CONE IN, MY FRIEND.

An eloquent clergyman of Nor
wich, Conn, frequently holds SER
vice IN a chapel ing an adjoining
town, and noticed one evening, a
timid individual in the entry, who
remained there all the evening, and
listen to the sermon with his ear
to th5 door, which he kept slightly
ajar. The next time the clergyman
officiated at the chapel he saw the
door open slightly and, supposing
his bashful listener was again in
the lobby, called from the desk,
Come in, my friend; don't stand
out there" The door opened slow
ly, and in walked the a.deacon's big
Newfoundland dog, which marched
up the aisle with great dignity, and
wagging his tail, laid down at the
parsons feet, amid the scarcely sup-
pressed laughter of the men and the
audible filters of the women of the
congregation. The clergyman,
scarcely able to speak, with merri.
ment, gasped out "Well, | did no.
think it Was you," and the ice was
OroSen.

TO MANAGE CUTTINGS.

In selecting cutting great deal
depends upon judicious choice; if
the slip is too young and full of fresh
sap, it vail fade away, from too much
evaporation, and lift is too old de,
hard and woody,-it will take great
while to strike root.
You must take a cutting that is
partly ripened. and is from vigorous
shoot, yet is little hardened at the
base. -.
1t is. also essential to have butt
or joint at or near the end Of the
cutting, as all roots strikes from it,
and the nearer it is to the base, the
greater your chance Of success.
Plant your cuttings in common
red pots, filled half full of rich loan,
and two inches of sand on the top
Securing sand will do, but not sea
sand), wet this thoroughly, and put
the cuttings close around the edge of
the pot; for if the bud joint comes in
contact with the surface of the pot
it seems to take root more quickly.
Pull off the lower leaves before you
plant the cutting. Press the wet
sand tightly around the tiny stem,
for grea> deal of your success in
raising the cutting depends upon the
close contact of the sand with the
stem. When the cuttings are firmly
planted cover them with glass stem
if possible, for it will greatly promote
the growth OF plants.
Moisture, light and heat are the
three essentials to plant-life; without
them no cutting will start.
Shade for two or three days from
sunlight, but don't let the sand
become dry; then give all the sun you
can obtain keep up good supply
of moisture, and you can hardly
fail to root most Of your cutt-
'ings.
Cuttings of roses, verbenas, clean
ders, heliotropes, ETC., etc., can also
be rooted in small Walls filled with
warmlsh water. and suspended from
the window easement. Select the
cuttings as described above; pull off
the lower leaves, and insert the end
for about an inch into the vial. Tie
a string about its neck, and hang in
the sun. If bit Ct Gotten wool is
wrapped about the cutting where it
Is kept wet, prevents the rapid evap-
Grafton of the water.
When the tiny roots show them
selves about an inch or more in length
fill up the vial with rich, compost
ed soil; let it hang for two or three
days longer, then break off the glass
carefully, without disturbing the roots
pot the plant.
Managed in this way the roots
received no check, and the plants
will grow very vigorously. The
cutting can be taken from the water
and the roots planted in pots, but
they will cling closely together, and
are not as naturally disposed as when
the glass is broken off, the roots are
covered with soil.
If the water evaporates third or
more in the vial. it must be filled up
with warmiSh water.

The Maryland Democracy.

between the friends Of the rival candidates

earnestness and some bitterness Of feeling

F" Democratic--R

Thi. absurd, ridiculous appellation is
the name selected by self-styled Demo
cratic Reform Association" having its
origin. Of course, in that hot. bed Of pol,-
cal isms, New York. Seeking to curry
favor with dissatisfied Republicans, they
would thus subvert all principle and all
honesty Of purpose in an abjcc, attempt to
strengthen the Democratic ranks by pan.
derug to the dogmas of their desired al
lies. In their frenzied attempt to rs-or-
ganizc the party" on more popular ba-
sis, they have prepared circular which
they are scattering broadcast over the
country, inviting the Democracy TO ac.
ccpt their views and rc-organzc the party
on their plan after the model furnished
by the malcontcnt Cincinnati Convention
In this circular, after dcnouncing the
doctrine Of State Rights. which they are
pleased to term 1.-THE un-Democra,ic thco-
ries Of John c. Calhoun they proceed
to give utterance to a sentiment which all
candid and farmindcd men will at once
condemn as wholly and maliciously false.
We mean the assertion that the ''prcsen,
dominant party are the lineal descendants
Of the old Federal party, who, under the
name Of Wigs, -No,hings, Aboli-
,ionists. and other names, have ever op-
posed Democratic doctrines.
The malicious slur contained in tha,
paragraph on the gentlemen who formerly
belonged to the Wing party, and who
compose very prominent portion of the
prescn, Democratic party, is well caleuln-
ted 10 do grea, injury to the latter. The
many thousands of Old Wings who have,
since the dissolution OF their party, been
voting with the Democratic party, came
to ,ha, party under the influence Of pure
patriotism, because they believed it to be
national and constitutional, and it will
not do for the members Of the old Demo
cratic party who still adhere to that or
ganiza,ion to thus slur at their allies
The Democratic party Of to-day is not thu
Democratic party Of 1868. /, is compos
ed of the patriotic portion of the t~o ole
parties. Democratic and Whig, aud ih'

day we're old Democrats Grant. Butler
Boutwell,. Banks, Crcsswsll. Shermal

hopeless minority.
We do not believe that the scntimen
contained in Mr. Rooscvslt's circular vii
be adopted by any considerable or rcspon

We earnestly hope that all such insinua
