HON. ANDREW JOHNSON.

This gentleman reached his home
on Sunday last in good health, and
earnest in the support Of Breckenridge
and Lane as the nominees Of the
National Democracy. No man has
done more to give ascendency to
the Democracy in Tennessee than
Andrew Johnson, and no man will
enter more heartily into this canvass
to preserve its ascendency than be
will. We know that the people Of
every portion of the State would ba
delighted to hear him, and We trust it
will suit both bis pleasure and con-
venience to give them an opportunity
of doing so.-NasariRe Union aid

The HopkinsviIle (Ky.) Press,

The HopkinssilIe (Ky.) Press, q
democratic journal, in it's issue Of
June 30th, one week after the nom
ination Of John G. Breckintidge, had
not yet been able to make up his
mind whe Their it would support Brock
inridge, or Douglas. 10 the same
issue the editor offers his establish
ment for sale. We should think it
would be the best policy for Ken
lucky editor who required more than
a week to make up his mind whether
he woald support John c. Breckin'
ridge or not, to sell out, and if he
couldn't sell out to "dry up" and
quit.-ClarkspiAe J0ersoman.
That's so!-and the same rule
applies in Tennessee. In the Ian

King Of Belgium, at Lacken, near Brus-

presence Of the professors of the yeterna-

W Altering Trees.

More trees are destroyed, yearly, than
saved by injudicious watering. Many per-
sons pour pailful after pailrul of cold water
around the roots Of newly planted trees,
during the early part Of the season; their
object being to assist the tree by supplying
the moisture, to force out its buds and
leaves to vigorous growth The result is
more often to create disease and rapid de-
cay in the root, to drown the young fbres,
and by keeping the ground wet and cold,
produce death. Better hoe around the tree
every other night, just at sundown, and let
the watering alone. The former practice
will destroy the tree, the latter will save it.
