Fruit Tree. in the North.

NIB. Bateham, in o letter to the Ohio Far
.mer, confirms statements from other sources,
that many of the peach trees are frozen TO
death. The NcwYork Tribune alsosSays:
ave think that nearly all that were planted
last yesars9ssar AL sall that stand in nndraincd,
rich ground, tiass naturally moist, and all
that made q good dear q new wood last year
will be seriously injure@Ss We reiterate our
advice to use the pruning knife freely. That
can do no harm, and may save your trees. NC
not cut them down until you are sure they are
dea and then cut away the body close to the
CIR Z and cover the stump with a Sod, ano
, see if ths rect will send up sprouts. II
your trees arc deaG be discouraged, bu1
plant more we may4fot bSsee such another
winter as this in this century In Ohio it il
generally conceded that the buds of peaches
cherries, apricots, Some pears, and som'
| of the most tendur atf4es, are killed OF badl,
injured upon the clay lands"
The Prairie Farmer says:
We have given up all hopes Of a fruit crol
except apples. The thermometer has been 2:
degrees below zero in Chicago, ard % degree
in The vicinity. The %presumtion is that peacl
trees, etc., md al rather tender shrubs arr
dead down to their snow lire. And we fen
that half the badly handled peddlers' trees
brought into the country last fall, will be fonn
in the same category, whether planted out Q
heeleI'ia The time for pruning is when til
first II. weather Of early spring renders
necessary to cut back, before the sap begins
circulate then do SO asgltt,e balow the evidcn
frost-marked or dead line. But even if ii
peach trees are Of good sorts, do not touch til
bodies too rashly, for they sometimes surviy
after the hsrk and wood show discoloratio

Popping the Question.

Speaking of popping the question:" we
don't know but what it would be fairly in or
der TO " wiring il" the following from an ex-
change u.
4" lie sure before you commence cooing. Our
friends T--and S., one evening. met at
the house OF an acquaintance of some young
ladies for whom both gentlemen entertained
tender feelings. In a spirit of frolic, one of the
young ladies blew out the lamp, aud our friends,
thinking it u favorable moment to make known
their feeling to the fair objects of their regard,
moved seats at the same instant, and placed
themselves, as they supposed, by the lady's side,
but she had also moved, and the gentlemen
were in reality seated next to each other. AS
our friends could not whisper without betray-
ing their whereabouts, they both gently took,
as they thought, the soft hand of the charlner,
and which after a while they ventured a gentle
squeeze, each was surprised to find it returned
with an unmistakable pressure. 1t may be
well imagined that the moments flew rapidly,
in the silent Interchange Of mutual affection.
But the rest wondering at the unusual silence
of the gentlemen, one of them noiseIessly
sttenped out and suddenly returned with q light,
and there sat our friends r. and s.
most lovingly squeezing each others hand. and
supreme delight beaming in their eyes. Their
leoas!ernatieat and the ecstasy Of the ladies,
may be imagined but not described. Both
gentlemen siofti, and + was afterwards
heard TO say he thought all the while SIS
hand felt hard

-iuS' .-io money Gags OF d F0ou-natureQ,
liolls old gentleman called Uncle Sam,
Uncle Sam is at Washington-and one Of his
family, NewY ork--the other victim Of impo-
sition-is al TAlbany. The quacks pretend a
great love fer Freedom, and are never weary
Of addressing the men and brethren - on her
behalf-but the complainant is satisfied that
the noise they are all making is but to divert
the attention of the police from the Peter Funk
operations that are going on near the Treasury.
Complainant further alleges that she has all
the necessary specifications i'll proof of her ac-
cusations-and prays, first, he Shrieks for
Freedom" may be stopped Mt Albany, Or
Washington--or if that cannot be-that the
public may be duly notified that whenever such
" Shrieks are varied, it is time to " Beware
of Pickpcekets." The straightforward, artless
manner in which the young lady related her
story excited the sympathy of the court--and
aroused Il universal curiosity to learn what
might be the answer to her complaint.
The defendant is o big, burly-looking fel-
Iow-with two faccs-one constantly looking
like the magnetic needle, to the North, and the
other in the direction of Africa, or Kansas.
Singular to say, though, like another Polyphe-
mus, be has but one eye, and consequently, can
never be made TO see but one side Of u question.
He has enormous Caliban-like claws, admira-
bly, calculated to removing the deposites.'
He affects TO be in love with Freedom " and
" Liberty" but as complainant alleges, it is al
afectation, and nothing else. His " shrieks -
are intended to operate, like the crocodile's
tears, only to entray the unwary. His name
is Black Republican-alus Fusion.
The Judge announced that the case should
have a hearing before the People, at an early
day. The goddess then left the Court, amidst
"Shricks for Freedom" from the spectators.
Black Republicanism, it was observed, had q
number of people near by, administering spir-
itual consolation.
The case eScites much interest, and, in the
course of its trial. some rich developments may
be looked for. IN. Y. Express.
