ATTEND TO YOUR pGAcuE3,--Thc Ala
bama Planter says; A gentleman
handed us yesterday the following.
which may be Of service to some OF
our readers. A friend of mine has just
informed me Of the success he met by
the application Of charcoal to peach
trees, a few years he had some fine
peach trees in his garden which inva-
riably had wormy fruit, and the trees
were full Of gum. When the fruit
was about the size Of marbles, he had
the earth removed from each about
two feet round and three inches deep,
and filled with charcoal The result
was that the fruit grew to q fine size,
free from worms, and every year since
the fruit has been good, and the trees
became healthy and free from gum,
while two trees left without the char
coal continue to bear wormy fruit and
are unhealthy.

The NaturaIIzation La1vu.

Yesterday the special committee in the
House consisting of MessrS. Littler, Flowers,
Hume, Haines and Mills, reported back
without amendment, the bill introduced
some time since, by Mr.. Flowers, prohibiting
State Courts from exercising jurisdiction
under the Naturalization laws Of the United
States, and recommended unanimously its
passage. The committee in the course of
their investigation of the subject, became
satisfied, that as the law now stands, no in
dictment could be found in the State Courts
for perjury in procuring naturalization pa
pers, as it was an offence against the United
States, and to make such false swearing pun
ishable by statue in the State Courts, would
place person taOice IN jeopardy for the
same ofence-contrary to the Constitution
of Ohio. The bill has been committed
to the committee of the Whole, aud will
elicit considerable discussion, as it is truly
an alarming condition of things, that our
State Courts should be without power to
punish perjury committed in their presence; ;
and it is strong argument for confning
naturalizations to the q. s. Courts, where it
is sproperly punishable It is, besides, auoth-
er proof of the gross abuses and frauds that
have grown up under the present careless
administration of our naturalization laws,
which all honest men should unite to speed
lily check if they would preserve the purity
of our elective franchise from corruption by
demagogues.- S. Journal

After Atchison had finished his harangue,
Stringfellow was called out and defined
Democracy as follows:
SOD q ALL MUST BE DEMOCRATS.
Throw to the winds all party ties, names,
DC, and unite under one name, which name
will, perhaps, surprise you when announce
it. Its the name of Democrat. do not
know by what name many of you may be
called, but l want you to call yourself Dem
ocrats, for this reason: they are the only
party that are true to you. All other par
ties have betrayed you. There is no other
National party. I well knew that the
Know Nothing party never could be Ma
tional party. The Know Nothings of the
North are Abolitionists, and those at the
South are SO divided by side issues and so
on, that their strength is lost. But the
great Democratic party is National party.
They are true to you, both North and South,
have always stood by you, have your inter
ests at heart, and it is only by uniting with
them that our interests are secure.
What those interests are which String
fellow has so much at heart, and which the
Democracy will protect, can be gathered by
an extract from pamphlet issued by com
mittee of the Platte county Selfdefensive
Association, of which StringfelIow is Chair
man In that Report page 80, occurs the
following argument in favor of slavery to
wit: a @ -.- b.
"Negro slavery has further effect on the
character of the white woman, sUhich sho'd
commend the institution to aHqeko lore the
aOhite race more than they do the negro
1t is shield to the virtue of white wo-
man.
$50 long as man is le1gd, s0oman aOW be
has victnm. Those who are forced to oceu-
py menial position, have ever been, will
ever be most tempted, least protected; this
one of the evils of slavery; it attends all
who are in that abject condition, from the
beautiful Circdssidp to the sable daughter
of Atrica. While we admit the selfshness
of the sentiment, zoe are free to declare sce
lore the aOhite agoman so much, we wO,dd
saUe her eVen at the sacrifice of the negro,
would throw around her every shield, keep
her out of the way of temptation,

A noble Lord in England, lately of a
reckless character-there are now many
Esuch-applied to pawnbroker for a loan Of
1000 guineas upon his wife's jewels, which
had cost originally 1000 guineas. "Take
the articles to pieces" said his Lordship,
number the stones, and put false ones in
their places; my lady will not distinguish
them" "You are too late, my Lord" said
the pawnbroker, ayour lady has gained a
march upon you, for these very stones arc
false, having purchased the diamonds Of
her Ladyship last yearp The noble Lord
started The lady was as reckless as her
husband-no uncommon occurrence. Is
this what is usually termed ''lighting a con-
die at both ends" If the pawnbrokers Of
England Tor New York either could-or
rather would-speak, what a tale of dis
aster they could tell Of the real condition Of

Georgia vs.. Ohio.

