4 SpeeiSl despaieh 10 the New York
World says The disbursement OF the
Secret Service Fund for esectiOn purposes

Republican pre-s claim, il : strange mat
two Attorney Generals, the highest law
ofieers Of the Government, should IN dill
ferent instances and al periods Of one and
two years apart require the positive order
Of the President before they sent dollar
OF it through the chief OF the Treasury
detectives 10 an inscriptions partisan Of
kciAl for political eAmpaign work, aud Il
the money vas used properly under the
Enforcement act, as = also claimed BY the
Republicans. why has 1t sot been aeeouh-
ted for in detail, IS required by the last
section o. that law? ExAttorney-eien-
eral Akerman testified to-day that he hrst
disbursed part Of the fund through De
tective Whitley to Davenport on letter
which be received from General Horace
Porter from Long Branch, written by his
private secretary at the request OF the
President Mr. Akerman regarded this
information as important and confidential
and submitted it TO the committee uLSier
protest He did not think that be ought
to BE- required to make it public, as it was
an Official act, performed at the private
request Of the President. The committee
hope to get full information regarding the
amount Of money sent into North Carolina
10 August, 1872, when the first State cleo
ton Of the Grant and Greeley campaign
came OF, the importance Of which will be
easily recalled The fact IS already known
that Sl35 900 Of Government funds we're
sent into that State to aid the Republican
ticket against MerrimaD, the Democratic
candidate for Governor and now United
States Senator There is no pre.euse Of
fraudulent registration or Tweed rings to
defend this theft Of public money. II is
suggested that the Caulfeld Committee
visit New York before concluding the iu-
vestigatiOu into the expenditures of public
money there for election purposes. Ii
costs in the neighborhOOd Of $50 To bring
a witness from New York to Washington
and return aud pay his expenses while
waiting the pleasure Of the committee.
There are hundreds Of witnesses IN New
York who will swear as to the way in
which Johnny Davenport spent the money
Illegally given him by order of the Presi-
dent. The expense Of bringing these Wit
nesses to Washington would be much
greater than the expense Of the committee
in visiting New York

The Fuit Prospect.

\ special train Of cars passed down the
Peninsula between the Chesapeake aud
Delaware bays last week, bearing the
representatives at the Centennial from
Austria, Prussia, Germany, Canada, news
paper correspondents, and many other
prominent persOnagcs, on a visit Of inspee-
ton TO the fruit region. Among the
number vas Thomas NJ. Coleman, Esq.
city editor Of the Philadelphia Ledger.
Who sends to that paper the following
statement of the present prospect Of the
siraEberry and peach crop
Below MiddlesOEn, there Is strip of
land about three miles wide and seven
miles long, upon which the trees have
scarcely any blossoms. No one can give a
satisfactory explanation as to the cause of
the blight. IL IS 80 marked, that il affords
topic for general discussion among the
peach growers. From conversation with
those who are familiar with the prospects
of peach crop this season. We ascer,ained
that IN Sussex county, and the lower part
OF Talbot, Caroline, Dorchester and som.
erset counties, in Maryland, there win be
but few peaches.
In New Castle, Del, and the upper por-
tons OF Kent county, Del, aud in Kent
and Queen AIMS, Nd, the prospee, Is
very fair Though no general estimate
can be made at present, il Is thought by
the best informed fruit growers that the
crops viii reach two or three million ba..
kets, There will not be 50 many Of
" Hales Early this season, the eIperi.
enee Of last sumner having disguised
many Of the growers, aud thousands of
trees OF this variety we're pulled Nd and
other kinds substituted. The new orch.
ards coming into bearing this season look
very promising, while the trees that bore
50 many peaches last year, and old tree,
are not doing 50 well.
There Is fair prospect for large crop
OF strawberries, one Of the importan, sour.

Last season eighty ear loads per day we're

containing 5000 quarts. The shipment 81
