LARGE YIELD OF WHEAT. Thomas Kirby. et

No PEACHES IN CEcn.-The Cecil Democrat
says a trip through the lower districts furnishes
information as follows Of peaches there are
virtually none. In the early spring trees were
full, but blight caused by frost or curculio
fell upon the fruitand it all dropped off. This
condition is worse in Cecil county, is bad
enough in Kent, but below the Chester river
does not prevail.
It is estimated by those engaged in wheat
threshing that 10000 bushels Of wheat has al
ready been threshed in Tuckahoe Neck, en-
bracing an area of not exceeding six square
miles, and it is thought when the crop is com
pleted it will exceed 50, 600 and may probably
reach $4,000 bushels. We believe there was
more wheat grown upon Caroline soil the pres
ent season than ever before in single year

An Action for BIramv.

Reuben G. Warren, of Cedar Creek Hun
dred, Sussex county, (near Milford), in 1868
married Miss May R. DerricEson a young wo-
man l6 years old, the daughter of Nathaniel
NJ. Derrickson of the same locality. They liv-
ed unhappily and separated after three years.
After being separated for year or more War
ren again set up housekeeping at Harrington
and sent for his wife who came with the two
children and again lived with him; but in
three months time he again left her and went
away to Philadelphia, so that she was COM
PEELED to return with her children to her
fathers house. After two years she accepted
the hand of another young man by the name
Of VIM. Truitt, of Andrew, and they were
married in February last by the Rev. Mr..
Haynes Of Milford, who, of course, was entirely
ignorant of the facts involved in the case: On
Saturday last, says the Milford Ne,es, the first
husband returned, mad, after consulting a
lawyer he had his wife and her second husband
arrested and held to bail, the former for bigany
and the latter for adultery or some other crime.
II appears that the parties had full knowledge
Of all the facts involved, but seemed to think
that the first husband would not care, and
that no one else would take any notice of the
wrong doing. They all seem to have been re-
markably ignorant Of the legal responsibility
that their act involved. After the conclusion
Of the hearing the double wife made affidavit
against the first husband that she feared for
her life at his hands, but before the writ could
be issued he had left for parts unknown and
has not since been found. The constable will
arrest him on this charge as soon as he can find \
him.

LAND SALEs.-Mr. William K Rathell, auc-
tiuneer, on Saturday last sold for /. G. W.
Powell, Esq, attorney for mortgages, a farm
Of 100 acres on Tuckahoe creek, Chapel Dis
trict, to jeremiah L. Beachamp for $500.
During a heavy thunder storm last week, in
Wicomico county, the wheat crop of one John
Bounds, which had just been harvested and
stacked in the field, was set on fire by light
ming and entirely destroyed This Bounds, a
year or SO ago, created quite a ferment in
charging adultery upon his wife and Rev. Mr..
Graham, young Methodist Protestant minis
ter What rendered the case particularly ex-
citing was the fact that the minister had but
recently married prominent young lady Of
Chestertown. 1t was always believed that
Bounds was actuated by pure malignance, as
there was not the least foundation Of the
charge, and he knew it.
WHAT A WmRLwND DD.-One day last
week whirlwind struck the farm of W. Allah
Hayman at Kingston, near Princess Anne, up
rooted a number of his apple trees, blew his
strawberry crates all over his farm, smashed
the window lights out of his house, knocked
articles off the mantels and broke them, ripped
a number of shingles off the roof Of bis dwell
ling, took off the henhouse, unroofed and blew
off the foundation of the smoke house and un-
rooted the carriage house and barn. Some Of
the roof was carried mile and half
PASSAGE OF A STEAMER THROUGH KENT MAR
Saturday, the 2sth ult., thesteam-

Baltimore, made successful passage through
Kent Narrows and, in consequence of the
facilities Of the passage will hereafter adopt this
route to. Baltimore. Col Craighill, 0. S. en-
gineer, has been engaged for several weeks
past in Strengthening the channel and making
other necessary alterations and improvements.
A wharf viii be built at the narrows in a very
short time and viii be used this season, for the
shipment of peaches and other products to Bal
imore. This route considerably shortens the
distance from the several Wye rivers, Eastern
Bay and Niles river to Baltimore, and also
furnishes steam navigation to a large scope Of
country, which has heretofore seriously felt the
necessity of steam commsnication to Baltimore
