NAILS IN FRUIT TREES.

A singular fact and one worthy Of being
recorded was mentioned to us few days
since by Mr.. Alexander Duke, of Albemarle.
He stated that whilst on a visit to neigh
Dor, his attention was called to large peach
orchard, every tree in which was totally de-
stroyed by the ravages of the worm, with
the exception of three and these were the
most thrifty and fourishing peach trees he
ever saw. The only cause of their superior
ity known to his host was an experiment
made in consequence of observing thatthose
parts of worm eaten timber into which nails
had been driven, were generally sound
When his trees were about year old, he had
selected three them, and driven tenpenny
nail through the body, as near the ground as
possible. Whilst the balance of his orchard
had gradually failed, and finally yielded to
the ravages of the worms, these three trees,
selected at random, treated precisely in the
same manner, with the exception of the
mailing, had always been vigorous and
healthy, furnishing him at that very period
with the greatest profusion of the most lu-
cious fruit. It is supposed that the salt of
iron furnished by the nail is offensive to the
worm, whilst it is harmless, or perhaps ben
eicial to the tree.
A chemical writer on this subject says =
The oxydation or rusting of the iron by
the sap evolves ammonia, which, as the sap
rises, will of course impregnate every part of
the foliage, and prove too severe dose for
the delicate palate Of intruding insects.
( This writer recommends driving half a
dozen nails into the trunk. Several expert
ments of the kind have resulted successfully.

DESCRIPTION OF A WELL-TAXED
COUNTRY.

Sidney Smiths terrible picture of his own
well-taxed country will never be forgotten.
What was then, and is still, true of England
has been made too true of our country, by
the wicked policy of sectional parties and by
the robberies and plundering which were
permitted in the prosecution of the war
Here is the picture:
"Taxes were piled on taxes, until they
reached every article which enters into the
mouth, or covers the back, or is placed un-
der foot; taxes upon everything which it is
pleasant to see, hear, feel, smell, or taste;
taxes upon warmth, light, and locomotion;
taxes on everything on earth and in the wa
tiers under the earth; on everything that
comes from abroad or is grown at home
taxes on the raw material; taxes on fresh
value that is added to it by the industry OF
man; taxes on the source which pampers
mans appetite, and the drug which restores
him to health on the ermine which decorates
the judge, and the rope which hangs the
criminal: on the poor mans salt and the
rich mans spice; on the brass nails of the
coffin and the ribbons of the bride. At bed
or board, couchant or levant, we must pay.
"The school boy whips his taxed top; the
beardless youth manages his taxed horse
Will IdAeu UTltlle, vi d ldACu ioao anu
the dying Englishman, pouring his medi-
cine which has paid seven per cent, into a
spoon that has paid fifteen per cent, filings
himself back upon the chintz bed which has
paid twenty-five per cent, makes his will on
an eight pound stamp, and expires in the
arms of an apothecary, who has paid Ii
cense of hundred pounds for the privilege
of putting him to death. His whole property
is then Immediately taxed from two 10 ten
per cent. Besides the probate, large fees are
demanded for burying him in the chancel !;
his virtues are handed down to posterity on
taxed marble and he is then gathered to his
fathers, to be taxed no more"
England was hundreds of years in piling
up the debt which compelled this taxation.
We did an equal "job" in four years. If
we shall prove as smart in paying as in accu-
mulating it, and thus speedily relieve our
people from its great burdens, we shall much
more exhibit our superiority to our English
ancestors, and in much more favorable
light.-DetrOn Free Press.

LATER FROM EURoPE.-NEw YORK, April
2.-The steamship City,ef Paris, with Liver
pool dates to the 21st, arrived at this port
to-day.
Several land owners in England have ap-
piled for permission to arm and drill their
tenantry The government refused consent,
feeling able to afford all necessary protec-
ton.
Several amendments have been proposed
to the reform bill. The newspapers are agi-
tating the subject.
The relations between Austria and Prussia
are represented as very threatening. Funds
are depressed in the various European mar
kets by the disquieting rumors.
The ex-Confederate steamship Shenandoah
was sold at Queenstown on the 22d, and
brought e15,750.

discharged on the ha5eas corpus to learn the
whereabouts of the horse that did him such
good service, and to secure his assistance IN
collecting his debt. He soon made himself
known, and while they were discussing about
the stolen horse, a lady and child entered the
same Office There was momentary pause,
and husband and wife were in each others
arms. We shall not attempt to describe the
scene which followed. The husband found
wife and child whom he firmly believed
to be dead, and the wife found husband
over whose grave she had shed bitter tears
of woe.

