Humboldt Is to have a mass meet.
ing tomorrow night, to try to get up
stock enough to build cotton mill.
The Journal dominates Hon. Hi
ram I. johnson for our next State
Senator. He is a talented man, and
would represent the district creditably
to bis constituents and himself.
We endorse every wcrd of the fell
lowing and heartily thank Messrs.
Transou for their kindness. Thepeach>
es are indeed beauties, and the earliest
we ever saw here. Northern fruit
raisers viii make note of this.
Editor Exchange:
We send you specimens of the first
ripe peaches of the season. This is
remarkably early. Plucke1 from our
orchard May precisely one month
earlier than We ever have commenced
to ship such varieties as Hales and
Tillotston. Those we send you are
the Alexander early, well formed and
developed, and large, measuring y
to s inches in circumference, and del
icately colored for SO early in the sea-
sou. This is one of the Lew varieties
of early peaches. and the earliest on
record. We hope to send you speci-
mems of Amsden, Beatrice, Rivers
Early, &C., as they come to maturity.
1t is true the present season is in ad>
vance, perhaps several weeks. We
have Just commenced to market the
May apple; so we have May apples
and May peaches lipe together, just
in proper condition to ship, and only
10 days later than the first ripe peach
es in Georgia. This, we think, does
very well for Gibson county, and will
be hard to beat. Yours truly,

HUNTINGDON.
From the Huntingdon Republican

Louis. Deshong, of Milan, came to
town Monday evening, having driven
thirty miles in three or four hours.
His horse, a good one, died the nexs
day.
Mr. Deshong says the above states
ment is false. That heleft here early
in the morning, and did not reach
Huntingdon until nearly night.
We learn that some villain entered
the stable of VIM. Blank, few miles
from town, one night last week, and
and injured one Of his horses by cut
ting its tongue. The perpetratOr
should receive the same treatment.
From the Huntington indicator.
China Wilder, Esq, an old highly
respected citizen of this county, died
last Monday. He was the father of
our fellow-townsman, James Wilder.
The new NJ. Z. Church known as
Kyle's chapel, situated some six or
eight miles east of town, will be dedi-
Gated on the first Sunday in June.
Services will be conducted by Rev. J.
Z. Cole, and will begin at 10 a. m.
We believe majority Oft the people
in Carroll county, to day, would be in
favor of a law prohibiting seining or
trapping fish. Asst is now the streams
are kept continually drained, so that
it is neither sport or satisfaction to fish
with a hook.
Mr.. S. NJ. Rixey, of Havre de
Grace, Nd, the polite and gentleman
ly agent of the Fish Commission,
brought to our creek, last Monday, So
600 young shad. The fish were in ex-
cellent condition, and we have every
confidence that they will prove of i'm
mense advantage to the people of this
county.
We regret to learn that our friend
Lon Holiday, living south of town,
had the misfortune to have his house
and all it contained, burned on last
Sunday. Mr. Holiday and his fam
lily had gone from home, and it is not
known how the fire originated. Mr..
HIS loss is more severe, as he is COM
paratively young married man.

The Mirror man is somewhat dis
gruntled because we expressed an opin-
ion in regard to tramps adverse to his
motions on the subject, without going
into a long argument to prove the good
judgment of our position. We assure
our accomplished contemporary that
we had no idea of treating him with
contempt" and. further, we had not
thought to class him with "small per-
simmons" although, judging from the
way he is puckered about it, we might
conclude Ae had been eating green per-
simmons. We did not have space to
spare, Bor did we consider the subject
of enough importance, to fill a column
with arguments about it. Labor
saying machinery viii be invented, inn
proved and used as long as it will pay,
and tramps viii beg and steal until they
are compelled to go to work, and our
opinions and arguments will not affect
she slightest change one way or the
other. The EXCHANGED Rees paper,
and has net room to discuss theoretical
questions at length. We leave fine
spun theories and abstruse problems to
be discussed by reviews and other pub
Iications which make speciality of
that class of literature. We try to
publish facts in little space and with lit
tie comment. If the Mirror can find
work for the idle, epd PIT them at It,
we will publish the fact with pleasure.

We we've shown on Monday last, by
DIR Happel, acuriCsity in the shape Of
an Irish potato vine. Ithad produced
an abundant crop in the ground ml

the stem itself. We counted eight
@eh-developed specimens of tubers
that had grown above the ground,
clinging closely 10 the stem of one
branch Of the vine, and were assured
that the remaining branches We're
equally as productive. 1t is a hybrid
from COmpton's Surprise and the
