Peaches Next Fall.

One OF our exchanges in the peach re-
gion thinks, sif forebodings be correct
we shall not be embarrassed In any such
way as we were with last years peach
crop, during the coming summer, but the
likelihood is, in fashion very much the
contrary thereof. From the Delaware
orchards the news reaches us that the
recent warm weather has played havoc
with the hopes of the iruit-growers,
whose downcast minds see nothing for
it but failure, more or less sweeping.
The apple and peach trees were deluded
into the idea that spring had come, and
so put forth their tender buds, prey
for the killing frost. A fruit failure this
year would be more than usually yex-
ing, when 80 many strangers will take
up their quarters among US. But, though
truit-groWers make such doletul lumeu-
tations, hope will not entirely away.
Perhaps, even, it is only a cry of wolf to
excuse prospective high prices; per-
haps, and more likely, the damageadone
has been magnited by fear."

A Tough Story about a Cow.

The Fond du Lac (Wis.) Common
in the town OF Eden, the mother of a
handsome cali, was crossing the rail-
road few days since. She had cleared
the last rail when the passenger train
appeared. The animal FASTENED toward
the fence. Looking back she saw her
offspring standing on the track. With a
frightened look she made piteous but
useless appeal to the foolish little Great
ure to follow her. On came the train,
and still stood the calf, by this time tac-
ing the train. The engineer tried to
scare the little fool away by making the
whistle scream, but he wouldn't scare.
When the train was within ten rods of
the calf the COW made a rush for her
silly child, caught him on her horns, and
bore him away in safety"

rison, o. We are informed by the OPP
orator there, Mr.. Cauthard, who is a very

standing the fact that the family live
five miles in the country, and there was
no guarantee for cost OF delivery, he, at
his own expense, procured special
messenger and had the message deliv-
cred in about an hour. There was no
other message sent, SO that no blame,
but on the contrary, much credit at
taches "to that end OF the line."