Mr.. Todd's resolution in the Ohio House
of Representatives, to raise, arm and equip
five regiments of Volunteers for the protec-
tion of the rights of the Free State men in
Kansas, has given the Georgia Legislature
a spasm. A Mr.. Harris declared this Ohio
resolution "as the strangest document he
had ever seen since he was in his cradle" I"
and after making this speech he introduced
the following bill:
Be At enacted By the Senate and House
of Representatives of the State of Georgia
IN General assembly met and 1t is hereby
enacted By the authority aforesaid That
when the Governor of the State of Georgia
shall be advised that the provisions of the
resolution pending in the Legislature of
Ohio has been adopted, and efforts made to
carry it into effect by raisingsaid regiments,
At shall be has duty to ra,Se like number of
regiments, fully armed and equipped, at the
expense Of this State to be maintained 6y
her public treasury for t,0elve months, and
tender their services to the President of the
United States as Volunteers, to repeI the
Gggressions of the State of Ohio. It shall
be the duty of said President to accept or
reject the services of said regiments within
twenty days after the Governor of Georgia
shall tender them to him.
Be it further enacted, That if the Presi-
dent of the United States shall reject such
Volunteers, and the Governor of Georgia
shall believe that proper arrangements are
not being promptly made by him to repel
force with force, His Excelency the Govern
or shall Immediately tender the servises of
said regiments to the people of Kansas.
This was moved as an amendment to a
bill previOuly reported upon, called the At
tachment bill, which proposes to levy tax
of one hundred per cent. upon goods COM
ing to that State from Abolition States
The bill had been discussed and defeated,
but on the motion of member it had been
reconsidered and the above amendment
moved to it. A number of speeches were
made BY the excited members, and Ohio
was thoroughly lampooned, to the great re-
lief of the indignant gentlemen; after which
the whole subject was referred to Commit
tee with instructions to report next day.
Innocent but irrascible Legislators! If they
had reflected that "BuncombeD was an arti-
Gle not entirely monopolised by Georgia pol
iticans, 'fellow feeling" might have made
them more lenient TO the offending Todd,
and the bellicose old Buckeye Common
wealth San. Register.

The Fuzitiyes.

This case has deem decided at Cincinnati,
and the negroes remanded to Slavery. The
Commissioners refuses to deliver up the ne
groes, who are indicted for murder, to the
Sheriff; thus, of course holding, that, the
right of Kentuckian to his property, is
"higher law" than the right of the State of
Ohio for redress for the crime of murder.
If it shall stand as law, that, Slavehold-
ers can bring their slaves into Ohio and not
forfeit their claim to them as such slaves,
(eyen if the bringing is merely for tempo
rary purpose) then, the last plank has given
away upon which the rights of the Free
States hope to rest. What is temporary
purpose? Is it for an hour a day, or
year? Where is the line between tempo
rary residence and permanent residence q
It will result in this, that, whenever a slave
holder shall bring his negro into Ohio, with
the intention sometime or other, of going
back to Slave State, however indfnite and
remote the time of return may be, that,
will be held as temporary purpose, and a
residence of months, or years on Free Soil
will not even permit the claims of human
bondage to rust off, Not house in Ohio
would be safe from the curse Of involuntary
servitude, for the quo anino-as the law
yers say-would control When a window
shall be put into every mans breast, so that
the secrets Of the heart can be laid bare,
then, and not till then, can mans actual IN
tentions be judged Of, and righteous justice
meted out accordingly. There is but one
way to judge of men, and that is, by their
actions, and hence, when STAKEHOLDER shall
voluntarily bring bis slave into Free State,
even for moment of time, that one breath
of free air should work that bondsman's

