Planting Trees After They Have

1t is not generally known that by
peculiar course Of treatment trees
may be as successfully removed for 6

This popularity of management con.
sists in taking off the expanded
leaves, and shortening back q few
inches of the shoots. When this
practice is followed trees rarely fail,
indeed many trees move more sue
cessfully so treated than at any other
season of the year. The roots seem
TO push forth new fibres immediate
ly, and sustain the heavy demand for
moisture which is always the diff

PHILOSOPHY" of the thing is that
evaporation has been greater than
the supply of sap could sustain,
1t is well in transplanting at any
reason to remember this bit of "phi-

roots dry, even for moment, if it
can be helped, because every wither-

induces a rapid production of roots,

Thoughts for Winter Evenings.

One has to toll hard in proportion as
he is ignorant. To be doomed to the
drudgery of slave, who is driven
under the lash, is not to lead very
happy or a very honorable life.
That what we have said is true is
apparent to every one on looking
around him. Who is he that works
the hardest and gets the least for what
he does? Is it not the most Ignorant
or the most reckless? A? Who are they
who can live by comfortable labor,
without Overworking, and when old
enough TO take their ease are able to
do so?
Are they not more intelligent, who
have known from early life that it
was necessary to ecOnOmiZe in order
to ''get a start in the world, and who
have been able to work to the best ad-
vantage in all they have attempted {?
Does not an intelligent man know
how to make good farm out Ofa poor
one ?-One made poor, perhaps, by
some one who was too ignorant to hold
his own, and who was doomed to
drudgery, penury and discomfort all
his days.
These things being so, it follows
that the best of all capital with which
to begin independent life is intelli-
gence. The more thought and knowl-
edge one has, the more certain his
success and enjoyment. Next to bodi-
ly health, all depends upon the mind.
We therefore, note some foolish
ways in which people, and especially
young people, spend their leisure
time:
l. Going to the town village, or
cross roads, to sit out the evening in
vulgar talk, smoking cigars and drink
ing-beer at first, and then something
stronger.
3. Getting cards, checker boards,
&C., and wasting the long winter
evenings in games for amusement, at
first and then something else.
8. Getting up parties, balls, &c, in
order to have a good time, generally.
In this way, it is the easiest way in
the world for a young. man to waste
all the leisure of early life, and even
if he get through without becoming
the slave of bad habit, he has failed
to form a good habit of self-imprOve-
ment. He has missed his OppOrtu-
tunity," and nothing better than hard
work, with very small reward is his
destiny.
On the contrary, the largest part of
his leisure hours should be devoted to
his intellectual and moral culture.
Neither the young man or theyoung
woman, the boy or the girl, has any
time to waste at the village. Nothing
except business, or literary society,
should draw one to town. The fortune
the respectability and the happiness
of every one depends upon the right
improvement early life.

Two Cnrions NeedIea

The King of Prussia recently visit.
ed q needle mandatory, in his king
dom, in order to see what machinery
combined with the human hand could
produce. He was shown a number ot
superfine needles, thousands of which
together did not weigh half an ounce
and marveled how such minute OBJ
jects could be pierced with an eye.
But he was to see that in this respect,
even something finer and more per-
feet could be created. The bOrer-thai
is the workman whose business it is
to bore the eyes in these needles-ask-
ed for hair from the monarch's head.
1t was readily given with a smile.
He placed it at once under the boring
machine, made hole in it with the
greatest care, furnished it with a
thread, and then handed the curious
needle to the astonished King.
The second curious needle is in the
possession of Queen Victoria. 1t was
made at the celebrated needle manu-
tory, at Redditch, and represents the
column of Of TTajan in miniature.
This we'll known Roman column is
adorned with numerous scenes in
sculpture, which immortalize Traian's s
heroic actions in war. On this dimin-
utive needle scenes in the life OfQueen
Victoria are represented in relief, but
so finely cut and so small that it re-
quires . magnifying glass to see them.
The Victoria Needle can be, moreover
be opened it contains a number of
needles of smaller size, which are
equally adorned with scenes in re-
lief.

Origin of Odd Fellows.

It has been supposed by many that
the origin Of the society Of Odd Fell
lows-Or rather the OrganizatiOn-was
of comparatively modern date. They
Will be somewhat surprised, however,
says the Cincinnati Times, to learn
that its origin dates as far back as Ne
70, and was established by the RO-
man soldiers in the year '55. At that
time they were called "FelIow Cut
Zens." The present name was given
them by Titus Cesar, twenty-four
years afterward and they were so
called from the singular character Of
their meetings, and from their know
ing each other by mysterious signs
and language. AT the same time he
| presented them with a dispensatiOn,
engraved on a plate of gold, bearing
| different emblems Of morality. In
the fifth century the order was estab-
lished in the Spanish DOminiOns, and
in Portugal in the sixth century. It
did not reach France and England
until the 11th century. 1t was then
established in the latter country by
John de Nile, who, assisted by five
knights from France, formed a Grand
Lodge in London. This ancient fra
teInity has now its Lodges in every
quarter Of the globe, and, by its USE
fulnes and bel evOlent character, COM
mRnds the respect and cOuntenance Of
all who are acquainted with its nature
and purpose.
Those upon whose information reli-
lance may be placed, give credit 70
Baltimore for first introducing Odd
Fellowship into the United States,
and to Grand Sire Thomas Wildly
belongs the honor.
