The United States will be benefited by
the war between Russia and Turkey in an
other way besides increasing the price of
grain. Foreign securities, owing to the un4
settled condition Of affairs abroad, have be-
come somewhat shaky, and capitalists are
therefore anxious to invest in United States
bonds. Secretary Sherman has just succeed
ed in negotiating with promin mt bankers of
Europe and America loan of $25 100000
at par in coin, at 4 per cent. interest, $4,000,
900 Of which is TO be used for resumption
purposes, and 10000 900 to reduce the G per
cent, bonds. This saving of Q per cent. in
terest will amount to 100000 year, and
correspondingly tighten tie burden of the
national debt. 1t was the course pursued by
the Democratic majority, in submitting to a
great wrong for tie sake of the country,
which inspired foreign capitalists with con-
fidence in the stability of our government,
and in our ability and willingness to pay the
national debt, no matter what party admins
tered its affairs. 1t is believed that COM
plcte return to gold and silver payments is
not far distant.

Tomato Raising in the Second District.

On almost every farm within five or ten miles
OF this place may be seen to-day the "hardy
sons of rustic toll" bowling beneath the stern
necessity not of making hay while the sun
Shines" but of setting out tomatoes while the
ground is wet. From the best means we have
of knowing, it is thought that fully 1000 acres
of our lands in the second district will be cul-
tivated in this valuable crop. The packing of
fruit and vegetables in this vicinity has become
an immense business, requiring a cash capital
of quarter to half million of dollars. This
amount, of course, is not all distributed among
out people, but the gross proceeds of the in.
dustry will, we think, foot up to the above
amount. We have had delightful rain here,
and oil interested are now setting out plants
There are from 40 to &c canning establishments in
East Hartford, so that no one need complain of
scarcity of canned goods.
WHEAT AND PEACHES.
The wheat crop in the second district looks
splendid.
A fair crop of peaches will be gathered in
Hartford, SO that we will enjoy asupply at home
not being dependent on Kent county nor the
Delaware Peninsula, for this delicious fruit.

dogs, and was tried under the act of 1876,

dogs chargeable for the sheep killed. The
court below awarded damages to the amount
