no MAKE FRUIT TREES BEAR

TO MAKE FRUIT TREES BEAR.
On every large branch, near the stock
OF the tree make cut in the bark quite
round the branch. AT the distance of a
quarter of an inch, cut round again, and
take out the narrow strip Of bark, leaving
the wood bare. Every branch thus trea-
TED will blossom more than other branch
es OF the same tree, which are left upgir-
died. The fruit too, will be larger and
better. The bearing of young trees may
be FASTENED in the same way the chief
advantage of which would be to ascertain
the kind of fruit. This experiment is
easily tried on few branches and if i,
does not succeed, the injury can be blu,
rrifling. Taken from Saxon publica-

MISCELLAN EOUS.

Original .hnecdotc Of George III.
When George Ill. was at Weymouth,
he frequently rode in the dress of pri>
yate gentleman, attended by one servant
in private livery. On one occasion he
was once overtaken on Dorset Downs by
shower. The king tuFnei 10 his SER
want, and ordered him TO gallop to the
nearest house. His majesty himself en-
tered hut close 10 espot, and said to
the shepherd who was sitting inside
"WIIi yoU give me few minutes shell
ter ?" "ro be sure | woul," said the
shepherd J "come in, and sit thee upon
yon barrel" The Peasant was cutting
large lump of fat pork, which stood up
on slice of bread thick as the pork, and
swallowing pieces large enough to make
a score Of Courtiers vomit. The mon
arch considering himself unknown, and
at liberty to converse freely. said, IL see
my good fellow, you have substantial
meal upon your bread you eat with
good appetite; but don't you think it
you'd eat better upon a silver plate ?"
"A silver plate No." replied the saep-
herd. "Why not, friend ?" Why, Eur,
you know as well as l do,that great folks.
who eat out of silver plates, have no APP

heartily at the shepherds contempt of
opulent manners, and observed, that al

might have no objection to gold" Tie

REMARKABLE STORY.

A letter from Paris, of the 18TH
March, relates the Neutrality-suspicious.
story:-"At Perpignsn, few daysago,
a Spanish refugee Monk of the army
of the Faith, entered q tavern, where
several French officers were seated
One of them, at sight of the Monk,
discovered great agitation, suddenly
started from his seat, drew his sword,
and pursued the Monk, with the evil
dent intention Of putting him to death.
He inflicted severe wound on the ecs
clesiastic, before he could be rescued
from his fury. When questioned by
the commanding officer respecting the
cause Of this violent conduct, he said
that during the last war he had been
taken prisoner by party of Guerilla,
and that sort Of Military Council, at
which this individual Monk presided,
had subsequently, condemned him to
the horrible death of crucifixion, from
which he was only preserved by lie
opportune approach ola party 0, French
troops. The officer then exhibited one
Of his hands, to show by scar which
remained, that the dreadful work OF
torture had actually commenced. 1t
was found necessary, in consequence
Of this explanation, to overlook the act
Of aggression committed on the Monk.
