MOVEMENT OF GEN. GAINES.

Although it would not be prudent 10 con-
denim the course of Gen. Gaines in cross
ing the Sabine, without knowledge Of all
the motives controlling his movements, we
nevertheless consider it a step Of deep and
solemn importance, and cannot avoid ex-,
pressing our regrets that he should have
deemed it necessary to violate the territory
of a friendly power without the most urgent
considerations. Hitherto the government
ofthe United States has not been commit
ted by single act In the contest between
Texas and Mexico-the power and the
right Of preventing emigration TO Texas,
Of prohibiting citizens from espousing the
the cause of Texas, is Of very doubtful
character, .and would, in our estimation, be
highly irnpolitic, even admitting; the right
so to do-but it is a far different question,
and ola very wide distinction between in-
tertering to prevent the act of others and
doing tha: very act ourselves. The cross
ing Of the Sabine by the troopsof the Uni.
ted States is an overt act, an invasion to all
intents and purposes Of the territory of a
friendly power, and as such it is matter Of
great regret. We wish to see Texas free
once free we wish to see it annexed 10
the confcderacy on grounds of mutual
safety and protection, but we would not
sacrifice the national faith in q single IN.
stance to secure the liberty of Texas, or
deviate fremthat straight forward, honest
path, in which it is the duty, as it should. be
the pride Of the great American nation to
tread.-N. Y. Star.

Life in Mississippi.-A letter from a
gentleman in Benton Miss. dated July 9th
to his friends in Alexandria ID. C.) contains
the following:
sour community has been thrown into
q state of excitement in the last few days,
by several shocking murders. The first,
was the case Of an overseer who killed q
negro on the plantation of John b. Pease.
Verdict ofihe inquest deliberate and VII.
full murder" The ferson charged was,
brought to town, examined before q ptstice,
and admitted to bail in the sum OF $1,000!
The second was the murder Of Mr.. Har;
ris, who was killed by man named Blrd
and his son Wade Bird. A dispute arose
about tuition bill when the birds felt eA
Harris, the old man holding while the son.
stabbed him fifteen or twenty times with a
dirk, till he fell and expired Harris fought
manfully, having during the scuffle shot the
son in the abdomen and wounded him Sc
verely in the back, besides stabbing the
elder Bird several times. The Birds have
been committed to Vicksburgh jail. Two
or three davs after this, VIM. S. Eastwick
shot man in Manchester named Allen 2
mail rider, but was acquitted on his exaIlll-,
nation before magistrate. Public opinion
goes against this decision.
Besides all this, there, has lately been
some lynching Of some shopkeepers on
the road between this and Manchester, Tor
selling whiskey to and harboring negroes.
Each of the lynched received about one
hundred lashes. One Of them has taken
| refuge here, bu. has received notice TO
quit the state. Many of our citizens are
opposed to this practice and are resolved
to maintain the supremacy Of tine avs.
They have determined therefore, to RESIST
the illegal attempts Of the lynchers."

TO RENOvATE FRUIT TREES.

From the 2oth to the 22d of this month,
June, being the longest days Of the year, if
the bark Of old apple and peach trees is
peeled off, ION those days) a new bark will
come on, and the trees will bear fruit like
Young trees. Care must be taken not to
cut through the sap, as it will be the cause
of separation Of the new bark. Caution
must also be taken if the sun should shine
hot, or ifit should rain on that day, that a
shelter be made TO prevent the sun from
drying the sap, or the rain from washing 1t
off. tried this experiment on few Old
trees about 3 years ago, and found they
got new bark, and bore fruit equal to young
trees. also tried old peach trees at the
same time, which would not answer at that
time but probably if the bark should be
peeled off peach trees when tho second sap
should be at is change, they would produce
the same effect as trees at 3 years ago.
tried all the experiments | could discover
from books on agriculture, and found them
only temporary relief to peach trees l
then dug hole about 8 or 8 feet from few
Young peach trees, to the depth of about 3
feet, to obtain about 10 or - bushels OF
fresh earth, which was piled next to the
trunk of the trees in the form OF Il sugar
loaf. found that those trees on which
tried the experiment, became very luxurl-
ant with large green leaves, and those did
not apply the new earth to were sckly.-
This banking did no: answer for old peach
trees. In the springs Of 1885, | banked
$50 young peach trees that were slckly IN
the same manner, and they are in a pro.
missing state, with luxuriant leaves.

us if our zeal and faith do not keep pace

CALL TO THE MINISTRY.

This may be simply defined as con-
riction of duty. The subject Oft beholds
the world lying in wickedness, sees sinners
carelessly pursuing the road to ruin, and
becomes anxiously DESTROYS Of their sal va
ton. And if to this is added, firm per-
suasion that duty requires him to warn
them OF their danger, and invite them to
the Savior of sinners; and if this impress
sion be such as to create restlessness and
a sense of guilt, when pursuing any or
binary occupation, to the exclusion of the
work of the ministry, it is presumable he
is called to this work. All this is evil
dence, however, only to himself Some
thing further is necessary to satisfy the
church of the reality Of his call, and thus
to open the way for his engaging in the
work. 1t would certainly be dangerous
to the welfare of any church, for her to
giveindiscriminate license for all to preach
who profess to consider it their duty; fol-
some ofthese may be laboring under de-
fusion of their own imaginations, and to.
tally disqualified for the work while 9th
ers may be hypocrites, and fit onl y to be.
come ministers of Satan. Hence, al
churches have some method of proving
those who claimto be called to the minis
try. The evidence that satisfies the Meth
odist Episcopal church of the reality 0
this call is the existence of three marks
viz: grace" "gifs," and fruit" o
7 usefulness. Whether these do or do nc
exist, the church, and those whose prov
ince it is to license him, may to good de
= gree, determine. "And so long as thes
three marks concur in any one, we be
lieve he is called of God to preach" BIZ
r if these are not found, he is not received
is and this circumstance, ifhe is humble an
d considerate, will lead him to concluc
ID either that he has mistaken his calling,
