does not doubt that any one Of the powers
OF Europe which should consent 10 under.
take the task of such arbitration as now
proposed would perform the duty with per.
feet impartiality. But to apply to any
power to do this would be to ask of it an
act which, If granted, would add to our
own domestic duties the labors and burden
of settling the complicated differences of
other governments. lie would greatly
prefer that, in controversy like the pre-.
sent, turning on points Of political geogra.
ply, the matter should be referred to some
one or more of those eminent men Of sci
ence who do honor 10 the intellect of Eu.
rope and America, and who. with the pre-.
vious consent of their respective govern.
ments, might well undertake the task of
determining such questions to the accept.

You are instructed therefore, to enter into
communication with Her Majesty's princi.

to Central America, in order TO ascertain,
in the first place, whether the existing diff
ferences cannot be promptly terminated by
direct negotiation. and il il camma., then
discuss the conditions or arbitration on
those points of difference as to which alone
this method Of settlement seems requisite

Bush YoUR ToMAroEs.-It is just rs
sensible to grow peas without bushing them
as 1t is tomatoes. You may grow both in
asIovenly sort of way, il you have plenty
of room on the ground; but you can grow
either twice as well upon something to
support them, and tomatoes are decidedly
better grown up in the air than near the
ground, under the shade Of mass of vines.
The best support for tomato vine is a
short bush set firmly in the ground. The
branches have room to opread among the
limbs and support the fruit, The plan is
much better than tying to stakes and trim
ming, according to our own experience.
We have tried both ways Agy;euituyal
