Peaches.
D1sPOsING OF AND SHIPPING THIS FRUIT BY THE
GROWERS.

The bulk of peaches raised in Queen
Annes county this season, seems to be
located in the upper portion of the county
and in the interior, some miles removed
from the water courses. In past seasons
when peaches have been scarce, the growers
residing along the water courses have been
the favored and lucky ones. In confrma
ton of this statement we cite the reader to
growers along the Chester river in this and
Kent counties, and also to the growers on
both sides of the Sassafras river Twenty
years ago the latter named section was con-
sidered the most favored spot of the Pen
insula for peach growing. Though peaches
are scarce, yet we hear of considerable
numbers going to market from favored
localities At Kirbys Landing, on the
upper part of Chester River, little steam
er, with a carrying capacity of six or seven
hundred boxes, makes daily trips between
that point and Crumpton, where connec
ton is made with the steamer Commerce.,
which makes daily trips to Baltimore.
The Commerce and her consort, the little
steamer running above Crumpton, are ex-
tensively patronized by the growers who
have sold their fruit to Messrs. Numson IL
Sons, Baltimore fruit packers This firm,
we understand, has purchased the crops of
James R. Sudle, Ed. C. Coppage, Samuel
Phillips, Thomas, Samuel and Joseph
Mallalieu, Esqrs., for 81 per basket, de-
livered at Kirb's Landing, Hon. B. T. Biggs,
of Delaware, who ownes nine farms in the
neighborhood of Malllalieu's Mills, has con.
siderable fruit, estimated at IA 900 baskets
which he is shipping from Millington
Nearly half the fruit raised in the county
this season is grown in the first District
Messrs. Sudler & Gadd, fruit packers al
Sudlersville, have purchased up to thi!
writing 1000 baskets. 1t is estimated will
certainty that the peach crop of that sec
ton of the county will reach 10000 baskets
Coming further down the first place o
magnitude where peaches are grown is tn,
Round Top. The crop on the famou
peach farm is a mere drop in the basket t.
what it has been years ago; still amoni
such a wilderness of trees as is grown ol
1000 acres some fruit must be produced
The crop here is eitimated from 5000 t
1000 boxes. In this neighborhood jaime
Brown, Esq, may be put down as one c
the lucky ones who has fair crop. Co
Edward Wilkins is estimated to have
fourth or fifth of a crop on the Chamber
farm. The fruit in this section of tn
county is marketed by the steamer B. 4
! Ford and tug and barge put on the rout
= by Col. Wilkins to market his own frui

SOLID SOUTH AND SOLID NORTH.

SOLID SOUTH AND NORTH.
Nh. EprroR: Many Of us have been IN
noyed for the last forty years over the
negro slave question by a few fanatics. on
the subject Of slavery. THE question
finally eliminated in one Of the bitterest
and hardest-fought wars in modern times;
perhaps, considering all things, the most
desperate war OF tho world. 1t was brought
to . close by the Southerners laying down
their arms, acknowledging themselves
whipped, and as q consequence slavery
was at once wiped out. The people, many
OF whom who were rich before the war,
were left powerless and PROSTATE. but
yielded to fate and honestly set about re-
pairing losses. But politicians were not
satisfied, and to control the Government,
continued oppression in every possible
way. waving the "bloody shirt" until the
people became disguised and began to seek
new alliances, by denouncing sectional
elimination, until by sheer necessity
the Democracy gained control in both
Houses Of Congress. while the President
was forsaken, almost denounced. by his
party friends and received no word OF COM
rlendation from any single State.
Thus the Republicans, finding that their
last props were gone, they have raised the
cry Of a "solid South" in hopes of raising
the sectional feeling against the South and
Southern people for having the manliness
to choose between the two great parties,
and must be villi6ed for SO doing. The
writer Of the editorials in the daily Leader
wishes to be the Besconsield of the noisy
pack. The Enterprise has r~elinquished, in
a small degree, tho bloody shirt, but may
be expected. to join in with the rest in the
chorus ''Solid South"
There is talk about cremation for body
s~natchers. Carry il further and cremate
every mothers son who, in any way makes
m effort to keep up that hateful sectional
question between the South and the North.

