TRUE PLUCK.
How a Southern Lady supported
Her Family From u One.Acre Lot.

Charleston Is. - ews.
There were those who knew nothing
Of labor in former years, aud since the
war have yielded to the pressure OF the
times and been reduced to absolute want
This has been the fate of many Southern
families of rs good blood rs ever coursed
through human veins, and these natural
born gentlemen and ladies are to be
pltied IN their poverty. Their former
lives were not calculated to prepare them
10 battle aga u>t the trials that cruel war
has brought upon them. But they are
really admirable in their present destI-
tute condition, for not murmur ever
escapes one OF them. Occasionally there
crops out from among this class an midi
vidusl whose pluck can but excite the
admiration of all VINO kLow him or her.
And Just such person Is u lady "a

the lower coast OF South Carolina, with
whom he has had some correspondence
lalterly, and VINO wrote as follows on the
18Th of June:

IRISH BLESSINGS
Bestowed In Court BY SprightIy
Old Lady and Her Daughter.

There said Margaret Cullen, of No
"A Cherry street. to Justice OLterbourg,
OF the TOmbs Police Court, Yesterday
afternoon, placing before His Honor "a
l.r,e TUT of her own Chestnut locks in y
piece OF paper, that's what them three
women pulled out oil me head D
The three women stood op-
poslts to Margaret and were
defendants in the case OF Cullen vs..
kelrns. The h"irrs party, mother and
daughters, hsv" the happy faculty Of
converslng 10 Irish and the amount If
prompting done in that ancient tongue
~ each gave ner testimony wes tr"mend-
Gus. The record against the heirns 5
WAS That they did call deponent all

pretty good sized fists they We're too.
Though all this was sworn T. by Mar
garet. u bnXOm lass avid ~ fist OF her
own" the court was about To- dismiss all
parties with reprimsnd, when it turned
GU: that when Margare. wss down on
the hoo-, receiving her pummcIllng, she
had the bud manners 90 faint. For this
stupid failing the ka,rns party tainted
her, calling her "moignty delicate, IN
dade.'
This shocked the Court and turned the
tide OF affairs straight against the de.
PENDANTS. The Court said the remark
showed feeling on the part OF de
PENDANTS, and he would, therefore, fine
the old lady and her daughters - apiece
"Nabklish, SAID the elder daughter TO
her mother, and with y shake of the
head. Never mind, we'll have another

When the S6 had been paid the

in English, and the old lady, losing h"r
temper. repeated IN English what she
had said in IRISH, for which the Court
ordered her to be looked up in the box
for five minutes.

The Peach 4uestiou-Corresp

President Hinckley.

The peach growers committee Of
the peninsula on thes ga o,
June sent letter to President
Hinckiey, of the Phllsdelphis, Whining
ton and Baltimore railroad. in winch
they gave their views and wishes II re-
gard to the transportation OF the coming
peach crop. They ssk-frst, = reduction
in freight In accordance with the man
cial shrinksge on 81 values; second, that
no discriminstive tariffs in favor OF any
route or routes be laid, but rather that
no artificial measures be undertaken al
tempting to influence prices, leaving 10
the markets and growers unrestrlcled
liberty to settle the supply; third,
that the chartered car system be retain
ed
Under date of July 2 President
Hincklev answers the committee that he
believes his board of directors will not
order any change in the peach tarrl1
last established, which, in his OPINION, Is
based upon as low rates as the railroad
companies can afford. He says the chlef
saving in the plan substituted Tor tue
charter car system Is in the reduction OF
the number of cars employed IN the
peach business, and declares that II tAe
charter system were continued his com
pany would not have consented to pre-
sent rates. The evils of the charter sys-
TEN were never fully developed before
1873, when many OF the compsnys cars
were run but one trip during the season.
In concluding his letter President HInck-
lsy says:
az regret that you believe that our
charges sre too high. Those prices have
been reduced one-halt within q few years
On accountSf low charges, or some

this, since Major FINK, who was the chief
man under General MALONE, and who was
recommended as one of the receivers by the
General and his friends, is now directing
the operations of the road. Major FINK
was understood to be the manager OF the
road while General MALONE was engaged in
his long lobby-campaigns in this city. We
are surprised to learn that he is f'smash-
