Claims The 500 bounty due soldiers discharged
for wounds received in battle, collected WITHOUT
DELAY. We pay especial attention to claims In
which other attorneys have failed, or which have
been suspended, of which there are tens OF thous-
ands. We have already collected and paid over
to soldiers and their heirs over $500 OOOi and are
paying thousands daily. We secure pensions for
ten dollars, and collect bounty and back pay for
ten per cent, and no pay until after we have sue
ceeded.
The ARMY HERALD is published monthly, and
is devoted to the interests Of the soldier and his
heirs--to whom it Is invaluable. Write us and
we will send you a copy free, or for thirty cents

graved tinted likeness (album size) of LIT. Gen.
Grant, and the Army Herald for one year To
persons sending club of four, we will send as
premium, an additional likeness and the Herald
for one year, and for each additional subscriber
an additional likeness TO the getter up of the
club, so that a person sending us club of ten
and IS, will be entitled to receive, himself, seven
likenesses and the Army Herald forone year, and
for any other number in the same ratio.

THE KITCHEN GARDEN
Melrose, Jan. s, 1865.

TOMATO Since this plant has acquired
double value by its capability of being
preserved (by pottiug) entirely fresh for
winter, it deserves double attention in
cultivation Raise plants in hot-beds for
early fruit, and SOW seed in April for
later plants, or, if the spot where they
stood the previous year has not been dis
tnrbed, you will be sure to find strong,
hardy plants there, as early and abundant
as from seed bed. Plant in good ground
4 feet apart, and give the plants support,
or if that is not practicable, spread the
ground beneath them thickly with straw,
to prevent the rotting of fruit from con-
tact with the ground. 20
Chickens are very destructive to this
vegetable. When winter approaches
pull up the vines. and hang up in warm
cellar; all the half ripe fruit will mature
Ripe tomatoes cut with stems, and placed
just not touching esch other, will keep a

From the Country Gentleman and Cultivator.
THE CULTIvTION OF FLOWERS.

If there is pursuit which we 1--we
with more than ordinary affection 1t is that
which leads to the cultivation Of flowers;
indeed, it hardly seems proper to denom-
mate a pursuit, which implies labor men
tai and physical, for this employment pos
sesses gratifying qualities which marks 1t
az diversion to those who love its pleas
ant teachings. 1t is sweet labor OF love,
and in its performance are found garner
ed. sheayes of instruction. which contrib
ute greatly towards epnobling the mind
exaltipg the spirit, and elevating the
whole character.
To many persons the planting of a
flower seed seems of minor Importance;
vet how much of beauty and adornment
for cottage and its surroundings lies
embryotically secreted in just one little
seed.
Of all the beautiful truths pertaining
to the vegetable kingdom, it seems to us
there is none more wonderful or mysteri-
GUS than the results from planting seed.
Its termination, its continuous growth,
the persevering delicacy with which it
puts forth its yernal coat. How solicit
GUS we watch for the expected appearing
of the buds which compactly envelop the
concealed beauties Of the unfolded How
ers, and when we behold the smooth ex-
pansion of the softly tinted petals. and
inhale its luxurious perfume, floating Sc
renely on the ambient air, then we real
ize the long expected fruition, and our
hearts are impressed with due sense of
the kindness of Him who doeth all things
we'll" ..........
Obtuse must be the eye that cannot
see beauty and loneliness in the tender
blossoms inanimate must be the heart
that fails to feel more than ordinary in
terest and affection in the cultivation of
flower seeds, which clearly prove Them
selves to be bright harbingers of joy to
loving households, and sweet tokens of
the goodness of the all-benefcent Crea-
tor.
Let every farmer, merchant, mechanic
be he in the higher or humber walks
of life, it matters not--in fact, every per-
son who has a small plot of land at his
disposal, and who has not, that lives with
out the city limits devote that space to
the cultivation of flowers. Interest your
family in this diversion, permit your wife
and children to assist you in planting the
seeds, and when the young tendrils leave
mother earth, seeking assistance like the
newly born babe, let them participate
with you in training and guiding them
for future admiration. Their affection
will soon be as lively as your own; their
interest will prompt them to daily per-
formance of the slight labor necessary to
revive the flower dropping forms after
days exposure to burning sun. Your
daughter will beautify and adorn your
rooms with the lovely blossoms, whose
rich fragraco shall impart to you new life
after day Of toll Home will be more
cheerful, its surroundings more pleasant;
your love for the old homestead will grow
stronger and you AMI your children will
look with fear and dread to an estrange.
