The Cincinnati Enquirer says: "We have
known some farmers make IL regular practice
for succession of years to throw caustic time
around their apple trees in the spring and sum-
mer. We one noticed that a tree standing in
the immediate vicinity Of our dwelling had all
at once put forth with renewed energy, and we
were at loss for some time to define the cause.
On examination we found that a quantity of
lime, which had accidently beeu spilled, and
rendered worthless by becoming mixed with
the refuse on the stable floor, had been thrown
AT the foot and around the tree, and to this, as
the principal cause, we Immediately accred-
Ited the revivescence and renewed fructifica.
ZION Of the trees. Taking the hint from the
incident, we purchased twelve casks Of lime,
and applied half a bushel TO each of the trees
in our orchard, and found that 1t produced
immediate beneficial effects. Not the health of
the tree only, but the quality of the fruit also
was greatly improved. This application will
be especially beneficial in soils where there
is redundancy of vegetable matter. We
would advise our farmers in some places espec.

on low lands, to make trial of this experiment (

A DEMORALIZING ScENK-The people of
northern New Hampshire gathered in large
numbers at HaverhiIl yesterday to witness the
execution of Samuel Mills, a condemned mur-
derer. His request that strangers should not
be permitted to break in upon his sad medita-
tions in his cell in the early morning hour
seems TO have been regarded. But this was a
chance for a dramatic display not to be lost,
and the doomed man was placed upon the
stand, spectacle Tor the assembled multitude,
and kept standing there for half an hour, with
an occasional admonition from the sheriff of
the number of mint utes he had to live. He had
made up his mind to die "game" and in the
presence Of the assembled thousands he seems
to have forgotten that he was about to appear
In the presence Of his final judge, and to have
been anxious only to meet the approval Of that
throng as man Of firmness. And SO, as the
half-hour passed away, and the last prepara.
tons were being made, and the sheriff still kept
calling over the fleeing minutes, he stood
there, enduring the torture which racked his
soul, with the hardwood OF an Indian at the
stake, and finally died, and in his last breath
bandying words with the spectators, and the
last sounds heard by him on earth were row.
