Girdling Fruit Irees.--As the practice Of grid
ling fruit trees is little known among US, wish to
call the attention of Farmers to it. When your
apple, pear, plumb, peach trees are full in the
blossom, take sharp knife cut round the tree, and
take out the outer and inner bark quarter of an
inch wide--scrape out every thing until you come
to the white wood. You will find that trees which
usually cast their fruits will retain and bring them
perfection. Take care not TO grdle too wide. The
doctrine is, that the sap of trees goes up in the
wood and down in the bark; when it comes to this
incision it stops and remains in the branches. ]
tried it last year by girdng some limbs and leaving
others. The difference in quality and quantity of
fruit was astonishing, and find this spring the grid
led limbs are much fuller of blossoms than the 9TH
ers. The ncision will heal over in the course of
the summer by the sap oozing down gradually
sirdled last spring the limb of an apple tree which
never held its fruit before, half an inch wide, thar
limb bore fine apples, the others none. The incis-
ion is not now healed over in any part, and find
that limb full OF blossoms and the others notI sup
posed the limb would die; but it looks as flourish
ing as the others-lt may heal over this spring
yet would not recommend girdng to wide.

PAINTING.

Nothing alarms by ISLANDERS SO much as seeing
person faint away This faning arises from fright,
loss OF blood, pains, and however unpleasant it is,
is rather an antidote cure, than disease for un
der iainting there is suspension of every faculty
during it the bleeding ceases, the pain is not felt Or
the object which caused the fright forgotten or
moved. 1t is very seldom dangerous and more
harm has arisen from improper modes to remove it
than from the fainting itself. Let the person be
laid In horizontal position, and pressure of every
sort removed; such stays, neckcloth, &c.s ifa
man let the shirt collar be unbutoned and nothing
tight remain about the arms or knees. Stimulants
are generally applied to the nose and fortunately
do no harm, because the person is nsensbe TO their
influence. If room, let the windows be open-
ed to cool the surrounding air, for if it be heated,
even that stimulus is too great for the same reason
IL is improper for persons to stand in crowd around
one who has fainted and whoiwants all The fresh and
cool air that can be admitted to him. Never shake
the body with view to revive the vital spark lest
you darken it forever.

GUNS CASE.

The following curious report, said 10 have been
drawn up by late learned judge is taken from
periodical publicatiel of New York.
Gun was indicted as common disturber Of the
peace Upon trial it appeared that Gun was fla
shy feLoW, all fire and toaC, and when little primed
was sometimes very noisy. That one day at SMITHS
(the prosecutor's) refusing to pay the shot, and
Smith insisting upon it, he kicked him, and loent
off. On the other hand it was said that Gun was,
in the main, quiet inoffensve creature, who never
did any harm, except when set on by others; that
Smith might blame himself, as he had OUercharged
him, and as some of the witnesses said, had even
attempted to rife him. The jury however, found
him guilty Of an assauEt--but, on motion of coun-
selor BtunderbmSs. in arrest of Judgment, Gun
was discharged.

oh do not talk TO me of love,
'Tis deepest cruelty to me;
Why throw net around the bird
That might be happy, light and free
1t may be sport to win heart,
Then leave that heart TO pine and die
The VOWS which now my bosom rend
May not cost you single sigh.
The love which is as life to me,
Is but simple toy to you;
The falsehood at which you but smile
Is death to one 80 fond, so true.
Then do not talk TO me of love,

Heed not what tears and clouds are mine.
