Pie Plant and Evergreens.

Mr. CaHooN, it will be seen, opens the season cam
pagn, in the Pie Plant department with renewed vi
gor. 1t would puzzle us to say any thing new to
add to the wellcarned and widely disseminated fame
ofhe 'Cahoon Seeding. Nor is it necessary, AS we
notice the Government has taken the matter i'll hand
and given it place in the Patent Office Report, and
thus given it national circulation.

these Evergrcens Mr.. c. offers are as remarkably

Injury to Fruit Trees.

1t is very probable that i'll some sheltered locates
the fruit trees have entirely escaped injury in conse
quence of the intense cold of last winter but our
animation leads us conclude that the injury TO the
fruit trees least III this neghhorhood, from that
cause will be found To be extensive amounting to
the eutre destruction of many kinds.
In our garden, the pear trees are killed beyond
redemption, peaches and apricots of course and ma
ny of the cherries In Mr.. Cahoons extensive gar
dem VIC believe there is not one of his many fine
dwarf pear trees, many of which have borne for a
number uf years, spared Peaches and aprcots also
entirely destroyed and trees Of other kinds injured
and many completely killed We incline to the
opinion that many trees which have Il fresh exterior
bv cutting into the wood will be found To be back
and dead, and viii disappont the expectations that
their fair outside excites
1t will take years to repair The damage of the late
winter in this Respectful say nothing Of !he paraly
sis upon future exerton thar the fear of such
visitation may excite.

Public School Exercises.

The public exercises proposed at tho close of this
term of the public school, commenced yesterday nd
will be continued to-day and to morrow, closing to
morrow evening with declamatons reading of com
positions, &c, at The Congregational Church We
attended portion of the time yesterday and gave
our attention to the exercises, which consisted OF
public recitations in the usual routine of study.
Dir Lynchs class in Algebra on the rostrum
when we entered. Our limited knowledge Of the
study enubled us form better opinion the pro-
fcency of the class than their prompness and rea-
illness of reply to the various questions propounded
to them, furnished which was highly favorable Mr.
lynch is proficient in the higher branches of Math-
MATES and his class did credit to his labors.
Miss Briggs cluss in arithmetic, took the floor.
The ready reference of the members of this class to
the rules under which they working, their ready
and generally replies to the various questions
propounded to them, and the readiness of their work
on the black board, gave evidence not only OF their
proficiency but of the proficiency also of their
instructress.
Composition and defamation filed out the SER
vices Of the morning, which however, we did not
hear.
We spent part of the afternoon in the primary
department, in charge of Mr. Stoue us principal and
heard the classes of Miss Head Miss Treadw ell and
Mr. Stone In reading. The same remarks are appli-
cable to ALL The teachers evidently understood
their business as it manifest that the scholars
had been trained read slowly and carefully, to
phasise correctly, and enunciae distinctly. Miss
Heads class was also exercised some in spelling
ry satisfactorily. This department we judge from
what we saw, was i'll excellent drill and under excel
lent instruction.
Proceeding ngnin to the upper department, we
found Miss Waldo's class in German on the floor.
Nix fur sta is the extent Of our knowledge of the
language and we are not We know even that
But Miss Waldo is evidently acquainted with it, and
what IL more important, knows how to teach it. At
least we had reason to infer from the facility with
which her pupils travelled over and through the jaw
breaking vernacular, and gave the etymology, syn
tax aud prosody, for all they said.
Miss Briggs then had class IN reading, accompa-
MED with phonetic spelling. We are partial to pho
netics and are glad to that is least recogni-
scd in the school.
Several Misses read neat and pleasing compost
Poland-und Elder Lothrop, from tie visitors made
some appropriate remarks, which closed the days
