AN AD11Ss s1.SS,
TO TIE POLITICAL PARTIES OF
CECIL COUNTY.
Fell0,c- Citi=cns:

In laying this address
before you we hope we will not be con-
siLered obtruslve. When cause has
been fully and fairly tested, and has plain
ly demonstrated that it Is calculated 10
improve the moral and social condition
OF mankind, and the best interests Of the
country at large, it then becomes the du-
ty ol every good citizens to stand forth in
and and support OF such cause. Before
pI oceedng farther in discharge of the du-
ly conferred upon us by the convention,
(namely. ITO define our position as
temperance community and IL remons-
tate with our fellow cilizens Of all poll
lcal parties against the practice of using
ardent spirits Tor eleclioneering purpo-
ses," we respectfully ask of all into
whose hands this address may fail, care
full and candid perusal. In no age of the
world has it ever happened that reior-
nation, whether moral, political or reli-
gious. has beeA attempted, without having
~ encounter opposuon. About twenty
years since litlIe band of patriots and
phllanthrophists, viewing with sorrow the
evils and miserles that incompetence was
spreading over our lane, slept forth to
check the desolatng currenL-surroun-
,ed by enemies and meeting on every
hand with discouragement>, they nobly
perscvcred, victory after victory was "a
chicved; and as the cause progressed, it
Increased in the rapidly OF IT'S growth
until now, Temperance Las unlurled her
spotess banner i'll every pat Of our fair
republic, and all ages and conditions of
mankind are gathering around it. Though
many hlndrances have been removed
some yet exist, to one Of these it becomes
our duty to call the attention of our fell
low citizens, londly believing that the
righteousness of our appeal will entlle it
to the respectful consideration of all. In
mentioning temperance in connection with
politics we are we'll aware that the enc
mics Of the cause will at once cry out that
We are attempting to convert the temper
ance cause into political machine, or
perhaps endeavouring to form political
temperance party. Upon this point none
need lear.
Such result is not only impractcable,
but the attempt would he fro ught with
danger to our cause. We feel too deeply

aroused, the consumer is pressed upon
him, he drinks, and all past experience
has shown, that when he once tastes this
mocker he looses all self control, presses
the vampire to his heart and sinks again
into the lowest depths of degradation and
want. Hope that for a time was kndled
IN the bosoms Of wife or mother dies,
and leaves her more desolate than before.
There has of late arisen in this fair re-
public an arbiter that men are compelled
to respect, this is public opinion, no case
is beyond its jurisdiction, from its decsi
sion, there is no appeal. The time is
fast approaching when it will decide the
point we are now discussing. I he advo-
Gates Of this measure are constantly and
rapidly increasing, from statistics in pos
session of the convention, it appears that
nearly four thousand of our fellow citi-
zens of this county have identified them
selves with this great reformation. We
assume no mepacing attitude, we breathe
no threats, our spirit is that of love, our
hope, in the business of our cause, and
the virtue Of the people, but it needs no
prophet to foresee, that the time is near at
hand when voice will speak on this
matter that will be heard. As friends of
our respective parties, we will stand firm
in the support of our principles, but as
friends of mankind we mourn to witness
assemblages, where Bacchus presides,and
where debauchery is the order OF the day.
We presume not to dictate to parties, but
we appeal, respectfully earnestly ap-
peal, v our fellow citizens Of all political
parties, to discountenance and utterly
abolish so pernicious custom. Every
con sderatlon, peace, virtue, happiness,
prosperty-yea, life is on this side of the
question. One consideration alone is
sufficient to cause all to discountenance
this evil. He who controls the deslinies
of nations and lengthens out the days Of
mans existence, has spoken to us against
it. "Wo unto him that giveth his neigh
bour drunk, that puttest the bottle to him
anG makesl him drunken also" Such is
the language of Holy writ, and he who
disregards it will learn that ''the way of
the transgressor Is hard"
The star Of intemperance has past its
meridian height and is fast nearing the
horizon; the day has now fully and bright
ly dawned, in which the application of
moral truth to the process of'political re-
generation is no longer to be laughed at
as dream. Weigh well this truth, add
brave not the proud spirit of the people.
In your primary meetings, and in your
political conventions, speak out against
this custom. We call upon all Of our
fellow citizens, for all are alike interested.
And in split Of love, dove for our
country and for mankind) we besccch
you to join us in cur efforts, and cease
not until the Pureand invigorating streams
of COLD WATER shall have washed
away every ves'ige of ntsmperance.

