AN item is passing the rounds of
the newspapers to the effect that the
the grave of Tom Paine had
had been plowed over, and all traces
of it obliterated. Ii this is true, it
is a disgrace to the American peo-
pie. During the age in which he
lived, America possessed no more
constant patriot than Tom Paine.
He fought with the pen, if not with
the sword, and many were the
words of cheer he uttered to the
soldiers through the dark days Of
revolution, His religious convic-
tons brought down upon him the
enmity of the churchmen, who in a
very unchristian mood sought to
bury his name in obloquy. The
same convictions, if published to-
day, would not be suffered to de-
tract from the personal character Of
the nan, nor would his reputation
as a patriot be diminished by the
fact he dared to speak his honest
sentiments.

because there was never one Nre-

PHILADELPHIA must have vac
cinated with Communism in some
way, or Mayor Stolly would not
have received the letter he did, yes
terday, informing him in a string of
resolutions that the workingmen of
that city had met and resolved to re-
fuse to work at prevailing wages, and
that they would get their living by
forming into gangs and taking from
depots, storehouses, market-houses,
etc, such things as they needed.
The communication was signed
"Committy," and added that the
worlliAgmen had resolved to wait
until the 18th instant before opening
an attack upon capital, in order to
give the business men OF the city an
opportunity to provide work at adj
panced rates, and the landlords q
chance to lower rents.

THE GERMAH ARMY.-A handbook re-
Gently published at Leipsic, gives the first
complete resume that las appeared Of the
newly reorGanized army Of The German
empire. The most important increase in
this of late appears, Of course, in the cav
airy, which can now put twelve complete
divisions into the field in place Of the six
employed during the late war; and indie
pendent of the regiments attached 10 the
divisions of Infantry. Including Bavaria,
there are eighteen army corps IN the en-
pire, Of which seventeen Uhat Of Al. ace
Lorraine is presumably the exception have
every component element perfectly COM
pieic. Each corps has, OF course, i:s Two
divisions, and the most striking change in
the mc.Lod Of organization as compar-
cd with that in use ia Is70.s the far greater
independence given 10 each division, this
body being no longer regarded rs only
fighting but marching unit, with It's bridge
equlpage and other special services COM
pete. There is still, however, special re-
serve Of artillery and engineers belonging
TO the corps headquarters. Ehe number of
cJmbltants in the field army is given nj
o1SOOO hayonets, Gs,OO0 sabers, aud 20SO
guns, and $1,000 engineers but the ration
lists VI the army, iucluding train and nom
combalants, amount 10 1000 men with
100000 horses. These figures are of conrse
entirely independent Of all the trooDs If

SECURING APPLES FOR THE OFF YEAR.
One Of the most successful agrlcu.turists
IN the country is Robert Pell, who has
l200-acre farm in Ulster county, New f"'N'
all in the highest state Of cultivation. one
feature is an orchard Of geo acres, planted
exclusively With the Newtown pippin, and
the product Of this orchard is famous in
England and Europe as well as ut home.
TO attain his present perfection IN lfut
culture, Mr.. Pcll stuffed the art Of pomol-
ogv and learned how to assist nature in her
efforts to support mankind. Commonly
speaking, the apple tree bears every altor-
nate year. MI. Pel determined TO have
an annual harvest, and to give his orchard
q handsome start be sacrificed the crop or
bearing year. All the apples were picked
while green. He had discovered that tire
germ Of the next years fruit was in exist
ence at the time Of the apple harvest, but
that the tree would be 50 exhausted that
this germ would fail of development, and
a year Of rest would follow before another
crop could be produced. Having stopped
his trees from lgulting ia the manner have
me nuoned, he was sure oil Il crop on what
was generally the Off year, and he deter
mined to follow this up by q treatment
which should abolish the oil-yclr system.
He learned that trees require 4 variety Of
food, the chief Of which is found in potash,
lime and soda, and his orchard has been
thus fed with all the success that could
have been anticipated. The potash is found
in wood ashes, lime is obtained from oyster
shells at low cost, (stone liue bong uudc-
sirable), while soda is supplied by com-
mon salt. An orchard thus fed and ju-
diciousIy pruned cannot lail Of success,
and although this season is generally short

\ WORD FOR THE PoOR.-Thc winter
will lie a hard one Work will be scarce
and money scnrccr. Already the great
manufacturing firms have discharged ma
ny Of their hands, and those who hsVc not
dismissed employee have reduced wages 30
low that the effect Of the two is not very
different. 70 ber, or 10 steal, or to starye
seems the only solution to the problem Of
life for these enforced oilers. When there
Is scanlintss Of work, there is inevitably
plentitudo Of crime. Ii +, stated that TWEEN
~ thousand men and women, dependent
on their daily earnings for support, were
ont Of employment last winter in .hc city
Of New York; and 1t is feared that the
number this season may be doubled. Ma
ny Of these must wander into the country
in 'carch Of the labor they cannot find in
town. When they ask at your doors for
work, try and find something for them, if
il be only for few h"urs. Trus, them,
even If thclrapfcarance be uncanny, Give
them work, and pay diem for it. Money
that comes without labor is generally The
least charitable of2iGs. - live upon pccuu-
larry aid that has had no equivalent, is to
lcso the balance wheel Of a healthy or ami
zltion.
Engage all the help this winter yOu can
possibly afford. Have your sewing done,
not by expensive modisteS, but by tho poor
omen who stitch by the day or job. Hire
tue choro- woman lnr an extra cleaning,
now and then. Let tho washcr-woman's
blv do the crrands you have been in the
habit o! doing yourself. Compensate Them

LILY OF THE VALLEY FOR WINDOW GAR

LILY OF THE VALLEY FOR WINDOW GAR
DENs.-Whilc we are taking up our plants
let MS at forget 10 take lie v tubers of the
Lily Of the Valley, the loveliest flower of
all Flora's kingdom. Select large, healthy
clumps, and plant them in boxes filled with
very rich soil, mingled with one-third
sand. Put the boxes beside warm stove,
or on the shelf Of the kitchen range. Give
them water, at first sparlnely, but as the
sheathed leaves appear increase the guam
tity. Too much at an early stage would
cause the roots TO decay. When the Gpw-
ers appear, put the boxes into the sunnesl
location you possess. All window garden
ers will be charmed with this lovely gem,
and its fragrance is not too powerful in any
room.
