Everything, SO far, indicates that the peach
crop on the Maryland aud Delaware penin-
stla will be unprecedented this. year, both as
to quality and quantity. In all parts Of the
peach growing district the most ilattering
prospects exist, and information from every
point is favorable. In the upper part OF Della
ware and the eastern shore OF Maryland the
trees are not yet fairly In bloom, but farther
down the blossoms have been out for several
days The buds are healthy and well
developed, and few give evidence OF falling
of or Of premature decay. Old growers say
candidly that they have never seen the trees
more full OF buds and seldom seen them pre-
senting healthier appearance. The only ap-
prehension now Ia that the young peach may
be- Injured by the frost.

while around about he has accumulated

exhorter at times, and was very successful in
the evangelical field. He writes a very good
hand. and though his spelling il mixed he is
above sublunary matters in his thoughts. He
commenced his autobiography in note book
found among his effects, and had covered two
pages when his Literary work was stopped either
by his arrest or call for ''boots" Here's what

life in general, and his own most especially

THE NEW YORK BATTLE GROUND,
What the New YOrs Papers Say Concern
iNQ COnkLinQ,S Defeat.

What the NeV Yorh Papers Say Concern
ing Conhling's Defeat.
The Tribune says, on Conkling's defeat:
'Several considerations tended to this result.
There was growing feeling that it was neither
fair to the officials concerned, nor good bust
ness policy for the government, to force into
the most important Office under the secretary
of the treasury an official openly hostile to
him. Above all, there was strong feeling
that the New York custom-house should not be
permitted to become an open sore on the body
of the Republican party. One way or another
the matter had to be adjusted, and the Sena-
tors found it easiest to adjust it by keeping in
the men against whom no complaints were
made. The settlement is of this ong-continued
controversy is hailed with satisfaction by the
Republicans in Washington, whether they like
the way in which it has been settled or not
The fight against these last nominations was
made by Conkling against the judgment of a
large majority of the Republicans in the New
York delegation, who could see no good end
to be sub-served by it, and in this many other
Republicans, among them some who voted
with Conkling in the Senate, agreed. Conk-
ling seems to have asked the advice Of none of
his political associates, and to have acted
wholly on his own sense of what was right and
proper in the premises. The hope is expressed
tonight by Republicans of every shade of
opinion that the result of to-day's work may
be accepted in good faith, and in something Of
the same spirit which pervadeu the Republican
party in New York last fall at the Saratoga con-
vention and afterward in the campaign and
still later when the Senator was reelected
Harmony is the Republican watchword, and
every Republican will be expected to contribute
his share to securing it, no matter what may
be his private disappointments. On this point
there seems to be absolutely no division among
influential members of the party in Washing
TOM
The Times says: ''The struggle became q
mere trial of strength between opposing DO
litical powers and the result has az little to do
| with the character of either the new collector
or the old one as it has with the forgotten prin-
ciples of civil-service reform. Coakling's de-
| feat may serve to remind him that tact and
moderation are quite as necessary qualifications
of a successful politician as the power Of in
| vective or the trick of calling names. Neither
Conkling nor any one else, however, can derive
from the success of the administration in this
struggle any encouragement for political hon
esty or personal consistency
The World says: Having no leadership or
concerted plan of action, good many Demo
Gratis took advantage of the liberty in non-es-
sentials left them by the caucus to vote for
Hayes nominations. They did this obviously,
under the impression that, by doing it, they
would weaken the Republican party in New
Yo:},. There was not much more civil-service
reform in this course than in the course of
Sherman and Hayes, and it remains to be seen
whether there was or was not much political
gumption in it"
