to various Republicans, and principally to
f. b. Sanborn, Secretary of the Massachu-

of Boston. In one letter, Forbes says, "On
the first of May, 1858, had an interview
with Senator Seward. of New York, and ex
planned fully the whole matter. He express
ed regret that he had been told, and said
that in his position he ought not to have been
informed of the circumstances" One letter
addressed to Howe was dated May, 1858, and
is prefaced by the following memoranda: !:
"Please show to Messrs Sanborn. Lawrence

Iany wears ago there lived near San Antonio
amiiy by the name of West. Emigrating to

THE.PRoPgR KIND OF TREES TO PLANT OUT.

A gentleman, originally from New York, but
now valuable citizen of South Carolina, who
bids fair to become eminent as pomologist,
and who has instituted experiments in various
fruits, far in advance of general practice, thus
sensibly writes to us:
"I desire trees of uniform size, one year old,
from the graft or bud, rs the case may be, and
fitted, as regards the conditions of the roots, for
immediate and vigorous growth. I am quite
averse to buying large fruit trees. lst. They
cannot be Systematically trained; and I'd, They
require to be shortened in so much, to compen-
safe for mutilation Of roots, as 10 present wide
surface of wounds. Trees, too, should be Of
Southern propagation, and thus, in some meas
nre. .adantsd e our climate 'Wel shall never
Lave SoaSherr r-SzSrrioo- r---kSs-sSG-zUt!
merits, until we cease to buy Northern trees"
Maiden trees of one year old, we always pre-
fer. from the reasons given so clearly by our
friend. But how different is the habit OF per-
aon, ordering trees, and how much fallacy eS-
lists in notions which prevail in this matter
Some persons wish an orchard in full bearing
the next year after they plant, and accordingly
order large trees, with spurs and buds, all ready
formed for the immediate production OF fruit.
For these men disappointment lies stored up,
and their labors are never to be rewarded. A
tree is like an infant, it must be taken young
nurtured and trained by the proper rules: IN
fact, it must be educated by proper culture TO
fit It for bearing perfect fruit. If left to the
uncertain results of natural action, it Will De-
come wild and rampant in its form, and degen-
eracy in the size am, flavor Of its fruit is certain
We saw this in order more clearly to 1ix the
idea in the minds of our readers, that too mucl
attention cannot be paid to the preservation o
the roots in transplanting- trees: we may a;
we'll stop up the mouth Of Child with cemen'
and expect it to live, as to plant out a iarse M S,
topped bean-pole looking tree, with laaS sl ooIs
exposed to the suns rays and suppose IL "os,' su
per kind of roots, then feed it-yes, feed i
bountifully, and our word for it, your labor vii

ABOUT SPREADING MANURE.

AS the time for top-dressing NOW lands IS az
hand. we have a word to say on the subject.
As to the question of fall or spring, we do
not believe any body can answer 1t TOR all cases
If the manure is old and we'll compoSted with
muck or other decayed vegetable matter; II the
ground is such, that there is no danger OF hard
washing from it; and further, if you will work
the manure down finely and evenly to the sur
face. we have no objection to fall top-dresslng.
II has it's advantages. The effect on the first
years crop will probably be greater, and the
permanent effect may not be less
For spring top-dressing we prefer the loilo~,
inc mode, having often practiced it ana found
the little extra labor implied, well paid, as we
believe. 1t is, to carry out the manure, (staole
or barn yard) early, to lay it in somewhat lar
ger heaps than would be most easily spread, say
six or seven to the large load; then to carry
and throw over each heap few shoyels full o
we'll cured muck, or in want of this, OF any
rich soil and to let it lie in this condition I'll
good tune for spreading 1t. That tune is
when long, cold northeaster Is brewing. Hhet
the indications of such storm are strong, W
would spread the manure, but not oeiore' ~
it be spread evenly, and worked in among th
grass roots. A bush harrow may IN solne Case
be used to advantage, and we would commen
its use, provided you will 80 after 1t with
raany-tined fork, Ut rake, and regulate ID
inequalities which the harrow may have lei
drawing the manure from place; that have re
ceiyed too much to others that have receive
none.
The muck or soil with which the heaps wer
covered, will render the manure more crumbly
will enable you to spread it more evenly, ali
will help to retain the ammonia, If your pre-
calculations of the weather should fail, and yo
should have sunny instead OF rainy weatner u
ter spreading. =,
To see manure carried on to NOW land, throy
about in Jumps, and left in that state thrqk,I
successive sunny and windy days, fa:nstls
with its odor for miles, is suggestive or anyrs.n
ut economy. If 20 loads OF manure sppIes
in rat way would give two tons of lay tt
iirse ad second year over no manure, we Ut
]eve it N,uld give more than thres tons, al
piled az we',sve suggested; and the Whole e.
tra labor Tor s. applying it, need nut be MOI
than from one tetwo dollars.
With regard to .oreading manure on fielt
to be plowed in, much may be saved ina sim
lar way. 1t should not be thrown about
Jumps to lie week or fortnight pouting Il
air. II for any reason it is " be carted 10:
before being plowed under, it is we'll worth t!
labor to coyer the heaps over witbAoii and tho
let them be,plowed or narrowed eiifss soon

And that this cup of life is filled
With many bitter draught

Der which the foods of sorrow
In angry billows roll;
They tell mo that this heart of mine,

May break with grief, and shadows fall

If it must como to me,

To mar life's happy hours,
