City they still cultivate them to
some extent. You can plant from
September until February, some
times a frost may nip them through
the winter but they are hardy vine
and will stand quite frost without
injury. The varieties are so hume

that it is hard to say which is the
best; the Daniel O'Rouk, and Phila-
delphia Extra Early will be found
good enough for early. The wrinkled

Lettuce, radish, spiral parsley,
sage, okra, and nearly all Of the
numerous varieties vegetables can
be grown easily and lu4uriantly.
But two things have made failure
in viz: Pie plant or Rhubarb and
Horse radish. The former starts
well in tall or spring but invariably
dies before the summer is out while
the latter lives, but loses all its pun
gent taste; in fact is almost as taste |
less as dry stick.
l am sorry I could not give
brighter picture OF results than what
l have, but l thought it best to tell
the truth, the industry will continue
to develope and increase, of that
there is no doubt, and as the lines OF
rapid transit are heightened out fur
Their South the industry will gradu-
ally work down that way. The rich
hammock lands OF South Florida
with the earliness of the seasons will
give them every advantage over
more Northern competitors at least
in what you may call the two great
staples OF garden vegetables; namely
cukes and tomatoes. Transports
ton. will no doubt improve for all.
The present plan OF common box
cars will no doubt be superseded by
something more suitable and better.
Lastly freighls viii COME down, L
certainly expect to see the rate 20
cents per crate in two or three years
more, and hoping that this and ali
other industries peculiar to our sunny
cline may yet be able to work out
not only their own salvation but the
salvation (pecuniary) OF those en-
gagged in them.

Cumberland County.-We copy the fol-
lowing from the Cumberland papers
of last week:
Mrs. Whiteman, an aged lady who
lives with her son-in-law, Mr.. John
Schmohl, baker on North Hanover St.,
accidentally fell down flight of stairs
on Monday evening and broke one of
her arms between the shoulder and ell
bow. Mrs. Whiteman is eighty-two
years old.
On Monday afternoon last, 1.-The denizens
and pedestrians on North Hanover street
were startled by the rampage of an infu-
rated bull which butcher John Arney
was driving to his slaughter house.
The animal became enraged whilst
passing out Hanover street and start
ed out the street on rampage.
When near Penn street the animal
rushed upon a little son of Mr.. A. w.
Sipe, who happened to be on the street,
striking the boy with his head throwing
him about ten feet on to the pavement,
causing the child's face to be severely
cut and bruised by striking the pave
ment and bruising him severely by the
collision. The boy was unconscious for
about fifteen minutes and suffered
severe spell of vomiting, but is now out
of danger Leaving the boy the infuri-
ated animal rushed out the street, sever
al persons making narrow escapes from
his horns-one aged gentleman being
assisted over fence by his beefship.
The beast was finally captured and on

Highway Robbery.-Our readers will re-
member few months since of the rob-
berry of VIM. O'Brien, during drunk
en- spree, and of the final restitution of
the money to Esquire Zinn, in very
mysterious way. Last Monday night
Billy got on another spree during which
he was attacked by some parties un-
known, and robbed of gold breast pin,
which was torn from his shirt bosom,
and considerable money, ranging as per
numerous reports, from $50 to $104.-
Billy was pretty well bespattered with
mud, which almost if not altogether,
ruined good suit of clothes. Some
time after the robbery the conscience of
the thieves reproved them to such an ex-
tent that they returned all the money
we are told-with five dollars additional
to pay for the loss of the pin. These
things are becoming little too frequent
and if not soon put stop to, the lives
of our citizens will not be safe on the
streets at night. We learn too that Billy
O'Brien is not yet twenty-one years of
age, but yet he can secure enough liquor
to make not only himself beastly drunk
but Others of like intemperate habits,
drunk; and also that there are persons
who knosO where he gets his liquor, but
for some reason or other they will not
prosecute the offenders. Newport

On Wednesday night of last week,
three children of Mr.. Michael Stoner, of
Fermanagh township made, narrow
escape from death by suffocation from
gas. Two were twins-a boy and girl,
aged fourteen years, and a boy aged
twelve. They had gone to bed about
eight o'clock, and not long afterwards
the balance of the family retired, except
ing a son who was from home. The abb
sent son returned home about eleven
o'clock, and on going mp stairs found
the room filled with gas, which was
caused by the stove-pipe having come
apart. His two brothers and sister were
completely unconscious from the effects
of the gas. They were carried to the air
below, being unable to speak or walk,
and remained so for several hours. 1t
was feared that they could not be restor-
ed, Dr. Crawford was summoned at
once, and got there about midnight and
rendered the proper medical attention. -
They are since quite better and doing
well. Had it not been for the absent
brothers. return in the night, they GER
tainly would have died long before
morning from the effects of the gas.

Albright Seen.-The Harrisburg Patriot
revives the Albright murder by publish
ing the following:
Mr., James Wright, who formerly kept
the Cross Keys Hotel at Rockville, for
over a year past has been residing at
Leadville, doing business there and in
its vicinity. He returned to this vicinity
a short time ago, and we believe intends
shortly to revisit Leadville and perma-
nently locate. In conversation with
prominent citizen of Susquehanna town.
ship Mr.. Wright stated that being a
former resident of Perry county he knew
Albright well, but had not heard of the
murder committed by him until recently.
That some time ago he saw Albright at
work in the mining district at Leadviile,
but before he got a chance to speak to the
fugitive thelatter ''made himself scarce"
Mr.. Wright did not know of the murder
at the time, and thought 1t strange that
Albright should shun him, as both were
old acquaintance. Mr.. Wright declares
that the person he saw was none other
than Albright, and thinks that if an
effort was made the fugitive could be cap
tured. This story of Wright's goes far
to corroborate that of the lad at Milton
who made affidavit that he saw Albright
subsequent to the alleged finding of his
dead body in Girty's Cave.

About Horse Thieves. The Juniata Sen
tineL says: The quiet and successful
way in which the horse that was stolen
from Jonathan Keiser, of Delaware twp,
last year, was taken out of the county
and never heard of, has led to the belief
that some one in Delaware twp, is
"hand and glove" in with the horse
thieves. The belief is greatly strength
ened by the recent thefts at Thompson
town, whereby Mr.. Brenner loses a
valuable mare and set of harness, and
Mr.. Seiber loses good buggy. About
three o'clock in the night on which the
horse and harness and buggy was stolen,
man in buggy driving bay beast
crossed Clark Ferry bridge. The man
would not wait for the toll-keeper to
come down, but laid the amount of toll
at the gate and drove on. The thieves
may have line of posts east of the
Susquehanna river

Nc man, however uHcleanly., would drink
muddy, dirty water. 4 party which occupies
a room for hours. breathing the same air,
might be compared to party of bathers drink
ing the water in which they battle. The pa-
tient must keep the window of his bed room
open. Night air is fresh air without daylight.
In close, crowded rooms, the patient suffering
from lung complaints breathes consum ptively.
By taking these precautions and using DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and Pleas
ant Pursative Pellets. fully one-half of the
cases of lung complaints would be cured in six
months. For cough and irritation of the lungs
do not always indicate the presence of con-
sumption although it may result in that dis
ease and if consumption has already become
deeply seated in the system, this is the most
efficient course OF treatment that can be pur-
sued outside of any institution that provides
special facilities for the treatment of this dis
