APPLES WITHOUT SEEDS OR CoREs.-A
correspondent of the Memphis Wing gives
the following recipe for obtaining apples
without seeds or cores:
Take the ends of the limbs of an apple
tree. where they hang low, so as to reach
the ground, dig small hole for each end
under the tree. bend it down and bury it in
the hole, eonfning it down so that it will re-
main. Do this in the winter, or the begin
ming of spring. The end of the limb thus
buried will take root and put up sprouts or
scions. which when they become sufficiently
large to ''set out" dig UP at the proper sea-
son. and transplant them in the orchard
where you wish them to remain. When
they get large enough to bear, they will bear
apples as above.

MADAME REsTELL-We dislike to soil
our columns with the name of this hell-cat,
who plies her trade of systematic murder in
New York with such profitable results, but
the abortionist has been arrested again. on
the charge of a young woman who was five
times within the last four years submitted to
her foul experiments by the cruelty of her
keeper, a member of the Church and a rich
man, named George R. Shackford This
time we hope the murderess and her en-
ployer win both obtain their deserts The
wretched woman, now broken in constitu-
ton and consigned to infamy, who makes
the affidavit. states that, on the first occasion,
she asked Madame Restell, what she had
done with the child; to which the incarnate
feud replied coolly that she had burned it
up and yet there is not finer equipage
III New York OF more fashionable estab-
lishment than those kept by the profits of
the numbering trade. If ever Lynct-law
was justi6able it is in such case. A pub
lie execution by a slow fire would be too good
fate for Mr. Shackford and his notorious
confederate, if the affidavit of the Grant girl
contains any truth, as it probably does

THE BIRTH OF poRTRA1ruRE.

BY lAOslAS A1COhEs
As once the Grecian maiden wove
Her garland mid the summer bowers,
There stood youth, with eyes OF love,
To watch her while she wreath'd the flowers
The youth was skili'd in Painting sart,
But ne'er had studied wnman's BIS;
Not known the coloring which the
Can shed Ger natures charms, till now.
Blest be love to whom we owe
All that's fair and bright below.
His hand haa pictured many rose,
And sketehed the rays that light the brook;
But what Were these, or what were those,
Toswoman's blush. to woman's look.
Oh! if such magic power there be,
This. this, he cried, is all my prayer,
To paint that living light see,
And fix the soul that sparkles there.
His prayer as soon as breathed was heard;
His pallet, touched by Love, grew warm.
And Painting saw her hues transterr'd
From lifeess flowers to womar.'s form.
Still, as from tint to tint he stole,
The fair design shone out the more,
And there was now life, a soul,
Where only colors glow'd before.
Then first carnations learn'd to speak,
And lilies into life Were brought,
While mantling on the maiden's cheek,
Young roses kindled into thought;
Then hyacinths their darkest dyes
Upon the locks of beauty threw,
And violets, transferr'd to eyes,
Enshrined a soul within their blue

The Old Woman.

It was thus, few days since, we heard
STRIPPING OF sixteen years designate the
mother who bore him. BY coarse husbands
we have heard wives so called occasionally,
though in the latter case the phrase is more
often used endearingly. At all times, as
commonly spoken, it jars upon the ear and
shocks the sense. An "old woman" is an
object Of reverence above and beyond al
most all other phases Of humanity. Her
very age should be her surest passport to
courteous consideration The aged mother
of grown up family needs 20 other certifi-
cate OF worth. She is a monument of ex-
cellenee. approved and warranted. She has
fought faithfully "the good fight" and come
of conqueror. Upon her venerable face
she bears the marks of conflict in all its fur
rowed lines. The most grievous of the ills
Of life have been hers; trials untold and
unknown only to God and herself, she has
borne incessantly, and now in her old age
her duty done, patiently awaiting her ap-
