Remarks Concerning the Apple.

The apple is universal fruit in the
temperate zone. 1t will grow on almost
any kind Of soil, but thriyes best on
deep loam. The fruit of many varieties
is delicious and wholesome, eaten raw
or cooked. 1t serves as physic for
the bowels, puriies the blood. and lis
acids correct impurities about the stom-
ach. Cider, made f-om its juice, is both
refreshing, Strengthening, and where il
is much used, little or no medicine is
needed. We have grown and fruited the
following varieties, in different sections
OF the country, and know them to be all
OF first rate excellence, either in their
raw state, or when cooked. The sizes
are defined thus: less than three inches
in diaiheter, are called small; between
three and four inches, are called me.
dium sized; all above four inches in di.
ameter are large:
Early Iarrest.-A native fruit of
medium size, and excellent qualities;
skin yellow--flesh white and crisp; with
a rich juice; ripe in July. The tree
thrifty grower and good bearer.
Maiden Biush.-A beautiful apple, a
native of New Jersey, of medium size;
lemon color, with bright red cheek
flesh white, tender, with lively favored
;aice, aud Of great celebrity in Philadel-
phia market; ripe in August, and keeps
till October. The tree great bearer
and rapid grower.
Summer Peoya1nins.-An eycslIent
apple, of medium size; skin red, streak
ed with yellow; flesh white and tender,
with sprightly perlumed juice. The
tree is slow and tender growth, but fair
bearer; ripe, end of August, and keeps
till October. ..
Fail Pppin.--A beautiful apple, of
large size; skin yellow, flesh mellow,
with spicy perfumed juice, and very
tender. The tree is thrifty grower,
and good bearer; ripe in October, and
keeps till March. Mr.. Downing says
this is native fruit; and surely is-for
it is universal here, and scarce in Europe.
There is tree of it of enormous size,
growing on "Ellerie," the seat of DR.. ].
M. Paul, Warren county, New Jersey,
and man ninety years old told me that
the tree was as large when he was boy,
as j. now is. This may prove to be the
original tree.
YelloU Belle FyoW.-A native of
New Jersey; choice apple, of large
size; skin pale yellow; flesh white,
with red blush OF the sunny side, crisp,

exactly as they had been directed. The
fore and main halyards were cut, and
the two graplings cast off at the same
instant, and as the heavy galts came rat
Ting down, our five heroes Ieaped on
board the pirate. The moment the clip
per felt her liberty, head swung of, and
before the fisherman, their own vessel
was half a cables length to leeward,
sweeping gracefully away before the
wind, while the three men who had been
left in charge were easily secured.
"Halloa, there!'' shouted Captain
SPlnne', as the luckless pirates crowded
around the lee gangway of their prize;
"when you find them ere silver dollars,
just let US know, will you!"
Half a dozen pistol shots was all The
answer the old man cot, but they did
him no harm; and, crowding on all sail,
he made for the vessel he had discovered,
which lay dead TO Ieeward of him, and
which he now made out TO be large
ship. The clipper GU. through the wa
ter like dolphin, and in remarkable
short space of time Spinnet luffed up un-
der the ships stern, and explained all
that had happened. The ship proved to
be an East Indiaman. bound for Charles
ton, having, all told, thirty men on board,
twenty of whom at once jumped into
the clipper and offered their services in
helping to take the pirates.
Before dark, Captain Spinnet was
once more in hailing distance of his own
"essel, and raising trumpet to his mouth,
he shouted: '--.m.a...
Schooner ahoy! Will YOU quietly
surrender yourselves prisoners if we
come on boardr'
"Come and try it!'' returned the pirate
captain, as he brandished his cutlass a.
bove his head in very ,hrea,ning man
ner. which seemed to indicate that he
would fight to the last.
But that was his last moment, for
Seth was crouched below the bulwarks,
deliberate aim along the barrel of heavy
rifle aud as the bloody villain was in the
act of turning to his men, the sharp
crack of Seth Spinnet's weapon rang its
iatai uCdii pSdi, anu tllc ueAt iuOlneul
the pirate captain fell back into the arms
of his men, with brace of bullets thro'
his heart. .7.ns . . ..... ...
"Now," shouted the old man. as he
leveled the long pivot gun, and seized a
lighted match, an give you Just five
minutes to make up your minds in, and
it you don't surrender, I'll blow every
one of you into the other world"
The death OF their captain, and, with
al, the sight of the pointed pivot gun
the peculiar properties Of which they
knew full well-brough, the pirates to
their senses, and they threw down their
weapons, and agreed to give themselves
up. ...-- w..
In two days from tha. time Captain
Splnnett delivered his cargo safely in
Havana, gave the pirates into the hands
OF the civil authorities, and delivered the
clipper up to the government, in re-
turn for which he received sum of
money sufficient for an independence
during the remainder of his lite, as well
as very handsome medal from the
governor. .a@. ....... ..a....

LIABILITY OF NEWSPAPER SUBscnI-
BERs.-The liability of subscribers to
newspapers and periodicals is not, per-
haPs, in many cases, duly considered.
A case has recently been decided, which
will waken attention 10 the subject. Mr..
Jasper Harding, of Philadelphia, not
long since recovered large sum (about
$l2O, we believe.) for subscription to
the Pennsylvania Lnquirer of man re-
siding in Rhode Island. The circum-
stances were ihese-the subscriber took
the paper for some time and then sent to
the publisher notice of discon,inuance
scithout forwarding the moneyfor pay
ment. The publisher took no notice OF
this. nor several subsequent notices OF
refusal to take the papers from the post
office. The result was, that, notwilh-
standing the Rhode Islander did not re-
ceive the paper for several years, We, he
was forced to pay Mr.. Harding the
whnle amount up to the period claimed
by tie biz.
Were the laws enforced more frequent.
ly in cases of delinquent subscribers OF
long standidg, such heavy losses would
not accrue so often to publishers. An
occasional example may have a good eff.
fect.--Farner 9. Mechanic.

A lady was sitting with her three
children in coach, awaiting the return
of The driver. who had left his horses
unattended while he stepped for a mo-
ment into neighboring hotel During
his absence the horses started, wheel
ed the coach about, and trotted of down
the street al moderate speed. The
lady who naturally enough, was some.
what alarmed at the incident, called out
to gen,lemanly dressed man who was
approaching the carriage from an oppo-
site direction, that ''lhe horses were 90.
ing without driver" ~ see they are, !"
said the fellow, with entire sang froid,
and passed on. The lady said she was
so much amused with the impuden,
non-chalance of the rascal that it quite
restored equanimity till truer gentle
man, in the livery of a charcoal-man,
came 10 the rescue.-Boston Post.
