One q the boldest and most suc-
ceest0l caees Of forgery that has prob
sbly ever happened In Montana took
place . few day. ago, but the facts
have eeen supptessed until the all-
th0sitleo he'd taken proper stems for
securing the criminal. Charles I1ati-
mer, lately employed BY Mr.. w. 8.
Stocking, forged the name 0f his en-
ployer to the amount Of one hundred
and forty-two dollars. John Evans
advanced sos On the check, know
ing the man to have been In the eu,-
pl0y Of Mr.. Stocking and that the lat
ter vas perfectly good for theamount.
On presentation 1t the hank, however,
the forgery was discovered, but
too late to secure the criminal, who
had In the meantime taken passage
on the steamer Bate. Dispatches
have boen sent to various points on
the river and It 70 thought that II the
authorities do their duty the crilni-
nal cannot escape.
This b the hrst forgery Of importance
that has ever taken place In Benton
and probably the most serious that
ha0 occurred In the Territory. It was
we'll planned for the reason that the
man being we'll known 10 suspicion
could be attached to him, and under
similar circumstances any bank In
the Union would have been justified
In ceshing the check.-NeMion Re-

NUT.BEARING TREES.

GENTLEMEN OF THE AGRICULTU-
RAJ AND POMOLoGICAL ASSOCIATION
OF THE PENINSULA Perceiving that
the annual meeting of the stockholders
is to take place on the 28th inst, l de-
sire to call your attention to the various
nut-bearing trees of your section, and
to some which flourish upon the soil OF
Delaware and Maryland, and which
might be cultivated much more eXten-
sively and with profit. There used to
be, and I presume it still stands there
a fourishing pecan-tree, near Middle
town. This kind of nut-bearing tree
might be multiplied throughout the
Peninsula. The mammoth shellbark-
tree of the mountain regions of Western
Maryland might, 1 have no doubt, be
made to flourish upon your hickory
ridges and uplands. The chestnut, the
hickory nut, and the chinquopin, al
ready abound on the Peninsula. But
what l wish to call your attention to
more particularly is the English wal
nut-tree. Your Indian walnuts are
unsurpassed. You might grow the
English walnut with equal facility.
Permit me TO state that on the prem
ises of the Mayor of this city, Thomas
E. Martin, Esq, native of Talbot
county, Nd, there is now standing a
large English walnut-tree, which
yields, annually, about ten bushels of the
largest and finest English walnuts 1
have ever seen wonder that hat tie tie cal
ture of this variety of nut-bearing tree
is not more extensive. An immense
number could be produced and annually
shipped to market, affording an addi-
tional source of profit, when the trees
should be Of sufficient age. Our fathers
planted trees for us. Let us discharge
the obligation by planting trees for
those who may succeed us. The length
Of time required for this variety of tree
to become profitable, should be no bar
to its production, as 1 have never seen
in the confectionery shops walnuts as
large and fine as those grown upon the
soil of Maryland. Very respectfully,
HENRY VANDERFORD.
Residence. WESTMINSTER,
Carroll County, Md.

| purchased five bottles Of your Hop
Bitters of Bishop & Co. last fall, for
my daughter, and am well pleased with
the Bitters. They did her more good
than all the medicine she has taken for
six years. VIM. Il. MCCLURE.

health as any person in the country.
We have large sales, and they are max
