To Raise GOOseberfieS.

There is "a grea. difficulty in raising
healthy stalks and well ripened gooseber
ries in this country, which, we think, ow.
ing TO 4 want of the requisite humidity in
our summer atmosphere. In damp situa-
tions, as in Scotland and the north Of Eng
land, they are general prolific and healthy.
We lately saw some fine specimens on
Mount Ida, Troy, N. Y, in the garden OF
Mr. Vail. He attributed his success en-
tirely to placing a good coating of salt
marsh hay around the stems This has a
double effect in accumulating moisture, as
both the salt and the hay, in this position,
are efficient agents for the purpose. We
have also seen an immense production of
the fruit Of gooseberries, from placing a
pint of saltpehe about the roots. Ashes
ana plaster have likewise the effect of
greatly increasing humidity, whenever ap-
piled; and each of these we deem good
substitute for salt hay.

Great European Railroad

Lately we Salu SOmetnlng In the GLOBE
about great European-Asiatic railroad,
the construction Of which has been dis
cussed in the London Times. 1t was pro-
posed that it should commence at Calais,
and terminate in Mooltan, in Asia, crossing
rivers and mountains innumerable almost
not crossing exactly either, but going
round or through the last, and crossing
over the first, when not too wide, and
when they are, the road would stop of
course on this side, and begin again on the
other. The whole distance would be be-
tween six and seven thousand miles, and
the cost two or three hundred millions of
dollars.
This was the English project; but a
French jour nal as we see in the Ne,c Dr.
leans Bee, comes out against il and alleges
the road, on the route proposed, TO be al
most impracticable, on account OF the in
tervening mountains, some of which cam
not be got round or over, as the Belkan
for instance, which did not stop the Rus.
slams i'll 1925, but may prove a barrier to
the proposed road, for the reason that there
is no break in the cham that must be pass
led. no other resource left but to tunnel,
and that the tunnels would have to be OF
great length, and would be enormously
expensive This writer proposes that the
road shall be carried through Upper Asia,
from Russia-say Moscow or China
| The distance would be about the same,
probably, but the cost of the road much
less, on account of the more favorable ma
ture of the country, a great deal of which
is almost dead level, and there are no
lofty or impraclicable mountains. The
population, too, he says, (which we be-
lieve, is much better adapted TO the ac-
compllshment of such a work. At the
western end there would be the Russians,
who would do the work for very moderate
pay, as would the Chinese at the eastern
end. This would not be the case, though.
by the southern route, for some of the ma
tions through which it would pass would
not give any very efficient cooperation,
and none of any kind without being well
paid. And this is an obstacle that would
present itself as soon as the road reached
the southern frontier OF christian Europe
and penetrated into Turkey. The Tux

before he will be that far advanced. He

Wheat Bran as n FertiliSer.

This has been tried by several persons
in Delaware with great success. 1t is said
that handful to the hill will double the
corn crop. Care must be taken to cover
the bran, before dropping the corn, or the
fermentation will kill the seed if in direct
contact with the bran. 1t is said to be
equally valuble upon wheat. The matter
is worth experime nting upon.

To give this Nation birth
The happest and the fairest land
or all the peopled earth
Rouse yc, ye patriots OF the North
Treason mid you hath tn hriven--
For trni.or voices have proclaimed
This Union must be riven!"
Rouse ye, We Southern Statesmen rouse.
And lend your power to save
Orr Constitution from its death
And Freedom from its grave!
Oh that some pure Archange!,
Sent down from Heavens bright band,
Would sound the voice of warning. 90

That "God defends the right
And that the wor ds Of warning

Should speed il onward well,
The Empire State mighty shout.
Like her own torrents roar.
