THE strike among the New England
working men has been hailed with immense
satisfaction by certain class of small poll
ticians- They profess to greet it rs proof
that the working men of the North are in
no better condition than the slaves of tile
South, and are greatly rejoiced at the imagi-
nary parallel.
II single grain of common sense could
enter into this flunkeyism, one would sup
pose that the strike of the Northern laborer
marked the most striking distinction between
laborers and slaves. When the negroes can
strike for higher wageso or for aew employers;
it will be time enough to draw theparaIlel.

Pudding Tree Rootu.

We find the following suggestions in the
American AgrieulturiSt. They may be of sd-
vantage at this season Of the year to those who
set out trees
For nurserynen and others who have much
planting to do, this is practice of great imPor-
lance. And this is the Wsy: Dig hole in the
central part Of your garden, two fact deep, and
five feet In diameter, choosing a spot where the
soil is quite stiff. If no such soil can be bad,
the sides and bottom Of the hole must be pias
tered with thick coating Of clay. Now, fill
the hole two-thirds full Of water, throw IN
few shove full Of soil, stirring it up with hoe
as you proceed, until it is Of the consistency of
cream. Some persons recommend throwing in
q shovel or two Of COW dung. A tub or half
hogshead sunk in the soil will answer the puT-
pose Of pudding hole, where 8 permanent
one is desired.
On digging up trees, shrubs, OF any kind Of
plants, dip their roots in this cream and stir
them about until every part is well covered
On taking them out sprinkle some fine soil
over them, and set them away in the shade
The trees may then be set cut at leisure, or they
may be transported . great stance before
planting. Whether set out at once, or after
several days, this pudding will be greatly to
their advantage. A little care may be neees-
saTy in setting out, TO see that the 6bres Of the
roots are not matted tSgether. They should all
be spread out in their natural position.

ABusiness ouaker

The QuAkeFs are, in the main, a. every one
knows, . thrifty, kind-heartsd. and undoubt-
edly honest people; but in some of them, even
as ameng the worlds honest psople," love Of
filthy lucrs will predomiDste. In Ons of their
farming communities lived friend Benjamin and
his son. II was their custom TO buy up cattle
to fsttea for sale. One day Beujsmm, Jr, had
selected chO;cs portion Of stock from pas,
sing drove, and was about TO buy when Benja-
min, Sen, came along.
"FatheT, am about to buy these cattle; what
dost thee think Of themi
what does he ask So muehl I guess
theell get them for less; offer him $500 and
wait till morning If be don't trade"
Filial Ben assented-msde an offer 10 vain
vent heme with the Old gentleman-Slspt-
and next morning, sftsT caring for the stock,
mounted his horse to.try sgain TO buy the cat
tie. But on the way, he met Benjamin, Sen,
returning home with the whole herd in ques-
ton. BsnjEmin, SEN, Wss wealthy as well as
smATt-he had taken an early start and bought
the lot.
'Ths will let me have my portion, will thee
nOtl" asked fiial Ben.
''No, sonny, of course not; I've bought the
Whole-WEnt 'em ell.
what Isnt that hard trick to play by
own sOni and trusted 10 theel"
"Ah, Benny" said Pster famiiES, reproVing.
y, "thee must be sharp and wide awake; trust
nobody, benjamini watch everybody; watch
thy father, Benjamin; watch thy athor!"
Quite likely for young Benjamin admonition
was needless thenceforWard.-[Phila. Press
