THE PEACH CROP.
Prospects Not Encouraging.

New YORK, March 2s.-The Times ac-
counts given by the frIit growers Of
Maryland and Delaware OF the present
appearances of the peach orchards OF
these States do not give encouraging
prospect ani seem to confirm the accuracy
OF theory published in the Times in the
winter, that the excessively cold wealth.
er prevailing not only greatly endan.
geted the peaches for the coming year,
but in the orchards themselves. The
fruit growers of these States during
the past week or two have
become alarmed because Of the failure
Of the fruit and leaf buds to show signs
OF healthy life. One farmer, in cele-
brated peach centre, writes his landlord
that he has made careful investigation
OF the peach orchards on the farm, and
he cannot find live peach bud among
all OF his ten thousand trees, and he
thinks the trees OF the old orchards are
all killed, as thdre is no sign OF life in
the leaf buds.

Formidable Rebellion Against Ayoob
Khan.
LONDON, March 2S.-A dispatch from
Candahsr says: A formidable rebellion
prevails in Herat. Ayoob Khan is per-
haps already exiled or prisoner. Mo-
hammed Hasan Khan, Governor OF
Kushk, induced three Herst regiments
stationed at kushk TO mutiny and join
him, and the Amak tribes in an attack
on Herat. 1t may be safely inferred
that the murder OF Mohamed
Jan, who commanded these
three regiments, was the first act
Of rebellion, instead OF the result Of
a private quarrel. At last accounts the
rebellion was so formidable that Ayoob
Khan was virtually besieged in the
Citadel. This gives favorable oppor-
tunity to Abdurrahmsn Khan to reunite
Afghanistan under the supremacy Of
Cabul. Five thousand OF his trosps are
now on the road hither, and should be
in full possession of the Candshsr
province by the 18th Of April. An i'm
mediate advance on Herat, il Ayoob
Khan is not expelled or killed before
then. could, in the existing state OF a.
fairs, scarcely fail to be successful.
