He hai passed through life of most e.

former days--to some of the surviving chill
dren of these friends, end in their view was

in new army, and to engage in the per-

than ever rcommanded the attention of earth
ly thrones or confederated states. And TO
add, if possible to the impressiveness of the
scene, the partner Of his adopted son, dear
to him, indeed as daughter, together with
beloved niece, were about to seal with him
their covenant, for the first time, to be the
followers of the Prince of Peace. The
whole of the preparatory service was deeply
interesting, but when the time arrived for
him and his relatives, and friends, to arise
and take their seats at the table of their as

sseues of fearful bearing, bending that head
in humble and adoring reverence at the ia :

could question the sincerity of his profess

world acquainted with him, whether friends
or foes, must acknowledge that his lips have
spoken in all his varied difficulties, the
meaning Of his heart, and that hls actions
have always corresponded with his sen'I-

May God bless and uphold him in his
Inst days, and make lhen his most comfort
able and happy days. Aud when the time
for his departure shall arrive may he come
to his grave, not only full of years, but full
of peace, joy and holy triumph.
In all real conversions to God, let US ev-

or power, but by my spirit saith the Lord
To his grace then be all the glory.

A good Experimentation B. Smith,
Of this city, has suggested new method oI
destroying the chrysalis in the cocoons OF
the silk worm, which has all the advanta-
ges of and none Of the disadvantages of
the old plan. 1t is by simply exposing
them to the influence of ignited charc oal.
The Farmer aud Gardener says that an
experiment has been made, which proved
entirely successful, and that there is no
doubt that il will prove a most valuable ac-
QUESTION to silk culturists, as besides being
the most economical method of killing the
chrysais, it will effect its object without
hardening the gum on the cocoons, thus
rendering them much easier to reel.

From the Providence Journal.

DIsGRAcEFUL.-TheN New York Journal
Of Commerce contains an advertisement
signed by % passengers on board tho
steamboat Kingston, giving the particulars
Of "a wanton and reckless disregard Of the
feelings, the comfort aud the lives of his
fellow citizens, manifested by Capt. Dustan,
Of the Cleopatra" The Kingston was on
her regular trip from Hartford to Saybrook
and the Cleopatra from Hartford TO New
York. We quote from the advertisement :
On leaving Harifnd, the Cleopatra was
ahead, and occasioned more than half an
hour unnecessary delay in the arrival AT
Middletowp, by greatly diminishing her
speed and by several stoppages where there
where no landings as if il was desired tina,
the Kingston should pass. On leaving
Middletown, the Kingston started moment
firs,--ihe Cleopatra following with full
head of steam. In the "Styaits," so called,
the Kingston run as close under the south
shore as was compatible with her safety
the bnnk very rocky and precipitous-:he
Cleopatra gaining aud locking about one
third our length, when she suddenly quick
ened her speed and shot directly into the
Kingston her guard, forward of the
wheel-housc, striking us just abaft- the
wheel. 1t was a moment of agitation and
intense alarm. 1t was most clearly appa-
rent TO each and all of us, that the running
in contact was wilful aud premeditaed--
that it was evidently the intention to carry
away the wheel of the Kingston and to
crowd her on shore ;-and il is also known
to some of us that the depth of water was
amply sufficient, more than twice her width
from US, for the Cleopatra to pass. There
were no circumstances which we could dis
cover, that would afford the least excuse or
palIiation for the a,rocious outrage. Du-
RUG the whole time the boats were in con-
tact, the engine of the Cleopatra was in
full operation and after she had shot ahead,
the same delay was wantonly continued f;
the Cleopatra continuing her course with
frequent unnecessary stoppages, and at
much less than her usual speed"
Such conduct as this deserves no mea-
sured apprehension, and we mistake much
if acts like these will rebound to the credit
of the master or the pecuniary benefit OF
the boat.
The Cleopatra is the quickest boat Of the
two, and might easily have taken the lead
and kept it, and we hope, if the story is
correctly told, that this shameful outrage
will not only receive the condemnation o,
the travelling public, but that the owners o
the Kingston will seek pecuniary ndemni-
ty for the damages, which they may be sure
of obtaining.

