AN IMPORTANT DECISION. case
involving small amount of money.
but an important principle, came up
before his Honor Judge Wylie re-
Gently. 1t appears that city physi-
clan was employed by Mr.. George G.
W. Morgan as his family physician,
rendering bills from time to time at
81; ultimately, without notice. the
doctor rendered bill of 50 per visit.
This Mr.. Morgan declined to pay,
but made tender of Sc, which the
doctor refused to receive. Justice
Barnaclo decided in the physicians S
1avor. 1t now came up under appeal,
and resulted in the reversal of the
Justices decision and reduction of
the bill to Sc; but, as there was no
corroborative testimony of the tender
OF the money, the costs were decreed
to the plaintiff. The Judge took the
opportunity to declare the associa-
ton of doctors an illegal association.

that when President Lincoln was
first informed of the arrest of jeff.
Davis by Gen Wilson, he expressed
his regret for it, and illustrated his
views by telling the famous story of

Davis was not arrested by Colonel
Pritchard until nearly four weeks

Lancashire TO Help THE SouTH.
ERN PooR.-As already announced in
the Pheni.r, it is proposed in Eng.
lansl to devote part of all the money
remaining in the Lancashire Cotton
Famine Fund to the relief of the
suffering poor in our Southern States.
The balance on hand amounts, it is
said, to nearly $780, 900 in our cur
rency;. and this money was contri-
buted, in fact, by the people of the
United States, in 1868, when, owing
to the war here, the workingmen in
the English cotton mills were Starving.
An address to Lord Derby, who is
chairman of the committee which
holds this fund, sets forth that dona-
tions to the value of e20O, 600 sterling
were made by the people of the
United States, i'll 1S47, for the relief
of the famine in Ireland; that, in
1868, the same people were munifi-
cent in contributing for the relief of
the distress occasioned by the cotton
famine i'll the English manufacturing
districts; that the Southern territory
now afflicted by famine is the cotton
growing territory of the world; and
that the use OF the balances now
lying i'll trust in Lancashire, for the
relief of the people of the South,
would strengthen the union which
should exist between Great Britain
and America.

We clip the following interesting
information regarding the New York
burial grounds from the papers of
that city: "The grounds on the West

as far down as Bowling Green, was
the once out-of-town burial ground
OF the founders of New Amsterdam.
The bricks of ten generations have
been built over those old bones. The

once the negro burial ground of New

their captives are, perhaps, of too
refined character for the purposes
of our Mackerclville constituency. &"

II. G.. is of the opinion that one great reason
for the influence exercised by Mr.. Gladstone
over public opinion in Great Britain. is the be.
lief in his honesty which the people entertain.
If this be true. the people there accord politi-
cal power to their public men for very different
reasons than those which govern men in the
choice of Legislators in this country. The re-
publican press here is now very generally engage
ed in discussing the corruption OF legislatures in
the Northern States and Congress. The members
of these legislative bodies will not lose any infu-
snce with the republican party by the exposure
of their venality and profigacy.
1t was not because of belief in his honesty
that "Dirty-W ork-Logan" was elected to Con-
yress, nor was Doctor Butler elected for that
son. Such a reason has not governed in the
election of any men to the present Congress,
save. perhaps, in the return of Fernando Wood

NJ Lanjoutet, Of Toulouse, France, sums up
the main rules for the trimming Of fruit trees q
follows: .. f,.,f a ! .gJyy ..,i,...,
1. A young, healthy tree, if LETT to ITSELF at
first produces only wool. After this first period
Of vegetation, the growth of wood gradually
slackens and preparation for the production Of
fruit develops itself i.[r.,r, ,.,... /,
2. A surplus of sap favors the growth of wood
at the expense of the frut-per contra, scarceness
Of sap increases the production of fruit to the
detriment of the growth of wood. ~. 4'1l
3. In healthy trees, not too old, the sap tends
rather to the surface Of the stem and branches
than to the interior parts. 3 t. BE -Asist
4. The branches which shoot upward thrive
with more force than those which grow in q hori-
zontal or bending position. ~ ..,. ia
B. The more exposed to air and light are the
branches, the greater the rapidly and vigor Of
their growth. 7st4a.
6. The annual trimming if too great, Injuries
the wood, producing knots and puffs on the
branches and diminishing the flow Of sap.
z. Trimming strengthens the branches, which
become weak If allowed TO grow too long.
=. The more fruit branch bears the less it will
thrive. ..,a..,- ...,..,. .l,..
8. Pinching off the young shoots, and trim
ming while the tree is in foliage, greatly retards
their growth. a
10. Trimming the outer branches too little,
gre atty retaIds the development of new branches.
II. On the ascending and Oh the the inclined
branches only the buds at the upper end develop
themselves well.
IL. On the branches with offshOots those near
est the stem are favored in their growth, while
the more distant ones remain feeble and weak.
10. Upon branches not subjected to trimming
and which are trained alternately in an ascend
ing and curving direction, so that they form
waving. line, all buds thrive with nearly equal
ease and vigor.

PLUMs ON CHERRY SrocKs.-The Maine Far.
D1r notices successful grating of Washington
Plum wild cherry stocks, and supposes that
other varieties will prove equally successful. A
writer in the Philadelphia Evening Post endor-
SEES this conclusion, rendered certain by many
examples witnessed by him in West Virginia,
and other localities further south The princi-
pal advantage claimed by this system of crossing
consists in the fact that the " black knot is
wholly obviatcd by il, while securing more GER
tain and munificent yield of fruit.
