Pears on Apple Stocks.

Not having noticed any account OF
pears being grated upon apple, and
having experimental with them my
self for the past three years, / thought
! I.would give you the result of my ex-
perience. Three years ago / had some
pear scions given to me by friend,
and not having many suitable pear
stocks, / grated them upon an apple
tree which had failed to yield any fruit
with the kindest nursing. They grew
very rapidly that season, and were
loaded with pears, so that / found it
necessary to pull of'many to save the
gratis. i do not see why pears graft
ed in this way will not do as well as
when grated in theusual names, par
ticularly if the scion be inserted at or
near the surface of the ground, as
have frequently done since with mark
ed success. ] do not recommend this
plan in preference to pear stocks, but
as they are hot as readily obtained il
will be well to have some grated in
this way, and experience may prove it
TO be q profitable mode Of graffing---

STAMPS ON NOTES AND RECEIPTS
By the new Internal Revenue law,
approved June 3Oth, 1864, which goes
into operation 1st of August, receipts
for the payment of any debt due, ex-
ceoding twenty dollars, not being for
the satisfaction of any mortgage, or
Judgment, or decree of any court, and
receipt for the delivery of any prop.
erty are made liable to stamp tax of
two oeuts, and by the same law every
bank check, draft or order for the pay
ment of any sum of money whatsoever,
drawn upon any bank, banker or trust
company, or for any sum exceeding ten
dollars drawn upon any other person
or persons, companies or corporations,
at sight or on demand, is also made lia-
bic to stamp tax of two cents. The
provision taxing receipts is new iu this
country, though 1t has long been in use
in England. The tax on bank checks,
drafts, &C., is extended to all checks,
as well those under as those above
twenty dollars.

MAJOR GENERAL SIoKLEs, lifelong
Democrat, raised his voice in New Or
leans the other day against the "ai isto-
cratic element" Of the South, that
brought on this war, and said:
eff it is successful, then it will extend
itself throughout the length and breadth
of this continent, and stamp everywhere
the acts, the policy, the administration
and the government of this eountry,
Labor no longer will be its own mas
ter. Labor will be no longer entitled
to choose its own representatives. Linn.
tied suffrage, restricted education, and
all the ideas directly antagonistical to
American ideas, will become the ordin:
ary and accepted principles, domina-
ting in our society, and controlling this
continent"

Tools for Boys.

1t is too often the case that farmers
boys are put off with old tools,-heavy
and rusty hoes, old forks, the poorest
and Oldest scythe, and a dull axe
because he 30 only boy, and can learn
with them just as well as any thing;
"cap't do much work any how"
Now, this is not right. A boy will
do as much more work in proportion to
his strength as man, if he has tools
suited to his years. Provide your boys
with nice, light, well tempered tools
and you will find him taking hold of
his task cheerfully and also see that he
has pride in taking care of his inn
plements. Boys thus provided will
grow up and become men of thrift and
enterprise; they will see the mistaken
policy Of attempting to accomplish any
great work without proper pre-requi-
sites.
Give him also n small piece of land
that he may till for himself, and have
the proceeds thereof You will find
that he will be anxious to realize as
great profit as possible, and this will
cause him to study the character of
plants, and the nature of the soil, and
and to read and inform himself in his
pursuits. Do not allow your boys to
overwork, for in this there is no econ
omy. 1t is better to pay heavily for
hired help. Learn them to be industri.
GUS. Give them encouragement-it
will make many dull boy bright, and
injure no one. Kindnesses in this line
will not be forgotten-your sons will
remember you when you are old.

WHAT SHALL WE EAT? is an impor-
tant question in these times of high
prices. DIR. Hall, in late number
ofhis Journol of 4 eaM-good author
ity, py the way-say the cheapest art
icls of food at present. prices are bread
Especially corn meaD. butter, molasses
beans and RICE. EIe shows 25 cents
worth. of' -four. at 8 cents per pound,
contains as much nourishmcnt as 1925
worth of roast beef at 25 cents per lb;
and that pint of white, beans, costing
Z cents has the same amount Of nutri-
ment as 3tpounds of beef'at 25 cents
per pound, or, in other words, the roast
beef dit is twslvs times as expensive a.
the beans. Furthermore, a pound Of
Indian meal will go as far as pound of
fine flour, costing rearly twice as much.
Here are some Of the common articles
offood, showing the amout ofnutriment
contained, and the time required for.

KINDNESS TO ANIMALs.---Ge entleness,
like charity, is twice blessed-the effects
of which on the animals around the
homestead are scarcely less noticeable
than upon the family ofyour household.
No man can be truly kind to the latter
without letting his cattle feel the infu-
enpe of his spirit. Soft words and kind
looks turn away wrath among cattle as
among mankind. Harshness has its
curse in the hatred which the brute
beasts feel, though they cannot utter
their scorn except in occasional kicks or
bites, and by general ugliness as it is
called. An ear of corn, or q little salt,
or lock of hay, even kind look or a
gentle action, such as petting your horse
has influence more or less in making
your appearance always a source of
pleasure to the animals around you.-
1t is a cheap luxury, this, of rendering
the brute beasts around your home
stead happy.

Speech Of Andy Johnson at Knox.
vile.

We think the following extract from
Mr.. Johnson's speech to his fellow-cit-
izens at Knoxville, some time since,
will be read with new interist, now that
his name is presented to the people as
a cannidate for the Office of Vice-Presi-
dent. For glowing patriotism and
thrilling eloquence it is rarely equal
led:
"The time has arrived when treason
must be made odious, when traitors
mnst be punished-impoverished; their
property taken from them, whether it
be their houses, their lands, or their
negroes, and given to the innocent, the
honest, the loyal, upon whom the cal
antilles of this unprovoked and wicked
rebellion have fallen with crushing and
cruel weight. Ii is easy to utter mere
bombast, but am not uttering bonn
bast. You know me. You know
something of what have done for you
for Tennessee-for East Tennessee.
But will not speak of that.
eff have made sacrifices, if have
endured sufferings, if l have undergone
huiNSnipS, 81 lct IL DS. UOu STdut tlaC
l may have helped you again. But you
must help yourselves. You must. Join
hands with me and with one another
and swear to do what / have already
told YOU must be done-to make treas
on odious, this he said with tremendu-
Gus emphasis and to make traitors suf-
fer, as you have suffered, as pour wiver
apd children have suffered, as your
country, has suffered,
"What has brought this war upon
US? Let me answer in one word; let
me speak so loud that the deafest man
in this crowd can hear me; Slavery
Hundreds of voices-.sThats so."@
That's Gods truth."1 Men talk about
the Constitution and State rights
They sneer at the emancipation procla-
nation. and call it a tyrannical assum-
ton of authority, despotic usurpation
of power, Listen to what now say:
All such talk is the language of treason.
But am not here to discuss the uncon-
stitutionality of slavery or the constitu-
tionality of the Presidents proclamation
of freedom.

One of the late Governors of
South Carolina was splendid lawyer
and could talk jury out of their seven
senses. He was especially noted for
success in criminal cases, almost always
clearing his client. He was once coun.
sci for q man accused ofhorse stealing.
He made long, touching and eloquent
speech. The jury retired, but returned
in few minutes and proclaimed the
man not guilty. An old acquaintance
stepped pp to the prisoner and said,
"Jim the danger lis past; and nowl
honor bright, did you steal the horse or
not?" To which Jim replied, "Wen
Tom, I've all along thought took the
horse; hut since I've heard the Gov
ernor's speech I don't believe l did,"
