Improve the Homestead

The first thing 1 should press on the far
mers, in the way of improvement, would be
what we might call roadside improvement
Keep the cattle off the highways, keep the
weeds cut close, and lines of shade-trees on
each side-this, with neat fences, will be an
evidence of civilization to begin with. Then,
would enjoin the removal from the roadsides
near the dwellingSof all dilapidated and bro
ken implements, which are apt, somehow or
other, to accumulate.
The barn and other out buildings are very
frequently located more on the principle of
convenience than good taste, but we must take
these things as they are, and improve them
with paint or wash of some sort, and good
thick belt Of rapid growing trees around them,
both for shelter and shade, and to partly con,
ceal their unsightly appearance.
Then, as for the door yard, l would dig up,
root out all the old neglected plum, peach,
cherry and ounce trees, that seem to have
sprung up by chance in the fence Corners
All the finer fruits, 1 would form into nice
fruit garden of half an acre to two acres, as
might be necessary. There would have
complete collection of pears, cherries. apricot5,
plums, ounces, all the small fruits, systemati-
cally planted and carefully cultivated This
garden might be made one of the most inter
estiDg portions Of the premises, to say nothing
of the abundant supply of fine fruit aud veg
etables it would yield. Hero the family
could acquire taste for gatdening,as well as
to practice it.
Then the ground about the house, would
convert into a smooth lawn, which must be
kept cut close all summer. This lawn must
be suitably embelIished with deciduous and
evergreen trees, Towering shrubs. roses, &c.
This is the way preach to the farmers when
visit them, but only once in a great while
with any effect. 1t is a shame for our we'll
to.do farmers that they are so behind in this
matter. 1t makes farm life go dull and
dreary pursuit, that am not surprised to
see all the brighter boys run away from it,
and our rural population, growing less and
less every year. Then think how much these
Improvements would add TO the market value
of the farms. A nice house, some good
fences, an orchard, increase the value of a
farm from $50 to s25 per acre, other things
being equal; but carry out such suggestions
as have made, and what do you suppose it
would ada to the value of farm Almost
double it. This argument has some weight ;
it touches the pocket; but the moral effect Of
such improvements void be absolutely incaI-
culable.-P. Barry.

Late Cultivation of Orchards.

The period Of the year has arrived when
cultivation in the orchard should cease. 1t
should not be the policy of the owner to
stimulate his trees, either by manuring or
cultlvatihg IN the latter part Of the summer,
to make vigorous late growth. The tim0
for the wood to be formed is in the spring
and early summer-then the cultiVator should
be kept at work and manure applied. But
ample time should be allowed afterwards for
the trees to ripen their wood so as to endure
the winter uninjured.
On rich soils, where the apple is delicate,
large growth Of the wood should be especial
Is guarded against. Pear orchards every
where should not be cultivated and S;imu-
lated after the prime of summer is passed
The peach growers Uf Maryland and Dela-
ware have learned better than to cultivate
their orchards late 10 the season by noticing
the tendency of trees thus treated 70 cast
their fruit If a neglected orchard Is ploW-
ed late the fruit is sure to fall the next year.
In localities where the rot has been prevalent
In vineyards it has been noticed that unculti-.
va;ed viues escaped while those well taken
care ofHere infected. So 1t has been thought
better by some cUltivatOrs 20 have weeds
cover the ground and healthy fruit the vines,
than TO take up with TIE reverse. clean grouDd
aud rotten fruit. Perhaps late cultivation in
the vineyard induces the rot when other cir
cumstanees also favor. But Weedy, appa-
Tently uncared for orchard or vineyard Is an
eye-sore to tile enthusiastic fruit grover, and
such an appearance is likely to be assumed
when the cultivatOr and hoe are laid aside at
midsummer To avoid this, to check late
growth of orchards, and for the purpose of
eurichiug the soil at proper time. we suggest
that some crop, as rye. be soWn the last time
of culrivatiDg. This crop would also shield
tie ground 10 the winter and furnish q rc0st
Of manure TO PlOTl under In the succeeding
Eprirg.

Condition Of the South,

Hon. WM. a. GRAHAM of North Caroli-
ma, one of the clearest, headed statesman of
the South, has written letter bearing upon
the present condition and future prospects Of
the Southern States, under the reconstruction
measures. We present the following ex-
tract =
THE situation of the States Of the South,
to which you allude, is indeed melancholy
We are realizing the truth Of the declaration
of Mr.. Fox. that the most dangerous of all
revolutions is a restoration The idea of
constraining the States by military domina-
ton into the adoption of local governments,
with the right of suffrage extended to me-
groes, without any qualification except being
of the male sex aud over twenty-one years of
age, and by the Howard amendment to the
Constitution of the United States at the same
time DISTINGUISHING all men Of experience aud
influence among us, is the most solemn farce
that has been enacted in all history. 1t is to
roll back the tide of civilization two centu.
ries at least, and place the ballot in the hands
of a constituency less qualified for the Office
of government than has ever before exercised
it in any Republican country"

POETICAL.
"PooR cARLoTTA.n

Every one has heard Of the tender affection which
existed between Maximilinn and his WiIe-an af.
ectiOn that overthrew CarlOtta's reason when her
husbands fortunes began to wane, and made her
n'me the last word MaEimiliau ever spoke The
'sautifuI story of welded love Is toucbingly told,
n the following lines. by Mrs. E. Sherman Smith,
which We take from the Home Journal:
Did ever wild romaneer weave
Or poet pen so sad story2
Tie cOIdest heart. methlnks, must RTieYs
For thee, and all Thy vanished glory.
But yesterday such ioys were thine
1t seemed that fate with fond caressinRS
Had sought to lavish at thy shrine
Her richest store Of bOOnS and blessings.
Youth. Beauty, Wit and Grace thy dover.
With royal birth nd regal splendor,
And, crown OF all thy PomP and power.
husbands love InGSt true and tender.
Ah! "POor CarlOtta.' . where to-day
Are all the gifts that Fortune sent theef
Like fairy favOrs torn away,
And lost almost as sOon as lent thee.
The mystic meteor ola night,
That for one glorious moment traces
ltsshining path mid worlds Of light,
Then falls and fades in darksome places.
Is type, alas of thy career.
~ One instant Heayen's own bliss around thee;
The next, hurled from thy starry sphere,
Madness and misery both have found thee.
We have no tears to mourn thy fall
From glittering scenes of power and splendor +;
But for loss more vast than all
OF these' our fond regrets we tender.
Let crown, and throne, and palace go:
They brought no true, no real gadness;
They saved thee not from tears OF woe:
They shielded not from Care and Madness.
But keep, amid the wrecks of iovs
Strewn on the cheerIess path before thee
The memory of that constant love
Which shone, and stall Is shining DER thee.
They took thy royal consort's life,
But could not take the love he gave thee:
Oh, crOWnless queen oh, suffering wife
Let this dear thought sustain aud save thee.
Thy name upon his dying lips
Thy name SO fondly, gently spoken
Told e'en in that most sad eclipse.
The ties that bound thee were not broken.
SOmsIrhETG he watches DER thee vet,
With spirit faithful, fond and tender:
SOmeIctsTe the star that here hath set
Rises again in morning spIendor.
The world is ringing with his fate!
And many weep the while they name him.
He recks not, in his new estate.
Whether men pity, praise or blame him.
Look mp, poor queen. Look up, sweet wife.
Nothing is lost while Love rcmaineth!
The brightest jewel of thy life
No touch Of shame or error staineth.
Triumphant over Fate it shines,
The star of MaximIlian's Is story,
And with thy name and his entwines
One tender ray of tadcless glory.
