4 he Color of Flowers Promoted by
CharSOal.

A French ameieur. in the Paris Horticultu-
raj Review. states: About a year ago made
a bargain for a ruse-bush OF magnificent
growth, ard full of buds. | waited for them
to bloom, and | expected roses worthy OF
such noble plant, and OF the praise bestow-
ed upon ii by the vrndcr. At length, when
it bloomed. all nv hopes were blasted. The
flowers were of a faded color, and discover
ed that had only middling multifora, stale
cOlOred enough. l therefore resolved 10
sacrifice it to some experiments which | had
iii view. Ny attention had been cdptivated
with the effects OF charcoal. as stated in some
English publications. | then covered the
earth lin The pot i'll which my rosebud was)
about half an inch deep with pulyeriZed
charcoal. Some days after, | WAS aslonished
to see the rose which bloomed of as fac a
lively rose cIlOr as l could wish. / de-
trrmlned to repeat the experiment.; and,
Therefore, when the rose-bush had done
towering, | took off the charcoal and put
fresh earth on the pot. You may conceive
that waited for the next spring impatirnily
10 zee the result of this experiment. When
1t bloomed, the roses were, as at first, pale
and discolored; but by applying the char
coal as before. they soon resumed their rosy
red COLOR. / tried the powdered charcoal
lik wise in large quantities upon my petuniHs
aud fou d thai both the white and the violet
flowers were equally sensible to its action.
1t always gave great vigor to the red or
violet colors OF the flowers, and the white
petunias brcame veiued with red or violet
tints. The violets (cOlors) became covered
with Irregular spots of a blush or s.lmos:
black tint. Many persons who admired
them thought they were new varieties from
seed. Yellow flowers are, as l have proved.
insrnsible TO the influence of the charcoal"

prospective Reunion Of the m. T..
Church.


Since 1874 it is known that there has been
a breach Of Fellowship between the commuui-
cants of the Methodist Episcopal Church
North and South, growing out of the slavery
question. This estrangement between them
has been of such character az to weaken
both branches of the Church, and has LESSEN
cd their fundamentally for good very ma
terially. a movement is now on foot to re-
unite the two branches, which bids fair to
he successful.
Ii is but another phase of that feeling which
we hope. is now last assuming place in
the minds of Christians and patriots of union
and l'rothcrly love TO the overthrow of Sec
,ionalism and bigotry. The Local Preach
ers Association of the NJ. E. Church., was
organized in October, 1858. in this city
This Association settled The Slavery question
at its frst meeting. by adopting rule "pro-
hibitiug the discussion Of any sectional SUBJ

standing rules. The S. cond meeting of the
Association Was held in baltimore last Oclo-
Der land was nunIerously attended by Dele
e ties from all paris Of the Union. The
meeting was a very harmonious one. and
went far towards establishing Christian
intercourse between the North and South.
The next meeting will be held in Phiadel-
phia, next October. The chief Object of these
annual meetings is to bring local preachers
from every Conference t"gci her, 10 encourage

THE PITIsBURG LETTER.-The following is
