cadence Of American freedom will date from
that period when the judgment OF the Judi
ciary shall be controlled by political parties,
to believe that the American people will
ever lend their sanction to the views either
of Mr.. Seward or Of the party of which be
seems to be the acknowledged leader.
The minority of the Committee would,
therefore, recommend the adoption Of the
resolutions as originally presented to the
Senate, copy Of which is hereto attached.
All of which is respectfully submitted.
VIM. SPRIGG HALL,
Minority Of Com. on Federal Relations.
Concurrent Resolutions of the Legislature of
the State of Minnesota on the subject OF the
Recent Insurrection at Harper's Ferry, in
Virginia.
WHEREAS, Public attention has recently been
directed to an unprovoked attempt made to
disturb the peace and safety Of sister State,
ry and servile war, subversive Of law, and Sc.
ditious in its character. and reasonable in all
it's tendencies and aspects; and
WHEREAS, 1t is eminently fitting for all good
citizens, and especially for those in whose wis.
dom and patriotism State Legislation is placed,
and whose duty it becomes to support the
Constitution of these United States, and of the
State whose Representatives they are, to ex-
press in decided terms their condemnation of
all fuch insHrrecti0nary movements, and to de.
precate all sympathy or collision with trea-
sonable men; therefore,
Resciued By the Legislature of the State of
Minnesota, That we recognize the Constitution
of the United States as the paramount law of
the land, which, to secure the blessings Of lib
erty to ourselves and our p0sterity, must be
maintained with fidelity; and that every at
tempt to assail its compromises, evade its re-
quirements, or subvert its character, should be
reprobated by every true American.
RESOLVED, That under the Constitution, the
citizens of one State cannot interfere with the
domestic institutions of another State and
that any such interference is an attack upon
the peace, safety, and dignity of every State in
the Union. and that we denounce with indigna-
ton and abhorance, not only the reasonable
participators in the recent invasion of the soil
Of Virginia, at Harper's Ferry, but all others
who by sustaining, excusing or palliating the
ofense, aid and comfort instruction and sedi-
ton.
RESOLVED, That Minnesota renews to Vir.
gina, and to the several States of the Union,
her assurances of fealty to the Constitution
and her desire to cherish and perpetuate the
sentiments of friendship and union incucated
by Washington and his illus .ri0us compatriots
and that she confidently claims in return, from
every other State, or geographical division,
that f0rbearance and moderation on sectional
issues, which shall best maintain and transmit
to future ages the priceless Inheritance of our
glorious C0nfederacy.
RESOLVED, That the Governor Of Minnesota
be requested to transmit q copy of these Reso-
luti0ns, and the Preamble thereto, to the Gov
ernOrs of each of the several States of the
Union.

A SUGAR plantation was purchased in St.
James, parish, La, q few days ago BY Mr..
BURNSIDE, q dry goods merchant-of New
Orleans, for 100000. This says the New
Orleans Delta, is considered splendid
investment, as there are some seven or eight
thousand acres in the tract, and under good
management it ought to produce two thou

will swell the Investments Of Mr.. BURNsrDs,

fetal. This, | think; is very evident
from,the fact that limestone soils are al
most invariably productive of all kinds OF
fruit. Think never saw an orchard
planted on limestone soil but was very
productive, unless there was something
very unfaVorable to the growth OF the
trees. Lime will. in the main, promote
in an astonishing degree the flower.
ing and fruiIing of Almost all plants,
because cAlsareous salts promote evapo-
rarion and lhs concentration Of the sap.--
Air slaked lime is an exc llent manure
for fruit trees, as top dressing. or If spa
dcd in around the tree, il will render il
much more fruitful. where the soil is not
too calcareous by nature. But. in all ca
ses in the nse Of lime, care should be ia.
ken not to use it in too great quantities.
Another benefit derived from the use of
lime around fruit trees, is the fac, of it's
seriously affecting more or less al kinds
Of worms aud insects that infest the apple
tree. Most Of the ,vermin that annoy
fruit trees in the summer, remain in ths
ground during the winter. A quantity of
lime spaded in around the roots of the
tree willhaye good effect toward destroy
ing the canker'worm, # applied in season
and'a small mound of lime around the
collar Of the tree will prevent the ravages
Of the borsr, which almost always enters
the tree in the tender bark near the
ground. ..-H. ..... .... ~
The result Of my observation and sx-
perience, therefore, is that lime is good
and beneficial on all soils calcareous ones,
that il will greatly assist in destroying all
'ermin that harbor in the ground under
che tree. and all that is equally injurious
when applied to the ba.k, as il stops the
