Madrid, April 12.-An armed band OF
Republicans has appeared at Vandrell,
seventeen miles from Sarramossa. A
party of Carlists, 250 in number,
stopped train on the railroad, Hnd
p!nndered the goods in the express car,
but did not modest the passengers. They
also out the telegraph wires, and COM
munication with Barcelona is interrupt
ed. The Governor Of Corona telegraphs
that troops are operating against the in
surgents in that province. The result is
unknown. The iron workers in the
city of Barcelona have struck work. The
landed proprietors of the province have
organized parties to pursue the maraud-
ers who infest the country. Fights
have already taken place with the rob-
bers, and men have been killed on both
sides. Official reports from Catalonia
say the troops are active all along the
frontier. When bands of Carlists ap-
pear, the troops are Immediately sent in
pursuit. and in quiet districts, where
there is danger of rising, flying
columns scour the country. The returns
of the recent election are nearly all in.
They show that the Cortes will stand
Ministerialists $40; opposition 121.
MADRID, April 13.-The military au-
thorities Of Catalonia, Arragon and Ma
varre report 70 the Government tha: the
movements of the Carlists in those pro-
vinces are unimportant. Ample precau-
tions have been taken to prevent any
rising that may be attempted in Grenade.
Columns OF troops soour the country in
that province, and any demonstrations
which may be m sde will be speedily sup
pressed. The Government has ordered
garrisons in Basque Province to be in
creased. The IBERIA newspaper OF this
city says the operations of the Carlists
have been temporarily suspended, but
will soon be resumed.

Fruit trees Of all kinds need careful
cultivation in order that they may grow
and be fruitful. Grass and weeds choke
them into disease and barrenness as
much as they will corn and potatoes.
Clean up the unhealthy trees, wash
them in a strong decoction OF soft soap.
remove the sol, grass and weeds for ten
feet around. and give your land good
dressing with barn manure, and your
trees will soon begin to thrive, and when
you get good blossom, fruit can be Sc

The result was the gir,lled limbs had
double the iruit to be found on any other
parts OF the trees, and the apples were
much larger and smoother. The next

on five other trees. The season was not
