Pendleton? We are dealing with him as
a public man. lt is the record. in Con
greSs and out of Congress at al times and
IN all places from the beginning to this
day, OF a consistent, constant, inveterate
and Jealous sympathizer with The cause
of the rebellion. From his Congressional
record during this war we may safely say
that, had his vote On all important test
questions been the casting vote in the
House, volunteering and drafting to I'll
our wasted armies would have ceased; the
pay OF our brave soldiers, their subsis-
tence, clothing and transportation would
ha been stopped our gallant Union he
roes on the land and water wou have
been abandoned to the tender meroies of
jeff. Davis, and this dav we should have
had a Southern confederacy, and a war
with England and France, for remnant
OF the Union, in fall blast This is the
difficulty with the Democratic Presiden-
tial ticket Can it be possible that Mr.
Belmont entertains so light an estimate of
the intelligence of the American people rs
to tlatter himself with the delu.iou that
Mr.. Pendleton has now on to remain
silent TO escape unscathed? No sir. His
silence is understood a. n trick ard its
object as dangerous deception. The
loya voters of the North understand this
thing is invol ing the use of a Union sol
der name for II treacherous purpose, n
debasing capitulGtior to defeated rebel
lion, which will make this people stink in
the noStrlls even Of poor unfortunate Mex
leo.
Our advice, therefore, to Mr. Belmont,
as the head of the Democratic National
Executive Committee, is that he should
forthwith exercise the power with which
he was invested at hiCago, and call to
gether again the national party con ention,
for the express purpose of setting aside
George II. Pendleton as a'bad stick of tim
ber, and of putting in his place sound
and acceptable Union man as the proper
associate of General Mcclellan. We pre-
sumo that Mr. Belmont has finished his
financial business as the agent of Louis
Napoleon for the support Of Macmillan
on his Mexican throne and has the time
to spare to consider this case of Mr. PEN
dleton. If not we hazard the prediction
that, pOlitica ly and financia ly, Mr. Bel
mont Will be more unlnckv with his in
ve-tments in General Ne lelIan than he
was with the betrayed and unfortunate
Dougss And thus endeth the first les
son.

BUSHES.

Bushes should never be allowed to
grow in moving fields. 1t is often
that we see large and dense "elumps''
or ''patches" Of bushes, and even
small trees, interspersed with bushes,
growing up in moving grounds, OF
BY the sides of fences, where they oc-
ceupy land to no advantage, and op
crate detrimentally upon the useful
vegetation through the influence of
both branches and, roots. Vigorous
plantations of briars and bushes are
often seen vegetating in the corners
of cultivated fields, as well as thistles
and other deleterious productions
around stones and stumps.
No'corect farmer will permit his
fields to be defaced by so sloveniy a
practice. stn 90 Jsff ffB

FRUIT AND WOO.

There are two principles about
fruit trees; the growth Of fruit and
the growth of wood. 1t is the fruit
growers business to attend to these
and see they are properly directed
1t is in his power to divert the growth
fhe wishes. He has the reins ofthe
sap, so to speak, in his hands. 1t is
his business when the tree is young,
to grow all the wood he can. But
when the time for bearing has come
(and that may come early,) he must
give the reins turn, and direct the
reins Of the tree to growing fruit
To this end, he is to pinch off the tips
ofits main shoots, of all the shoots,
if he wishes a general and generous
bearing. This will have tendency
to develop fruit spur; the trees at
tention is directed towards maternity
Next year there will be prospect
of fruit if the thing is not prematurely
done; the tree cannot bear before it

~A contemporary has well said
that there is never right to destroy
a just and legitimate government
IF the opposite were true, nothing
would be safe. The right of rebellion
exists only In cases of persistent
tyranny or llegitimacy. When, the
principle of freedom goes beyond
this it degenerates into license
There are facts it is never legal to
impggn, and just and legitimate gov
ernmentis eof them" Judged by
this sounddoctrine, how utterly indie
fensible is The present rebellion. The
Government, of the country never
infringed upon a single right of the
Southern States. The rebellion, in
sober truth, was without shadow Of
justification. Most of the States
engaged mit.were really apecuniary
burden, and yet the Government
cheerfiiiy yliquidated every ebliga-
tion arising therefrem A Presiden-
tial defeat, in affair and open election,
in which the South took part, gave the
rebellion being. It's first acts were
the plundering of National property.
and its continuance has been an IRON
desposis1n over the masses that were
beguiled into il: How, then, IN the
