CHARCOAL ON Flowers A CORES
pondent of the Re0ue Horticoye says that
not long ago he made bargain for rose.
buds. He waited for them to blow, and
expected roses worthy Of such noble
plant, and of the praises bestowed on it by
the vender, but when it 5loomed all his
hopes were blasted. The flowers were of a
faded hue, and he discovered that he had
only middling multihora, stale cOlOred
enough. lie therefore resolved to sacrifice
it to some experiments which he had in
view. His attention had been directed to
the effects OF charcoal as stated in some
English publication. He then covered the
earth in the pot in which the rose-bush
was, about half an inch deep with pulver-
lied charcoal Some days after he was
astonished to see those which bloomed of
as fine lively rose color as he could wish
He determined to repeat the experiment,
and therefore, when the rose-bush had
done Towering, he took off the charcoal
and put fresh earth about the roots, and
waited for the next spring impatiently to
see the result of this experiment. When
it bloomed the roses were al first pale and
discolored, but by applying the charcoal as
before, they soon assumed their rosy y-red
color. He then tried the powdered char.
Goa! in large quantities upon petunias, and
round that both the white and violet col
ored flowers were equally sensitive to its
action. 1t always gave great vigor to the
RED or violet colors, and the white petunias
became veined with red or violet tints the
violets became covered with irregular spots
of blush or almost black tint. Many
persons who admired them thought they
were choice new varieties from the seed.
Yellow flowers appear to be insensble to
the influence of charcoal.

ASA PACKER, whom the Democrats of
Pennsylvania have just nominated tor Gov
ernor would hardly do to run on the same
ticket with Gen. Rosencrans, whom the
Democrats of the next State Westward. are
trying to support with show of cheerful.
ness Heis man reputed wise because
of faculty of looking wise and keeping
quiet. In Tammany Hall last Summer
the Pennsylvania Democrats tried long to
persuade the Convention that he was a fit
man for the Presidency, but with very IL
different success. They are not now
likely to have any better luck in trying tc
persuade their own people of his fitness foi
the Governorship. We are inclined tc
think that they have not made the most OF
their opportunities. Gen, George W
Cass, who fell only 10 votes behind Mr.
Packer on the first ballot, would have been
a much stronger candidate. The Platform
is of the old sort. We read that the
Negro should not have the ballot, that oul
finances are in dreadfully bad way, and
will never be better until Democrats handle
the money, that the Reconstruction policy
leads to Imperialism, and that our taxation
is tyranny. On the whole, the candidate
and the platform fit we'll together, and both
are exceedingly we'll adapted for defeat

THE analysis of the common apple tree
shows its wood to contain from forty five to
fifty per cent, of lime. Sand is SILICA, of
which there is very little in the apple tree.
Hence soil to grow the common apple
we'll, must contain lime, which clay soil
does to large extent. Clay is therefore,
the soil for an orchard.

General Dent opened his campaign in
Cosinth, Miss, by a speech, the main object
Of which was to persuade Tho negroes that
they are moi indebted to the Republican
pasty or to "white men from the Northern
States" for their freedom, because, says
this Rapient fellow, emancipation was only
proclaimed as a military necessity. But
who proclaimed it as military necessity?
Did the shareholders, or the Democratic
party who now nominate Dent? No.
President Lincoln is the best judge Of the
grounds On which emancipation was pro-
claimed. He stated them in tho procl4ma-
ton itself, az follows:
"ADd upon this ect sincerely iettxed 70 1e an aes
W }astis, warranted BY the coHstttufion npon mftt-
tory Necessity. invoke Tho confederate Judgment
Of nAnHlnd and tne gracious favor Of Almighty
Cod"
The above language expresses Mr.. Lin
coln's faith relative 10 emancipation, viz,
that il was. intriusically aua under any cir
cumstances, an act Of justice, be-
cause slavery was, intrinsicaliy md
uuder all circumstances, unjust; but that
to justify him rs President in issuing such
proclamation, and in using tho army and
navy Of the United States to enforce il, it
must first be warranted by tho Constitution,
of the United States. This, be believed, il
could not bc, until military necessity
rendered it necessary aa means to save
tho Union and restore peace, which
the Democrats always contanded it novc1
was. When General Dent succeeds
in perHuading the negroes Of Mississippi
shnt they owo President Lincoln no graft
tude for emancipation, because it waa done
to savo the Union, Satan will probably u
equally successful in persuadipg them TIM
they owe no gratitude to their Divine Lord
because lis sacrifice also WIN done to pro
1noia tho Divine glory.

TIE POWELL EXPEDITION.

CoionciJ. ". Powell, wholeft this city last
spring, at the head Of m expedition to ex.
plo1e the Grand Canon Of the Colorado, re-
turned yesterday, having successfully trav-
essed the entre canon, from the Green
River to the point where the Colorado de-
bouches into the open plain in The Territory
Of Arizona. Several OF Colonel Poseli.s
letters describing the adventures aud
discoveries Of himself and his party have
appeared in TuE TRmCsE From the point
where the Inst of these letters Was de-
spatched, the expedition descended the
river about four hundred miles, between
wills almost vertical, ranging from Ave
hundred to fifteen hundred feet in height
the e1ter1or rim Of the canon being from
twenty-five hundred to four thousand feet
above the he'd Of the river. Moro than two
hundred waterfalls and cascades emptying
themselves eyez the walls Of the canon into
the main river we're seen IN this dis-
lance, presenting almost every 10
riety Of natural scenery. The geo
logical formation Of the canon
consists principally Of limestone and sand-
stone. Granite was found only ut three
pluces, and in limited amount. No discov-
cries Of precious metals were made, and no
Indications Of gold OF silver were found in
the bed OF the river. One section of the
canon was found to consist Of very fine and
beautifully polished marble, which is nj
present entirely inaccessible. The country
t1avcrsed is barren beyond description, mud
is pronounced by Colonel Powell not sns.
eeptiiie of cultivation, even by irrigation.
We trust that Colonel Powell will embody
the results Of his exploration in book
