THE GOLD FIGHT.

The field returns from the recent gold
fight in New York come in slowly and
give US, 10 a cautious way, the list OF
killed, wounded aud missing. 1t would
seem that the general result should be
summed W in brief terms as that the
enemy is severely hurt but retains
enough of the courage of desperation
and enough stimulated vitality to be
sgain put in the Geld whenever an op-
portunity offers itself. This struggle,
involving the public credit as it does,
resembles that other contest which was
represented some years ago by GRAM
on one side and Lee on the other. IL
would seem also that Boutwell,, who
is the General officer upon whose
courage and skill the popular cause

New BIRDS FOR DoMEsTICArIoN. :.

New BIRDS FOR DoMEsTIcATIoN.-
Thero are in the northern part Of
South America at least two gallina-
ceous birds which may DO very easily
domeslicated, and DC made to take the
place OF tho turkey. ONO of these is
the crested curaasow (crar alector), a
very beautiful bird, with a, white head
and neck, rich: olive-brown body,
black wing tips, and tutt of curleo
black feathers to crown the head. It
Is about the size of turkey. The
other is the cashew bird, with deep
black plumage, having tints Of olive
green, contrasting brilliantly with the
scarlet bill and yellow legs. AS it is
found only at an elevation Of 1000
feet or more, and adorns many a farm
yard of the Cordillera, there would be
some hope Of SUCCESS of introducing
it into this coutry.

Every boy should have his head,
his heart and his hand educated. Let
this truth never be forgotten. By
the proper education Of the head, he
will be taught what is good and what
is evil, what is wise and what is fool
ish, what is right and what is wrong.
BY the proper education of the heart
he will be taught to love what is good,
wise and right, and to hate what is
evil, foolish and wrong And by the
proper education of the hand, he will
be enabled to supply his wants, to add
to his comforts, and to assist those
around him. The highest objects Of
a good education are, to reverence and
obey God, and to love and serve man
kind. Everything that helps US in
attaining these objects is of great val
ue, and everything that hindcrs us is
comparatively worthless. When wis
dsm reigns in the head, and love in
heart, the man is ever ready to do
good; order and peace reign around,
and sin and sorrow are almost un-
known. ~

What a Half Acre win Do.

A shoemaker over in Jersey bought
a halfacre lot. He was fond of fruit
and read the papers. The soil was
clay, and he selected fruit suitable to
the climate. He built house and
put his land into condition to pro.
duce fruit. He had no manure but
the droppings of street cattle. In his
leisure he brought from the woods
bark, rotten wood, moss and leaf.
mold, which he mixed with the soil
three feet deep. This was done by
degrees, and as fast as the ground was
prepared he planted fruit. He be-
come so interested and successful that
he retired from the cobbler's bench.
was his neighbor and knew him
intimately. His halt acre supported
himself and wife comfortably-almost
in elegance. She had no servant, and
had plenty of time to cultivate
flowers. Strangers inquired about
their beautiful home. Isabel grapes
and common currants formed the
bulk of his fruit. With a better selec-
ton his income would have been
larger. Others had the same SUCCESS
on small pieces of ground. One 1
knew who supported his family on an
acre. Half of his was grapes, the
crop of which in one season sold for
$500, and he had no bills to pay.
All this can be done in the South,
and even more. But we lack market
faSilitics. In the North railroad and
steamboat companies understand and
are awake to their true interest, and
furnish every facility for rapid, safe
and cheap transportation. In the
South there is almost nothing of the
sort. We are cursed with monopolies.
Last year, owing to the miserable
system of utter disregard for the
interests of producers, which obtains
here, the proceeds of tho peach crop
were so small that probably but few
will venture this year to send peaches
North. Fruit is handled carelessly
like travellers baggage. The railroad
and steamboat connections arc incom-
plete the agents are often discourte-
GUS; have no more manners than an
ELEPHANT, and both the companies
and growers of fruit suffer. Passen-
gers even are sometimes treated like
baggage.

ABOUT MoTHs.-To preserve cloth.
ing and furs from moths, the Boston
Cuttivafor says:
lnclosc them in moth-proof box,
no matter whether made of white
paper or white pine, before any eggs
are laid on them by carly Spring
moths. We know this to be true.
The notion of having a trunk made OF
some particular kind Of wood for this
purpose, is CANNON. Furs or
woolens, put away in Spring-time, be-
fore moth-eggs are laid, into boxes,
trunks, drawers, or closets, even
where moths can not enter, will be
safe from the ravages of moth-worms,
provided none were in them that
wsro laid late in the autumn, for they
are not of spontaneous production"

Tunne1llng under the Sea, =.
a. scheme has BEEN = 'nronoaed e.

