Price of Fruit in Melbourne.— Splendid returns! We hear that the fruitgrowers at Harcourt are greatly disappointed in the returns for apples sent to the Melbourne jam factories, the cost of carriage and other expenses swallowing up nearly the whole of the price. After paying expenses, one grower got a O-Jd a case, and another lid a case for his apples, although, if the apples were of the usual good quality of Harcourt fruit, they would have brought Is or 5s per case in the market. "Ella," said Clara, as they were seated on the verandah of their country house, " I went fishing with Charley this morning-" "JDid you? What did you catch!" "I caught Charley."
