SHIPMENTS BY WATER.

The MlddletoWn Transcript says.
Some of our growers seem determined
not to yield In their demand for cheaper
transportation for fruit. Several gentle
men in this vicinity who have for years
been heavy shippers by rail are now car
rying their peaches to Odessa and ship
ping them to Philadelphia by barge,
under the convoy of steam tug, which
runs daily from that place. Some of
these gentlemen haul their peaches from
right alongside of the railroad, making a
haul of three or four miles where less
than half would reach the cars. The
inducenient for this is the difference OF
freight. From Odessa to Philadelphia
the freight by boat is six cents per basket
the peaches being delivered at the wharves
and there is seldom any carriage to pay on
them. BY rail the freight is eight cents
and the carriage four-making difference
between boat and rail of six cents a
basket
From the neighborhood of Smyrna and
Clayton many growers are carrying their
peaches TO Rothwell's Landing and Bonn
bay Hook, whence they are carried by
the Pierrepont, at the rate of 5 cents per
basket, and no carriage, and from points
further down the river we understand
are being shipped across the bay to Bay
side. OH the Jersey side whence they are
carried by the N. j Central railroad to
Jersey City. What the freight is by this
route we are unable to state.
