through the hands Of Rev. Father
Thomas Toner, of Downingtown, the
sum Of $50 which had been placed in
his hands by a person who has
wrongfully received the amount
from the company presumably for a
bogus claim Of damages. II is the first
money thus received by the company, and
1t has led to the opening Of new at-

THE Republican machine politicians

man in the county who can
not pay his taxes If he
makes reasonable effort to
pay. II there were it would be pusillani
nous to complain. He should assert his
rights, It is difficult to keep from
laughing at the pitious whines Of those
dead beats who make their living by
pusillanimous whining for the benefit Of
their party. They are paid mourners
who wall about the corpse Of defunct
Republieanism.

The Passing Of the Peach.

The Passing of the Peach.
Salisbury Advertiser.
We had occasion to note sometime ago
the fact that some Delaware parties had
made purchases Of land In this county
with view Of growing peaches Since
then ". + Causey, Esq. has purchased
of Hon. r. Stanley Toadvin a tract Of
|, 200 acres on Quantico creek with the
same view. Mr. Causey thinks
that the peach business in
Delaware has had its day. He
looks at the matter in very sensible
manner. The lands Of central and north.
ern Delaware, he reasons, cost at least
three times as much as our lands Id the
chances are that when the orchard is
about ready to begin bearing, it win
become diseased and consequently turns
out TO be worthless. Everything points
70 this county as being the peach centre
