gathered outside the church. Shower oil
stone first came rafting through the windows
and then party of rowdies, armed with sticks
and stones, rushed into the church, and attacked
him in the pulpit The lecturer defended hin-
self with great GOODNESS and courage, knocking
down several of his assaillnts with char, and
when deprived of that, with the pulpit bench
which he tore for the purpose. he was al length
drawn from the pulpit by one OF the assaiiah's
who go, hold Of one of his legs, and pitched nm
over; further struggle ensued on the floor un-
dernpath when the lecturer was finally rescued
by his friends.

NATIVE FkUIrs,-There is doubtless an inn
meuse native capacity for fruits in our own
country were it once properly developed. 1t is
true that we are beginning to make progress, in
bringing to light, by improving or originating
new fruits, but we have only begun to work.
A writer in the Farmer and Mechanic affords an
idea Of what might be done, BY his experience
with the native gooseberry. He has omitted to
state the variety Of that fruit used-fnr there
are many Of them found wild with US. His ex-
pertinent is as follows:
"ln the early spring of 1849, when the buds
ofthe wild gooseberry be yan TO burst, took an
April sylvan excursion through damp places,
and with a sharp pruning knife, cut as many
vigorous and clean shoots as could find, from
the different kinds Of the much neglected goose.
berry.
"Having made large collection Of cuttings,
for the purpose Of propagation in a nursery bed,
cut them short one foot long-reiecting the
tender parts and trimming all the buds off,except
three or four upper ones. Then planted them
in rich, well trenched, and rather moist soil,
six inches apart in straight rows. The soil
around them was kept loose and clear of weeds
by frequent hoeing, and in good condition by
occasional waterings In the fall they were
found very fine plants; strong rooted, fit for
transplanting the next season. They shooted
from l2 to IL inches high the same season. To
render the plants more vigorous, clipped the
tender ends Of the limbs, trimming them in the
form of miniature trees.
"The second year they yielded plenty of
nice fruit Of double size. The third year all the
giants were heavily loaded with still larger ber-
ries Of different coiors and flavor. Last year |
picked fifty quarts Of much larger goosberries,
besides what were eaten by my friends and
visitors 10 my fruit garden. Some Of my native
gooseberries seemed much larger than Hough-
toms seedlings Prairie Farmer.
