Protection of Peach Trees.

at the last meeting of the American In
stitute Farmers Club, in New York, j. A.
Wagner, of Suffolk county, Long Island,
explained his method of protecting the
peach tree from the grub. He tried iron
rust about the roots of the tree, and found
that the application not only destroyed the
grub, but stimulated the growth of the tree
He believed that old nails, filings, &c scat
tered about the orchard would drive off the
grubb and cure the yellows. Before he
used this remedy the fruit would not hang
till it rpened, now it clings tight until il is
plucked. He exhibited branches of young
trees that had been spoiled by the yellows
and the grub, and others grown under the
iron treatment.
DIR. Hcxamer remarked that in Morris
county, N. j., the iron treatment was not
only failure, but was positive detriment
to the soil.
Mr.. Crane, of Union county, N. j.,
thought that the disease called the yellows
has no existence. The death of the peach
trees in New Jersey is the result of extreme
cold.
The Chairman-How do you account for
the existence of the yellows down in Geor-
gia?
Mr.. .Crane--There are many places where
the disease is never heard of. The muck
which he takes from bog, through which
stream runs that is impregnated with iron,
is the lest manure he can get for his peach
trees.
Mr.. Bruen, for fifty years a peach grower
used iron by the wagon load. lie did not
believe in it, but thought there was not
enough attention said to pruning The
limbs of the young trees should be shortened
in, and it made no difference when the pru-
ning was done. He did not believe that iron
would kill the grub.

ideas or superstitious precepts. This is the
one cause Of their subsequent success in life.
As for pretenses put forward with respect to
the Bible, Judge Storer well said, in giving
his judgment upon the Cincinnati case, that
the mere reading of the Scriptures without
note or comment, could not be deemed an
act OF worship in its commonly received de-
finition. The same Judge added that its
prohibition might, for the same reasons as
those advanced by the Catholics, include
the works Of Josephus, Pope's Essay on
Man, Millions Paradise Lost. Hallam's Mid
die Ages, Prescoits Phillip H., and Motley
History Of the Netherlands, for each of
these offend some conscience on the ground
that private judgment is interfered with"
The Methodist Convention, which met last
month at Syracuse, passed resolution de-
claring that there is "no legitimate power
In any man, or combination OF men, to deny
the use of the Bible for any length of time
to any human being 1t is our national
book, and we will firmly and unitedly re-
sist all attempts to remove it from our COM
mon schools" The same determination will
animate the vast majority of the nation when
the significance of the plot forming comes
to be properly appreciated. This is one
OF those contests which we would fain have
avoided; but being once forced into it, we
must pay no heed to timid or timc-serving
counsels, but show our antagonists that we are
thoroughly in earnest, and that we are re-
solved, whatever may be threatened or done,
to preserve our common schools intact, and
the Bible with them. Our only motto now
must be. "No surrender"

song for the season, my dear, my dear,
A soIg for the sunshiny weather
And what does It matter the time o. the year,
When you and are togethers
A song for the summer, flying south,
A flittering gong to stay her!
And if were the bird with the golden mouth
would not care to delay her.
All the year round my skies are blue.
Into Your blue eyes gazing;
Shining, smiling, tender and true
Oh. these are the ones for praising!
The best Of mine that the year could claim
Were homage but halfhearted,
For know the brightness will be the same
When her bloom is all departed.
When out of the world the sunshine slips,
It's hoard the hearth-stone showeth;
The one light suffereth no eclipse,
Whatever the way 1t goeth.
It's you that's wearing the summers crown,
To you all sweet names gather;
It's you love when the snows are down
Oh, let me sing you rather!
For though whisper 1t unaware,
Your name is a spell that raises
All singing sprites that dwell in the air,
Making a sheaf Of praises.
A song to the youth our years above,
Folding all worlds in tether;
1t suits all seasons, my love, my love,
While you and arc tsgether.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

LIME FOR THE PENINSULA.
The Coatesville Union, of the 10Th,
says. the demand for lime, from the kilns
along the Wilmington and Reading Railroad
has increased very greatly, SO much SO that
one dealer has found 1t necessary to erect a
new perpetual kiln, twenty-six feet deep,
from which is drawn daily 200 bushels OF
LINE. His other kilns are kept constantly
going, and he is now turning out about
2I00 bushels per week. Orders are con-
stantly received from Maryland and Della
ware, and the demand is in excess of his
ability TO supply, but we understand he
contemplates erecting two more large kilns,
and expects to burn at least 100000 bushels
during the year.

one dozen of each kind, e rows), but more
than that is useless. Such trial-gardeu is
susceptible of testing blackberries, rasp-
berries, currants, &c., &C., and the advan-
tage of having them all in narrow bed is
much greater than when grown in the usual
method of long rows. Prepare good heavy
stakes, and after planning, give them two
coats of paint; the names being distinctly
