TREATMENT OF ToMAroEs.-During the
early part of the growth of tomatoes, the
surface of the soil should be frequently dis.
turbed. When they have set their fruit they
may be shortened, and it may be deferred
until the fruit is Of half size, when it may
be readily observed that ninety per cent. Of
the fruit is within eighteen inches Of the
ground, while ninety per cent of the vine
or bush is beyond that distance. The vine,
therefore, should be trimmed to within half
an inch of the tomato nearest the end of
each branch. This will admit sun. and air
freely, and although ten per cent. of the
tomatoes that might have grown will be ta'
ken away, still the remaining portion will be
greater in weight and measure than if the
vine had not been shortened in. Tomatoes
are also several days earlier by this treat.

E.Ise.,ood extraordinary.

One of the Washington correspondents OF the New
York Herald makes the following deliberate state
ment
" Whilst the President is busy in depriving many
an honest employee of his means OF livelihood IN con-
sequence of daring to entertain an opinion upon the
politics of the day and in favor OF the principles OF
the American party. it would seem that he does not
feel himself sufficiently strong TO approach those OF
h Is cabinet who entertain the same principles. Jet-
ferson Davis stands committed as known nothing,
and so does McClelland and these facts are known
to the President, and yet these gentlemen continue to
keep their seats in the cabinet. There have been
times when difference of opinion of not more i'm
portance than the alluded 10 between the Presi-
dent and member of his cabinet, would have led 10
the resignation of the latter but things different
now a-days, and men are not SO willing to give up
power when once possessed"
It would be fair estimate to say that In ninety
cases out of every hundred the stories circulated III
regard to the administration in the New York press
are wholesale fabrications without even plausibiy
to rest upon. It is humiating to see any man SC
utterly degraded to unhestatngy coin lies for the
mere purpose of misleading the public mind.
state of things like this, belrays degree of degra
conductors, that may well excite serious apprehen
sons.
We have already exposed the calumny forged
against Governor McCIeland Secretary Of the Int
ror that he was a know nothing; and We now state
that the same charge against General Davis, Score
tary of War, is, if possible, more unmitgated and
more monsrous lie. The whole character and his.
tory of that gallant gentleman, his fearless hostility
to all kinds of persecution political and religious
his thorough identity with the democracy of Missis
sipPi, struggling against the intrigues and de-
ceptions OF the secret foe, all point him out among
the very last to make terms with great social and
public treasoR.-WaSh. Union.

passage, which occurs in letter published under the
heading of 'Our North Carolina Correspondence :"
sit is strange how many unavailable, unsuccessful,
and defunct politicians this strange sect has resur
reconized All the disafected and soured aspirants
for office, of all parties, have joined know-nothing-
ism, in last expiring effort to be something-o rule
or ruin the country, by sappng the very foundation
of the government in its present form, BY ignoring
civil and religious liberty in Short they are thriving
to return to the dark ages of the Inquison the rack,
the stake, and the guillotine. But it is not here in
the South that such Ubiquitous doctrines are to
coed, particularly in the Old North State, where we
have less gas than in any portion of the Union All
isms and montrosties in religion and politics are
eschewed by the sober, discriminating masses OF
North Carolina. We have no utilization with hum
bugs or their incendary and windy appeals to igno.
rance, selfshness, or bigotry of any kind"
This paragraph is noticeable on several accounts
1t describes with just severity the mschievous and
corrupt spirit of the know nothing leaders, of whom
the poor demagogue, Kenneth Rayner affords vis

tion the manly sincere, direct, straightforward ane
reliable, unosentatious patriotism which honorabl,
