The whole number of deaths in Boston for the

A. The hearing before the committee on the
state constablery, last week, Clark Jilson, clerk
M the municipal court of Worcester, testified
fayorably OF Constable Hair, and unfavoraby of
Dan Green. Mr.. Aldrich offered TO call wit
nesses from Worcester to prove the good stand
ing Of the state police and its efficacy, but finally
concluded it was not necessary.
A few days ago, a respectable looking man
appeared at Boston police station, in a state of
partial intoXtcation, and as he had a gold watch
and other yaluables in his possession, the officer
in charge advised him to go home Immediately.
He was absent about twenty minutes, when he
was found on the street, reclining in the mud.
He was taken to the police station, and turned
out to be an attorney and counsellor at law and
notary public who practices in town on the
line of the Vermont and Massachusetts road in
this state.
George B. Woods, fer many years connected
with the editorial department of the Boston
Daily Advertiser died last week. For several
months it has been apparent that his disease,
consumption, had taken fatal hold, and he pass
ed away, in the very prime of early manhood
He was not only versatile and agreeable writer,
but he was journalist VINO was aDle 10 Ullug
his talents TO bear upon question, and to adapt
himself with wonderful facility to the varied de-
mands of his editorial position, Over the sigma
ture of ''Wachuset" he wrota entertaining and
instructive letters, while his lighter essays and
tales in the Atlantic and Old and New were of
rare merit. Mr.. Woods was for time the edi-
tor of the Boston Saturday Evening Gazette, but
since 1864 he has been, with the exception of his
brief editorship of the Gazette, connected with
the Advertiser. He leaves wife and child.
In the Boston municipal court, last week, a
young man named Edward }. Shields, Especial"
of the "Irish People" of New York, as indicated
by his card, was arraigned for drunkenness. He
was represented by counsel, and fatty denied
the charge. Two policemen swore that "he was
staggering drunk and his breath smelt OF
liquor" Then half dozen other persons, some
of whom were near him at the time of his arrest
but perfect strangers to him, and Others who
were with him for four or FIVE hours before the
arrest, swore that he was not drunk in the least
and he was discharged. But here's the secret
Back of all this was what the lawyers call "the
old dodge" He was arrested on another COM
plant which could not be made to stick, so it
was supplemented with the charge of drunken
ness.

Plymouth is projecting grand levee to raise
funds for watering the streets during the COM
ING season.
Mr.. Otis F. Moulton in years past a popular
writing master in Plymouth county, but of late
a resident Of Washington, committed suicide in
that city on the 18th ult., by cutting his throat
during temporary fit of insanity.
The firm of Hooper, Townsend & Co., Bridge
warer, have already prepared kiln of 900
bricks, about $4,000 of which were made in
March, 1t was the first March in which they
could make bricks for many years. Last year
they made over 1900, 600 bricks.

has listened to since the retirement of Rev. Mr.
Walker, already numbering over eighty, bids
fair to be increased.
During the year ending April %, 1871, there
were shipped from North Bridgewater 72,471
cases of boots and shoes. The number manu-
featured at Campello would probably bring the
gross products of the town in this department
of business up to 1000 cases

extended from Dover to Moosehead Lake, and is
destined to largely increase the business of Ban

Lu.,ar InfInence ON vegetation


. According to a North Carolina CORES
pondent the influence of the moon on
vegetation may be determined by try
ing the following riment
Take anySgiven quantity of common
peas, and divide the same. into four
parts, keeping them separate. Then,
on any ground at all fit for vegetation,
when the season approaches, SOW the
first parcel on the first or second day of
the new moon; the second parcel sow
near the same spot on the first or sec
ond day of the second quarter; the
the third parcel SOW on the second or
third day before the full moon; and last
sow the fourth parcel on the second or
third day before the moon is cut. Now
the first parcel, sown under the new
moon, will grow very fast, blossom
beautifully, but not bear much; the
second will blossom and bear beauti-
fully but little; the third parcei will
not only blossom most beautifully, but
will bear fruit in abundance; and the
fourth and last parcel will scarcely rise
from the ground. Likewise all fruit
trees set at the new moon blossom, but
three days before the full moon bear
abundantiy. In pruning trees the effect
takes place, for a tree pruned at the
new moon will shoot, forth branches
but will prove unproductive; but if
pruned at the full it will bear abund-
antiy.

The Germantown Telegraph says that
in selecting old apple or pear trees for
the purpose of grating, such as retain
their foliage late in the Autumn, should
be chosen. This will insure the grow
ing of the graft sufficiently long to
establish it firmly, and cause it to re-
main unaffected during the Winter
Where trees that shed theirleaves early
are grated, the gratis bear few speci-
mems, and then die. In grating old
trees, boughs six inches in diameter
may be used. But such boughs only
should be selected, as have smooth
bark. Saw at an angle, SO that all
moisture will run on.

a correspondent of the Southern PSaa-
ter and Farmer says that he gratis the
grape vine successfully in the following
manner: In early Winter, or in the
Fall, after the sap has ceased to flow,
or in early Spring, cut the vine to be
grated, down almost even with ground;
then split the stock, and insert one or
two gratis, which should be wedge
shaped, and as fresh as convenient;
mound up the soil on all sides of the
graft, covering the junction with two
or three inches of soil. Then leave it
in this condition.. If well done no fear
of failure need be eapprehended. ~.
