1t may not exist next year. The reac'

positive assurance which pending rail-

money invested IN them. Get them on
a business basis, so that whether next
season is favorable or unfavorable, the
stock will be provided and the induce
ment to prosecute the work secured by
what has already been invested.
The understanding has been and is
that the River roal must be begun this
season. The survey must be completed,
the right OF way granted, and the con-
tract for constructing the road executed
as far as the season will permit. There is
no prsy.s on for a season OF dilly daily

sumed that the counties through which
this road will pass, want it; that they
know a gooi thing when they see it
and that they will not want a whole sea
son or any great part OF it, to comply
with the easy conditions upon which
they are to get it. 1t is entirely prac,i
cable to have the grading all done before
the winter season sets in. On the open

AFFAIR NEXT FALL.

We feel authorized to say that the
first exhibition of the State Fair asso-
citation, will be held next Fall. This is
not Official" but We shall be very
much disappointed in the character OF
the association Just formed, ii it is not
the fact. The idea which few persons
seem TO entertain, that it is too late TO
prepare for an exhibition this Fall,
is simply preposterous, and We
arc sure, the opinion does
not Cbtais among those vino have the
responsibility OF providing for an exhi-
bition. The preparation of a catalogue
OF premiums and programme for the ex'
hibition is the only thing that is now
pressing, but there is time for this. 1t
is one OF the most important features OF
the enterprise, and demands the most
careful and thorough preparation; for
upon il the success of the Fair largely
depends. People will study the catalogue
with a view of obtaining definite
information as TO the scope and charac-
ter OF the exhibition, and will be justi-
fed in taking their ideas and drawing
their conclusions from it. Ii the cata-
logue is not attractive in its premiums
and programme, the people will not be
drawn to it. These catalogues should be
in the hands OF a majority OF the people
OF the State as soon as possible, that ex-
hibitors may have time to prepare for
the exhibition. In the case OF stock, it
requires time to make preparation.
And stock Of all kinds ought to fur
nish one of the most attractive features
OF the exhibition. West Virginia is
naturally stock raising State, and her
people should find every encourage
ment in a representative institution OF
this kind. We sincerely hope the Fair
will arouse an ambition for a better
quality of stock than we now have,
The era Iof scrubs" in our State
ought to end. There is common sense
as well as money in raising only the
better grades OF stock. The one will
keep our people poor, the other will
make them rich.

LORD REACONsFIELD.

1t is not easy to say at this time, what
estimate posterity will place upon the
distinguished statesman, Lord BEACoSs-
FIELD. II may be that when his public
career undergoes the searching scrutiny
TO which it will be subjected by those
who study it in the light Of coming
events, begun but not consummated in
his life time, he will not be ranked with
England's greatest statesmen as now,
but simply as a sagacious politician pos
sessing less breadth than adroit-
ness and cunning. But whatever
BE- the judgment of the future
upon his public services, I'VE are sure
there will be no DISPUTE about his being
a most peculiar character. We doubt
il there is another example in the his
tory of distinguished men, of one
having spent the greater part Of his life
dealing with the complicated problems
OF national government, who found en-.
tertainment in writing works of fiction,
and who after throwing off the burdens
OF public office which by reason OF sd-
vanced age, had become too heavy for
him, went into retirement that he might
at the age Of seyenty-fve, and among
the last acts OF his life, write a novel.
1t is best, perhaps, to say nothing
about the character OF the fiction which
Lord BEAcoNsFIELD wrote. The Eng
lish reader may fad entertainment in
them through reverence for the author,
but the American who can wade through
them is entitled to great credit for p2-
thence.
In addition to the works which are
already extant, Lord BEAcoNsFIELD is
said to have planned, prior to his death,
keeping the curiosity OF the world on a
strain for ten years to come, by reserv-
ing for that length OF time the publica.
ton OF certain papers he has prepared.
These. it is conjectured, consist of notes
OF all the principal occurrences in the
political and fashionable world, and that
the revelations which these posthumous
papers make will illuminate many a
page in the history OF the past. We
suppose the world will be able to pos.

THE FRUIT CROP.

1t is little early to make guesses on
the fruit crop. The reports from vari.
Gus sections are somewhat contradic-
tory. 1t is urged that in this State the
extremely cold weather OF. the winter
will prove beneficial rather than injurl-
Gus. The backward spring will keep the
trees from iruiting too early. New Jei-
sey reports peach buds hopelessly
ruined. The products will not meet
home demands. The plum crop as re-
ported from North Carolina has been
entirely cut off, and the peach crop seri-
ously damaged. A peach grower oil
Sidney, n. ]. who has an orchard OF ten
thousand trees, says he will have no
fruit to market this season. LouisianF,
Mississippi and Alabama report the en-
tire failure OF the peach crop and great
damage to early vegetables through re-
cent heavy frost. The young sweet corn
in a large part OF Georgia is dead from
the recent cold snap. The farmers
around Grantsville say that early vege-
tables have received a severe check.
Kansas reports that in exposed positions
the peach buds have been nearly all
killed, but orchards in sheltered posi-
tons will do well, so that small crop
will be harvested. Even in Florida, the
land of flowers and orange groves, fruit
and vegetable growers are wearing long
faces. Beans and peas have been ruined
and some growers are preparing to plant
corn where beans have blasted. Tomi :
toes are doing well and will be plenty

NEw YORK city is greatly excited by
the rapid spread Of the typhus fever,
which is attributed to the flthiness of

in that city against the do-nothing

equally great against the Legislature,
