"a Richmond Enquirer, October IA, 1924.
The Corporation of Washington and the Direct
ors of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company,
have made arrangements to commence the Cahai on
the 4itll Of July next.
Mr. Clay has left Washington for his residence in
Kentucky, having taken the route through Virgin
ia for the purpose Of partaking OF the waters at the
White Sulphur Springs.
The Richmond Compiler says-''the Celebra
ton of the Fourth of July, at Baltimore, along with
the opening of the Rail Road, will constitute one OF
the most splendid spectacles that ever graced an
American City.
The Commercial Advertiser, remarking upon the
New York State Convention that is to assemble on
the esd July ensuing, for the nomination of Cover
nor and Lieut.. Governor, says The Convention
will meet and will present candidates tor the sui
fragcs of the people, thai aciN make the opposition
leaders trenble Even MIR. Van Buren,, the strong
est man in the jackson party, will not dare-mark
our wor,ls-will not dare to stand in opposition to
the administration candidate for Governor. We
are not speaking at random. The Candidates to be
nominated by the Convention on the esd of July,
will be elected by an overwhelming majority"

The editors Of the Nashville (Ten.) Gazette
have written an article intended to excuse the
dark stains with which Gen. Jackson's charac.
ter is soiled, by showing that some great men
have been guilty oc similar vices. On the sub,
ject Of horse-racing, they say that Lord Godol-
phin, ga celebrated aohig minister" in Eng.
land, was racer; that Fox was lover of the
turf; and that Lafayette attended horse-races
They distinctly admit the deliberate shooting
of Dickinson by Gen. Jackson, but say that by
the conditions agreed on, he had a right SC
to do. AS examples Of great men who have
been dnelists, they quote Fox, Pitt, Canning,
and Lord Castlereagh. In this way every rice
and enornaity might be excused. The General
has good cause to say to his apologists,

ed DR.. Fiske, DR.. Green, and others, of our
best horticulturists, have made the most minute
examination, and have been unable to discover
any trace Of the work of an insect. Instances
have come under our own observation, where
the disorder commenced in spots upon the bark

apparently sound and healthy both above and
below. In one instance, these spots were found
to extend down the body of the tree to the root
while most of the branches remained green and
apparently healthy. Cutting off the dying
branches has sometimes appeared to check the
disorder, but at other times no such effect hat
been visible, so that it still remains matter o
doubt whether it is of any use. Still, as it can
not be injurious, and as the appearance of th'
tree is improved by the removal, it is safest ant
