CLAYMONT, DEL, May 18th. 1855
The outlook for good crops in Delaware was
never better, The peach crop, especially, is
promising and unless como unforeseen event hap

known The largest crop ever raised was In 1876
Cherries, strawberries and all the smaller fruits,

promise extraordinary crops.
The nomination for Mayor in w ilmington. on
Saturday last, was an exciting contest. There

The Governor seemed to feel glad of the action

highest terms of the worthiness of our President.
He intimated that the tariff is the single issue of
the coming campaign and spoke of the two par
ties going before the country for years with the
tariff reduction plank in each of their platforms.
He had not read the Mills bill, but thought well
