member, was short time since sentenced
to hard labor in the Sing Sing prison for
fifteen years, being five years On each Of
three several indictments. The sketch
which was then furnished by our Reporter
of his career Of crime, must have convin-
ced the reader that he is person of singu-
lar address and ingenuity and this last eff
fort to escape shows degree of skill and
daring fully equal to any of his former
feats. How he possessed himself Of the
sailors suit is not known. 1t is supposed
that he made portion of it of the bed
clothing with which his cell was furnished,
as only few small remnants of those arti-
cles were left. His hat, it is thought, he
found means to tar or blacken with matcri-
ais secreted whilst he was employed in one
of the shops connected with the prison.
On being taken out Of the prison on the
morning in question, he probably found
means unsupported to carry out with him,
in the bucket with which each cell is sup
piled, the dress which he afterwards assan,-
ed: and the change of apparel was effect
ed behind a rock that shelter ed him from
observation for few moments, and in
which place his prison dress was after
wards found.-N Y. Jour.

once in four years at least; no injury will
result, but more healthy and vigorous wood
will be formed and greater quantity of
fruit be produced as peach trees seldom
bear more than or 2 years in succession,
the succeeding spring after abearing year
should be selected to perform the operation.
Young wood will then be produced, aud if
the season be favorable, yield good sup
ply of fruit the next year, as the second
years growth is that which mostly, if not
always, produces fruit in the peach tree
The evils of a contrary course Of pruning
consists in the limbs towards the bottom of
the tree becoming sickly and dying the
top running up SO high as to be exposed to
the wind and consequently being broken
off, and often splitting the trunk to the bot
tom and aAording less quantity Of fruit
and that of an inferior quality. No better
time for pruning peach trees perhaps can
be selected than about the 1st of June.
The mode and time Of pruning may appear
TO those who have never made the attempt
at variance with their ideas but it is e1pe-
rience, not theory, that has dictated the a.
bove remarks.-N E. Farmer.
