1 have seen the "Big Grape Vine. !"
The owner saws it is forty-two years
old. The trunk is nearly circular, and
at ten inches from the ground is tnir-
ty-nine inches in circumference at
three feet from the ground, the small
est place, it measures thirty-six inch
es; and at five feet it measures forty
six inches In circumference: immedi-
ately above this measurement it swells
out much larger and parts into
branches.
1t is supported by framework six
to seven feet high, containing sixty
six posts from three to eight inches in
diameter, and covers 1920 square feet
of ground. Several of the limbs are
fnine feet in circumference at thirty
feet from the trunk, and one of the
branches at forty-eight feet from the
| trunk is seven and three-eighth inch
es in circumference.
1t has now over 5000 clusters of
grapes on it growing finely. The
owner, and others familiar with it,
tell me that the clusters will average,
when ripe, about two and a half
pounds each; but call them two
pounds each, and it makes over five
tons of fruit, from one vine in one
year. Several persons made estimates
on it last year, when the fruit was rip
ening, by counting the clusters on ten
feet square, and weighing some ave-
rage clusters. Their estimate varies
from four to six tons. This is proba-
bly, the largest grape vine in the
world -

ABOUT PLANTS.

In late issues of he-GdTdne7's
Monthly the editor lays down these
ten articles of faith in regard to the
SO plain and we truly believe incon-
trovertible, that we are unwilling that
our readers should not have the bene-
fit of them: gr-s
l. That plants do not lie dormant
or hibernate in the winter.
2. That a plant must maintain heat
to retain its vitality through winter.
8. To circulate heat through its
system in winter, to prevent its parts
from freezing, it can only do SO
through the medium of moisture.
4. That the dryer element invaria-
bly, abstracts from the moisture
The atmosphere repels moisture from
the plants in>Winter as we'll as in sum-
mer, in proportion to its dryRess,
5. The dryness of the atmosphere is
usually in proportion to the loWness
of the temperature.
6. The more rapidly surface is
made to pass over q moister one, the
greater the loss by the latter.
Z. There can be no vitality without
q waste of heat.
s. There can be no waste of heat in
living things, without waste ot
moisture.
9. To supply this waste, moisture
must be drawn into the plant al
through winter, even though the
roots be encased in frost.
10. When evaporation goes on fas
ter than the capacity of the roots tc
supply it, death must ensue.

SAVING SEED,-Seedc corn should be
marked before it is cut up, by select
ing the best ear where two sor more
are on the stalk, and tying strings
tightly around them. They will thus
be found and thrown aside at husk-
ing. Seed potatoes should be selected
from those that have healthy stalks,
and ripen first. 1t is very we'll to go
through and dig from hills~before the
general digging, If the whole crop is
to be saved for seed, or ii it Is desira-
BILE to keep it pure, go through care
fully, aud dig any suspicious or pecu-
liar looking hills. Seed of all kinds
should be kept where it is dry, in net
baskets, loosely covered pals, or in
net bags, or tied together and sus-
pended. Close vessels are often fatal
to seeds, causing them to mould or
heat. {sY

THE SONG OF THE SEXTON.

Nigh to the grave that was newly made,
Leaned q sexton old on his earth-worn spade;
His work was done, and he paused to wait
The funeral train through the open gate.
A relic of by-gone days was he,
And his locks were as white as the foamIng sea; /;
And these words came from his lips so thin;
gather them in! gather them ini
gather them in, both man and boy;
Year after year, OF grief and joy.
I've builded the houses that lie around
On every nook of this burial ground.
Mother and daughter. father and son,
Come to my solitude one by one.
Come the stranger, or come the kin,
gather them ini gather them inI .Es
Many are with me, but still I'm alone;
Pm keeping the dead. and make my throne
On a monument slab of marble cold,
And my scepter Of rule is the spade hold.
Come they from cottage or come they from hall,
Mankind are my subjects all. all, all!
Let them lOiter in pleasure, or tOyfully spin,
gather them in gather them in
gather them in and their final rest
Is low down in the churchy ard 8 breast,
The sexton ceased, and the funeral train
Wound slowly DER the silent plain;
And said in my heart. when time is told,
A mightier voice than that sexton old
Will sound DER the last trumpet's dreadful din,
gather them inl gather them in
