ASSEMBLY HALL.-Rose and Harry
Watkins had a splendid audience last night.
The play, Old Virginia as it Was' was
received with rapturous applause. Many
of the scenes, incidents, and illusions
were true to nature, and alternately brought
tears and smiles from the audience.
The bill for tonight is Mollie Brown /;
or, The Return Of the Wanderer," with
several songs by Rose Watkins. 1t prom
ises fine entertainment, and no doubt will
draw another full house. For the benefit
of strangers now in tho city we would say
that the hall is located on Eighth street,
between Grace and Franklin, and is one of
the most comfortable places Of amusement
in the city.
The correspondence to be found in
another column, rendering Rose and Harry
Watkins a complimentary benefit ON Friday
night, speaks for itself. 1t will be seen that
these favorites will again appear in Trod-
den Down.

Cattle 4 iiiiag Trees.

It is a fact that all careful farmer.
must have noticed, that a tree, seeming
ever 50 thrifty, aud Of whatever kind
to which cattle have access, and under
which they stand viii very soon die in
the case of solitary shade trees in pastures
or by the road side. This is common
occurrence, and the question naturally
arises, Why is it? First, rubbing a tree
by the accks of cattle is highly injurious
and if PERSISTED in. will CONNOLLY des-
troy them sooner CT later: but if the
body Of he trees be caused so that their
pecks cannot touch it death will ensuo
just as certainly if they are allowed to
tramrle around it. But why should
itanpling the earth destroy The trees?
The reason is one of wise and important
application to the laws Of vegetable
growth. TAs roots of plants need the air
iast as much as the leaves and branches.
Their ease is similar to that of fishes,
which, though they have water. they
must have air also. viz: just about as
much parmeates the water. If it be all
shut off, so none which is fresh can &c.
to them, they will exhaust the supply en-
hand and then die for want of more.
So the roots Of trees and vegetables
want air. When the earth is 10 a nor
nal or natural condition, it is full. Of
champ els by which air gets 10 them. But
