Ma. BoRLAsD's APPolNTMEsT. The

elected II it should be conlended, in

just twice the salary Of any OF his
predecessors by virtue ofan act oi the
late Congress, Of which he was a

presents "A difficulty which we confess
ourselves unable TO solve. Ol course,

constitutional y was so extreme (ii we
mistake noD as to lead him to oppose

AN IMMENSE PEACH ORCHARD
gentleman, named Davis, residing in
Ch rmonl County, OHIO, has peach or.
chard of 100 acres, containing 1900
trees. Mr.. Davis, it appears, left Phil
akelphia few years ago, and Purchas-
ed his present iarm-then considered
the poorest one in the neighborhood-
and set it ont with peach trees, of 20
different varieties, from New Jersey
AS the farmers in that vicinity had tried
for several years previous to raise
peaches for market, and had uniformly
failed. they considered the experiment
of Mr. Davis foolish one, and even
went so far as to appoint 4 committee
10 request him To abandon it, as 1t
would certainly ruin him. He persc-
vered, however. Notwithstanding 5000
OF the trees died soon after being plant
ed. This was years ago. In 1859
he gathered his fret crop, from which
he realized sufficient TO pay for his larm
and trees, and to leave him $500 on
hand. This season about 5000 G the
trees are bearing, and already 1900
baskets have been sold, ai over S per
basket. His net profits this season are
estimated OF $4,000.

4 THE PRoGaEss OF RusslA.-There is
something really grand ana imposing in
the steady march Of Russian dominion
since Peter the Great first consolidated
hls empire into substantive slate. On
his accession IN $50, lis Western boun-
dary was in longitude 80 degrees, and
! Is Southern III latitude AZ degrees /;
these have now been pushed 10 longi-
tude Is degrees and latitude 80 degrees
respectively. Russia had then no ac-
cess TO any European sea her only
ports were Archangel in the Frozen
/ Ocean, and Astrakhan on the Caspian /;
she has now access both TO the Balnc
and the Euxine. Her population, ,main-
| ly arising from increase ol territory, has
augmented thss:
At the accession Of Peter the Great,
in 1859, it was 100000 at the &C.
cession of Catharine the Second, in
1852, it was 25,O00 0O0 at the accession
oil Paul, in 1896, it was 100000 at
the accession Of Nicholas, in 1925, il
was IS, 100000. BY the treaty Of Neuss
tadt, io 1921, AM by subsequent trea-
ty IN 1909, she acquired more than half
the kingdom Oi Sweden, and the com.
mand Of the Gull Of Finland, from which
before she was excluded. By the 3
partitions Of Poland, in l772, 1893, AMI
1895, and by the arrangements of 1878.
she acquired territory nearly equal in
extent TO the whole Austrian empire.
BY various wars and treaties with Tur-
key, in 1894, 1888, aud 1912, she robbed
her Of territories equal IN extent TO all
that remains Of her European dominions
and acquired the command of the Black
Sea.
Between 1900 and 1914, she acquired
from Persia districts at least as large as
the whole OF England, from Tartary Il
territory which ranges over SO degrees
of longitude. During this period OF 80
years, she has advanced her frontier
500 miles toward ConstantibopIe, $50
miles towards Stockholm, 700 miles
towards Berlin and Vienna, and 1000
miles toward Teheran, Cabool, and
Calcutta. One only acquisition she has
not yet made, though steadily pushing
it, earnestly desiring ii, and feeling it TO
be essential to the completion Of her
vas, designs and the satisfaction Of her
natural and consistent ambItion-name-
Iy The possession OF c nstantinopie and
Roumelia which would give her the
most admirable harbors and the COM
mand of the Levant, and would enable
her TO overleap, surround, menace, and
embarrass all the rest OF Europe - Lon

Way Mr.. BUCHANAN NEVER MAR

WHY Mn. BUCHANAN NEVER MAR
RiED.-A correspondent Of the New Ha-
ven Palladium, writing from Lancaster,
Pa, briefly records the reason:
"a short distance from the city is tie
country residence OF Hon. John Bucha-
nan, American Ambassador TO the court
OF ST. James. Its general appearance
at once indicates that no fair hand is
there to train the creeping vines or bud
ding roses TO their BETTING place-as
you are aware that the honorable
gentleman still remains in single blessed
ness The story is briefly told. Paying
his addresses TO young and beautiful
lady ofthis city, each became deeply
enamored, and they were engaged. On
gwen evening, she requested his cor-
pany TO party at friends, which he
declined OH the plea OF business engage
ments. Circumstances rendering it
necessary, he, late in the evening. gal
lanted a young lady to her home, and
on the way-they met. Mortified ard
chagrned at what she deemed unfaltl-
iulness and desertion, and imagining
the worst, she left the city early in the
morning. and returned u corpse. Such
is the sa4 story OF his early love, nor
can the high places Of distinction and
trust make him forget, nor the wrcalhs
Of honor that encircle his brows bury
the memory Of the early loved and lost"

LiXURlous KissING.-kissu 4 is ac-
counted a luxury in almost every mark
et ana every part ol the world. Almost
any writer can describe emoriors OF Joy,
anger. lear, doubt, or hope but there
are very few who can give anything
like an adequate description Of the ex-
qulsi,e, heavenly and thrilling joy OF
warm, afIectionate kissing. We copy
below three Of the best attempts that
We have ever seen. The first IL by
young lady during the first year Of
courtshp.
Let thy arm twine
Around me like a zone of love
And Thy fond lip. SO soft,
10 mine he passionatey pressed,
As il has been So oft.
The next is by IA lady shortly after
her engagement. 1t will very readily
be seen that her powers Of descr, plion
are far in advance of the ones quoted
above:
Place thy dear arm beneath my dropping head,
And let me IowIy nestle on thy heart ;
Then turn those soul-lit orbs on me, and press
My parting lips to taste the ecstacy
Impaired by each long and lingering kiss.
But the best thing We have seen is
the following, by Alexander Smnh.-
We think, however, that when man
SO freely INDUCES in oscuIatory nectar
as TO imagine he is walking on thrones,'
he should be choked off. Hear HIM
My scu caped up beneath thy tinid kiss
What then to me were groans,
Or pain, or death Earth was round Of blsr,
seemed to walk on thrones.
