IHE O>IER WILLoW.-George j. C1lhv, OF
JonesyiIle, Vermont, contributes the follow
ing observations on the cultivation Of tie
Osler Willow to the Amersap Agric,uiaris..
The cultivation of the European osl,y -r
bdshd Ir'H0C, has drawn the attention ot
many Cultlyaturs within a few Years and 10
has beeh fully proved by the few that have
been engaged in the business. that II viii
grow as well in Ills as in the old country,
and that there is no crop that Will pay
better profit than Il crop Of willows, even
when peeled by hand, they always have
been. But now that there is II machine q
peel them with. there Is certainly No. crop
that offers So great inducements to American
cuityator, as this The machine above
referred to (my own invention) isvory simple,
and not liable to get out of repair 1t is mlde
principally of lndia-ruhher, So that il adtpts
itself to any sized willow, and cannot lnlure
them in the least. 1t can be made TO work
either by hand or horse power.
" The only objection that there has over
been 10 culuvating willows in this country,
to sup ly the immense demand of our own
markets, is the great amounted labor required
To peel them, which has made il poSSit ie for
one man to cultivate only a very few. as they
must be peeled in the short time that tho
bark will slip, in the spring But with the
help OF tins ma -hlne, any farmer may culu-
yate Just as many as he has suitable land for.
" he land best suited to them is intervale,
or meadow that is natural to grass. II
should toe Pioughed deep, and the cuttings set
in rows, three feet apart, and one foot f, II
each other IN the row. They Should D.,

DoBBs IN THE LEcIsLATuRE.-Owing to a
new phase in politics, Dobbs was elected 10
the Legislature. Though, gratiied, he was
also little intimidated by the honor, and
but for the thought that he wa, not nccessa-
rily obliged to speak, would have declined
serving.
As it was, he accepted.
All things went on smoothly for q time
Mr. Dubbs could vote on other peoples mo-
tions though he couldn't make any himself
One unluoky day, however, the proceed
ings being rather dull, and Mr.. Dobbs rather
thirsty, he concluded to 60 over TO Congress
Hall, and get glass of lemonade.
As he rose to leave the hall, he caught the
Speakers eye. The Speaker supposed he
intended to address the house, and according
ingly announced in a loud voice
"Mr Dobbs."
Dobbs started as if he had been shot.
The assembled wisdom of the State had
their eyes fixed upon him. He pulled out his
pocket handkerchief to wipe away the per-
spiration, and feeling il necessary to say
something, blundered out
"Second the motion"
There is no motion before the House, -
said the Speaker.
"Then I-I-'
The silence was breathlcss.

Dobbs couldn't think of anything 10 say.
But bright idea came to bin, and he finish
ed the sentence

The motion didn't 60, but Dobbs did, and
nothing more was seen of him tor that day.
