FRUIT CULTURE.

On this subject the following, from the
New York Weekly Tribune, being ques.
tons asked 10y a correspondent Of tnat Jour.
nal. and replied To fully by II. r. Quinn, OF
the Rural Club, will, we think, be OF inter
est to our readers.
Queries:
!. In garden with room for only few
apple and pear trees, are Standards or
Dwarfs to be generally preferred?
=. Can the shape and size o; standard
apple trees be materially regulated aud
controlled by trimming, and what season
OF the year il best Tor the purpose2
). Are Dwarf apple trees successful on
Doucin or Paradise stocksl
t. Is it advisable to top graft slow and
slender varieties like the Swaar, Nonsuch,
and Spitzenburgs into strong uprigh grow
ers like the Northern Spy, &c
5. What six or eight varieties each Of
appels, pears, aud cherries, ripeuiug sue
cessiuIly, are peculiarly adapted to II gar
den with q deep soil OF rich sandy loan, in
this locality
=. Is any compromising benefit to he de-
rived from mixing clay with sandy soil
where pears or any other fruits are to be
cultivated?
!. For garden or orchard here, is it al.
visabie TO procure the young trees from q
nursery in tins vicinity, or from more
Northern latitude.
Replies:
|. When the room is limited Standards
trained low will give, IN niLe cases out OF
ten, the best results
>. By an Intelligent method of pruning,
the natural habits and form OF fruit tree
can be altered, il the thing is begun while
the Tree Is young The Winter aud early
Spring months will be found the most con-
veniept time FIR pruning, although trees
may be prunei an any month without III
jury.
) Apples will, when worked on the
Ducian stock make a stronger growth of
wood than on the Paradise.
/. On well prepared soil, neither OF the
varieties named are slow growers, and
there is very l'ttle gained 10y grating on
the Northern Spy,

Of six varieties each OF apples, pears, aud

I. Buy your young trees at the nursery
nearest your farm; ii the trees are Of good
quality. BY following this plan you will
save the freight and prevent injury to the
branches, which will always occur in pack
ing young lruit trees for shipping. The
main point is to have the Young trees "lin
eu' from the nursery row with proper care.

The Ef-eEe Sesns-eFbesseS, it will
be seen from the advertisement publish
ed in another part of this issue, proposes
to give. on the evening Of the 23d inst.
at Turner Hall. in this city, a grand
vocal and instrumental concert. conclcd
ing with supper and bail, for its own
benefit. This society has been establish
ed among us for about nineteen years and
has just about completed the erection Of
a new rehearsal room adjoining the Turn.
er Hall, FOR the accommodation OF its mem
bers. Almost the exclusive support Of
the society is derived from our German
friends. who, inheriting the admirable mu-
steal tastes nd social harmonies of the
land OF their fathers, make it labor of
love to cultivate, found. ard establish
the divine art, with its blessings, in this
favored land of their choice and adop-
ton
We think, that this society, since its
beginning, has never made special call
upon the community for pecuniary aid
or support, and has until now, hardly
needed any, for its management has al
ways been wise and economical But the
growing necessities of the society. and
the upward tendency of rents, in man
ner compelled the society to build re-
hearsal room, thus becoming fnancilly
. embarrassed. This being the case we do
most sincerely hope that the public will
cram the hall for them, for in so doing
/ those who go will honor themselves by
! forwarding what to Us seems one of the
/ best deserving and most elevating insti-
tutions of our city, and is, In fact. the
only place of combined innocent, human
izing, refined social enjoyment provided
/ for in our city. OF the power and infu-
ence Of OF music as an educator and civ
ilizer, it is needless for US here to speak;
/ its force and importance have within a
| few years taken strong hold in the minds
of many of the leading men of the coun-
/ try. We hope therefor that all who feel
an interest in the advancement of the
heavenly science of music and desire its
promotion and have a wish to hear
choice selections from some of the first
masters Of all time, rendered by musical
talent Of high order, will go and listen
and receive. as well as give benefit; es-
/ peciall ought it TO be borne 10 mind that
/ this society has always been at call on
any and eyerv worthy public occasion,
freely and gratuitously. The musical
direction of the whole will be under Prof
| Bieling, who will be assisted by the beSi
talent the city affords, both for concert
ana ball, and the names of the gentle
men having the arrangement in charge
are sufficient of themselves to ensure the
! public that every thing possible will be
lone to satisfy the requirements of the
occasion. We do hope the result viii be
gratifying and satisfactory. -

AMERICAN ANTIQUITIES.
"


In the three preceding articles, We
have Sendeavored to prove that the
mound builders were a distinct class from
the Indians; we will now try to show
that they emigrated to Mexico Whelh-
er they were forced to leave the fertile
Mississippi Valley, by reason Of internal
dissension. pestilence, famine, or foreign
invasion, will perhaps always remain a
mystery. They were here, they are gone,
the Indians filed their places. They
were most likely driven out by the In
dams. What else could induce them to
leave our fertile valleys and go to noun
famous Mexico?
The MexicaDs were civilized people
at the time of the conquest. They had
a written history, which Spanish barbar
ism destroyed. From their records we
learn that at various intervals from the
seventh to the thirteenth centuries tribes
came to Mexico from the north and
northwest. They possessed a good
knowledge of the mechanics arts, of ag-
riculture and of architecture. They bnilt
quite extensive cities in Mexico. The
case is very simple Here are antiqui
ties, relics of civilized race, who were
probably driven away by the Indians.
About the same time race far advanced
in the arts and sciences, enter Mexico
from the north. Have we not every rea-
son to suppose they were one and the
same?
The great similarity of the antiquities
In the United States and Mexico, i a
farther proof. Both used unburnt brick.
Both knew and used metals. The re-
lieion seems to have been the same with
both nations Both have been accused
of human sacrifice. The Mezicars had
a method of emoalming their dead, which
seems to have been practiced in the
Mississippi valley. The caves in the
Western States were used as catacombs.
In these were placed the embalmed dead.
They were wrapped up in coarse cloth,
found only among the early Mexicans.
Thus it is evident that the early in
habitants of the United States were a
civilized race, that they and the Next
cans were the same people. The proba-
bility is that the Indians coming from
the northwest drove tban axvav
The antiquities of Mexico and Peru arr
very interesting. Are not the ruins ia
Central America far more interesting
| They are of older date than either chose
of Mexico or Peru. Who shall deciphel
the hieroglyphics written theron? When
deciphered, much information twill be
given upon this dark portion Of Ameri
can History E. H. S.
