learned Yesterday from people about the
city. from several parts OF the county, and
from along the Halifax line, that the peach
germs have been destroyed. Il is said that
in some sections the twies are As dry as they
were in December; in others there may be
some blossoms. The general impression
seemed to be that the apple-germs have not
been damaged. This destruction Of the fruit,
however, was not the result OF the cold
spell which has been upon Us for several
davs, but it was caused, 1t il said, by the
general irregularity Of the weather since
the 10Th of February.
The weather yesterday was very harsh.

issue bonds for more than $4,000
without special act OF the Legislature.
He recommends that the Council eXpend

making as much Of the work as possible OF

he takes occasion TO say that "tbe mortuary

"that little epidemic OF last summer" was

AS to the Best Policy.

We have read the States article on the

wear BY the regular Democrats In Virginia.
We would concur in It's conclusions II we
thought It's premises well established. The
policy we recommend is based upon the as
sumption that to compel the Besdjusters
TO take sides now is TO compel them 10

no doubt. that some OF his folloWefs

such Democrat as they had supposed bim

glance 10 the Democratic party. Such men
need no further evidence. But there are,
we repeat, many Readjusters who viii not
surrender their confidence IN their leader
until they have more or better proof that
he has left the Democratic party.
I, is not to be presumed that the Admin
istratioD Is gong to allow GRANT party to
be built up here In Virginia. CoNKLING,
CAMERON, and LOGAN are the men whom
General MALONE regards as his strongest
supporters IN Washington. BLAINE, GAR
FIELD, and SHERMAN, will hardly furnish
the GRANT men with stick with which to
crack the head OF the present Administra-
ton, put GARFIELD out OF office in 1885, and
restore the GRANT rule. Nor VIII C0NK-
LING, CAMERON, and LOGAN aid General Ma
HONE long unless he falls in with their plans.
These are mere hints. But they will serve
TO indicate why we counsel the Democratic
party OF Virginia to make haste slowly.