We publish to-day Proclamation by the
President, announcing the final closing Of
the war, the complete achievement of the
objects for which the war was begun, the
full recognition by the Executive of the
Southern States as part of the Union, the
termination of military jurisdiction In all but
one State of the South, and the restoration
Of the writ of hdbeas corpus. The various
proclamations and enactments by which .
state of war was declared in 1851, are care
fally recited. The whole history OF the Ex-
ecutive DEGREES and constitutional provisions
under which the war was subsequently car
ried on is carefully traced Not single
material point bearing upon the declared
purpose of either branch of the National
Legislature or of the President in carrying
on the war for the Union is left out of ac-
count in the recital. And that recital, we
venture to think, leads directly and logically
to the conclusion reached in the proclama-
ton that the necessity for military occupa-
{ ton of the South has ceased, and that thus
necessity for legislation for the South, under
the aoar poaoer, is also at an end-Texas alone
being an exception for the time.
The Interpretation of the present status Of
the South virtually places South Carolina
and New York on the same footing in all
that appertains to their relations to other
States, and to the National Government
And the Proclamation carries with it this
force without the slightest infringement up
on the high prerogative which Congress
holds to determine the rights of individual
claimants to seats in either branch of that
body. 1t simply announces to the Southern
States that they are once more intrusted
with the maintenance of law and order with
In their own borders-and to the world at
large that the unity of the Government is
restored upon basis consistent with the
rights and immunities Of individual States.
In view of our commercial and financial
position, we cannot regard this great execu-
tive act without satisfaction. In view even
of the differences whichtemporarily estrange
majority in Congress from the President,
the Proclamation will help reasonable men
to find basis of honorable compromise and
in view of the possibility of external trouble,
however remote, the act must commend it
self to all patriotic men as one of wisdom.
We believe there is good authority for
stating that the Freedmen's Bureau Act, as
it now exists will be continued in operation
for one year from the date of this Proclama-
ton. No one complains that that act is in
operative now. And no one who knows the
character of the high-minded military men
under whose. direction it has thus far been
enforced, will fear that it will be allowed to
operate to the prejudice Of the freedmen in
the year to come-Neo York Times.

MASONRY IN EURoPE-France has at
present |, 900 Masonic lodges, with 1900, 900
members. The " Grand Orient, 7" of Brussels,
Belgium, celebrated on February 18th a
great Masonic mourning service in memory
of their deceased brother, King Leopold l.
More than 800 brethren, among whom were
the representatives of all Masonic authorities
of Europe, were present. The provisional
grand master of Belgium, Senator Van Shoon
presided Deputy Defre, the orator of the
"Grand Orient" delivered the Grafton, and
the hymn, composed for the occasion by
Brother Hansens, delighted the whole au-
dience.

THE VoTE ON THE CIVIL RIGHTS BILL
In the Senate the bill was passed by vote
of 80 to 12. Of these, Senator Foot, who
voted for it, has since died, and Mr.. Stock
ton, who voted against it, has been sent back
to New Jersey. This leaves the vote 80 to
ii of these eleven, Messrs. Cowan, Norton
and Van Winklei are republicans. Three
republicans, Messrs. Cresswell, Doolittle and
Ira Harris, and two democrats, Messrs Rev
erdy johnson and Wright, did not vote
Two-thirds are necessary to pass bill over
the Presidents Veto Surprising the majority
in this case to keep their two-third votes,
and the minority of eleven to be increased
by all five of those who did not vote, then
there would be just two-thirds- thirty-two
against sixteen.
In the House the vote stood III yeas, 80
nays; and "a members did not vote. Sup
pose all to vote, it would require one hun
dred and twenty-five to pass the bill over
the veto. Of the thirty-four who did not
vote, twenty-six were republicans and eight
democrats. If those who voted for the bill
before are steadfast. they require only the
addition of eleven of the twenty-six republi-
cans who did not vote before to give them
the constitutional two-thirds.
1t is curious that the bill passed, before
in the Senate by nine more votes than the
required two-thirds; and in the House by
thirty-fve more than the required two thirds
