The turf was then broken and turned this was
covered by six inches of sand. and then the vines
were planted. About two acres were planted last

season making noH about acres. About eighty
bushels of berries were gathered this season from

The Coming Winter-It will be "a Mild One.
Every year, as the season approaches, we have
predictions, from. those who profess to know,
that we shall have severe winter Whether it
is love of the marvellous and terrible, or an
interested wish on the part of some to hurry up
the investments in coal, and other Of the need
fuls of tight time, will not stop to consider,
but propose, as the field is open, to entermy lit
tie prediction in the opposite direction, and at
the risk of being denounced as one of those
''wlo prophesy unto the people smooth things"
to declare that all the signs indicate another mod
crate winter
Whether the hogs .'met" is big or little end

servaton teaches that the prevailing winds during
November influence the winter. Ii after every
rain during this month. it clears up - south

but if after every change 1t clears north about
nothing but an old saw. Yes, pretty old three
generations. at least, when it came to me, but
experience has proved it trne.
Any facts observation may hand down to lis,
which go to establish the laws that govern our
tickle climate are of interest, especially to the
farmer, and he of all others is in position to
study and develop that law, if he would look
less after the nards' of his pigs and poultry,

Catholic Colored Orphan school.

so DISTINCTION OF COLOR IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH.
There was quite large turnout on Sunday
afternoon of the Roman Catholic societies of
Baltimore to participate in the ceremonies
attendant upon the laying of the cornerstone of
building designed TO be used as school and
asylum for colored orphan children, to be under
the control and direction of the Oblate Sisters of
Providence, all of whom are colored. Archbishop
Spalding delivered brief address, during which
he said there was no distinction of color in the
Roman Catholic Church, and he reisiced to see
Americans, Germans, and Irishmen carrying out,
by their action the true principles Of that Church.
1t is mooted question, said the Archbishop,
whether the colored people of the Roman
Catholic faith should have separate churches or
whether they should remain, az now, in the
churches in which they enjoy common privileges
with all other Catholics. Heretofore they have
met at the same communion table, and have
participated, he said,in the same sacraments and
ordinances of that Church on terms of perfect
equality He thought that perhaps in some
localities, by reason of their increasing numbers
it may become desirable to gather them into
churches of their own During the course of
his remarks he incidentally remarked that when
he was student at college two OF his classmate s
were colored youths, and one Of them was his
particular friend

THURSDAY, DECEMBER |, 1870.


The French Army of the Loire is believed,
from the tenor of the advices received to oc-
cupy critical situation. Prince Frederick
Charles is attacking, with one force Of Russians,
on one flank, and the Duke of Mecklenburg is
similarly threatening the other, while the troops
under General Won Der Tam face the French
centre. At Tours it is believed that Paladnes
is equal in strategy to the dangers of his po-
sition, but that remains to be seen. Concerning
the battle fought on Monday, near Montarges,
the two parties give contradictory accounts, each
claiming the victory. The French report says
Tours, Nov. 2g-Yesterday the right wing of
the Army of the Loire having repulsed during
the previous day, several attempts of the enemy
to turn its flank, advanced to Glen and Mont
argis, and thence commenced movement
toward Pithiviers, in combination with the adj
vance of the right centre Of the army at Ar
thenay to the same point. While these move
ments are being made, detachments of the
enemy were in every case driven towards
Beaume, midway between Montargis and Pith-
iviers Here at q p. NJ, massed 10000 men.
The French assaulted the Prissian positions from
the south, capturing two guns. Atnightfall the
Germans seemed to be retreating further north.
The German losses during November q and IS
were very heavy.
On the other hand, the German statement
says
VERSAILLES, Nov. 29.--The French yesterday
attacked the Germans at Beaume, between
Montargis and Pithiviers, and were repulsed
Frederick Charles was present and directed the
operations. thousand prisoners fell into ouI
hands.

ION Monday and Tuesday, the forts around
Paris, particularly those to the South including
DIvry, Bcetre, Montrouge, Waves, D'Issy and

AS was expected by the Germans, this in
cessant firing was kept up merely to cover a
sorties in force. On Tuesday the Goth, the
Prnssians came out toward L'Hay, supported by
their gunboats in the Seine. At this point were
portion of the Sixth Prussian Corps which
they attacked firmly.
simultaneously, other sorties were made in
other direction, with view, probably, to prevent
reinforcementn to the Sixth Corps. In all cases.
however, the French were repulsed and driven
back behind their Notifications.

while the French lost sixteen hundred men, in
prisoners alone.
The French have been badly beaten near
Amiens. Their army WAS totally routed, and fled
toward Anas. -Four French guns were captured
in this engagement.
On Monday, the 2stll, the main body of the
French army attempted to force passage
toward Fontainebleu, by heavy and general
attack. They encountered the 10th Prissian
corps at Beaune, a little village in the Depart
ment of the Loire, 26 miles north of Orleans
The Pressans were quickly reinforced with
the fifth infantry and first cavalry divisions, and
the French onslaught was repulsed with heavy
