Sadowa and Sedan are places that
will long have a melancholy interest
in Austrian and French history
They mark the tombs of imperialism
and despotism and let US hope that
from the sepulchres the Old World
may receive a new birth OF freedom.
Sadowa humbled Austria in the dust,
and Sedan ended the reign of des-
pot. From the harvest of these two
great battle fields the world ought
to reap the benefits of a wider broth
erhood, and enduring order and
peace.

EEIt it said Of Wendell Phillips,
that he ais the first candidate for
gubernatorial honors in Massachu-
sets who has never voted" From
the peculiarities of the man, this is
probably true and yet voting is as
much the duty as the right of every
citizen. 1t seems little strange for
q candidate to be asking the votes OF
others who never voted himself.

RG- The Canadian Militia Depart
ment is preparing an estimate of the
cost Of the several raids on Canada
by the Fenians. The calculations, it
is understood, embrace the cost of
calling out volunteers, moving them
to the front, and actual damage done
by tho Fenians. These will be pre-
sented for liquidation to the imperial
government, which will make de-
mand on the United States for COM

The New Hampshire Mirror and
Farmer says that Mr.. Sullivan Hutch
inson, of Bristol, Pennsylvania, has re-
Gently patented a process for making fruit
trees from limbs. Mr.. Hutchinson claims
that by this method, such fruit bearing
limbs as may be conveniently spared, can
be transformed into Independent trees,
that will continue bearing from the first
year regularly, as before. The process is
as follows:
Into the limb, which is intended for
the future tree, small roots are grated,
or in some way inserted under the bark
Just where the limb is to be severed
Such limbs are required to be from one
to two inches in diameter Below these
roots the branch is girdled. A smaller
box filled with earth is enclosed about the
limb in position to embrace these roots.
During the summer these roots grow, and
the connection is formed with the limb
above. The following fall the box will
be filled with roots, when the limb may
be cut from the parent stock cnd set in
the ground. It's claimed that the next
year this new tree viii! bear fruit Just as
though it had not been severed from the
original tree.

Fruit Grating.

AS the time will soon be here when
grating will be in order, we repeat our
former advice that every farmer should
do his own grating 1t is a very easy
operation when once understood, and this
is readily done by seeing it done. A
sharp penknife and good fine saw are
indispensable. Splitting the stalk so that
the bark shall not be bruised-and sha-
ping the scion wedge fashion both ways,
preserving also the bark uniniured-and
placing the rim of the wood Of both stock
and scion exactly together, so that the
sap can intermingle-there is no danger
of failure if properly waxed. We make a
shoulder to the graft and think it adds to
the certainty ofsuccess, though it probably
weakens it. We prefer also two eyes or
buds to graft and would rather have only
one than more than two. One years
wood hould always be used when it can
be obtained, as it is more certain to take
and grows more vigorously.
We wish to remind those preparing
grating wax, that we have found four
parts of rosin, one part of beeswax, aud
one part of beef tallow, to be the best
proportions. Melt them together in IL
skillet, (Which is the bost,) or lineup
and mix well. 1t should remain in the
vessel and be used as needed. Twenty or
thirty scions can be waxed with one heat
ing up. When much grating is to be
done, little fire for heating the wax
should be made on the spot, between two
bricks or stones.
We have seen various preparations
for making grating wax and we believe
we have tried them all, but prefer our

MsectiUOrouS Birds.

Mr.. Ira Brewer, of Binghamton, N. Y,
wrote about the disappearance of the
woodpecker in his vicinity, and the con-
sequent destruction by the worm of fruit
which had followed
Mr. Charles Carlisle, of Woodstock, Vt,
stated in communication that the small
fruit-growers in his section considered
the bluejay to be a great friend, and he
paid to feed them. He allowed the birds
free access to his corn-crib in the winter,
and they reciprocated by acting as a po-
lice force against the instrusiye worm in
the summer.
DR.. Trimble remarked that he did not
know what to say in regard to the blue
jay. The opinions were conflicting, He
wished, however, to say n word in favor
of the woodpecker, and especially the
downy species. They were the most
valuable OF all birds, and the good work
they performed for the fruit-grower could
not be estimated.
Mr. Curtiss observed that he fully in
dorsed DR.. Trimble's statements.

Breaking ND Hard Roch$.

A communication was read from Mr..
E. NJ. Dyer, Of Bennington, Vermont,
who said that he had upon his farm huge
hinty rocks, which were so hard in their
substance that it was impossible to drill
into them The bars used for the pur-
pose invariably broke or bent, and he de-
sired to know how it was possible for him
to remove them; if anything could be
used on the surface to explode them.
Mr.. Robert j. Dodge said that nitro
glycerine placed upon the surface would
break them up.
DR.. Trimbc stated that he would not
advise the use Of nitro-alycerne. In his
early days he had placed burning fagots
upon hard rocks, and after allowing them
to get thoroughly heated, poured on cold
water, which would invariably break up
the hardest substances.
