DECEMBER.--
Full knee deep lies the winter snow,
And the winter winds YEARLY signing
Toll ye the church bell sad and slow,
And tread softly, and speak low,
For the old year lies dying.
That's the way Tennyson wrote of December,
but the programme will have to be slightly al
tered for this locality. We have no snow but
for week the fog has been so deep from the hour
when daylight should appear until noon, that the
sun was not visible. Afternoons during the same
time warm and delightful as June, and instead Of
signing winter winds, biting, white frost every
night
FRUIT TREEs.-Nurserymen are notified that
the time to advertise their trees, shrubs and plants
has come. Over 10000 fruit trees were set out

manifested in fruit raising the experiment has
been tried, proving that for apples, pears, plums,
grapes, currants, etc, there is no better climate,
and no country in the world where trees sooner
/ mature or are more lavishly productive. There
fore we say to nurserymen make known what
"A you have to sell ; especially all new varieties of
4 trees.
SERVED HIM RIGHT Snodgrass remarked at
Che supper table the other night, that old Posse
Il uatame Brown deserved hanging for not making
better use of the physiognomical facilities with
which nature had provided him, with little ad-
dition He had seen the portrait of Brown as
given by Frank Leslie, and thought if the old
man had only attached pair of horns in the APP
Il propriate place, he might have frightened every
negro from the Southern States without blood

fore Justice Clegg on Tuesday, to answer the
complaint of one McQuiggen, who averred that

with Ratchet causing sundry wounds and pain
iul results. The jury hung" and the proceed
/ ing of law is to be repeated to-day, (Friday)
der for heavy teams since the last rain, but be-
tween the frost and sunshine of the past week is

cles all winter it adds immeasurably to the bus
