Fall op Snow. Judge Siggios
writes us that from the 29th, of October
1873 to April 11th 1874, there was a
fall of 9 feet t inches of snow, by
measurement in Youngsville. Never
' Vheiless there was less' sleighing than
usual. Beside the snow there was an
unusual fall of rain for winter months,
taking it all in all, the amount of falling
weather the past season has been seldom
equaled. Warren Ledger.
A T0aNAD0 4.nl thunderstorm passed
over Erie, Monday afternoon. A man
was killed by the concussion. There were
no marks of lightning or other injury
upon bim. Several buildings were un
roofed. A church bell was swept from
the tower and carried 150 feet. Vessels
were torn from their moorings at the
docks, td lumber piles torn up and dis
tributed. The storm lasted but a few
minutes.
The March earnings of the leading
railways of the county show a considera
te falling off as compared with those for
the corresponding month last year, al
though the exhibit is a more favorable
one than for that of February. Seven
teen roads show a total of gross earnings
amounting to (3,326,729, a decrease,
compared with the corresponding season
last year, of $879,57-1. The net earn,
iogs have not, however, fallen off in the
same proportion; many of the companies
having reduced their railing stock and
forces, in proportion to the decline in
dusiness, caused by the working of the
eneoey markets and the unsatisfactory
condition of general trade.
A movement in the oil regions for a
"shut-down" on oil production for
ninety days has beeo entered into with
sufficient unanimity to augur exoelleot
results. Such a movement should have
been catered upon long ago. For more
than a year the petroleum markets of
the world have been glutted, and the
produot has beeo selling at a ruinously
low price. Nintey days of nonproduction
will stiffen up prices for a time and re.
lieve the depressson now prevalent
throughout the oil country. Of course
its effect cannot be permanent, and the
stimulation of the advanoed prices will
produce another period of exoessive
overproduction but a shut-down seems
better than no remedy at all for the
serious evils whioh have so long afflicted
tbs oil trade. Erie GqxUc.

'Those who have money

Old trench Song.
A few days ago Mr. Chalfant, State
Senator from this District, presented ne
the Senate a petition which resembled a
panorama. It revolved on rollers and
contained the names of 9,000 citizens o
the counties of Lycoming, Sullivan,
Cumberland, Susquehanna, Columbia,
Montour, Berks, Lebanon, Fayette.
Chester, Bucks, Allegheny, McKean,
Tioga, Bradlord, and Montgomery,
praying for tho passage of an act pro

"Winter lingering in the lap of
spring causes a vast amount of dis
satisfaction. It may interest the gram-
oiers to be reminded that ninety-nine
years ago things were quite different,
and the complaint was that it was too
hot. History informs us that on the
18th day of April, 1775, the apple trees
in Massachusetts were in full bloom,
and the weather extremely hot. The
party of Butish soldiers who made an
excursion from Boston to Lexington and
Concord suffered greatly from the heat
of the day, as well as from the warm
reception with which they were greeting
by the inhabitants Bntton Globe.
The Registered Letter business.
On the first of January the Postmaster
General reduced the rate for registered
letters from 15 cents and the regular
postage to 8 oents and the postage.
Since that time the business has increased
over 100 per cent., the average increase
in large cities being from 50 to 75 per
cent. The present rates compare verv
favorable with those of England, al
though there are many difficulties in
this country not to be met with in the
smaller and more thickly populated
counties of the Old World. The las1
annual reports show that in Canada the
loss in registered letters and packages
was 112; in Great Britain 20, and in the
United States 100. If tho increase of
business continues thougbout the year
five million registered letters will be
sent, against two-and a-half million last
year.
Tub Delaware 1'each Crop. The
fruit growers of Delaware held a meeting
on Monday, at Dover, at which the
prospects of the peach crop were discus
scd. It was agreed that the buds in
Southern Delaware and eounties ia
Maryland of same latitude, or farther
South, are almost entirely killed, having
been in full bloom at the time of the
sharp frost of the 11th and 12th ol
April. In Middle Delaware the early
varieties are generally safe. North of
Dover tte crops are still promising, and
in Newcastle county, including some of
the best orchards of the State, the buds
ot all varieties are substantially uniojur
ed. The prospects, therefore, up to this
time, is good for an average crop, and th e
growers estimate it at 2,000,000 baskets
which is probably too low a figure.
A strong effort is mak ing iu the
Pennsylvania Legislature to repeal the

"I was a boy at Braddock's defeat io

They convicted a man of murder in the

The Rev. Mr. Kerns, of Clintonville,

A well-to-do farmer named Carpenter'
residing near Woodbury, Gloucester
county, N. J., together with a physioian,
were arrested on Saturday, charged with
infanticide. The circumstances as re
ported are that the infant was the result of
improper intercourse with his own daugh
ter, a girl of fifteen years, and. to bide
their shame, it is alleged that Carpenter
poisoned it. There is much feeling,
against the prisoners, and a guard if kept
about the jail to prevent violence to
them.
