N. THEIRS IDEAS RIDICULED.

THE STORY OF NJ THEIRS PROGRAMME IN RUSSIA UN.
FOUNDED.
The statement In the London Times to-day that
Theirs is empowered to OFFER the Russian govern
ment full latitude OF conquest in tho East as the
price OF intervention in the Franco Prussian war Is
utterly unfOunded. Were Russia disposed she re-
quires consent from France, who II now beaten
and powerless.
waA1 WILL HArrxr ~ PANS HOLDS OUT THREE
MONTHS.
The fall OF Strasbourg Is considered to make but
little difescnce I'm the question as to the power of
resistance of France. Everything turns on the
ability OF Paris to defend Itself three months. That
time gained the Prussans will never retain fort In
French territory. The whole country is rising IN
arms.
'vArN HOPES" OF FRANCE.
The Provincial correspondence OF Berlin, says
France vainly hopes convert defeat into victory
Further carnage would therefore be vain and i'm
pious. Count Bismarck demands first OF the French
government responsibility. France, refusing that,
must take the consequences

hesion TO such future government az may

cludes by declaring that all his efforts will be
directed to obtaining an honorable and durable
peace with Prussia and to establishing order In
France

English journals are filed with reports Of military
movements In different parts Of France.
So FRENCH STRATEGY.
It Is believed that the French forces In Tours will
evacuate the city on the departure Of the govern.
ment officials and retire to some point further SOUTH
with the hope Of drawing the Prussian cavalry
greater distance from the German army besieging
Paris, and striking 1t an effective blow as soon as
sufficient force has been gathered to oppose It's fur
Their progress.
FRENCH DEFENSIVE MEASURES.
The provisional government OF France has decided
at the last moment to put stop TO the egress of
Frenchmen from the country, and to impress every
able-bodied male into the service. The government
action is regarded here a. farce, as the au.
thorities possess no means OF enforcing the law.
PRUssIAN MINOR OPERATIONS AROUND PARIS.
The Prussians opened fire on the gunboats while
passing st. Cloud recently, killing and woundnQ
several OF the French.
The Frussians are erecting battery at Sevres.
Alively fire was opened on them from Fort dIssy
while they were at their work.
SITUATION OF THE PEOPLE AND PLACES AROUND

The people residing in the suburbs OF Paris have

driven by the lawlessness Of the Mobiles.

THE REPORTED FRENCH VICTORIES REGARDED WITH
SUSPICION.
The news OF French advantages on the 22d,
claimed to have been received by carrier pigeons
and balloon, is regarded by some with suspicion as
a Prussan invention from Ferrieres yet 1t is very

The citizens OF Mezieres and Charleville are III.
gitives. Many Of them have been welcomed by

soIIne Garden HINTS.

The Germantown Telegraph says
At this time, everybody who has
garden is busily at work in 1t, fol
even few days lost now with some
crops cannot be recovered.
Having planted the early Peas, th'
next varieties in order are the Dwar
Blue Imperial, Large White Marrow
fat, Champion of England, and Eu
genie. If a selection from these il
made, let it be the Imperial and Eu
genie.
Onions (white is the best ough
to be in by this time.
Lettuce for the first crop to cnt
young should be the Early Curled
Sifesfan sown thickly in warm Dor
der. This should be followed and
set out ct once and at intervals two
or three times for heading, by the
Early Cabbage Lettuce, which is the
standard variety and superior to any
other. This must be followed by the
Curled India, which heads later and
bears the hot sun.
The Early York Cabbage sown in
cold frames last autumn can now be
set out; the seed for plants of the
Curled Savoy, the Drumhead Savoy,
the common Drumhead and Flat
Dutch, or any other, if not already
sown, should be without delay, in q
rich warm border. For boiling
there is no cabbage to be compared
to the Curled Savoy, or for kraut to
the Drumhead Savoy, but they are
not profitable for marketing, and are
intended more for private consump-
ton.
Celery seed 1.-THE White Solid J
should be sown for plants, in rich,
finely pulverized bed, and when up,
well attended to.
The Early Horn Carrot, Satisfy,
Leek, Sugar Parsnip, Peppers, Early
Rsdishes (Long Scarlet Short Top,
White Turnip- Rooted and Red Tur-
nip Rooted are the best early kinds, }
Early Bush Squash, Early Flat
Dutch Turnip, &c., must be sOwn as
early as posslDle.
Rhubarb can still be transplanted,
but no time is to be lost.
Don't forget the Parsley and Mar
igold, and the little beds of herbs,
such us Sage, Sweet Margorum,
Summer Savory, Thyme, Rosemary,
Fennel, Lavender, DC.
The Raspberries being staked up
firmly, fork the ground up carefully

have often advised, Raspberries like
shade iso do Currants, Gooseberries |
and Blackberries) and a cool, moist
soil, and can be put where no vege-
table crop win grow. Keep clear of
weeds. If the gooseberry is in dan
ger Of mildew, moisten the mulching |
with pretty strong salt water, applied
with q watering pot. Houghton's
Seeding, however, rarely if ever
mildews, and though small is the
best variety.
All grass and weeds around the
trunks of fruit trees, unless large
ones, should be removed, and the
ground for space of two or three
feet around should be forked over.
When trees reach some eight inches
in diameter we do not think this is
necessary. They are old enough to
take care of themselves, but they
should be manured like any other
crop of the farm or garden, and it
will be found to pay equally well.

SowING SMALL SEED.-Few per-
sons except professional florists are
sufficiently careful in sowing small
seed. The soil, as general thing,
is not thoroughly pulverized, and the
seed are covered too deep to insure
growth. A half inch in depth is as
much as should b e placed over any
flower seeds, and many of them
ought not to be covered more than
half that depth, and after sowing,
the surface of the soil, if light,
should be gently packed dewn
with either hoe or spade, as this
will pressit closely to the seed, and
in a measure prevent drying. Sue
cess or failure in growing plants usu-
ally depends upon some little differ
ence in the way the soil is manipu-
lated. The professional florist ap-
parently does every thing in the
most hurried and careless manner,
but he never omits those important
operations which insure the life and
future growth of his plants.
