Advices from California are to the effect that the fruit crop thia year will probably oe considerably short, except as to tipples, grapes and pears. Os peaches, the indications are that there will not bo more than half the usual crop. It io too eariy to say wbat the orange crop will do, though the trees are said to be “aetling well.” The Washington Gaselle very trtUh fully says: “Whenever a man can't say a good word for the town io which he lives, it io not the place for him and z be ehonld aeek other quarter". Noth ing hurto a town worse than a disloyal citisen.

At tbs present day every trade must here its paper, but it is not every trade ttet has a dally paper devoted •xctarively to its interests. The beggars of Parle can boast that they srs thus favored. Tbe Parisian beggars, who, according to a Write* in Household Words, number about 8, 000, have two dally papers. One of them is entitled le Bon Guide It gives to Its subscriben a complete list of the beldams weddings and funerals to take place on that day, ao that they may be wa&poated ao best piaeee to pur sue tbeir calling.

It is unique In form, being written and not printed on the ooaroe brawny white paper used by grocers to wrap sugar in. i Its advertiaement columns are suggest ive: “Wanted, a blind roan to play tbe flute. Apply to tbe editor.” “Wanted for afashtonabio watering place a ene armed man; good references; security required. ” This psper contains, like the other, no tices of births, deaths and marriages in high circles. It docs not boast of a very large staff, for the editor, who is also sole proprietor, writes out tbe single copy of tbe paper and takes it round every morn ing to each of bis subscribers, who have tbe privilege of looking over this unique journal Mr » for minutes by paying the munificent sum of 8 cents a month. DiSterrat Views of a Waagman There is no lack of competitors for tbe office of executioner when the operation baa to ba performed In England, but in Ireland there to a great prejudice against undertaking it and there have been diffi culties sometimes in tbe colonies in find ing an operator. Marwood used to say ho never experienced any unpopularity in England and accounted for Calcraft being sometimes badly received by saying that “Mr. Calcraft never made himself agree able.” Going to Wales on one occasion to fulfill his office in the case of a foreigner w bo had committed several brutal mar dsna, he found himself quite papular and Was received at the station when about to deport with a sort of ovation, to which he responded affably, saying he hoped bo might “before long have occasion to visit them again.” On tbe other hand, on coming back from Cork, where be bad been to carry out the duties of bis profession because no native could be found to do the job, ho bad rather a rough experience, for on board the steamer he overheard a conver sation between two Irishmen, one of whom related that be beard the hangman was on board, to which the other replied that could be find him he would throw him overboard during the night. Marwood on this thought it well to retire to his bed in a dark corner and did not make hisap nearanoe any more until the steamer was wrtl in tbe dock in England.—Chambers’ JoflrnaL Enterprising Druggists.
