The girl knew, as if intuitively, that her

moved not-spoke not-til the form she
loved was taken away to be let down in

PLANTING FRUIT TREEs.-It will be
found upon experiment, that a wound
made on tree in March or April, will
look black as soon as the sap begins to
flow, and that the sap will ooze out unit!
the leaves have put out so as to receive
it; while wound made in June, will re-
main white, and Immediately commence
healing. And tree that has been broken
by being loaded with flun, or otherwise,
while the tree is green with foliage, the
wound will look white, and The wood re-
main sound; while one broken in the VIM
ter by snow, or from other cause, will look
black and decline 10 decay.
II has been my humble lot to spend the
most of my time in the spring and fore
part OF the summer in ENGRAVING anc prun-
ing fruit trees, and my experience goes TO
prove that the best lime for pruning is
when the leaves are full grown, aHl tho
tree is in vigorous and growing state.
or at this season, when the sap has been
spent in the foliage, and the pores OF tho
wood are filled, so that when the limb is
taken OIL, the sun and warm weather will
dry the end of the limb and close the
pores of the wood against the weather,
the sap will keep the limb alive TO the
very end, and the healing will be per-
celvcd imncdiatcly.-Bostoa CuAiUator.

TO PRESERVE FLOWERS FRESH.

Procure fiat dish of porcelain, into
which pour water; place vase Of flow
ers; over the vase place bsl-grass with
its rim in the water. This is similar to
a "Watds's ease" in principle, although
different in construction. The air that
surrounds the flower being confined be-
meath the bell grass, is constantly moist
with water that rises into it in the form of
vapor. As fast as the water becomes con-
densed, it runs down the sides Of the
bell-grass into the dish; and, if means be
taken to enclose the water on the outside
OF the bell-grass, so as to prevent it eva

the atmosphere around the flowers will

n TOUCHING SKETCH OF Pa
Rental SORROW.

A few months ago buried my edcs,
son, fine manly boy Of eight years Of
age, who had never had days illness I'M.
til that which took him hence to be here
no more. His death occurred under cir
cumsances peculiarly painful to me. A
younger brother, the next in age to him,
a delicate, sickly child from badly, had
been down for nearly fortnight with an
epidemic lever.--ln consequence of the
nature of the disease, used every pre-
caution which prudence suggested 20
guard the other members of my family
against it,-But of this one, my eldest, |
had but little fear; he was so rugged and
so generally healthy. Still, however, !
kept a vigilani eye upon him, and cspcci-
ally forbade his going into the pools and
docks near his school, which he was
prone to visit.
One evening came home wearied with
long days hard labour, and ,exed at
some little disappoinlmens, and found
that he also had just come INTO the house,
aud that he was wet, ard covered with
dock mud. taxed him with dsobcdi-
ence, and scolded him severcly-more so
than had ever done before; and then
harshly ordered him to his bed. He open
cd his lips for an exculpaiory reply as !
supposed, but | sternly checked him;
when, with mute, sorrowiul coun!e-
nance, and swelling breast, he turned
away and went slowly to his chamber
Ny heart smote me even at the moment,
though felt conscious of doing la'h-
er's duty. But how much kecner felt
the pang when | was informed, in the
course of the evening, by neighb our, that
my boy had gone to the dock at the earns
est solicitation of a younger and lavourile
playmate, and by the special permission
OF his school master, in ORDER to recover
a cap belonging to the former, which had
blown over the wharf Thus | learned
that what ! had treated with unwonted
severity as fault, was but the impulse
Of generous nature which, forgetlul of
sell, had hazarded perhaps life for anoth-
err. 1t was but the quick prompting of
that manly spirit which had always en-
deaVoured TO engratt upon his susceptible
mind, and which young as it was, had al
ready manifested itself on more than one
occasion.
How bitterly now did regret my
harshness, and resolve to make amends to
his grieved spirit in the morning. Alas!
that morning never came to him i'll health
Before retiring for the night, however,
| crcpt to his low cot, aud bent over him.
The next Gay he awoke with raging
fever on his brain, aud in forty eight hours
was no more! He did not know me

nor at any moment afterwards, though in
silent agony bent over him until death
and darkness closed the scene. would

kind word in his car, and have been an

indeed, smile, thought Of recognition,

MORNING. Nv SPRING.

How sweet the landscape! Morning twincs
Her trcsses round the brow Of Day,
And bright mists DER the forest pines,
Like happy spirits, float away
To revcl on the mountains crown,
WI G C" the glad stream comes shouting down
Through woods and rocks, that hand on high,
Like clouds against the deep blue sky.
The woven sounds OF bird and stream,
Are falling beautiful and deep
Upon the spirit, like dream
Ofmusic OH the hour Of sleep.
And gently from the dewy bowers,
Sot, murmurs, like the breath of flowers,
Are winding through the purple grove,
And blending with the notes Of Love.
The streams in veins of silver flow
The sunrise gale DER flower and tree
o lightly lreathes, il scarce would blow
A fairy bark upon the sea-
1t comes so fresh, so calm, so sweet,
1t draws the heart from its retreat,
10 ninglc with the glurics, burn
In the first holy light ol morn.
\ c'oud is IN tic sky above
And calmly "'cr the young years b.u,,
lis coming Ike a thing Of love
To gladden. il the rising dew
Its White waves IN the sunlight blend,
And gentle spirits seem TO bend
From lis unrol!i,g folds, 10 hear
The glad sounds from our Joyous sphere.
The Lake unrulled by the breeze;
Smiles in is deep, unhroken rest,
As ii were dreaming Of the trees
An blossoms pictured on its breast
Its depths glowing bright and fair,
And t ie far skies seem followed there,
Soil rembling-us they felt the thrill
Ofinusic echoed from tia hill.
Tie living soul Of beauty Fl lis
The air with glorious visions--bright
Tney lmg,r round the sunny hills
And wander i'll the clear blue light
Off TO the breathing Heavens they 20,
Along the earth they live and glow,
Shed DER the Lake the happy smiles,
And bcchon TO lis glittering isles.
Oh at this hour when air and earth
Are gushing JOY, anC love, and light,
And songs Of gladness hail the birth
OF all that's beautiful and bright
Each heart beats higl-each thought is blown
! To fl nne-thc spirll drinks the tone
| Of brighter worlds, and aelts away
In v.suns Of eternal day.