There is no denying the fact that there

among voters must make politicians more
careful about the positions they assume.
An intelligent population. voting under

ssrily require candidates Of a higher type
than many who have heretofore been

THE WORLD OF FASHION.
How Society Ln4sics arc Expected to
DreSs.

An important revival is that of watered
silk, which is used in combination with
faille and satin and velvet. A new and ar
tistic style of ornamentation has been APP
piled to it, which is effective, consisting OF
gold embroidery outlining the watered de-
sign. Gold floss, in conjunction with gold
thread, is used for the purpose, and a fine
gold braid is also introduced, which assists
in bringing out the simple and tibrous
character Of the designs.
The richest velvet md satin dresses nave
q basque and single skirt, with clinging
front breadths, and a moderate train,
which may have panier drapery, or be a
court train, or else a straight flowing train.
The three breadths of the front and sides
are very narrow and closely gored, and are
fatty trimmed with panels of beads or lace.
The short Trinon snits for the street
have panier draperies behind. and other
new fancics, such as the Marie Stuart
sleeves, MORE vests, fur borders instead Of
iounces on lower skirts. Vatican polo
naise with Clarissa Harlowe ~scarfs, int
newest of all are the coat p~olonaises that
have also an overcoat accompanying them.
Black velvet is the favorite material for
dinner and reception dresses in conjunc-
ton with brocades and satin. Old gold
colored with black velvet, and occasionally
red facings arc added. Sometimes tho
three prevailing colors-black, red and
old-goid-appear in a small figured bro
cade beautifully shaded.
The quaintest Japanese buttons of silver
and gilt carved, or Of ebony inlaid with
| gold, are used ON short suits. For more
| dressy basques small bullet-shaped crotch
| eted buttons are chosen, or else small, flat
moulds are covered with satin, MORE or
velvet Of the trimming.
The newest plaid dresses Of Scotch wool
are Of small bars Of very quiet %colors. and
are made gay by many lows of narrow
| galloon, put on to produce the effect OF
borders like those seen on bandanna hand
kerchief dresses during the summer.
Hosiery for children comes in solid dark
colors, frightened by a band Of gay Scotch
plaid colors around the ankle, or else with
two bands that look like embroidery also
passing around the ankles.
Crepe de Sante is q new material for IN
derwear, highly commended by physicians,
as it is just sufficiently porous to be whole
some, and at the same time warm enough.
Black satin wraps are considered more
elegant han the black repped silk cloaks
of last year. They are long, clinging, and
have square slice YES.

The half-baked financier who presides
over the dcstinies Of the United States
Mint, DR.. Linderman, urges that the
standard silver dollar which the United
States Treasury issues and receives at par
il virtually worthless, and ought not
10 be. coined ut all, and that the
coinage Of the trade dollar. which is
not . legal tender, and which the Govern
ment declines to take for postage
stamps, ought to be increased. When
everybody tries to avoid taking trade dol
lars, and many corporations receive them
only at q discount. Linderman wants to
multiply them indefinitely. The pretexti is
the benevolent provision Of coin for China;
but the result, and probably the object, is
the disparagement and depreciation Of the
legitimate silver dollar, which the Super
ntendent Of the Mint opposed from the
first. To coin any more Of the
Legitimate trade dollars, when they
will not circulate at par, is madness,
and can be advocated only by those who
hold that silver is a subsidiary currency
to be measured in its value by gold. The
Congress which passed the act remontiz-
ing. or rather recoining, the silver dollar
Of our fathers, will not be very likely in
its dying hours to discredit that queen of
coins by authorizing a vast issue Of coins
which are not money, merely to beguile
and bamboozle the innocent Mongolians.
The trade dollar has more silver in it than
sgood dollar requires I; but when it is not
: legal tender it lacks value as money, as a
bushel OF wheat would lack value as food
il it could not be ground. Our standard
dollar Of 412k grains contains three per
cent. more silver than does the silver
money Of Europe or Asia, and it is insanity
to disparage the precious metal, Of which
the United States produces more than all
the rest Of the world, by offering to China
~sxtravagant dollars which we degrade in
advance by refusing to recognize them as
q All we need is free coinage of the
standard silver dollar; that will give silver
. new value and bring it and gold to an
equality.
