Court was kept dp all last week, and re
convened on Monday, the 12tb, for argument.
The introduction of the tomato into the
United States is given as follows by an ex
change; A good many years ago a man
who had recently come from the Bermuda
Islands was aent to Tork County Fa-, jail,
for some offence. Me bad with him a few
seeds, which he planted in the rich soil of
the jail yard. Before the plants which
sprang from the seed reached maturity he
was discharged, and nd one knew the name
or nature of them. They grew luxuriantly,
bearing fruit of a large size and nnusual ap
pearance. As this strange fruit ripened, its
color changed froiii green to a brilliant red,
and became an object of wonder and admi
ration to all the inmates of the jaii.
Just when the fruit was fully matured,
tne Bermuda prisoner revisited the j til, and
asked to see the plant. This request grant
ed, be called for pepper, salt and vinegar,
and to the b'-rror of the lady keeper, com'
mrnced to cat of the fruit, which she sup
posed to be poisonous, with a relish that
astonished the beholders. After enjoying
the strange repast, he informed her that
the fruit or vegetable was the tomato or
inmt-annf. and it would be found whole-
some and nutritious. The seeds' of the re
maining tomatoes were carefully preserved
and distribuited among the friends and
neighbor's of the lady, and thus this now
popular escnlent was introduced into
the ancient and goodly borough of Tork.
For many years thereafter it waa cultivated
as to ornament rather than for table use,
but by decrees its merits began to be more
fully understood and appreciated, and there
as elsewhere, it grew into general public
favor.

ed that as it was for Hancock it b not be
coming in it to do iu beat to excite the Gar
field men against the Arthur people. The
advice was well meant, of course, but it
seems to have been lost, which perhaps is
not to be wondered at, considering the tact
that the Tr&vti baa lost iU politics, h

or iU heels, whether it Is a Democrat or a
Republican or a Greenbaczer. It has not
the merit of being a balf-breed ; it is a ques

pronounce it a political octoroon. But no

Fisher b not the worst Congressman in the
worid, but he has some bad appointments at
Washington: Which does the Tribune

has lost its identity. It is the common
talk, the truth of which b not vouched for
here, that the Tribune and its coterie are so
mixed and have lost their political bearing
that they do not know what they are, and
that ih this county they have already cut
out a ticket for next fall, which b, a Repub

ship, aged 61 years, 6 months and 11 days,
died unexpectedly 6H the bight of Sunday,
the 4th inst. Mr. Smith had been in a tol
erably fair state bf health all the past fall:
About 10 o'clock on Sabbath evening he
complained of being too warm in bed, and
of being thirsty. Mrs. Smith deemed it
best that he should not get np to get a
drink, for fear that if he did so lie might
take cold after being so warm, therefore she
brought him a drink of water. He sat up
and drank it, lay down, and never spoke
fter that, and died before morning. Inter

It is a well-known fact to intelligent ob
servers that men and women of eisy virtue
are always on the spy of other men and

sinuating remarks about other people. So it

politics. So it is with the Tribune and Her
ald, thai have no politics. They are in
quisitive, and insinuate against every man
that does not train with them. They have
become deeply concerned about the politics
of the editor of the Sentinel and Republican.

it is here stated that the ed'tor cf the Sen

boyhood days been a Republican of the

cast was for Abraham Lincoln in I860; He
voted for every Republican Pre$ident from
that time to this, and for etcry Republican
State officer froni that date to this, inclnd
ing General Baily. He was for Grant at
Chicago. He has never voted for a Demo
cratic Conzressman, Assemblyman or sen
ator. He has never voted for a Democratic
county officer, excepting for a District At
torney once when the Republicans had no
candidate in the field. He has repeatedly
voted for Democratic township officers.

a Democratic county officer. In the Ute

The following nersons were summoned to

Chaa. B. ttHe, Jaa McCormick, jr., and H

The Tribune seems to be exercised over
what was said in tbe Sentinel and Republi
can concerning Congressman Fisher and
pertain antmintmenta at Washington. The
character of the men 'appointed at Wash
ington by Congressmen has during tbe many
past years been the subject of earnest dis
cnaainn bv Rernhlieans. and condemnation
by Democrats. Cut of bad appointments
at Washington have crown the talk and ef
forts at "civil service reform." Congress
men who have been keeping unworthy men
in office have always heretofore managed to
get the public attention directed against the
Administration and beada of departments,
so as to screen themselves, just as the Tri
tune directs attention from its own work by
shouting boss at others; just as the Tribune
shouted boss to cover up its tracks when it
was shoving its relatives and a lot of other
kindred spirits into the jury wheel. It does
Sot care so much for Fisher ai It doea for
the fact that the Sentinel and Republican
stated that the Congressman had come out
igaJnit a Speculative Life Insurance com
panv for nsing hb name as reference with
out bb consent. That wss what pinched
the Tribune man, for he had his name on
grave-yard insurance paper, as reference.
He shouts boss to cover tracks. How many
poor fellows were moved into investing to
their loss by bis name win never oe Known
till the judgment day, but the probability is
that tbe number revealed will be less than fen
thousand. He and ex-Judge Junkin and
the political piebald jacobin troupe that the
Judge had over from this county to Bloom
field to help defeat Spotrtlet can figure out
the grave-yard insurance rtlerence bnsineaa.
Shout boss and get as many 25 cent tax
payers into the jury wheel as you can.
