PEACH TREEs.-The following is from the
Delaware Farmer, printed nearly forty years ago,
and wish TO enquire whether any Of your rea-
ders have tried either method, and if SO, with
what success.
A gentleman in Pennsylvania took the fol-
owing method to preserve his peach tree. from be
ing injured by worms. ca terpiliars, tNc He took
away the gum that issues out OF the treo affected
by the worm, strswed little brimsto round
the root, and covered it with Enc mould tina, it
might not blow away, yet SO that the sun might
operate through ii, and cause the birthstone TO
fumigate, which destroyed the worms. One
pound Of birthstone is sufficient, for near two hun
bred trees.
.sThe writer has lately heard that an accident
has discovered remedy against the Peach Des-
troycr. A poor woman who had cultivated some
handsome peach trees in her little garden, which
she rented, being forced to go out bv her land
lord, designing to deprive him Of her fruit trees.
she took kettle of boiling water. and poured the
contents at the root of each, with view TO kill
the treesby scalding, but instead of scalding the
trees she scaided the worms and the trees thrive"
Zone Of our neighhors keep. his peach trees in
fne order, BY following the suggestion in the lat
ter part of tha above article. Whenever he dis
covers guns1sung from the tree, he applies hot
water. and finds it an effectual remedy for the
worms. When the application is TO be made the

beneath the place, made little dishlng so AZ 10

PRESCRIPTION,

The federal papers think Mr. Granger remarka-
bly, moderate in his guillotino operations, he hav-
ing removed only about 60 poslmasters in this
State.
Let US see. The administration has been in
operation l27 days, Sundays included. There are
PC states. Surprising the knife to cut as smooth
in other States as it does here, (for it is believed
that federal office seekers are the same ravenous
set every where,) and there have been 1860 post
office removals in l27 days, If Mr. Granger had
set Immediately about it and have done nothing
else, one would think his task laborious to have
Disseminated between the million applicants and
strike down his victims II day-about one to
every half hour that he is supposed to labor.
This is doing pretty smart business for those
who coaxed votes out of the people by procldiming
themselves opposed TO prescription!

TO THE DEMOCRACY.

We think there is no democrat who sustained
the republican ticket last fall who does not now
rejoice that he was not then, driven from his prin-
ciples, by the threats or enlreaties or alsehoods
of federalism, The events of 1871 are constantly
adding to the popularity of the democratic cause,
and heaping up shame upon the heads of those par
ty leaders who, last year, shouted change for the
sake of CHANGE" ndsnbused the peoples conf
dence with empty promises of reform
In either the nation or the state, what has feder-
alism accomplished since its accession to power,
which entities it to the continued support of the
community Nothing Nothing Its whole his
tory, from the commencement of lis new reign, is
a history of violated pledges, broken promises and
reckless tyranny, and even its old followers turn
away from its recent conduct with disgust and
ioathing,
In the General Government it has hunted ac-
cording TO good authority, ONE President from en-
istence, by an application Of the "spols SYSTEM
unheard of before, and is now pressing a second
Chief Magistrate, not only for MORE OFFICE, but
to drive him, also, into some important violations
Of the constitution of his country.
1t has called an extra session, ut enormous en-
pense, when such session was wholly unnecessu-
ry, and is employing it, not for public purposes,
bnt in order to make political capital for trading
politicians.
1t has violated n sacred contract in Congress with
the public printers, in order to pension one of s
own pressee, and has shown an equal disregard OF
justice and proprety, in beslowng its other offices
in large number of instances upon men Of noto-
riOusly worthless character.
1t has sacrificed the honor ofthc Republic at the
feet of England, in u manner most humiliatng, in
The case of Mcl.eod, and has substantially admitted
aray the right, of our State sovereign,les to main
tain their own criminal uri'diction upon their owr
coils.
We have not room TO extend the catalogue =
But for picture of federalism it is, we refer ou
readers to the late proceedings in Congress- Let
them look to Washington They will there see
the men that, but little time ago, unned TO hunt
an honest Administration from power, now quar-
relling and fighting among themselves, about the

Al Tampico business was dull, and an opinion
prevailed that affairs could not remain long in the
wretched condition that they were without conf

but no one could predict the manner it was to be
effected.
AT Vera Cruz affairs were the same,
There was a revolt among the tobacco manu-
facturers and growers in Orizava, and regiment
of troops sent against the insurgents. The Mexi-
