Mexicans On the point of leav-
ing my beloved native country, in or

of private life, l must address you for
the last time, to explain to you the true
causes which have constrained me to
condemn myself 10 voluntary ostra-
cism. Far from me, in this solemn
moment, is the idea of re-opening the
wounds which have been inflicted up
on our country by the strife of parties,
which, by their continued agitation,
have brought us into our actual posi-
ton. A noble object urges me to pen
these lines, free from vanity or f1attery.

in the most disastrous moments in
which ever nation was seen, and when
foreign hands are tearing The insignia
of our sovereignty from the immense
territory which cowardlce, egotism and
perdfy have placed in their power
In plain language, without any attempt
at oratorical display, l will place be-
fore you facts, though very summarily.
You have been witnesses of the
course which | have pursued since the
solemn proclamation of August. 1916,
restored me to my country, bringing
me forth from the place to which the
enmity and rancor of factions had ban
ished me. The capital Of the nation,
and the towns on the route from Vera

that, at that time, homage and honors
were paid to me by men of all classes,
by which my gratitude was more and
more excited towards nation which a.

Heaven is my witness that when this
passed around me, / addressed my
prayers to the Eternal for the happi-
ness and glory of the Mexican nation.

SPRING by DOW, JR.

Why, my friends, Spring can start
fresh and vigorous plants from the os-
tensibly barren soil Of an ovey-tilled
mind-twine a lowery wreath Of hope
round the pale brow of Despair-give
strength, new life and activity TO the
pinions Of trost-bi,ten Fancy, and make
an old man feel as if the hour hand to
the clock of existence had been set
back one quarter, at least, Of its little
circle. In fact, Spring can co almost
anything in the way Of favoring poor
humanity, except dyeing gray hairs in
the whiskers of an old bachelor, taking
out the superfuous curls and mortify-
ing wrinkles of an elderly maiden, trans.
mographying decrepid Age into buoy
ant Youth, and mending our old shoes.
My hearers-while you behold sweet
Spring waving her magic wand, and
awakening dull earth into life, pristine
beauty and loneliness, you cannot but
hope that you will vegetate for another
year-that new flowers will start up
along the pathway oflife-ard that all
your prospects will be crowned with
success, even as the blossoms prom
Use put forth by May are fulfilled by
the golden fruits of Autumn. And you
also behold general resurrection of
bugs and every thing around you; you
may 60 toyour mortal beds at last in
full confidence that after having taken
short nap in the cold wintry grave,
you will start up and flourish again,
like pig-weeds in unmolested gardens

THE NUTMEG.

1t is fact which ought to be known
to all housewives, that ifthey begin to
CRATE a nutmeg at the stalk end, it will
prove hollow throughout; whereas the
same nutmeg grated from the other
end, would have proved sound and SOL
id to the last. The centre of nut
meg, consists of number of 6bres is
suing from the stock and its continual
ton, through the centre of the fruit,
the other ends Of which 6bres, though
closely surrounded and pressed by the
fruit, do not adhere to it. When the
stalk is grated away, those 6bres Aav-
ing lost their hold, gradually drop out,
and the nutmeg appears hollow; and as
more of the stalk is grated away, others
drop out in succession, and the hollow
continues through the whole nut. By
beginning at the contrary end, the f.
bres above mentioned are grated off al
their core end, with the surrounding
fruit, and do not drop out or cause a
hole. Another circumstance worth
knowing, is, that in consequence Of the
great value ofthe oil of nutmeg, it is
often extracted from the nuts that are
exposed for sale, by which they arc
rendered ofvery little value. To as
certain the quality Of nutmegs, force a
pin into them, and, if good, however
dry they may appear, the oil will be
seen oozing out all round the pin, from
the compression occasioned in the sur
rounding parts.

EXTRAORDINARY FEATs OF A TAME
POLAR BEAR.

|
POLAR BEAR. ~
At Church hill, whaling party shot
a bear and one of her cubs; the other
cub they took alive in the boat, and
brought him to the Factory, and being
very young, became quite time. AT
first he had to be carefully protected
from the dogs, but by the time he was
two months old, he was match for any
ofthem: and, being something of a pu-
gilist, the blows Of his fore paws taught
them to keep their distance. Thus
Bruin continued to grow, and his ma
ny tricks made him favorite, especi-
ally with the sailors, who often wres-
tied with him. In the severity of win
ter, when spruce beer could not be
kept from freezing, each mess Of four
men had full quart Of molasses in lieu
of beer. Bruin was fond of beer and
grog; used, every Saturday to accompa-
ny the men to the stewards shed, and,
when the weekly rations were given
out, the steward gave him some on
one ofhis fore paws, which was soon
cleanedinte his mouth. On one Of
these days, the steward and bruin
qua:relled, and as punishment, bruin
got no molasses. He sat very quietly
at the door, while the steward was put
ting all in order, and seeing him ready
to shut the door, made a dash at the
hogshead Of molasses, and thrusting
his head and neck to the shoulders into
the half frozen molasses, to the utter
amazement Of the steward, carried off
a large gallon on his shaggy hair. He
walked to the end ofthe yard, sat down
on his rump, and then, first one paw,
then with the other, he brought the
molasses into his mouth, until he had
cleaned that part of his coat, smacking
his tongue most delicioasly. Whatev-
err quarrels bruin and the steward had
afterwards, the latter always took care
TO give the former his share of molasses.
Every Saturday night, the sailors had
their allowance of rum, and bruin was
sure to find his way into the guard
room. One night he had tasted some
grog from some of them; he came to a
sailor accustomed to wrestle with him,
who was drinking too freely, and bruin
was so literally treated, that he got
drunk. With one of his fore paws, he
knocked the sailor, and took posses
sion of his bed. At fisticufs, the sail
was sure to be beaten; and, being de-
determined to get possession oil his bed,
he shot bruln-a sad effect of intemper-
ance. -Montreal Gazette.

