Chinese Method of PrOltagatinE
Fruit Trees.

Take about two quarts of moist earth
and tie it around the limb which yQr
wish to make new tree of, by means
of a piece Of old cloth, or any thing else
that will keep in place. Let il renlalp
several months, tIl the earth becomes
full ofsmaILroets. Then cut of the link
Just below the parcel of earth, and setri.
in the ground. The small roots soQr
become large ones, and the limb spec.
diy forms a productive tree. If the
earth be put on good limb in dpyilst
would probably be fit 10 plant in No
vember; though | cannot say itwout
not require another year. This meihof
may, in many cases. be better thar

the sprouts that run up.irom them, az
any, other method in use among us fQF

choice kinds Of apples, or Other fruits.

Irish Cunning.

unteer in Nictorla's service, finding a canoe
upon the beach, near Maiden got into it, and
started on voyage of discovery. When he
mad got some distance from shore, he was dis
covered by the officer ofithe day, who ordered
six men in boat and gave chase. He pur-
sued the voyager to the American shore, and
in his ardor he forgot that he was out of the
British territory, and, d,sefGed the deserter. A
citizen told the maake was free, and need not

TOWN MEETINGS.

The meeting in this town TO vote upon
the Constitution, was organized by the
appointment of Henry Y. Cranston, Esq,
Moderator, on Monday morning at 9
o'clock.
At a o'clock, this "wednesday after
noon, the votes stood as follows -
TO adopt, 59l
70 reject, none
TO insert the word "whte," l89
Not TO insert, 3Oo
By the Providence Journal, the votes
at the close of the Polls on Tuesday
evening, were for the Constitution ,236
against it, 3-to admit blacks, 1881
against blacks, 65.
The votes in the State, owing TO the
entire absence Of excitement, from the
quiet State Of the suffrage party, which
takes no par, in voting for the cohstiiu
tion--will consequently be smaller thar
il otherwise would.-The dollar tax a
this time, will undoubtedly operate tt
prevent great many from voting wh'
are friendly TO the adoption Of the Con
stitutiop.
