which presents the appearance for some dis.
lance Of having sunk several feet below the
original surface. The volume of water Ina,
issues from il is not so great as one would sun
pose without examining the stream as il ruhs
on. lhis deception originates in the parox-
ysms OF the spring, which casts up huge bib.

Massachusetts Figs.

Ihe Boston Transcript, in an interesting ar.
tlcle on The subject Of horticulture, in descrip-
tion OF the garden, greenhouse, and varieties
OF fruit, of Mr. Allen, Of Salem, whose sue
cessful devotion to Horticultural pursuit., i.
well known, says:
Mr. Allen has fig tree lla. is curiosity
Ii fills the entire back wall of one of hi. bou
ses. and is trained in the same way as peach,
the branches stretching right and left from The
trunk some 80 or 40 feet, and is very vigorous
This variety is The black fig of 81. Michael.
/. is now in fruit with the third crop for the
season. Upwards of 5000 figs, by count, have
been gathered the presen, season, and i. is
slill yielding i.s delicious fruit in abundance
When fully ripe, this fig bursts with its ewn
richness. The frui. is fine, and good variety
for forcing. There are several other varieties
OF figs growing in the house, but none so pro.
hfic as the ST. Michael.
"The growing Of fruit under glass is quite
extensive in Massachusetts, and vas, amour,
of wealth is invested in this delightful branch
of industry. There is probably more fruit
growing in Massachusetts than in all the other
States OF the Union, and there is a ready de-
mand for all that is grown. Our eul,ivators fre.
quen,ly have orders from the South and the
West Indies for grapes, which command high
price. No grower has been more successful
than Mr.. Allen. and his establishment is such.
al the present time, as to yield him handsome
return Tor his labors"

Like an Open, Honest Heart.
ike an open, honest heart,
Where frankness loves to dwell,
Which has no place for base deceit,
Nor hollow words can tell
Bot in whose throbbing plain are seen,
The import OF the mind,
Whose gentle breathings utter nought,
But accents true and kind.
Iscorn the one whose empty acts,
And honied words Of art
Betray the feelings Of The soul,
With perhdy's keen dart;
No more kind friends in such confide,
Nor in their kindness trust,
For black ingratitude but turns,
Pure friendship to disgust.
Contempt is but gentle word,
A feeling far too mild,
For one who confidence betrays,
And guilt has sore beguil'd;
That hate which hellish iends evince,
When in dark torments toss'd,
Is not more loathsome to the soul,
Than one to honor lost.
Then give me one with heart as free,
And gen'rous as the air,
Whose ready hand and greeting kind,
Give proof that truth is there;
Whose smiling countenance well shows,
Affection warm is found,
And spirits pure as Saints, whose notes,
Through heaveans' vaults resound.

We have felt it our duty to allude to
these inventions and devices OF the enc
my, because we are deeply sensible OF the
importance of maintaining the Who as
tendency in the State of New York. We
desire to see no reverse to disturb the
prestige Of the Wing position IN that pow
erful and important State. We wish to
see arrested, at the start, the movement
for restoring political power in that State
to the united cabals of Richmond and Al
bany; that corrupt and shameless comb
nation, by which the government of the
country has been monopolized for the last
four and twenty years previous to the
accession of President TAYLOR. We do
not desire to see the first step successful
in the reunion, to the end OF delivering
up the treasury of the United States to be
plundered, after the fashion of 1886 and
1S4S, and OF delivering up the Gov
eminent Of the United States to the alb
surd political measures of the Richmond
junto, and the rigid party machinery of
the Albany regency. In this point Of
view, we regard the approaching election
in New York as one Of paramount import
ance, and look anxiously for that cordial
union and cooperation of all the WIGS
in every section OF the State 10 maintain
the integrity Of the party, and to secure
the triumphant success of all the State
nominations.

Honesty IL the best Policy.

1t is evident, from the continued silence
of the Union on the subject Of the Poussin
difficulty, that il sees the injustice and alb
surdity OF the course which it has pursued
in that matter in its zeal to defend it's ''for-
eign relations" Yet it has not the hon
esty to acknowledge its error, and permits
its gross imputations against Commander
Carpenter to remain unretracted.
One of the "vigprous writers" of the
Union spoke approvingly, the other day,
Of "that simple but noble maxim, Honesty
is the best policy" This was queer use
OF adiectives, even for the Union; be-
cause the maxim in question, though sim
pie enough, cannot properly be designa-
ted as "noble." One might as well talk
about shat noble maxim, II pin day IS
a groat year." We will not, however,
quarrel with the UniDn upon this point, if
it will only profit by It's own recommends
tons. 1t is undoubtedly true that honesty
is the best policy; and if the Union can
not be induced to be honest from any
nobler consideration, we trust that the
recollection of this maxim will not be
without avail.
