H The Buffalo Democracy" in a
strong Prohibitory Liquor Law article
says:
All over this land are men of educa-
ton and of genius. drunk daily, nightly
able, valuable men, stumbling with
drunkenness into gutters-that get pitia-
bic and disgusting, with all their intel
lects, down in noisome holes, fit places
only for natural blackgnards and villains
carried off to their homes in delirium
tremens-valuable and admirable men,
loved of wives and little children, and
mourned over by gray-haired mothers.
dying, inch by inch, an imbruting and
horrid death, who CAN'T resist the
temptation to drink, presented to them al
every furlong of their way. Every town
in New York has its living and It's dead
instances of this kind. Nearly every
family in the State has It's painful memorss
of an erring and lost relative. aeko could

Ac.ndid Admission.

A Pro-Slavery Kansas Aid Society
has been formed in Platte county. Mo-
At the meeting for that purpose Gen. B.
H. Hughes made speech, 10 which he
said:
"He took the position that Freesoilers
and Abolitionisls had ; legal right 10
vote in Kansas. and that the South must
beat them at the polls. by numbers.
'.The policy heretofore pursued. Of go-
ing over to Kansas 70 vote. worked bad
", and must be given up. Hs would
never cross over to vote again."
Speeches are now daily made in Con-
gress to deny what this man is frank
enough to admit. and what. indeed, Is
IS we'll proven as any fact of hisIory.

may, they viii never consent to see the
soil of Kansas reduced to bondage by the
satellites and rufiians of the Slave Power.
L,t the people riss in their might and
put an end to the Infamous inachina-
tons and designs of these traitors to Lib
erty. Everywhere let thc cry Of the
Slave Power through their Senatorial
tool, that Freedom shall be snbdued. I"

the whole North and West echo back the
defiance, Freedom shall never be sub

the plants to turn the water from the
row.
If any of the plants make strong.
upright growth in advance of the others.
they should be shortened during the
summer with corn knife or hook-hemp;
this should also be done during the sub
sequent growth of the hedge, whenever
these strong, upright shoots appear.
SECOND YEAR.
The following spring after the plants
are set, the furrow should be leyeiled of
and the plants cut down to within one
inch of where they were FIRST cut. This Is
done with strong scythe. Ii any of the
plants have failed to grow, the vacancies
should be carefully filled with strong
plants from the nursery, held in reserve
for the purpose. The row must again
be we'll cultivated as in the preceding
year. About the last of June, the tops
must again be cut off to within three
inches Of the last cutting.
THIRD YEAR.
Before the sap rises, the tops should
again be cut to within three or four inch
es of the preceding cutting, and again
repeated in June, leaving tour or five
inches of the last years growth.
The cultivation should be continued
through this season, which will be all
that will be required: the lower branches
having extended SO as to keep down the
weed.
FOURTH YEAR.
The first cutting for this year should
be within six inches of the last, and the
lower lateral branches should now be cut
for the first time, to within eighteen
inches of the main stem, on each side,
leaving the hedge three feet wide at the
bottom, and tapering upwards, SO that
when finished it will present hand
some, oval, roof-hke form. After this,
the semi-annual trimmings must be con-
tinued, leaving but short growth each
time, SO that the hedge shall not exceed,
at the end of six or eight years, Eve feet
wide at the ground, and not over FIVE
and a-half feet high.
The natural tendency of the Usage
Orange is to send up strong, upright
branches, which diverts the circulation
and checks the growth of the lower
branches. In order to prevent this, and
add strength, vigor and compacsness to
the base of the hedge, these upward
branches must always bechccked as soon
as they appear, and there must be no
omission or delay in the regular TRIM
ming. 1t is from this neglect that SO
many failures to make hedge of this
plant, have arisen. 1t must be a settled
determination of every one who plants a
hedge that the work shall be well and
faithfully done, and that the necessary
shortning-in of the branches shall never
be delayed beyond the proper period OF
the attempt will prove failure, and the
labor and expense will be in vain.-Nt-

Original Poetry.
FIR TIE Herald # FreedOn.
Kansas to the North.


Noble North, you have arisen.
Awakened from your letlIargy,
And from your great heart arises
The glorious watchword-Liberty.
Freedom sighed while you were dormant,
But low she smiles, since you've awoke
Slay'ry laughed at your inaction,
But now she shrieks, since you have spoke
You have heard how / have suffered
How my sons have been oppressed
How my rights have been down trodden,
And now you'll aid 30 have me blessed
Blessed with your own ffes Institutions,
Blessed with yonr wealth and energy,
Blessed With your virtues and your wisdom,
And with the thought that am free.
Yes, you have spoke, the South has heard ycu;
And now she stands back trenbiingiy,
Knowing that HER institution"
Can never have home with me.
Well she knews that her great cancer
Must rot away where now it lays;
And wien the putrid sore is heaicd
She may then look for better days.

Write 10 me very often,
Write to me very soon
Letters to Ele are dearsr
Than loveliest flowers in June ;
They are affections touches
Lighting of friendships lamp.
Fitting around the heart strings, :
Like fre-fiies in the damp.
Write to me very often,
Write in the joyous morn,
Or at the close of evening,
When all the day is gone;
Then while the stars are bcaming
Bright on the azure, sky.
When through the fading forest
Cold the wild winds sigh,
Draw up that little table
Close TO the fire. and wlite,
Write to me soon in the morning,
Or write to me late at night.
Write to me very often
Letters are links that bind
Truthful hearts to each other,
lettering mind to mind,
Giving TO kindly spirits
Lasting aud true delight;
If We would strengthen friendship
Never forget TO write.

Prof silIman on the Internal Heat os
tks Earth.

Prof. Sillman takes decided position
in favor of the theory that the center Of
the earth is fused mass of mineral mat
ter. His chief argument is the phenom-
enon of volcanoes which be calls the
earth's chimneys sndescape pipes. There
are hundreds of them always in operslion
hundreds are dormant: they are found
all over the earth and seas surface, and
they come from the bowels of the earth.
The fiery sea in the center of the earth,
says the Professor, boils over the tops of
its chimneys. and when these chimneys
become choked. it forces new vents,
breaking out even under the sea.
