Dwarf Apple Trees.

Five years hence, the dwarf apple will be
more popular than at present. This mode Of
culture possesses one great advantage over the
dwarf pear, namely, all the different varieties
of apples succeed well propagated as dvarfs;

and flourish. We placed at the same time in
adjacent rows, over hundred varieties Of each,

A letter from Hattera5 Inlet, 18th, says:
We learn that North Carolina, by a Con-
vention Of delegates representing 45 coun-
ties, has declared a Provisional Govern
ment, and has entirely repudisted the Sc
cession act of the State, reafhrming her
loyalty and devotion to the laws of the
United States.
The Convention met at Hatteras on last
Monday.
The act passed contained several SEQ
tions, the substance of which is: The 1st
declares vacant all the offices of the State.
The I'd names Marble Nash Taylor ProYis

stitution Of the State, with the statutes and
laws contained in the revised code Of 1856
The 4th repudiates the ordinance of seces.

together with all other acts then adopted
The 9th dirests the Provisional Governor
to order special election for members of

authority TO make temporary appointments

adjourned, subject to the call of the Presi-

The latter vessel apparently got the worst

a hot and telling fire from the former.