a scheme has BEEN proposed for
unitibg ireland and Scotland, so as to
do away with tho necessity of making
"a sea passage altogether. The en-
trance. to the railway. tunnel, by it is
to behcconplished, on tho Irish side
is to be from q. point about midway
Cushenden and Cushendall, on the
coast of Antrim, and on the Scotch
side, at Glenstrone, from whence it
would run through the head of the
Null oof Cahtyre. The total length
Of the tunnel under the water would
be fourteen miles three furlongs, and
it is said that the ground through
which it would have to be made is ex-
actly suietd for tunnelling operations,
and the sandstone for. lining it can be
had in any quantity on tho Irish side.
1t is proposed, however, to lay down
three lines Of rails to accommodate
wide and narrow guage carriages.
The gradient at the entrance of the
tunnel On the Irish side would be
one in sixty for about FIVE miles it
would then fall to one in eighty-two
for about half that distance, and one
in seven hundred and seventy-three
for about five miles in the centre of
the tunnel under the water, rising
from that one in TWO hundred and
seventy-two, then to one in one hun
dred and thirteen, then to one in sixty
for about the same distance as on the
Irish side, which continues to the en-
trance of the tunnel on the Scotch
side. The estimated time that would
be occupied in completing the tunnel
is, allowing for all contingencies,
under six years, and the cost under
four and a quarter millions. TO pay
dividend Of five per cent, the week
~ earning must be forty-two pounds
per mile, and an estimate is appended
to show that the gross earnings would
be largely in excess of this amount,
and that the mineral resources of the
land in the immediate vicinity of the
Irish end Of the tunnel would be i'm
menseiy developed. Nobody will be
disposed to deny that railway CON-
munieation between the two countries
would be very desirable thing if it
can bs accomplished.-CasselPs Maga-

| The ANGLICAN CLERaY-THE AP-
PRoAcH1Na GcuMEN1cAL COUNCIL AT
RoME.-A very Important if true.
bit Of news comes to us by the last
English mail--the news, namely ::
. that "a considerable number" of An
glican clergymeh have determined to
attend the Forthcoming ."Gcncral'
Council at Romo, in order to clay
their difficulties before the assembled
prclates of the Universal Church.
Their earnest DESIRE" it seems, is to
be united to Rome, but their chief
difficulty is that they have perfect
faith in the validity of their orders,
and believe that it would be sacrilege
either to submit to reordination or to
revert to the position of laymen. A
special committee has been appointed
at Rome to deal with tho subject OF
Anglican orders, and our conten. po-
rary has no doubt that the reverend
pilgrims will have all their doubts set
at rest. AS the ultimate result of this
mission to Rome, the London Weekly
Register-a well-informed Roman
Catholic journal-anticipates that
there will be can accession to the
Church Of some Of the best and most
pious Anglican clergy, and that many
amongst the laity will follow their
example. This is curious proceed
ing, and will be watched with no
little interest on this side of the
Atlantic. The American branch of
the Anglican Church happens to have
not few clergymen within it's pale,
who seem to be troubled with the
same difficulties as those which aff1ict
the brethren abroad, and if there is to
be, on the part Of the latter, any
travelling Romeward. it would not be
surprising if they should have COM
pany from this side.-N. Y. Express.
OF course the American clergy will
follow suit.

SUFFRAGE in this country eomes natu-
rally from various sources the sug-
gestion Of an empire, The two
things, though seeming wide apart,
are really correlated. It would be no
paradox to say that an empire is as
legitimately as republic the product
of universal suffrage. Look at
France. There is country where
the suffrage is universal, and there is
an empire in which the power of one
man is greater and more absolute than
in any other European nation, save
Russia. In this connection it is not
necessary to contrast the merits and
faults of the Napoleonic Government.
Our business is only to show that
there is an empirein in which the right
to vote is in fact as freely exercised as
in this Republic and we only desire
to call the attention of thoughtful
persons TO the comparatively unsus-
pected dangers which lurk at the
bottom of that mnch overpraised in
stitution-uniyersal suffrage. so far
from being guarantee of our liber-
ties, 1t. may. prove their destruction.
Instead Of ensuring the perpetuity of
the Presidential Office and the other
present republican forms, it may, if
unchecked, some day put an Emperor
on throne, make tho. Senate a mere
pension house for imperial favofites,
and pack Congress with the willing
tools. Of some daring genius who has
won the hearts of the people and
clothed himself with the imperial
Universal suffrage actually makes
this astounding revolution in our sys

Transplantipg Trees.

| A Louisville Ky.) correspondent o.
sends us a slip from the New York
Observer, arguing on tho great impor.
tanee of tho tap root Our CORES.
pondent asks our opinion. In answer
to another correspondent, we have
already said what wo think of this
tap root question. The Observe,
says:
Hundreds of fruit growers have
learned, at a costly rate, that when
the tap root is severed, we interfere
with the habit of the growing plant
or tree. Thousands upon thousands
of fruit trees of all kinds, grape
vines, expensive evergreen trees, and
particularly nut bearing trees, have
been transplanted after the tap root
was severed, have lived and grown a
trife each year, for a few years, and
then appeared to be affected with
some disease, which prevented the
usual luxuriance and productiveness.
The tap root was gone. If the root
were not essential to the thrift and
life of tree, nature would not have
that tree or vine to send down such a
root.
Practical fruit growers are waking
up to the Importance of this subject,
and purchasers arc beginning to see
their error. Many of our agricultural
editors, who once relied upon inter-
ested persons, when they said, "let
tho tap root be cut off," now take
sides with the backwoodsman, who
contends that the tap root is essential
to the life and health of the tree, as it
goes down deep into the earth to sup
ply the growing stem with moisture
and mineral matter during the dry
season of the year, when the lateral
roots cannot find half so much mois-
ture as escapes from the leaves.
Therefore, every tap root should be
retained as perfect as practicable, and
be encouraged to grow. A large hole
should be made with a crow-bar,
several feet deep, where the tree or
vine is to stand, and lateral root
(when there is no tap root), should be
encouraged to grow in the hole.
1t may be sufficient answer to
this, perhaps, to say that, if "agricul-
tural editors" would rely on their own
knowledge and experience, instead of
the "knowledge Of Interested per-
sons" or any other persons, they
would find that many "fruit" and
"evergreens," "grape vines," &C., have
no tap roots. We begin to think that
some who are arguing about this, do
not even know what tap roots are
