81 may be excused from mention
ing another discovery with regard 10
the culture of The peach and other
fruits, 10 which have been led by ex
periments with the thermometer on a
fleece of wool. / procured a bit Of
tanned sheep-skin with the wool on,
placed it with the woolly side up, in
a bucket as though | intended ii for
hens nest; | then put thermom-
ctcr i'll il with the bulb in the bottom
ofthe nest, and set ii out in the open
air. This Thermometers, Of certain
clear nights in August, when the
thermometer on the outside of the
nest and also in thc open air stood at
rs deg. and when that in the nest du-
ring the day had ranged as high as
$50 deg, was found at 42 deg.
This explained 10 me the reason of
cur finding in the low lands and bot
toms the earliest signs of rust in ar
tumn, and the latest in spring.
These are the places, therefore, which
in clear weathtr, when radiation is
active, are the hottest in the day and
the coolest in the night. And if you
plant the peach there, :hey will force
ITS blossoms in the day, and nip them
with their frosts at night.
Now, on the bill tops and sides,
the weather is cooler in the day and
warmer in the night when radiation
is active--consequent!y the hill tops
and sids Viii not force the buds so
soon, nor make irosis, nor kill The
fruit, when the bottom will: and
therefore The hill tops and sides, not
the bottoms, are the places for or
chards. There is ridge about
Washington upon which the peaches
fail, when failure is common to or
chards planted a short distance Fl om
1t on either side.

would as soon think of severing his
head from his body, as curtailing the
fair proportions of the heirloom of
his country. The Celestia!s are very
useful, quiet, good citizens. and are
deserving the respect of all. Then
comes the tawny malay dressed in
half civilized style, very dirty, but
with a carriage and bearing that
would become regal court. He
looks out of Place in our streets, Civ
ing one the idea of a degencrated and
disgusted OthcIo. Here comes the
tall and manly pole, and as we watch
ms form, we can but drop a fear for
poor Poland, whose children have
shed SO much Of their hearts blood
for liberty, but in vain. Watch the

as distinctive marks Of their consan-
guinity to the animal race, as do the
newly discovered Ghilancs or men

OF the four quarters of the globe have
been attracted to the spot bv the
magnetic influence Of goIl. They
are all seeking it-some with high
and noble thoughts-some for the
sake OF gold, that they may make a
noise i'll The world, some for honest
ends, and sol c for a simple living,
bed, board and lodging, for the mere
susten ncc Of nature. This strikes

The Climbing Perch.-This is the
name of n curious species Of fish dis
covered by DaldorlT, in Tranquebar.
1t is SO called from the fact, that it
not only croeps upon land, like the
/ Flat-headed Hassar, mentioned in
our last member, but even mounts in
to the hranch,s of trees. In all its
I parts. ,h;s fish is peculiarly fitted for
performing the latter operation. To
facilitate its progress over the bark,
! IT'S body is fabricated with a very slip
perry mucus. From lis giIl-coyers
/ project numerous little spine or drick-
les, which are used as hands with
| which 10 cling TO the tree. In climb
ing, the fish, turning its tail 10 the left
and resting upon the small spines OF
It's lower fin, pushes Itself forward by
/ expanding IFS body, al The same time
closing its gill covers, that they may
not impede lis progress then reopen
ing them it attains a higher point.
Thus, and by bending the spinal rays
of lis back fin TO the right and left,
and fixing them in the bark, ii is cna-
bed TO perform its.curious Journey.
Both the lower and back fms, so nee.
esssary for certain portions of this
climbing operation, can, at other
times, when they might be either use
less or discommodious, be snugly
packed away IN cavities left for that
purpose in the animals body. The

noticed and captured by Daldorff,
grew near a pond in which he dis, ov
