the brothers eye cleaned wildly at the
sight, and gathering the roins tighter around
his hand, he made one last desperate effort
to force the horses onward; and with one
mad leap, they lifted the carriage from the

ed into the fiery furnace, and the next instant
had shot through the pass.
Charnly gave one look backwards, as if
to assure himself that they had indeed es-

TINE FOR BUDDING FRUIT
TREES.

No exact time can DC set for budding, as
much depends on the season, yet some gen.
eral rules may be of advantage TO the mex
perienced. When the season is early, and
very favorable in the first Of the summer to
the growth of trees, they will be in season
for budding at an earlier period than in late
seasons. Dry weather tends to ripen the
wood and check the growth, SO the season
for budding will not continue so long as it
will when the weather is warm and rains are
abundant, winch causes late growth of
trees.
In this climate, Augustus the time for bud
ding cherry, plum, pear, and apple trees
The cherry generally from the 1st to the
lOih or 18th, the plum IA little later, from
the 9th to the 18Th or ooh, the pear and APP
pie from the 10Th TO the Goth or Goth, and
sometimes to the last of the months. In
some seasons the apple continues to grow SO
late that it may be budded the first of Sep
TENDER. The pear should be buddcd lit
Tie earlier than the apple, though nearly at
the same time.
The peach of two years growth may be
buddcd from the middle of August to the
''N"'' VI ~ iIthiDtl VI bHt Ncdi Gio"tH,
from the lsl to the 10Th or 18th Of .;eptem-
her Much depends on the season. Eight
or ten warm days are necessary after SET
ting the buds to cause them to take we'll
Sometimes they succeed when set the 20th,
but when so late We are liable to have cold
nights, which will destroy the buds, or pre-
vent their uniting with the stock. AS the
peach grows rapidly and is gcncray "A short
lived tree, it is best TO bud it the first year,
AS with "A good growth it will be large
enough.
As peaches grow late and are buddcd
late, it is more difficult to fix on the best
time. 1t cannot be done, but is matter of
risk, as we cannot torcsce tie weather II
set early and tho warm weather continues
long, the buds are likely to start the first
season, and in this case they will be- SO ten
der that they will be destroyed hv the cold,
and il set late, cold weather may succeed and
prevent their taking, as it is termed. So
the safest way is to take a medium between
the extremes of early and late.
Buds of all kinds when set too carly will
grow the first season aud ;hs be Liable to
destruction by the cold Some persons bud
IN June, in order that the buds may start
early and get good growth, and the wood
become hardened before cold weather, but
this method is not much prac,iced Far

WHICH THINGS ARE A SHADOW.
1sawa stream whose waves were bright
With mornings daz2ing sheen;
But dazzling clouds, ere fall of night,
Had darkencd DER the sccne:-
How like that tide
My spirit sighed
This life to me hath been!"
The cloud disrersed the glowing west
Was bright with closing day,
And on the rivers peaceful Treas,
Shone forth the sunset ray
My spirit caught
The soothing thought
Thus lie may pass away.
I saw tree viii ripening frui.
Aud shady'fOagc crowned;
But nh an axe was atits root.
And field it to the ground -
Wei might that trco
Recall, 10 me
The doom my hopes had found.
The fro consumed it; butt saw
Its smoke ascend on hight
A shadowy type, beheld with awe,
OF that which cannot die,
But from the grave
Shall rise TO crave
A home beyond the sky!
