Dwarf Cherry Trees.

These are, IN our opinion, destined 20
be the trees Of the West. The long,
naked trunk Of the standard cherry is lily
suited to battle with the sudden extreme
changes Of the weather Of OUT Western
States, and as a consequence, cherries are
among the scsrcest Of our Western fruits.
Trees Of a few years planting only, if
not decayed and dead, look as Scared
and manned veterans who have passed
through the storm battles of many WIZ
fers, and are now lingering sad monu-
ments of their career, amid the closing
scenes of a life of conflict and trials
Such facts afford little encouragement for
the continued pl1nting Of sudh trees, and
unless a remedy of some kind is adopted,

There are two remedies which viii, N
a great degree, arrest the evils flowing
from our climate. One is, growing the

employing dwarfs only. The first requl-
res more attention and skill than most
persons viii give, and viii therefore be
adopted only by the amateur, who confines
himself to a few trees more. for pleasure

so that the branches protect the trunk
with the utmost ease. They bear the
second Or third } year from the bad, and
prOdnce full crops IN four or FIVE years.
They should be planted about eight feet
apart, though by occasionally root pruning
them, they may be planted as closely to-
gelher as Eve feet. We prefer, however,
allowing them to attain greater size, and
planting them eight feet apart. In rich
soils the borer requires looking after.

The Morello class Of cherries embraces
now some very fine varieties. and mOrel-

they are particularly suited to the West

may confess, with rebuke. She was

things she was afar of and above me-
Two years before, she had worldly goods
and troops Of friends; now, she was poor,
neglected, forgotten by maryland yet,
she had risen to higher place, and was
happier. She had been down In the val
ley, and assembled on the farther side -
and they who wOuld live the higher,
purer, better life that she IS living, must
go down also.
There are some, who, IN prayer and
self-den;al, 90 down Of themselves into
the valley Of humiliation; 60 down, we
mean, without the compelling power Of
affection or misfortune; and these ascend
on the mountain side. Reader, will you

be extirPated from the gardens Of our
hearts, before heavenly plants can grow

Dwarf annie Trees.

Five years hence, the dwarf apple vii
be more popular Than at present. This
mode Of culture possesses one great ad-
vantage over the dwarf pear, namely. al
the different varieties OF apples succeed
well propagated as dWarfs, while with the
pear, but few cOntnue 10 grow and four
ish. We placed at the anne time IN ad-
jacent rows, over a hundred Tarieiies Of
each, selecting 50 far as was pTactieable,
those pears that grow best on The quihcss
but Of course, taking many IN 50 large q
lumber that were quite unsuiiable-a
prominent object being experiment. They
have beth now grown four SINNERS SINCE
uansplantiug wTh the following result:
As was expected. the pears have be-
come much ihinned in the row, = part by
unsuitableness, and a part By blight,
while many are s:unied and feeble. "A
considerable portion, embracing such sorts
as the Bufun. Hardy, SupeThne, Wink
field, Angouleme, etc, are in q vigorous
state Of growth, and bear abundanlly.-
This uneven result might have been
guarded against BY the selection Of such
sorts only as are here named, liable, how
ever, at all times 10 the blight.
On the other hand nearly every apple
tree ferns a fine. thrifty, bearing trees,
and the rows present a beautiful and uni
form appearance. A part are on Para
disc, and part on Doucin stock The
former are about five feet high, and most
Of them, this fourth year, have borne
from a peck to a half bushel Of fine fruit,
and some a bushel. The trees worked
on the Douctn, are six 10 seven feet high,
and only part have borne much, being
larger and more rapid In growth and less
fruitful while young, but doubtless more
productive afterwards because larger.
The soil is a very fertile and strong loan,
and has been well cultivated. On a poor
OF thin soil we should not look for equal
success. We recommend, unhesilatingly,
TO all who wish to grow apples in gar
dens, TO plant and cultivate dwarfs.
Where trees eight or ten feet are desir-
ed, select the Doucin as a stock; where
the ground is more limited, and smaller
trees are preferred, choose the Paradise.