AGRICULTURAL.
PeGCh Trees.

My grandfather, Ralph Voorhees,, of
this town. has long been most SUCCESS
full culsivator of peach and plum trees;
and from information derived from him, I
select for publication few hints, togeth-
er with some particulars obtained from
other sources.
Peach stones should be buried in the
fall, in dry ground; cover them slightly;
freezing is no injury. In the spring dig
them up, crack them, but leave the pits
within the shells, as this is most accord
ing to nature, and so plant them. If the
stones are not cracked when planted,
they may not vegetate until the second
year; and, indeed, my informant has
known them in one instance, to lie half
dozen years before coming up.
July, though good time for inocuIat-
ing plum trees, is too early for the peach.
If peach trees are inoc dated in this month,
every rain cause the wound to send forth
a quantity ofgum, which becomes hard,
and is ,lurtful to the buds. This evil will
be diminished, if the operation is deferred
until August, or, what is still better, the
early part of September. Set the buds on
the north side of the tree; the sun will
not be so likely to dry them up.
Peach trees in this region, are much
infested by ants. These insects gnaw the
bark, producinga flow of gum; they also
gather upon the leaves, cause them TO
curl up, and turn yellow. thereby hurting
the growth of the tree. should like to
hear whether the same plague exists else
where.
Urine, thrown frequently around the
b 'dIes and roots of the trees, is pow
erful stimulant to their growth, and pre-
serves them IN great measure from the
worm. Mr.. VOORHEES, treated his trees
in this manner last year, ard among the
whole number, consisting of about fifty,
but one worm vas detected during the
season; nor wei The ants so troublesome
as formerly. Sane persons cover the
base of the tree with tar, and no doubt it
is serviceable against both worms and
ants, believe the ravages of the worm
may be prevented in variety of ways,
without resorting to the plan RECOMMEND
~" AZ ieesht PoPels3 vi SettihS FeIHilluSe
plants, as tansy or NORWOOD, around the
trees 1t is worthy of inquiry, whether
NORWOOD used for this pur ,se, would
not be highly preiudicia' to IL growth
OF the tree, as this plo." Ned for its
power of draining the >oIl %! its potash,
an ingredient exceeding useful to fertility.
II is better to keep the earth for some dis
lance around the trunk, clear of weeds,
grass, and all living plants; and when
young trees are set out, the ground should
be kept under cultivation several years
afterwards; for which purpose, one of
the crops best adapted is potatoes.

THE YANKEE BALL,
A TALE OF THE AMERICAN RE.
VOLUTION.

Holmes Hole is harbor we'll known
to all navigators of the coast of New Eng
land. During the year 1881, while the
hopes and fears of the American patriots
were alternating, half dozen British fri
gates were lying snug in the Holmes
hole harbor. Time hung heavilyon the
hands of the officers on board these YES
sells, and they availed themselves of eve
ry opportunity Of breaking in upon its te-
dium
The project of ball on shore was got
up, and the hearts of the British officers
bounded merrily at the prospect of the
pleasure in store for them.
The Yankee girls, although not remar-
kably disposed to smile on British uni
form, were nevertheless not averse to in
dulging in little Irritation with those who
wore the red coats. Ladies ware the
bump of Irritation on their head the world
over, and it is therefore not to be WON
dered that the girls in the neighborhood
of Holmes Hole were willing to have a
few hours qualification at the expense of
the enemies of their country To bring
the lion hearts of these officers TO terms
of equalization, was an object not to be
resisted, and accordingly these damses
arrayed themselves in their bright smiles,
and repaired 20 the festive hall at the time
appointed.
Brilliantly shone every thing on that
evening. The officers were there forget
full Of the Grand Of hutchery on which
they were come to the country, and in
tent Only on winning honeyed looks and
and love-llt smiles from the breathing
forms around them. The dance went
on, and. as fair and sylph-like forms
wreathed through the mazes, the proud
Brlons forgot their sweet-hearts at home
and yielded up their devotions to the fair
strangers before shem. Swiftly flew the
winged hours away, and the solemn
chime of midnight swelled the air before
the sounds of music ceased, and the par
ties separated, with TIE promise Of many
such meetings in future.
1t was too late to return to the ships
that night. and the gallant officers, after
discoursing on the comparative merits of
the beauties by whom they had been en-
