Renovating Old Orchards.

There are multitudes of old orchards through
out the country, too good to cut down, yet bear
ing fruit only fit for making into cider, Or feed
ing to swine. The owners frequently and earn
estly ask: What shall we do with them?
First, if the fruit is poor, change it by en-
grating. 1t is often the case that pruning
should go along with grating. The tops of the
trees which have become thick and matted to-
gether, should be thinned out But in pruning
let no one mount the trees rough shod, and
with axe and saw hack away at the lower limbs
and those in the interior. Instead Of this, thin
out the old, decayed limbs, cut out few of the
upper limbs as well as the lower, and try to pre-
serve the symmetry Of the tree. In grating
begin at the top and renew about one-thrd of
the tree each year.
The ground viii need renovating, also, by
blowing and manuring. The work should be
done carefully, without barking the trees Or
breaking their roots. But so much harm is Of
ten done to the roots, we think it best ordina-
rly to merely scarify the surface with harrow,
and to give it a top-dressing Of barn-yard ma
nure composed of muck, lime and wood ashes
When the trunks and limbs have become mos
sy, and SO rough as to harbor insects or their
eggs, scrape them, and then wash them with
weak I've or strong soap suds A common
whitewash brush will answer for applying this
mixture,

Mr.. Editor-It has been contemplated for
some time by the authorities of the above insti-
tuition Of learning to remove it to a more Access
sible location than its present. Three points
have been named, Richmond Lynchburg and
Stanton. Why should not the citizens of our
beautiful city Of the hills make some effort
to induce it's location here. 1t would certainly
be 4 great accession to the place. The Presi-
dent, w. A. Smith, D. d., is widely known as
scholar and educator. Let an effort be made
Look at Lexington, the ATHENS, Of Virginia,
two institutions extensively patronized While
at Stanton there is not even Seminary for
young men. Give US your opinion Mr.. Editor

Your Mother.

Speak kindly to your mother, and ever court
eously, tender of her. But little time and you
shall see her no more forever. Her eye is dim,
her form is bent, and her shadow falls grave
ward. Others may love you when she is past
away, a kind hearted sister, perhaps, or kind
hearted brother; or one whom, of all the world,
you choose for partner, may love you fondly !;
but never again, while time is yours, shall the
love Of one be to you as that Of your old trem-
bling mother has BEEN
In agony she bore you through pulling, help
less infancy, her throbbing breast has been your
safe protection and support; in your hayward
childhood she bore patiently with your thought
less rudeness, and nursed you through legion
Of ills and maladies. Her hand it was that
bathed your burning brow or moistened your
parched lips, her eye that lighted up the dark
ness Of wasting nightly yigis, watching always
in your fretful sleep. Oh, speak not her name
lightly, for you cannot live 50 many years as
would suffice to thank her fully Speak gently,
then, to your mother; and when you, too, shall
be old, it shall in some degree tighten the re-
morse which will be yours for other sins, that
never wantonly have you forgotten the respect
due to your mother.

EAGLE MACHINE WORKS
X RE-ESTABLISHED
CODApTNEpcuID

COMPREHENSIVE.
The undersigned have formed co-partnership
under the name and style of KAHL & RAHM, to
conduct general foundry and machine business
at their newly fitted up establishment, the
EAGLE MACHINE WORKS,
Corner Ninth and Canal Streets, (South side of
Basn,) Richmond, Va.
Are now prepared to manufacture Stationary and
Portable Sseane Eas9iaaes, of any required power
Also, Saw and Grist Mills,
Mill Gearings, Steam Boilers,
Brass and Iron Castings,
Forgngs, and Machinery of every description.
Having obtained most of the patterns of the late
Mr. Philip Rahm, we can build new and repair
old machinery with great facility, and being sup
piled with the most labor-saving TOOLS we can IA
voraby compete with any establishment in any
kind of work, both as to quality and price. The
senior partner Frank Kahl, mechanical engi-
neer, was, for number of years, superintendent
and partner in the late p Rahms Eagle Machine
Works. Adolphus J. Rahm, son of the late P.
Rahm. aided by f. Kahl, has conducted the bus
mess of his father since his death in JAN, 1862
until the fire in April, 1865, when the Works were
destroyed. We assure the public that any work
entrusted to US will be carried out on the most
scientific and practical plan, combining simplicity
with efficiency, and economy with durability
As successors to the late Mr.. P. Rahm, of the Ea-
gle Machine Works, on Cary Street, Richmond,
Va, we solicit a continuance of the liberal pat
ronage heretofore enjoyed by that establishment,
from its friends and the public generally

gone He considered the case moment, and
then sudden thought flashed through his mind.
So stepping out, he whispered the fact to the
porter, and gained permission to take his dog in
for minute or two. Look here, Prince,
said he, you knowing dog, my watch is stolen, +"
and he showed him the empty pocket and the
cut chain. do you understand, old fellow?-
In there, sir, is the thief You find it, my good

and tail, and gave his master a wonderfully
knowing look, and then the two stole quietly in
to the place again.
Quietly this dumb detective glded around a.
mong the people, smelling away at this one S
coat and at that ones chin, until at last he set
his teeth firmly into the coat-skirt of a gentee-
young man quietly made known the case to the
bystanders who gathered around him, and had
the thief pockets duly searched Six other
watches were found upon him, which he had
gathered up in the course Of the morning, and
which their rightful owners were very glad to
get their hands on again Prince selected out
his masters property in twinkling, as that
was all he cared for, and gave it to him joyfuly

Tomorrow.

A noble ship was nearing home after long
voyage. On her clean, white deck stood many
a rough, weather beaten sailor, looking anxious
ly at the white cliffs of his native land, and a
smile of joy passed over his sun-burnt face at
the pleasing thought, eve shall anchor to-mor-
row!' And there were old men who had not
seen their childhoods home for long, long years.
and the tears stood in their eyes as they look at
the distant shores and said, eve shall land to-
morrow!' And there, too, was mother, lift
ing up her little one to look at the far-off land
and whispering, ''We shall be at home to-mor-
row!
But their tomorrow never came That eve
ming the gentle breeze became furious storm !;
the ripping waves became foaming, angry bill
lows the sails were split into ribbons; the rud-
der was broken the vessel became unmanage-
able; she drifted upon the terrible quicksands,
became wreck, and all on board persisted.
And are there not many of us expecting to-
morrow that may never come? Do we not Law
plans for the future, forgetting that at any mo-
ment our frail bark may be destroyed, and the
dark waters of death close over us forever?
Are our young friends prepared for this sud-
den change? Should the King s messenger ar
rive to-day, and summon US to appear before
his Masters throne, would he be received with
fear or with joy? IF with fear waste not an
hour before earnestly seeking the salvation
which Jesus offers you.
