS as
staples,
Or hailed them for while to hanishment.
This is your hour: ye shall no more be fiouted
With leafess honors by the vomiting spruce
Whose verdant arms old winters legions routed,
While all your blazoned banners drifted loose.
Already have its glowing shields grown dusky,
While emerald tints are deepening in the
And odors, resinous no more, but musky,
Steal from the beds where the young violets
wake.
mark your slender twigs against the azure
Grow bossy with the rounding Of the gems,
And soon soft leaves will veil each fine embra-
And crown your ample browns with dadems.
For every blast that through the spruce went
Agentle breeze your breasts shall stir;
Your grateful shade shall WOO the lovers moo
When he will read sweet parsb les to her
So sweet the midday silence shall be golden
OF thrush and oriole, in the morn that sing;
Less dear their notes than those, both new and
olden,
Which loves young ecstasies to young hearts
bring.
And so, my naples, tall and verdure-crested,
1 Ye shall fling back the houtings of the spruce,
Till the bright minstres in your bosoms nestled
With happy even-songs to strife give truce.
Hove you all, o trees, that round my garden
Stand sentries 'twixt me and the common air;
Nor less the spruce than maple connt warden
To shut without the Ill, within the fair.
Grand winter trees that draw your fringy cur
tans.
To shield my cottage idols from the snow.
sing in strains nor grudginR nor Uncertain
Your sombre vigilance while ten pest blow.
And If praise you, naples, in my rhyming,
And brush the spruce's light reproach away
I bid you heed how gifts depend on trimming,
And trees, like all our treasures, have their
day.

The GREAT WRIT OF HABEAs CORPUS SETS
4 CONVICT FREE.-Chief Judge Bartel,. OF
the Court OF Appeals, rendered his opinion
in the Mcdonald habeas corpus case in the
Superior Court room, Baltimore, on Satur-
day, the decision being in favor Of the pri-
soner. ordering his discharge. Mcdonald,
q policeman, was found guilty OF man
slaughter in January last for the killing OF
David Brown (colored), and was sentenced
to tive years in Jail on recommendation Of
mercy from the jury. The Court Of Appeals
decided the sentence as illegal and void, two
years in Jail and ten in the penitentiary
being the limit Of the law. After this deci-
sion Mcdonald was held on warrant issued
by Judge Brown on the oath of Keziah
Brown, charging him with the murder OF
David Brown. McDonald's counsel then
applied for the release OF the prisoner on a
writ OF habeds corpus on the grounds that
he could not be tried for the same offence
again, and the Supreme Court decided in
McDonald's favor.
