'sh- Peach Crop.


The n ueh-ia!ked of peach crop Las com
msnred to arrive in Baltimore he prospect
for good supply of fine fruit this year is as
good as in any season for the past ten years.
In 1875 tere w.s an unusually large crop
throughout Mary land and Delaware. Though
this years elop is large, it is not expected that
it will equal that of 1873. Ii is thought by ex-
perts that the crop will equal that OF 1879,
which stands next on the record 10 that OF 1915.
According to present estimates, 5Sl, 900
baskets of peaches will be shipped this year
f, ON the Eastern Shore of Maryland asd Della
ware by rail. Ii is estimated lha: two boxes
will make three baskets. A box is called a
bush.l, but holds me,hing less. basket
holds something over ha a bushel.-San.
This Is Ab:ut the Size of Ii.

AFTER you get on your ear and make up your
mind TO stop your paIer to make the editor
feel humliated. just poke Jour finger into
water and then pull it out and look Tor the
hole Then you will know how sadly you are
missed The man who thinks paper cannot
sprvive without his support ought to go off
a.,s st. awhile. When be comes back he will
had haf of his friends di MT know he was
gone the other half didn't care n cent, and The
world a, large didn't keep any account Of his
movements whatever. You will probably 6nd
s7ps,tning in your home paper you cannot en-
dorse. Even the Bible is rather plain and hits
lick tn ST
paper and call tie editor all sorts Of ugly
p4mes, tie paper would still be published
And what is more, you will sneak around and

Fully vindicated.
We printed an item from the Virginia
papers some time ago referring to the arrest o
James E. enents, Esq, formerly Of this
county, but now Commemorative Attorney
for Alexandria county, Va. upon the charge
OF criminal libel preferred against him by Benz
amin Austin, clerk of Alexandria cocnty
court, by reason of certain charges Of malfea
sance and misfeasance in off e made agains
the clerk by Mr.. Clements. We at the time
expressed the opinion that Mr.. Clements would
be fully vindicated 10 due ting. and We ars
glad to learn of that result. By way of defens.
Mr. Clements filed thirteen specific charges o
malfeasance against Austin, including emhez
element Of public money, and we learn from
the Alexandra papers that the jury have founc
eight of the specifications TO be fully sustained
by oof and three more of them sustained i,
part Mr. Clements is thus fully vndicated il
the matter and comes out with flying colors
while Austin has resigned his Office. We con
sratulale Mr.. Clements upon his complete sin
dication.
