Matching Fruit Trees.

FRIEND EDIToR.-l wish to call the attention
OF the public, aud more especially the readers
Of the Ohio Cullvulur, to the following method
Of treating fruit trees:
Downing, in his work on fruits and fruit trees,
describes il thus:
"MULcHNG is M excellent praclicewilh trans.
planted trees, and more especially for those
which are removed late in the spring. Mulch.
ing is nothing more Than covering the ground
about the stems with coarse straw or litter from
the barn yard, which by preventing evaporation,
keeps the soil from becoming dry, and main.
tans il in that moist and equlnbe condition OF
temperature most favorable to the growth OF
young roots. Very many trees, in dry sea,
son. fail at midsummer, after having made Il
fine start, from the parched aud variable condi
tion of the earth about The roots Watering
frequently fails to save such es, but mulch
ing when they are planted will entirely obyialC
the necessity of watering in dry seasons, an,
promote growth under any circumstances. In
deed watering upon the surface. ms commonly
performed, is a most injurious practice, us III,
roofs stimulated aI one period of the day by
water, are only rendered more susceptible t,

Renovation Of an O,d Orchard,

PLANT NONE BUT THE BEsr.-ln looking up
your seeds for spring sowing and planting, be
assured that the expenditure of liule extra
rme and money in securing valuable varieties,
will be amply repaid in the end.
The worst aud most suicidal policy farmer
can adopt, is 10 ''sel the good and SOW the bad"
True, an extra article of wheat, corn, rye or
oats, will find more ready market, and better
price than one that is Of poor quality; yet it is
no less Iruc that by disposing of such, and re.
serving tho latter for purposes of propagation
the succeeding crop will fall below an average

FEARS.
BY MISS PHGBE CARY.

Hold me closer to thy bosom,
Let me feel thy clasping hand;
Wilder grows the night, and drearer--
Shall we never reach the land!
Thrice from dreams of broken Slumber
Have started in alright;
On the shore never trembIsd
AZ trsmble here tonight!
Nay, it's not the haunting beauty
OF some lovely vision gone
But the watches wear so heavy
Leave me, leave me not alone!
Yes, know the waves are culmer,
And the sky has lost ts frOwn,
But the sharp reefs, ere the morning,
We may strike them and go down!
Sadly not that dawn is breaking,
With its grey, uncertain light
Look! dare not trust my vision
Are the cliffs OF home in sight!
Hush! Icannot, listening eager,
Hear the heavy pillows roar;
We are standing in still water
We are nearing to the shore.
Yes, DER us, streaming seaward,
Shine the red lights of the tower;
We aro anchored-we are mooring--
God be praised for such an hour!

Spring Budding of Fruit Trees,

1t may not be generally known that Cruit.,rees
can be budded in the spring as soon as the bark
will slip with ease, with equally as good success
Os those done in the usunl season.
Spring budding possesses some advantages,
inasmuch us one years growth of the bud is
Obtained in advance of those budded in sum,
mcr or fall. ScionS cut the previous fall or
winter nay DO preserved in moss or saw.dusl,
so us 10 perform this operation as late in The sen
son, with safety, as can BE- with the present
years growth Of scions. This is quite con.
vencnce when scions are wanted from dis.
lance, as there is not so much trouble in pre-.
serving them perfectly fresh as when utin the
leul.
The only difference necessary to make be.
twiSt spring and fall budding is. the stock of the
former should be cut off AT the time Of budding,
three or lou inches above the insertion of the
bud, and coat of sheIlac or other cement Op.
piled to the stock TO prevent decay, and for the
health Of the tree. think this should be done
in all cases.-N E. Farmer. d. TABOR.

BY WILLIAM II. CRANsToN.
Is it death is it death that gaze on n W,
With its impress sealed on human brow
Or, have been dreaming beautiful dream
Till fancy is tinged with a heavenly beam2
Is it sleep is it sleep that's caused such re-
To rest on this face so free from lifc's thrces?
Or, have just seen, by a vision above,
An angel of light on its mission love 7
All, no! It's no spell, no dcusion I've had,
lis daughter of earth in hci last shroud
clad
mortal in form, with an angels swcel
smile,
Who loved us, and fingered to please us
awhile.
The caske. that held the bright jewel that's
fed,
The mortal remains of our loved onc-the
dead
The end of our beng-the closing Of strife,
The finishing scene in the drama Of life.
All, toll me no moro Of the terrors Of death,
The phantoms that cling round the vanishing
BREATH
For if this be not JOY unspeakably pure,
I'm bewlldered with doubt, for heaven is mol
sure.
IT'S the face Of an angel, SO gentle and kind
'Tis the presence of God, the invisible mind
The calm placid smile Of spirit At rest,
The embryo beams Of heavens own best.
The wing Of an angel seems bent DER her
now,
To shcker the hue Of her delicate brow,
And her sweet rosy lips are jus, parted with
joy,
To show us she fel, not pang 10 alloy.
Thou angel Of light! thou cherub of heavenl /
God gave, and We render to him what was

May thy smile cheer our hearts round the
terrible throne,
And thy pleading secure cen the rapture Of
