Rev. Nh. KALLocH.-The trial of this gentle
man is exciting deep sensation in the city of
Boston. The Court Room is crowded constantly.
the papers publish in full the testimony, and the
demand for the reports in the city and country is
30 extensive that the Traveller and Journal both
advertise the peculiar facilities they enioy for
furnishing the fullest and latest accounts.
The Advertiser is about the only paper that re-
frains from publishing the details. That paper,
indeed, lectures the papers that do thus pander
to the morbid taste Of the public for tales of lust
and crime. To which the Journal replies in ten
or twelve lines, which being condensed, concen-
trated and distilled, becomes the pungent re-
tort, "Mr. Advertiser, please mind your own bu-
siness."
The papers report that the husband of the i'm
plicated Lady was in court, by the side of Mr..
kalloch, seemingly inclined to make merry over
some OF the testimony. The wife of Mr.. Kalloch
was also present. very beautiful woman of very
pleasing manners.
Mr.. Kalloch is not one of the regular pastors of
Boston. He breaches to miscellaneous con-
gregation, that hires for its use the scture-room
of fremont Temple.

MR. kpIros ;-h We have any Spring this sea-
son, many Of your readers will doubtless look
about for something to plant in their yards and
gardens o. make the beginning Of an orchard
We have thought, therefore, that few sugres.
tions from Us, just at this time, in regard to the
kinds suitable for our climate, would be service
able to such as intend to engage in -planting
either this season or at some future time.
Nothing is more obvious to any one who be-
slows moments reflection on this subject. than
the fact that ii is neither profitable or pleasant to
plant trees to be killed the first or second winter.
To know, then, what varieties will endure our Sc
we're climate, is of paramount importance to any
one who intends ever to plant q tree or shrub
Nor will it be safe to plant such merely as are
capable of enduring our moderate winters. The
kinds only should be put out that have withstood
the terrible cold of the last two winters, although
few more tender varieties might be tried if any
wish to experiment.
In looking over the advertisements in different
papers, We find all the trees and plants offered for
sale are perfectly hardy. One agent goes SO far
as to guarantee all the varieties they send out to
endure our severe winters. Probably after his
wares are sold and the money pocketed he will
tell his customers to build greenhouse over
them, or take them up and bury them upon the
approach of cold weather. From the list publish
ed by this same agent, we find about one in te,,
only that will do for out door culture in this cli-
m ate.
OF all the trees and shrubs usually grown at
the East, not over one fourth can be relied upon
for our climate. This, some may consider rather
asweeping assertion and merely an opinion OF
ours but having spent more time and money,
during the past six years, in the way of expert
menting than all others in Minnesota, we feel, az
it were, authorized to express an opinion, and es-
pecially after having been repeatedly urged to do
so. The expression of such an opinion, and do
ing business strictly in accordance with it, redu.
ces our nursery sales amazingly just now, yet we
are bound to let the facts be known. Agents too
OF eastern and southern nurseries may suffer some
what, but it will not hinder them from doing q
large business, owing to the fact that SO few
know any thing about the kinds best suited to
our climate, and nearly every one must have q
few trees at least. If they cannot get Just such
as they would prefer, they will buy anything they
meet with in the shape of trees, even if they are
dead or nearly so from being long time out Of
the ground in performing journey of one thou.
sand miles or more. BY taking advantage Of
this rage for trees, none could make more none,
out of it than ourselves, but we prefer to do bu.
siness after different system, believing it will
pay in the end. 'e ae
We intended to name the tender and hearty va.
rieties, but our article is already too long.
