BAD FOR PEACHES.

Information received from the low
or counties of the Eastern Shore of
Maryland and Virginia states that the
peach crop and other crops generally
have been ruined in that section by
the severe winter, backed by a slow
coming spring. A gentleman recently
from Accomao county, Va, and Dor
chester county, Nd, said he walked
through several orchards himself and
could discover no signs of life among
the trees. The farmers have been un-
able in many places to pillow or plant
their crops. Reports generally say the
Eastern Shore peach crop will be a
failure this year.

ing events; for learn that James Bu-
ford and his associates have just sold
about nine thousand acres of land out
there for large sum Of money.
RAILROADS.
That new railroad will be speedily
built east and west through the centre
of Iron county, there can be no doubt.
A corps of engineers had located the
line nearly to Kaolin, and before this
time have doubtless reached Dent
county.
This line, running from st. Mary's
on the Mississippi river to the st.
Louis and San Francisco road, will
give US over thirty additional miles OF
railroad in Iron county.
In addition to this road, and speak
ing more generally of Southeast Mis-
souri,, we see one road being built from
Cape Girardeau west, and another from
Springfield eastwardly. That these
two roads are destined to soon form
one.great thoroughfare across our State
I have 10 doubt. s
Then the road now terminating at
Salem will be extended south through
Shannon county to a junction with the
Cape Girardeau and Springfield road.
Another road is likely soon to be
built from Poplar Bluff or Dexter
through Stoddard and Dunklin coun-
ties to Helena or Memphis.
When these roads are completed
giving US over four hundred miles of
new railway,-a new era will dawn on
our Southeast.
Our iron hills, our mines of lead, cop
per, and zinc, will resound with pick
and shovel, drill and dynamite; and
our great forests, with the lumber
mans ak and the steam whistle.
Thousands of new farms will be open
ed, and our population and wealth
will probably be doubled in decade.
Lands that are now despised will be
sought for; those now worth one and
five dollars an acre, will soon be five
and fifty dollars an acre.
And so my predictions of two years
ago, that we would soon have 'new
Southeast" are being fulfilled.
