Delaware Ctmpurrd t s'nllfornlii-The Pitt,
tend rmtnte Abend -."More Than 14 TrfM to
Rack Inhabitant.
The Wllmlnffton Commercial, the Amerlfiitn
peachi?rower' "orf-an," ha the following In its
yenterdajr'a issue:
An item Is Rolnp tho rounds of the paper,
find bas been published in thin one, stating ttiat
'the State of California has 800,000 peach troos,
cr about five to everr voter enough to produce
more than 100 pounds annually for every person.
The figures are large, but they are official and
are supposed to be correct. Those figures may
sound large to people who do not live where
peaches grow, but they seem somewhat insigni
ficant in this latitude. California has an area of
188,083 square miles, Delaware has nn area of
21'JO. and tho Eastern Shore of Maryland, ad
joining her, has an area of probably about 3000
square miles.
The Delaware Railroad and its branches f nr
nlhh transportation for the products of those
two Congressional districts with a united area
of not much over5000 square miles, and a united
population in 18(50 of 257,314. In tho year 13(ltt
there were growing along the lino of this road
(the greater part of them in Delaware) 1,053,205
peach trees. By tho Spring of 1809 the number
(counting none under one year old) had in
creased to 3,050,010, and from the large number
planted last year it Is probable that the present
Dumber along the line of the road Is at leiwt
4.500,000. All the figures except those of the
above estimate are oillcial, made from actual
count by the agents of the road, for the use of
the freight agent, Mr. A. Brown, to enable him
to make his estimates. They do not include at
all the large orchards, the 'fruit from which is
sent to market by water, and concerning which
we have no definite data, but which probably
have one-third the number of trees of those
along the railroad.
Taking only tho estimate of 4,500,000 trees
along the railroad, which does not represent
anything like tho whole number on the Pouln
eula, and making a liberal estimate of tho popu
lation, still these two Congressional dlMtrlcts
have, instead of five peach trees to each voter,
over fourteen to each inhabitant, and in Dela
ware tho proportion is much greater, as her
population is smaller than that of the Eastern
Shore, whllo probably four-fifths of the trees
re in her limits.
FATAL ACCIDENT.

anion A Veteran Inntantly Killed.
Tho 8pringfleld (O.) Advertiser says:
From John M. Fish, who returned to the city
last Friday evening after a business tour in the
northwestern part of tho State, wo receive in
formation of a lamentable occurrence attending
the annual reunion of the 04th regiment at Fiqua
on tho above mentioned dav. Among the crowd
at the Troy station, on the Dayton aud Michigan
Railroad, awaiting the arrival of tho train from
tho North, at six o'clock last evening, was a
young wife, expecting to greet her soldier hus
band on bis return from Piqua, to which place
he had gone for the purpose of participating in
the annual reunion of bis comrades of the vote
ran 04th O. V. I. As the train drew up at Troy
-station tho unfortunate lady was met by sympa
thizing friends, who broke to her the terrible
news that her husband had been thrown from
his horse, while taking part in a sham battle,
and almost instantly killed, his remains being in
ttio baggage car. The wife gave one heartrend
ing shriek, and fainted into the arms of the by
standers. The affair caused great commotion at
the depot, and in the confusion our informant
was unable to gain any further knowledge as to
the Identity of the parlies before the train started
on its way.

The Cltv Amusements.
Thb Italian opkra. This evening Ferrari's comlo
opera of i( will be performed for the first time,
with Miss Kellogg and Slgnor Ronconl in the lead
ing rolta.
II Trovator Is announced for to-morrow.
AT Tim Chbhnut a new drama by Bouclcault, en
titled Mercy hodd, was performed last evening. This
piece Is In two acts, and considerable ingenuity is
shown in the construction of the plot, the concomi
tants of which are burglary, swindling, forgery, and
other similar crimes. A moral tone is given to the
play, la the author's usual style, by making virtue
triumph over evil, but the theme is certainly not an
pleasant one, and Mercy Vottd will scarcely achieve a
brilliant success. The first act is exceedingly dull,
but In the second act there are some elective situa
tions and some lively dialogue, in Bouclcault's best
manner. The play was creditably represented last
evening, and there were some good bits or acting,
but the performers did not appear to be in love with
their work, and the general effect was not Inspiring.
Much better In every respect was the performance
Of the comlo drama of A Uueband to Order, which
was given as an afterpiece. This Is a very lively and
entertaining little comedietta, with the merits of
which most of our play-goers are familiar. It was
very nicely acted, and Miss Howard, Miss Laurens,
Mr. Mordaunt and Mr. Jack represented the princi
pal characters in excellent btjle. The same bill
will be repeated this evening.
To-morrow Miss Laura Keene will have a farewell
benefit, previous to her departure for Washington to
fulfil a professional engagement made before assum
ing the management of the Chesnut Street Theatre.
On this occasion will be presented Matrimony; She
Madt and The Actress by DayluihL This is an excel

plimented by a crowded house.

Total amosnt to bo tamed $2,500,000
Capital Stock paid in 2,100,000
Estimated Coat of Koad (140 miles) 4,500,000
Estimated Earnings per annum.... 2,630,306
Net Earnings per annum 879,768
Interest on the Loan per annum... 175,000
Amount of Bonds per mile of Road 18,000
Amount of Interest per mil...,. 1,260
Amount of Net Earnings per mile. 6,284
The Bonds follow the completion f the Road
bare the Union Trust Company of New York aa their
Official Register and Transfer Agent and are sold at
present at 96 and accrued interest.
They bear examination and comparison better, It
Is believed, than any other now before the public, In
the flxod and unchangeable elements of Safety, Se
curity and Profit.
They bear good Interest Seven per cent. Geld for
forty years and are secured by a Sinking Fond, and
First Mortgage upon the roadk Its outat, and not in
come, the Franchises, and all present and future ac
quired property of the Company.
They depend upon no new or half-settled territory
for business to pay their Interest, but upon an old,
well-fettled and productive country assuming that
a railroad built through the heart of such a region
offers better security for both Interest and Principal
than a road to be built through the most highly ex
tolled wilderness or sparsely settled territory.
. This Ballroad possesses special advantages. In
running into and out of the City of Chicago, an Im
portant Railroad and Commercial Centre; In ran.
nlng through a line of villages and old farming set
tlements in the richest portion of tne State of Illi
nois ; In running near to deposits of Iron Ore of great
extent and value, and over broad fields of the best
coal In the State which mining Interests are Its
monopoly. And besides the local and other business
thns assured, there will be attracted to this road the
considerable traffic already springing up "from the
Lakes to the Gulf ;" as with its Southern Connections
ltformB a Trunk Line 40 miles shorter than any other
route from Chicago to Nashville.
These Bonds are therefore based upon a Reality,
and a Business that a few years must Inevitable
double and competent judges say treble In value.
Governments selling while the price is high pay
well If put Into these Bonds, and Trust or Estate
Funds can be put Into NOTHING BETTER.