A HARD CASE.

The Boston Saturday Rambler tells
the following good one:-A poor, but
jolly weaver, in this city, not many
years ago, had fortune left him by a
distant and wealthy relative, who went
"of the handle" in England, rather
Unexpectedly. Whenthe news came
to the poor fellow, as he sat clicket-te-
claclet at his loom, he stopped, stock
still, and exclaimed
swell, now, | suppose l must spend
the money straight"
The fortune, some twenty ode thou
sand dollars, was duly realized and du-
ly spent. For, two riefyears did the
job, and he returned to his loom as poor
as church mouse, but merry as criek-
ct, and worked away again for his dali
ly bread, perfectly satisfied with the
"good time" he had had, while his for
tune lasted. His friends called him
green, but he laughed at :heir gibes,
and worked the harder. In twelve
months time, offpopped another rich
relative, and the news, pos, haste, came
to the jolly weaver, that he was again
the possessor of handsome fortune
Stopping his loom, and looking sor-
rowfully at the letter, he despondingly
said
"Good gracious! is it possible that l
must go through all that again!'
In New Orleans, a man is compelled
to treat his wife with proper respect
to use no offensive language to her,and
to behave in all respects as good and
affectionate chubby" should behave to
his better half. A few days since, a
married man was arrested there and
committed to prison, charged by his
wife with using'sindecent and improper
language" to her. Served him right.

TRIMMING TREES.


Many trim their fruit treess early,
because they have more leisure than in
May and June. But early trimming
is not good, as the wounds never heal
so soon as when the trees are growing.
A great error is committed by trim
ming excessively. 1t is better to trim
little each year, than to wait for a
good growth Of irewood before trim
ming. A good genera! rule is, never
to cut limbs that will not be likely to
heal over in two years. One inch and
halfin diameter is as large as any
limb out to grow in case it is not to re-
main permanently on the tree.
In regard to young trees just trans
planted, there is aprevalent notion that
as much of the top should be Topped
as was Topped from the roots on taking
up the tree. But this is no rule to 60
vern in such cases. A small top can
have but small growth, for wood is
made in summer in proportion to the
amount of healthy leaves born by the
tree. The sap is elaborated through
the leaves and made into sap wood, or
alburnum. A few leaves cannot elab-
crate much sap, and many young STAN
darGs suffer for the want of leaves.
We have often seen grown men strip
off all the leaves that were on the
trunks ofyoung trees in the nursery
You can hardly injure young trees
more than by thus robbing them Of their
leaves. Limbs might be cut to form
good top; leaves are neve: injurious,
but are all needful to set the sap in mo-
tion.-Massachusetts Ploughman.

ner during the revolutionary war

ANECDOTE WITH A MORAL.

The last of the .Mohegans. The
Mohegans were an excellent Tribe of
Indians, who lived about Norwich, c..
They had a long line Of kings in the
family Of Uncas. One of the last was
Zachary; but he was great drunkard
But sense Of the dignity of his Office
came over him, and he resolved that he
would drink no more JUS. before the
annual election, he was accustomed to
60 every year to Lebanon, and dine
with his brother Governor, :he frs,
Gov. Trumbull. One Of the Cover
nor's boys had heard old Zachary's
story, and thought he would try him,
aud see if he would stick 10 his
cold water So at table he said to the
chief :--"Zachary, this beer is excel
lent; will you taste III"
The old man dropped his knife,
leaned forward with stern intensity of
expression, his black eye sparkling with
Indignation, was fixed upon him:
John, said he, ''you do not know what
you are doing. You are serving the
devil, boy! tellyou that | am an In
dian! tell you that am; and that if
l should but taste your beer, l could
not stop until got to ruin, and be-
come again the drunken, contempt
bic wretch your father remembers me
to have been. John, while you live,
never tempt man to break a good
resolution.
This story the venerable Col. Trum-
bull! tells Of himself. Let all our rea-
ders remember it, and never temp. a
man to break good resolution.

Seldom can experience help one who

mayest distinguish its looks, and sieze
