THE WIDOWS MONEY.

Apoor woman, who lived in an unpro-
tected part of Scotland, became unex-
pectedly possessed of a large sum of
money, with which property she was as
much troubled as Captain Jack with the
money which he dared not spend, was
afraid to show, and could not carry about
him for lack Of pockets. She would have
taken it to the bank, but could not leave
the house. At last she asked the advice
of a butcher of her acquaintance, telling
him that she was afraid to live alone in
the house with such sum of money.
"Never fear" said the butcher, 81 will
leave my dog with you, and I'll warrant
you that no one will dare to enter your
house."
So toward evening thee dog was brought
and chained up close to the place where
the money was kept. In the middle of
the night robber made his way into the
house, and was proceeding to carry off
the money when he was seized by the
dog, who held him prisoner until assist
ance came. The thief was the butcher
himself, who thought he had made sure
of the money. He had,not. considered
that his dog was bettersmoralist than
himself, and, instead of betraying de-
fenseless woman, would even tlke her
part against his own master.

WHEN CORNS ARE PLNCHED.

The N. Y. Sun talks to our colored
brethren thusly
The utter ruin of the Freedmen's Bank,
from which nearly three millions of dol
lars were stolen by the Washington Ring
did much to awaken the seventy thou
sand poor and betrayed depositors to the
real character of their friends, who man
aged that institution for their own profit.
More recently, the appropriation of How
ard University by the congregational
Church, and the virtual eY fusion of the
colored people from what hey regarded
as their peculiar institution have aroused
no small degree of wrath, AID with much
reason Fred Douglass and Langston
have both denounced this proceeding,
and intimated pretty broadly that they
will not stand the usage to which their
race has been subjected any longer.
Their resentment is natural, but it is
not from such personal explosions that
we look for the improvement which is
so much needed among the colored peo-
pie. The so-called leaders Of this ce
have taken pretty good care of tnem-
selves, and are measurably responsible
for the evils which they now effect to de-
plore. They sustained the administra-
ton in every act, advocated the rings,
and helped to wage bitter war against
the people'of the South.
They saw the money of their own
race filched before their very eyes at
Washington, without word of remon-
STRANGE. In fact, some of them aided in
that villainy and after the magnitude of
the fraud was known, Fred Douglass
himself sought to soothe its victims by
assurances which have proved ground
less. Even now they have not one brave
word of personal denunciation for the
rogues who stripped the vaults of the
Freedman's bank, and are founshing at
the capital. We have little faith in lead
ers who are only quick to resent when
the shoe pinches their own Corns. The
redemption of the colored race from po-
litital bondage is to come in another way,
and they are fortunate in not being de-
pendent upon any doubtful assistance,
They will work out the problem them
| selves

STERILITY IN FRUIT TREES AND
THE RATIONALE OF FRUIT
BEARING.


There are certain we'll known laws IN
vegetable growth which should be Kep'
in mind, and occasionally brought 'lnVo
notice, serving as hints to those who may
be ignorant, or forgetful of their adplica
ton.
Unproductive fruit trees may often De
brought into bearing by process which
has long been known, but which Las
lately received more attention, VIZ Oy
bending down the erect, upward growing
branches in a horizontal or dropping po-
sition, and keeping them 50, through one
growing season, 80 as TO give them per-
manent shape.
It is related of grape-vines-one
trained vertically, one obliquely upward
one horizontal and one downward, that
the last bore the heaviest crop. Many
wears ago had pear tree which grew
vigorously, pushing annually strong up
RIGHT shoots, but never towering by
I attaching weights to three or four OF
these upright limbs so as to bend them
downwards and keep them in that posi-
ton all summer, the over luxurlant
growth was arrested, and flower buds
| formed ;and the next year these branches
lbore fruit, whilst other vertical limbs
remained unfruittul. s,
The rationale of this is, that the tiow
or SAP is most abundant in the upright or
vertical growth, and the tendency then
il To- form leaves and wood only This
| is The case with all vigorous young trees.
| II is not until the limbs begin to assume
a dropping position that bearing begins
The reproductive organs OF a plant
flowers and seed vessels) are only meta"
morphose leaves-leaves arrested In their
normal growth and transformed into
calyx, corolla and fruit. Anything there
fore that disturbs or impairs the exces-
sively vigorous growth of a plant, has q
tendency to throw it into q fruit-bearing
condition. That which would have gone
into leaf and wood is diverted into
more profitable channels.
The Practical farmer and fruit grower
know this very we'll, though they may
be ignorant of the reason
Cotton is topped to arrest the upward
luxuriant growth, and to force the sap
into the horizontal branches, whichbeing
retarded is developed into flowers and
fruit. Many of our garden vegetables
may be over-stimulated by high manur-
ing, SO as to run into leaf and stem atthe
expense of the fruit.
We must keep the principle in view,
viz: that excessive luXuriance tend td
formation of leaf and woody fibre 1.-THE
increase in size of the individual plant
and that it is not until the luxuriance is
disturbed and somewhat impaired that
flowers and fruit are developed (the re-
production of species).
1t is found too, that when practicable
as in the case of grape vines, the limbs
should be trained straight horizontally
and not curved. When straight, the flow
of sap is uniform throughout, and all the
buds are developed alike; if curved, the
uppermost buds get too much, and the
lower too little nourishmeut, so that the
object in measure is defeated.
This principle in vegetable physiology
is of wide application, and the observant
cuturist will be able to see in it the ex'
PLANTATION OF many things, which other
wise would have been obscure.

A MAN LONG LOOKED FOR.

A few days ago Governor Tilden, of
New York, went to Buffalo in a quiet
sort of way, saw the people there, stayed
tound among them and learned public
sentiment, and then he returned delib-
erately to Albany, on special train of
cars, stopping at the principal points by
the way. His speeches on these occa-
sions were remarkable forensic efforts,
clear, ringing, plucky and statesmanlike,
and were an absolute assurance that
whoever else falters in the work of re-
form, he will not. No doubt the. effect OF
Governor Tlden's demonstration will be
excellent. 1t will have a good effect on
the public mind.- No doubt will any
longer existas 10 the earnestness, fidelity
and determination of Governor Tilden
and his supporters in the grand work Of
reform in New York. A man of such
courage and energy, coupled with such
devotion to the cause of reform as Have
been manifested by Governor Tilden
must of necessity become the idol of the
people, who nave been looking for such
a man all through this age of'pIiable mef
in the midstof general official CORRUPTION
and spoliation.- Nilwdukee Ne,rs.
