renced much vexation and nconvenience by reason
OF imperfect operation Of the law Of 1885 and ubse
quent alterations and amendments have failed to re-
medy the grievances, and this whole system Is nov
patched up incomplete and uncertain. Nevertheless
that the benefit Of judicial decisions upon important
questions may not be lost they propose to preserve
such parts Of the law Of 1885 experience has proved
to be useful and to add such provisions viii 1t

The BOARD OF SUPERVISORS, AND PARTY PRo-
scRIProN.-The desperate effort made by the
stronger section of the Board of Supervisors, to
displace the Commissioner of Jurors, has at length
succeeded, after three special meetings. 1t has
succeeded, too, IN opposition to the legal opinion
of four judges, pronounced upon the ilegality of
the proceedings. The Board Of Supervisors have
now acknowledged themselves instruments for
political purposes, and though one of their MEM
bers, have avowed that the dismissal Of the COM
missioner asurged to crafty party feelings, rather
than to effect public good.

CuItivating Fruit Trees.

The influence of the cultivation ofthe ground upon

point generally concluded that if the sod is not bro

and little or no fruit This remark is TO be under

lots, or orchards occasionally TO be met WITH which
are so richly imbued with fertilizng of fructfying
matters that there appears necessity of nverting
the sward or of applying more than very limited
animal dressing to ensure The most abundant crops
but orchards in this condition are seldom found and

The planting of orchards to potatoes and other
vegetables, have never regarded as a profitable in
vestment of capital. If the trees shade one-halfthe
surface, you can necessarily expect no more than
hall crop; but you must bestow as much manure
as Is required to produce a full one True. the or

eXpend manure upon one department of the farm to

HARRINGTON CORNER AND PIPER BLOCK.
These spacious and elegant buildings, at the corner
of Main and Front streets, are now nearly COM
pleted, and we express only the undivided opinion of
our citizens when say that they are in the highest
degree credtable to all concerned in their erection
The architect, Mr.. Elbridge Boyden, Of our city,
has, in their design, erected lasting monument of
his skill in his profession, and the builders Messrs
II. N. Tower and Joseph Lowell, Jr, have proved,
by the manner in which they have carried out the
plans Of the architect, and the liberal views of the
propretors, that the mechanics of Worcester cannot
be surpassed in this line of business and that there
no need to import arzlns from abroad TO do that
which our own citizens so competent to perform.
Some of the stores are already occupied Messrs.
bemls o. Harrington have taken store No. 2, in Har-
rlngtons Block, and stocked it with complete as
sortment of Boots, Shoes, and Rubbers, adapted TO
the season.
Messrs. Harrington g. Gleason have removed to
the last store on Front street, in the same block
occupying the site of their old store where they are
already prepared to supply the orders of their former
customers, for butter, cheese, and groceries of all
kinds.
The corner store, which is one of the best stands
for trade in the whole city, will be occupied by
Messrs Luther & Freeland, for the sale of Ready
Made Clothing the two stores now occupied by them.
in Merchants Row, being found loo contracted o
the accommodation of their immense trade.
Another store in the same block, fronting on Main
street, has been rented by S. A. Rowland Bookseller
who has, we Think very wisely determined to remove
his stock of Books, Stationery, and Fancy Goods
little nearer to the centre of travel,
AT No. l, Piper's Block, Messrs. w. G. &J.Q.
Maynard are preparing to display, in few days, one
oil the most extensive assortments of Boots Shoes.
Rubbers, &c. ever offered in the city.
The central situation of these stores, will nj
ways make them desirable locations for trade. and
we cannot doubt that the enterprise which has orna-
mented the city by their erection, will find an ade-
quate reward large dividends upon the cost of con-
struction.