England, in relation to Central America,
and practically considers that the American
Interpretation Of the Clayton and Bulwer
treaty, IS just It recommends the aban-
comment of British professions in thatquar-

@Let US take our stand on the literal con-
struction Of the Clayton and Bulwer treaty.
which accomplishes for Us all we can reason
ably desire in Central America Let rs
frankly give up our Fashionable right to the
Mosquito protectorate and the Island Of

of the whole embarrassment at once and
forever, throw tho worthless settlement Of
Balize into the bargain. In return, let US
callupon the American Government not only
to observeits portion of the treaty, in respect
of which we have hitherto had nothing to
complain, but also to root out the gang Of
pirates and murderers who have taken forc
ible possession of the State Of Nicaragua, and
bold It in defiance Of both countries. Such
an example would do more to carry out the
intention of the treaty than any amount Of
protection to drunken sayages or occupation
of worthless islands"

SOMETHING OF SHowER-By a rain
gauge kept at the Lunatic Asylum, Colum-
bus, it appears-as we see in the Journal
that there have fallen this year 494 inch
es of water. The statement says:
By calculation it will be found that more
than $4,000 bbls have fallen on a singe acre,
and slPposing each and every acre in Ohio
to have received the like quantity, (the area
being 200 miles square), water has descend
on this State alone in single year, sufi-
cient to fill a canal $4,000 miles long (the
entire circle of our globe), 500 feet wide,
and nearly 20 feet deep. The late DR.. Ray
of Cincinnati, a very careful observer of me-
teorological phenomena, communicated to
the public some seven years since, that the
mean annual rain for thirteen consecutive
wears had been "a inches. Others have put il
down for a longer term of years at 3744 inch

snow ON me NOrthern RaiIToa5..


The editor of the Binghampton Dailv
Republican states the incidents of a trip to
Northern New York, and the condition Of
its railroads as follows:
After passing very quiet night IN STAN
wix Hall, in Rome, we repaired in good sea-
son to the depot, where we found a power
full team of four engines attached TO the
train, preceded by noble sized suow-plow,
occupied by some half dozen men, with
shovles, DC, ready for a start. We were
soon under way, most gallantly pushing
through the piles of snow which had aceu-
mulated upon the track during the previous
Iforty-eight hours, our plow Indignantly toss-
ing the drifts aside to the right and left, un-
til we entered bank so high that it could
not be thrown aside, when she would toss IL
over her head, and COMPRISING it on either
hand, would open passage for the follow
ing train. It was noble sight, scene of
great excitement to many. Some Of our
passengers amused themselves by going out
and riding from one station to another in the
plOw, which was constructed in the form of
a caboose, and would hold dozen Or more.
At one time it seemed almost as If we were
to be buried, for the snow was so high on
either side of the cars as to make it quite
dark-as if we were passing into a tunnel.
However thanks to Providence and the DOW
'er of steam, we were not stalled. But such
piles of snow! We never have seen their
like before, and hope not to see such again.
In Rome, Adams, and some parts of Wa
tertOwn, we found the sidewalks beaten on
a levelwith the tops Of the fences, while in
many instances, the front yards of the
houses were filed up to the same height.
forming complets barricade 10 the front
door, and the prospect IS fair for more to
come. Such winter as This has not been
Experienced in these parts for many years
past.
The Rome and Watertown Railroad, as
all other roads, especially north and south
roads, has been completely blockaded for
days together. The Saeket's Harbor Road
has been under cover for six weeks or more,
and we learned last evening that they did
not intend to open it till spring, As they
lost far less money to have it idle than to
run it during this winter. We have not
heard very recently from the 0gdensburgh
Railroad, but our last information, two weeks
ago, was that it had been shut up for two
weeks, with no prospect Of its being open
very soon. It has been hard winter on
railroads everywhere.
