Autumn transplanted trees have the
advantage of those planted in the spring,
in the better settling or the earth about
the roots, so that they are ready for an
early start. But there are two things TO
look to or they will be likely to be worse
off than spring-set trees. The wind
often whips them about and makes a
hole around the stem, greatly to their
injury. IN such cases dig the earth
away from them with spade down to
the roots, and replace good mellow earth
mot hard lumps) about them, pressing II
well about the tree with the foot. The
other difficulty is the hardening of the sur
face Of the earth into crust. This must
be dug up and made mellow ifyou would
have the tree do well through summer.
Trees set out in spring often have the
advantage of fall-transplanted trees be-
cause the earth is left mellow after set
ting, instead of hardened into stiff
crust by winter and spring rains. But If
the care is taken here pointed out the
fall-set trees will do the best.-E1c]tdnge.

President of the Sixth avenue line, were in consul

in relation to paying licenses for the running
OF cars on their respective roads. The fee TO be

thought this should be paid only for those run, and
not for those in the repair shop. The head of the
Bureau OF Licenses was sent for and it was decided
that under the law each car running or to he run
should pay the fee. MIR. Butler will to-day pay
licenses for seventythree cars amounting to $780,
and Mr.. Law gave his check to the Mayor for
$500, being the license fee Tor eleven cars more
than last year. The other lines are expected to
pay up IN a few days.

KINGSTON, JAM, Jan. %, 1874
The government of this island has notified the
Atlas Steamship Company that the contract with
them for the conveyance Of mails and passengers
between that place and New York, will terminate
In June. This company Is now running two
steamers month, and getting excellent freight
each way, that they will continue to run without
the subsidy which they now enjoy. The Pacific
Mail Company, however, mas taken advantage OF
the break in the Atlas Companys contract to put
in proposition OF their own viz :-lor reasonable
subsidy their steamers Will Call here going to
and returning from Colon. This causes very gen.
eral satisfaction throughout the colony.
The question OF a subsidy rests. however, with
the government and not with the people, who
have little or no voice in the matter. The existence
OF a cable between Jamaica and Colon, whlcA gives
three days notice OF steamers coming, Overrldes
all the former objections as to irregularty and in
convenience TO shippers.