PoTAToE APPLES. 1t is generally al
lowed by those who have made experiments
upon the subject, that by plucking off the
blossoms of potatoes, the crop will be in
creased thereby equal TO the amount that
would have been produced had tie bios
SONS been allowed to remain and this po-
sition is supported by reason, for it is evil
dent that no injury can arise from the mu-
iilaron of the plant, as only small stems
are removed, and that as the seed is an es-
sental part of plant, and in many cases
The most difficult part to bring to perfection
an important part of the nourishment must
be devoted to il; therefore 1t is not unreal
sonable to suppose that the nutrment nec-
essary for crop of apples would produce
a greater amount Of roots. If privation of
blossoms will increase the amount of pota-
toes equal to a crop of apples, it is an OBJ
lect of great importance to take off the bios
SONS, especially from some kinds which
produce many apples. As we we're gath
ering po,atoe apples for the seeds last fall,
we noticed that some kinds had on an ave-
rage half pint to the hill, when the crop
of potatoes was not more than 200 bushels
to the acre allowing only one gill to hill,
and we have frequently seen large piece
that would average that, and surprising the
hills 10 he three feet apart each way, there
would be 1910 hills to the acre 4S40 gils
of apples would be almost 10 bushels. II
10 bushels Of potatocs could be saved by
pinching off the blossoms, it would pay
more than four times the expense.
Potatoes that are very productive usual
ly yield but few apples, while those that
produce but SIN all crop have an abund-
aucc of apples this is general rule; there
are exceptions, as some kinds produce a
great many apples, while other kinds that
are no more productive yield but few. 1t
seems to be wise provision Of Nature to
produce little or no seed while there is a
good crop of tubers, and as this crop de-
generates, the seed is produced which Of
ters facilities for renewing the kind or pro-
ducing new varieties from it.

Was there ever such a person known

Was there ever such person known as
contented farmer? II so, we have not
been so fortunate as to meet one. There
is always some cause of complaint ;-it is
too cold, or too hot, too wet or too dry, or
too something not exactly as it should be.
Notwithstanding the encouraging accounts
received from all parts of the country of the
immense yield and excellent quality Of the
crops this season, there are some who seem
delighted to indulge in fault finding A
farmer living on high ground, aud cultiva-
ting light soil, finds that his corn is not
quite as green as it might be on account of
the drought, aud straightway falls to croak-
ing about the want Of rain, forgetting all
the while that the snme drought that has
injured the product of his hills, has benefit
ed that of his neIghbor's low lands. Such
is the extent of our territory, and variety OF
its surface, that to have weather suited to
every portion of it is a thing out of the
question. five wish to come at fair gem
eral estimate Of the crops we must strike
an average, and there can be no doubt that
in doing so we shall find the harvest Of the
current year much above the ordinary stan
dard. Should matters turn out in England
as some persons npprehend, VIC may find
ia that country market for our surplus
grain, and thus be enabled to reimburse
ourselves, to some extent at least, the mon.
ey paid for foreign wheat during the two
last vears.-Bdh. 4Rterican.

Iatdmou.-A few days ago, sum Of
money was stolen near kosciusko, Missls-
slppi. A black girl, who professed to know
oil about the circumstances, charged re-
spectacle white person with being the thief.
Upon her testimony the citizens seized him,
tied him to tree, and "lynched" him
with extreme severity. During the opera
ton man named Parker stood looking on
and exclaiming-" Give it to him He
has the money lie is the thief and will
soon confess it" The lynchers found,
however, after nearly killing their victim,
that he would confess nothing, aud he was
released, torn, bleeding, aud unable to
stand. A few hours afterwards suspicion
began to rest on Parker himself, who, on
being tied tn the same tree, roared out,
haze The money" The whole sum was
found in bis pusssssion aud that oi the
wench on whose false testimony the lnno-