AT this time the excitement and confusion was
so great that it was difficult to hear anything that
was said
MIR. Randall moved an amendment, substituting
Philadelphia as the place, and the 4th of July as
the time.
MIR. Ludlas, of New York moved to insert Nau,

Randall's substitute was also rejected bv yeas Ss

When the motion to adjourn to Baltimore was
made, Mr.. Mason, of Kentucky, raised the point of
order that the resolution must lie over one day.
Inc PRESIDENT, however, decided differently and
the order for balotting having been suspended, by
ayes l99; nays oil, RussePs resolution adopted,
by ayes 1885, nays So. 1t is in the following words:
ReSolred That when this Convention adjourn it he to

the States that are not represented an opportunity
to fill up their delegations
Mr.. Stuart, of Michigan, moved that the Conven-
tiOn adjourn.

slastlcally.
Mr. Miles, of Maryland, hoped arrangements
would be made for printing the official proceed
ings.
Mr.. Gushing, the President, addressed the Con-
vention Notwithstanding the deep and conflict
ing interests involved he might say that no Con-
vention. having such immense interests at stake,
had ever sat for so great length of time with the
observance OF so great share of order and free
dom from personalities offensive language He
mad endeavoled most impartally and honestly to
fulfil the duties of the chair, and if in the excite
ment of the moment he had been led to use any
abrupt language to gentlemen, he humbly apollo
glzed. He regarded this Convention as not only
having In its destiny the permanence of the Demo-
cratic party, but the question whether these great
United States should continue and endure. He
would not, however, relinquish the hope that the
Union would continue on to eternity, and he felt
confident the Convention would adjourn to-day
with the determination to do all in their power to
restore harmony and confidence.
Mr Brent, of Baltimore, extended a cordial invi-
tation to the Democracy of the Union to accept the
hospitalities of that city.
The Convention then adjourned about 10 o'clock,
and the delegates rushed in hot haste to the de-
pots.
1t is said the Douglas men voted for the adjourn
ment under instructions from Washington.

WASHINGTON, May 3.-The Senate is not in seq
sion to-day.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
Mr.. LAKE presented a communication from Mr.
Chanee, the Librarian of the House. calling atten-
ton to the injury to about seventy thousand vol
umes of public documents, now stored away in the
damp vaults of the Capitol and suggesting that a
part OF the old Hall of Representatives be fitted up
for their reception.-Mr. LAKE, after the paper
was read, submitted resolution in order to carry
out the suggestion of the librarian..-Mr PEY-
TON remarked that the Committee on Public
Buildings and Grounds have the subject in charge
ana believed they can make better arrangements
than occupying the old Hall of Representatives.
The matter was referred to that committee.-
Mr.. SHERMAN made suggestion to early ac-
tion on the Tariff Bill-Mr. COBB said he want
Union generally, but desired to wait until
alter the Charleston Convention acted
IT that Convention should be turned ont to

dice, and constituted the stock-in-trade of the

OF Republican Presdent.--The committee rose
and the House adjourned.

The BBLE-BURNING AT BoGoTA.-The Star and
Herald newspaper, published at Panama, New
Granada, on the Sth of February last contained a
statement to the effect that, by order of the Catho
lie clergy, all the Bibles which had been sold among
the people of Bogota by branch of the London
Bible Society collected and burnt, with great
ceremony, in the Public Square. The narrative
then alleged that ''the United States minister
General Jones, countenaneed the outrage by being
present at the ceremony;" and added "Mr. Jones
we believe, is Roman Catholic, and his bigotry
on this occasion appears to have led him to commit
an act which should cause his immediate recall :"
As the statements referred to have been copied ex-
tensivey in the papers of this country it is deemed
an act of simple justice to the minister of the United
States to give an authoritative denial to the charge
made against him. We understand that it is known
officially to the Department of State that, so far
from being present at the ceremony, General Jones
was ignorant both of the act and the intention to
commit it, and strongly condemned it to the Pope's
lnternuncio after the occurrence was made known
to him. In respect to the charge of ''bigotry''
made against Mr.. Jones in the same article, it ap-
pears proper to state that, whatever may be Mr.
Joness ecclesiastical affinities, he has, since his
residence in BOgota, maintained attitude, at
least, of impartiaty in regard to the external OBJ
servance Of the ordinances of Protestant and Catho
lie churches Washington Constitution.
