NEW DEAL PRoBARLE-NEw 1EADs TO THE
FINANCE AND wATHR COMMITTEES.
It is quite probable that re-arrange-
ment Of the Council committees will take
place. This suspicion ia justified from the
fact that when Mr.. Murphey took DR..
Bailey's place he was temporarily appointed
to the vacancies in the committees caused
by Dr. Bailey's resignation. Mr.. Hayes re-
signstion is not = new thing, but has been
in contemplation for some time, was no
doubt known to Mr.. Mclntire, and WAS
probably the moving cause why he inter
jected the word temporarily" into his mo-
ton in filling DIR. Bailey's vacancies with
Mr.. Murphy. Mr.. Hayes retirement from
the Council takes away the head from
two important committees, the Water and
Finance, and it is hardly probable that Mr..
Pyle, the new member who is to succeed
Mr.. Hayes, will be placed at once In both
positions with oil their grave responsible
ties. Rumor says that Mr.. McIntire is to
become chairman OF the Finance Committee,
but we can hardly credit such story. It
is more probable that he will be made chair
man Of the Water Committee, and that to
Mr. Pyle will be given the arrangement Of
the finances, rs he IL better qualified for
this position than he would be to direct the
building of the new basin. Mr.. Mcintyre
has some knowledge Of engineering, and
would probably prefer to take charge Of tho
reservoir work, with which he il already
identified. Mr.. FsrrelPs name Is also spoken
OF in connection with the craftsmanship Of
| the Water Committee. Still there 10 no
knowing what the Democrats will do in their
present inharmonious relation, and they are

formation Of the Committees ~ they arc

COL. WILKINS IMPORTS PEACH TREES FROM
ENGLAND.
The steamship Ohio, which arrived on
Saturday, brought to this country from
Southampton, Englsnd,a lot Of peach trees,
consigned to Col. Edward wilkins, who re-
sides near Cbestertown, Kent county, Nd.
The fruit which grows upon those trees is
represented as of very hardy ape
cies, OF iine flavor, of . variety
hitherto unknown to this country, and
well adapted to our climate. Colonel Will
kins, who has devoted much time aud capital
to peach culture, has at considerable ex.
pense imported these trees, with the pur-
pose, IL possible, Of improving the fruit
grown III his orchards. The plants were
shipped yesterday, and will be placed in the
ground to-day. Some time since Colonel
wilkins imported number OF new variety
OF pear trees from France, apd has been
very saccessful in their cultivation.
