A NUMBER of citizens from this place
and elsewhere boarded the steamer
Frederica ON Monday last for Phila-
dephia with the intention of attending
the Republican National Convention.
The steamer Frederica is having a.
large passenger trade to and from
Philadelphia during her weekly trips
of the past and present month These
will be larger the coming month.
The rains of the past week have
nude the crops fairly jump from the
ground and progress toward maturity
with rapid strides Truck gardening
w well on the way and vegetables and
garden products of all kinds promise
to be very plentiful in this locality.
The writer in company with a friend
had the pleasure of going aboard the
Mary U. Citizens while at this wharf
pr Monday last: found Captain Dur
borough and crew as polite and accom-
modating as ever. and every thing as
clean as one wished to see. She is
making her regular two trips week
with freights increasing each trip
The beautiful fields of wheat which
looked SO golden the past ten days have
baen cut and a large portion will be
threshed before the close of the present
month. 1t is said that wheat har-
vest is the earliest this year since the
year of 1879.
Many of the farmers in this section
complain that the Colorado beetle, or
$40 called potato bug, is playing havoc
with their tomato patches. while fields
of plants have been badly damaged.
A new insect that is causing the most
trouble is a small black and yellow
beetle, which is a great destroyer to
all growing plants. It's name so far
has not been given by the scientists.
IT. is feared if these bugs continue that
the tomato crop will be short in this
section.
DR. T D. Hubbard had a number of
hands employed the past week in grad

and when completed will be of great
pleasure to the occupants The first
bali of the season at this place will be
given in Hotel Hubbard this evening.
Good music and pretty women will be
in attendance.
The peach, pear and apple crop never
booked more promising at this season
of the year along the eastern shores of
this county than it does at present.
According to the census taken, this
village only has 113 Inhabitants, only
an increase of % since the one previous
to this.
