ABoUr PLASTs.-In q late issue OF the Gar.
deners' Monthly, the editors lay down these
ten articles OF faith In regard TO the habits and
nature OF plants. They are SO plain, and, we
truly believe, incontrovertibie, that we are not
willing our readers should not have the benefit
Of them:
l. That plants do not lie dormant or hyber.
nate in the winter. 2. That a plant must
maintain heat to retain its vitality through
winter. 8. That to circulate heat through Its
system in winter to prevent its parts from
from freezing, 1t can only do so through the
medium OF moisture. 4. That the drier element
Invariably abstracts from the moisture. The
AtmnAphere expels moisture from the plant In
winter as well as In summer, In proportion to
its dryness. s. The dryness of the atmosphere
10 usually In proportion to the lowness OF this
temperature. Q. The more rapidly a dry surfact
is made to pass over a moister one the greater
is the loss by the latter. I. There can be nc
vitality without waste OF heat. 8. There
can be no waste OF heat In living things with
ont waste OF moisture. 0. To supply thii
waste, moisture must be drawn into the plant
all through winter, even though the roots b'
encased in frost. 10. When evaporation goe
on faster than the capacity OF the roots Il

upon question which we are not aware has

decide upon the eligibility OF Mr.. William r.
Tyler, the Seventh Ward, this city, to seat
In the House. He was elected on the Demo.

vouchers of his election. His fitness by edu-
cation and ability none will deny, but Mr.. Tyler
lacks some months of attaining his majority.

| Representatives to the General Court shall be

Of the many faults to which the far.
mer is addicted, that of feeding down
his fields in she fall is one Of the most
unwise. After continually cropping
during the pasturing season, the feed
gets dry and scaut, and the short
sighted farmer thinks the best way Is
to turn the cattle into bis fields. 1t
saves heJaH feet, too. How erroneous
an idea
After the hay crop is removed, nature
at once sets to work to cover up the ex-
posed roots of the plants from the cons
ing cold of winter, by causing a new
growth of grass, called rowen aud after
lhath. The decay of this second crop
also enriches the ground, so that a lar
