and without further discussion were passed
with but one (yet very emphatic) dissent
ing voice
The following resolution was then pre-
sented for the action of the council by an
aged Bro.-Rev. -, who had presented
the subject at the close of the forenoon's
service in earnest and pathetic terms.
Resolged, That we rejoice in hope that
the enlightened nations of the earth will
soon unite in calling a convention and in
establishing a worlds peace congress; for
we believe that war is not in accordance
with the letter or the spirit of the Gospel
of Jesus Christ
The resolution was adopted as the senti-
ment of the council, after several spirited
speeches in its support by unanimous
vote.
After the transaction of other business,
vote OF thanks was rendered the parish
and people of Fletcher for the ample ac-
commodations furnished, and the large
hearted and open armed hospitality that
had been extended to the Champlan Asso-
citation. The council then adjourned sine
de. The place and time for the next an
nual meeting to be arranged by the clerk
OF the Association. The meetings closed
with an able sermon by Rev. John Gregg
ry of Mortified, who discoursed most fer
yently on the power of Christ in the soul.
Judging from the high and well deserv-
accommodations of thepeople of Fletcher,
the Universalst parish of that place is sup
piled once month bS the Rev. G. s. Guern-
sey, in the most acceptable manner.

MIGYoNETTE AS A TREE.-Buy a pot of
ordinary mignonette, or plant seed. This
pot will probably contain a tuft composed
of many plants. Put up all but ONE and,
as the mignonette is one of the most rustic
of plants, which may be treated without
any delicacy, the single plant that is left in
the middle of the pot may be vigorously
trimmed leaving only one shoot. This shoot
must be attached to n slender stick The
extremity of this shoot will be put forth
bunch of flower buds that must be cut off
entirely, leaving not single bud. The
stock, in consequence of this treatment,
will put out multitude of young shoots,
that must be allowed to develope freely I'M
til they are about three inches and half
long. Then select out Of these, four, six
or eight, according to the plant, with equal
spaces between them. Now, with piece
of whalebone, make hoop and attach your
shoots to it, supported at the proper hight.
When they have grown two or three inches
longer, and are going to bloom, support
them by second hoop like the first. Let
them bloom, but take off the seed pods be-
fore they have time to form, or the plant
may perish. 1t will not be long before new
shoots will appear just below the places
where the flowers were. From among
these new shoots choose the one on each
branch which is in the best situation to re-
place what you have nipped off. Little by
little, the principal stalks, and also the
branches, will become woody, and your
mignonette will no longer by an herbaceous
plant, except at the upper extremities,
which will bloom all the year without inter-
ruption. 1t will be truly tree mignonette,
living for an indefinite period; for, with
proper treatment, a tree mignonette will
live ~ to 10 years.
