AS soon as the buds commence to
round up in the spring, tie up your cane
firmly in bow, ftwo-thirds of a per-
feet circle1 or upon wires at an angle
of less than 45 degrees cultivate clean,
rub off all buds except three on spur;
these are to be carefully grown into two
or three strong canes, trained upright
on stakes, or to the right and lett if on
wires. The cane oftwelve eyes which
is tied down for frulting, will demon
strate whether it is properly done, by
the evenness or unevenness of the
breaking of the buds.
SUCCESSFUL TRAINING. sis5 ~
When the lower buds open and .groy
as srapidly as the central and terminal
buds, and develop equally good fruit.
UNSUCCESSFUL TRAINING. -lll
When the buds open and advance
unequally, those at the highest point
being much the largest. :,
If certain buds advance too rapidly,
pinch off the head; this will stay their
growth, and all the others will advance,
thus aqualising them QA.-Rwal Gentle

F Some people i've in an atmos-
phere Of storm. They seem never SO
happy as when engaged in a row.
They act as if constantly on the watch
to find opportunities for angry wrang-
ling, The habit is most unfortunate.
1t not only destroys the comfort of 9TH
ers, but degrades him who indulges in
it. 1t blunts his own sensibilities and
intencifies his irritability, while impair
ing his self respect. 1t is truth
too often forgotten that gentlemen do
engage in quarreling. we cannot too
heartily commend the sound philoso-
ply of the following adviceof a sem
sible writer: ain nine cases out often
the better course is, If man cheats
you cease to deal with him :. If he is a.
busive; quit his company; if he SIAN
ders you; take care to live SO no one
will believe him.. Nomstter who he is
or how he misuses you, the wisest way
is to let him alone for there is nothing
better than this cool, calm and quiet
way OF. dealing with the wrongs we
meet with.

THRIVE SLOWLY.

1t is dangerous for a man to grow rich
and strong faster than he grows good.
l do not think it is wise to grow rich
too fast, at any rate. don mean to say
that there may not be men of such stat
ure that they can grow rich rapidly
without being hurt by their riches /; but
generally God makes the road to wealth
one of care, so that the process is one of
education, and so that, when a man had
attained his competence, he has gone
through that which is a strengthener,
stiffener, and which prevents his being
much injured by it. But when men
come into the possession of wealth with
out having earned it they are apt to be
injured by it, because they have not re-
ceived that education which is necessa-
ry to. enable them to administer it prop
erly.

MAKAeEsEHT OF YOUNG WINS.

For the benefit Of young grape grow
ers, we publish the following practical
directions from an essay read by Ii. q.
McPike before the Alton Qll.) Horti-
cultural Society
THE GROUND.
While we are far from recon- mending
deep trenching, turning the surface
four to six feet under, we are as far from
going to the other extreme, which in
sists that eight or ten inches is deep
enough for any vineyards. The one is
waste of labor, the other the immediate
result of Incidence.
PLANTING.
The ground should be carefully cultf-
waited and rotted beforeIplanting Vine
YARD. Turning the ground up most
thoroughly twenty inches deep, using the
large plow, followed by the subsoiler.
I.s.afe DISTANCE.
We would have the vines not less than
6 by 6 or 6 by feet apart; planting
the vines very early in the spring, set-
ting them deep, and being very careful
to adjust and cover the roots, neatly,
packing the earth firm, cutting the
stock back to one eye. .l3
FIRST YEAR.
The vines should be thoroughly culti-
vated, keeping them free from weeds,
and allowing only cane to grow-stak-
ing them early and tying up to the
stake. In the following November cut
back the vine to the ground.
SECOND YEAR.
In the spring several buds will ap-
pear: rub them all Off but two, training
them up, tying to stake, and cultivat-
ing clean as before. In November cut
back the cane nearest the ground to
three eyes, which ia the spur;Ethe other
to ten or.twelye eyes, laying them down
and covering for winter with earth.

FROM WASHINGTON.

President Jshnson ON abe suaa'ion
New York, January 2o.-ine Moria >
Washington correspondents ~ PERSONA ,..
interview with President Johnson yes
terday ELECTED the following iiom INC
T 800 That as the President OF
a. ITnited States, bound by oath, he
adripistered the government according
- tha Copstitution He had in defend
nc nrinciple found himself singuiarly
ons,osed by another branch of the gov
sInmept, but he had faith in the good
sense of the people and medlhcation
of sentiment has ensued. The Radicals
have made Congress politlcai mon
strosity, having overleaped all bounds
of the same, those of party and political
ambition they now keep, having by
conquest in the South this year
10 obtain power more than equivalent
TO that lost in the North. He then re-
ferred TO the effort made to connect MN
with the assassination plot, and SAID,
"the leaders of that movement are ca
pable of employing any measure to gel.
rid of him or shear him of his power" "
The measure of Congress, he said was
revolutionary. The proposition 10 ae,
prive by act of Congress the vested
authority of the President as command
er.in-chief is q direct violation OF the
Constitution. The bill submitted oy
Mr. Bingham assumes the right OF Con-
gress to do away with the President

Government. The assumption IS AFRO.
can't. dangerous and destructive. If
there had been liberal, generous, law
abiding sentiment predominant IN the
North, By this time Ike South would
have been almost on its legs again; the
vanity of the negroes would not have
been so fed to bursting that labor, free
labor, for their old masters should be
rejected, shirked and lost; there would
have been no military usurpation, but
civil governments in each State. He was
convinced, that if every District com.
mander in the South should he changed
to Department commander, with his
duties confined to assisting civil author
tiles TO preserve order, civil govern
ments would be rapidly and peacefully
restored.
In his judgment the speedy result OF
this would be the reorganization OF the
whole country, but it appears as if Con
gress were determined not to allow this
happy contamination. Arovolution such
as these headlong spirits seem determin,
ed to precipitate may have if suffered
to 90 on. an effect more damaging than
the civil war. In response to an init
nation that he was understood to IN
TEND to exercise all authority vested IL
him to repel these revolutionary meas
ures, the President said he intended tC
do his duty; as to what that duty may
involve, if it would be premature
even to suggest. We will leave special
measures for special occasions when they
arise. have confidence in the gooC
sense of the army aud certainly be
lieve in the people; believe III the
young men; they will not permit rev
olut!On to be accomplished even thougl
it might be necessary for the people Il
take the matter into their hands.
