VARIETIES PRODUCED IN THE PEAx.-
NJ. Decaisnc, II French pomolosist, planted
seeds Of Beurrc Bose, Bell Alliance, Cir.
ole, and Poiro d. Ang!cterre. lie obtain
ed ilom Belle Alliance nine distinct sorts,
OF which none wero Ike the parent, either

is no doubt that ii each tree had stood by
itself Tar off from all others, each Of tho
seedlings would have moro acarly rcsem

near together, much cross fertilization was
tho result.
SWEET AND Sour AppLrs.-A late Wi.
ter, speaking of the absurdity of tho at
tempt to make apples half sweet and half
sour, by splitting buds and putting them
together, says: No man knowing any
thing Of vegetable physiology would 1T.
tempt it, for ono half of tho smallest bud,
with sufficient wood attached to insure its
growth, would contain hundreds Of plant
celle, each capable of porpetuating tho in.
diyidual characteristics of the parent
stock. If such union could be effected,
every bud and twig on either side would
remain true, and there could be no inter.
minglirg." The sweet and sour fruit is
produced in another way.
PARIS GREEN AND CANKRED WoRm.-C.
NJ Hooker, of Rochester, has reported to
the Horticultural his experience with
Paris green in destroying canker worms.
He mixed it with eight times it's bulk Of
air.slacked lime, tied the mixture in u
thin muelin bog to a long pole, and busted
the leaves while the dow was on. The
next day scarcely live one could be found.
As Paris green is arsenic and deadly
~ poison, great care is necessary not to
breathe any Of the dust; no animals must
got Mt it, and cattle and hogs be excluded
from the orchard where it is used. MIR.
Hooker thinks flour would be better than
air.slaked lime.

WASHINGTON, May 22.-The following pro-
lamation was issued by the President to-day.
Whereas, under the pretence that William P
Kellogg, the present Executive of Louisiana
and the officers associated with him in the
State administration were not duly elected, GER
tain turbulent and disorderly persons have COM
bined together with force and arms to resist the
laws and constitut ed authorities of said State;
and whereas it has been duly certified by the
proper local authorities, and judicially deter
mined by the Courts of said State that said of
ficers are entitled to hold their offices respec-
lively, and execute and discharge the functions
thereof; and, whereas Congress at its late ses-
sion upon due consideration of the subject
tacitly recognized the said Executive and his
associates then and now in office by refusing to
take any action with respect thereto; and
whereas il is provided in the Constitution of
the United States that the United States shall
protect every State in the Union on the appli-
cation of the Legislature, or of the Executive
when the Legislature cannot be convened,
against domestic violence; and, whereas it is
provided in the laws of the United States that
in all CAGES of instruction in any State or of
the obstruction to the laws thereof, it shall be
lawful for the President of the United States
on application Of the Legislature of such State
or of the Executive when the Legislature can
not be convened, to call forth the militia of any
other State or States, or to employ such part of
the land and naval forces as shall be judged
necessary for the purpose of suppressng such
insurrection, or causing the laws to be duly ex-
ecuted; and, whereas the Legislature of said
State under Section of Artice4 of the Con-
stitution of the United States and the laws
passed in pursuance thereof, has therefore made
application to me for such part of the military
force Of the United States as may be necessary
and adequate to protect said state and citizens
thereof against domestic violence, and to
enforce the execution of the laws; and
whereas it is required that whenever it may
be necessary in the Judgment of the President
to use the military force for the purpose afore-
said. he shall forthwith by proclamation, com
mand such insurgents to disperse peaceably to
their respective homes within limited time !;

Therefore, l, Ulysses Grant, President of
