Trees in the Flower esrdsn.

Many persons with small gardens are so de-
sirnus Of having everything in them that they
have nothing. They are too greedy. They
should not expect to be able TO grow every
variety of fruitsiand vegetables on half an acr-
Of ground and have plenty of room for flowers
besides. II trees will be planted in the gar
dens of these persons so closely that il is diff
cult to pass between them. Then vegetables
and flowers are planted beneath them, and all
are expected to grow, fourisng and bring
forth abundantly. Now it is we'll to get as
much as possible out of your garden, but this
course IS the very one calculated to destroy all
prOductiveness. Give your trees plenty Of
room, cultivate the soil under them, but do
not plant vegetables right up TO the trunks
Of them. Or you will ha e no benefit from Ell
ther. Now trees with delicate towering
plants about them may do well enough, but
the plants will not. They need sun, air, and
spstenance from the earth which the trees
appropriate. Unless you feel liberal enough
to devote some portion of your ground solely
to flowers, ii is better not TO attempt their
cultivation at ali. The most appropriate To-
cation of the flower garden is Immediately
ahQHt the house, but if trees and shrubbery
are desired there for the purpose of shade ian
end, by the way, much better accomplished
by means OF Broad projecting corpices ard
liberal pidzzas), then the flower beds must
be made beyond the belt, There are few
flowers which do better in the shade than in
the sun, but a general rule, they love the full
sunlight. Nerbenas PortuIacca, Pheox Drum
mond;i, aud nearly the whole tribe Of annuals,
cannot have too much of it. Many of the
herbaceous perennials will succeed pretty well
in the shade and drip of trees, but they are al
most the only plants that will.
Let the flower garden then remain clear Of
trees, or nearly 50, aud let those plants which
are better for partial shading from the sun be
planted near the trees, so as to be in their
shade but not under their drip G. B. H.,

THE TALENT OF SUCCESS.

Every man must patieptly abide bis time
He must wait. Not in listless idieaess. not in
useless pastime, not in querulous detection;
but in constant. steady cheerful endeavor, al
ways willing, fulfilling and accomplishing his
task, "Ihat when the occasion comes he may
be equal to tho occasion" The talent of sue
cess is nothing more than doing what you
can do well, without thought of fame.
If comes at all, it will come because it is
deserved, +. not because it is sought after. II
is a very indiscreet and Troublesome ambition
(which cares so much about fame, about what
the world says of us, as to he always looking
in the face of others for approval, to be always
anxious about the effect of what we do or say
TO be always shouting to hear the echoes Of
our own yoices.-Lo Longfeilow.

Cover and Grasses Enrich the Soil.

The Maine Farmer well remarks:
"Plowing under a thick. heavy grass
sward furnishes an ample manuring
for several successful grain crops
The decomposition Of the abundant
roots and stems Of the grass supplies
nutrition for gro Eths Of a different
character, and having greater mon
ey value to the farmer. Hence it may
be good policy for the farmer to give
a large share of his labor and atten-
ton to producing a a heavy growth
of grass on all lands when devoted to
this crop, knowing that this most
cheaply and effectively prepares his
soil for the production of other
crops This is true, especially in
the case Of clover.

Poor Maryland''-'P Poor virginia" !"

The Baltimore Clipper somewhat indignant
ly refers to JEFF. DAVIS message, in which the
permanent President" avails himself of the
opportunity of giving word for poor Mary
land" while at the very moment of receiving
his address the Marylanders were receiving ad-
vices from the Upper Potomac that their
troops were crossing over the river into poor
Virginia" on their way TO drive JEFF from his
Capital When the war is over, and inciden-
tai costs begin to be reckoned. the relative po-
sitions of Maryland and Virginia will be SUCH
as TO warrant sober meditation. Maryland has
suffered comparatively nothing as a State,
while the whole territory of Virginia-the sa-
cged soil-bas been devastated and stripped of
everything eatable and drinkable, even as the
locusts proved upon Egypt. No State in the
bogus Coniederacy will have received half the
damage that is being visited upon the Old Do
minion. And it is but just tlat she should
most severely suffer. She had il in her power
to save herself, as Maryland was saved, by the
loyalty of her Executive; but she went to her
destruction with open eyes, too proud, too
weak, too ignorant too vain, top selfish, to
shield herself against the wild and Yillainous
plans of those who righteousIy selected her to
bear the brunt of the rebel campaign as
punishment for her tardiness in hosting the
standard of rebellion. Even her sister States
in treason condemn Lnr for coward, while
the loyal States have no tear of compassion
to shed oyer her desolated fel4s and ruined
cities.
Maryland, more than any other State in the
Union, has cause to feel proud of her loyalty.
She was no less surrounded 10y rebel sympathy
than was Virginia, but she gallanty STOOD
firm to 10 the flag of the Union, and on FRI
day lest, the following resolution vas present
ed tc the House of Delegates by Baltimore
member, and adopted amidst enthusiastic ac-
claim:
ResoECed by the General assembly, That we
feel it to be, hot more ali act of duty than OF
profound satisfaction, 10 express for ourselves,
and in behalf Of the public whose represen-
tatiyes we are, our heartfelt thanks to each
and all those gallant defenders Of the Con-
siitution and Laws of the United States, by
land and sea, who have recently, by their un-
surpassed heroism, augmented the glory of
American citizenship; and through the sub
lime lessons of victories won by lortitude and
courage above all praise, have assured US be
yond peradventure that our Government is es-
tablished in the hearts of the masses, securely
resting upon the solid foundation Of virtue and
patriotism.
