C.,si,atl.n orPear Trees.

H
Or. Ward, OF New Jersey, being call
ed upon at the N. Y Farmers Club TO
state bis practice in raising pear trees,
said; fee-
II manure them regularly every year
ss far as possible, and ! apply the ma
nure to the surface in autumn. If L
fail to manure an orchard one year, the
falling off in the crop is as visible as it
would be in 4 crop ofcorn." He uses
stable manure, and don't care how
coarse and fresh it is. In the spring
Of the year, he cultivatcs the ground
with small horse plow, or Shares S
harrow, working the ground about two
inches deep, going over it once certain
ly, and twice if possible. The ground
10 then mulched with salt hay from two
to four inches deep. In this way hC
Is so certain Of what the trees will yield
that he can determine the amount o
the crop almost exactly by referring K
the record Of last year. His orcharC
is standards and dwarf mixed. Hi
standards were planted twenty fee
aphrteachway, with dwarf between
part Of which have died out. Th
soil is the hard red gravelly characte
of that part Of New Jersey, near New
ark. His most trustworthy sorts 70
making money are the Bartlett an
Duchess d'Angouleme. BY retardin
the ripening of the Bartlett in coo
fruit-room, he is able to extend tn
period of sending it to market sewers
weeks.

MELON BUGs.-Charles Tompson, OF
St. Albans, VT, says: "To prevent the
rayage of the melon bug, it is only ne
cessary to PLACE box, without top or
bottom, around each hill of plants
The bug will fly against the box and
fall down on the outside oft, and if it
be well bedded in the earth, so that no
entrance can be found beneath it, the
plantslwill be secure. 1t is the practice
of some to cover the top of the box OF
muslin, but this is altogether need
less"

Now that the rebellion has been sup-
pressed and the Union maintained, we ex.
pect shortly to hear the copperheads of the
North claim that they never opposed the
war, and were always in favor of crushing
out the rebellion by force of arms. That
they we're in favor of all measures that
would in any way weaken the force of the
insurgents and destroy their military power,
and that they never uttered one word, d,either
before or since the Inauguration of the re.
belion, calculated to give them encourage
ment in their wicked purpose of destroying
the Union. When such declarations are
being made by them it would be well to
remind them of the following resolution
passed by the Democratic State Convention,
held in Columbus, Ohio on the 23d day Of
January, 1861, while James Buchanan was
President, and while the rebellion was being
inaugurated:
"Resolred, That the two hundred thousand
Democrats of Ohio send to the people of the
United States, both North and South
greeting; and when tho people the North
shall have fulfilled their duties to tht
Constitution and the South, then, and no
till then, will it be proper for them to tax,
into consideration the question Of the pro
proty ofcoercon. - Guernsey Times.

Mr.. LINCoLN's CANE.-Mrs Lincoln has
given to Senator Sumner palmetto cane,
which was presented to Mr.. Lincoln some
months since. The head of the cane is an
elaborately carved piece of ivory, repre-,
sentng an eagle shielding with her wings a
nest containing several eaglets, and in the
act Of drawing up with her beak the folds
ofan American flag, to protect the nest and
her young from the insidieus approach of a
serpent. The idea aptly symbolizes the
Union dangers, and, us developed upon
the head of the cane, is quite effective as
we'll as ornamental.
