Garden Operations for the Autumn.

o The season is now at hand when prep
aration has to be made for the preserva-
tiOn of plants and bulbs during the win
ter, and also for planting hardy trees and
The best season of the year for trans
planting evergreens is during September
and October. Deciduous trees and
shrubs, except cherries, peaches,t Il and
other stone fruits, do well planted in
October and November-the earlier the
better, after the leaves have fallen.
Trees planted at this season especially
require stalking and mulching; the first
to prevent them from being blown over
or about by the winds of winter, and the
mulching to keep the frost from getting
too severely into the ground, as in its
loose state, when thrown on the roots of
the tree in the operation Of transplant.

The RaiIsOay Age says: can astonish.
ingly. large proportion of the accidents
caused by railway trains result to per.
sons walking upon the tracks. We have
taken the pains to count up from the re-
port of the Erie Railway for 1875, and
find that of the 272 persons, employees
and others, killed or injdred in every
way, no less than sixty-six, or nearly
One-quarter, met their injury or death by
being upon the tracks when trains were
passing. II is so evident that people
will not take care of themselves In this
respect that the law ought to take care
OF them by prescribing penalties for
walking upon railway tracks at any time
They manage these things better in

cious track-walker and put him to sum

lished the following letter: ~- ~

AMEhlCAN EALllANCEti1
NATIoNAL EXECUTIVE Con-. ROOMS,
New YORK, Oct. 6.
To the Editor of the New York Times:
wish to correct some of the mistakes
in the, letter which was published in the
World and San, ETC., on Wednesday, as
coming from Gov. Hayes Secretary,
First, Gov Hayes never was a member
of the American Alliance.
Second, he never saw the constitution
or bylaws of the organization. ,
Third, no committee of this Order ever
at any time called on him, either at Co.
lumbus, Philadelphia, or any other place,
for any purpose. We simply notified
him by letter that we indorsed his nomi
nation, in answer to which we received
the letter from his Secretary. That let
ter was taken from my office, and l was
as much surprised as anyone can be to
see it in print.
/ am at a loss to see why those papers
should find any fault with the proceed
ings, as we indorsed Mr.. Tilden for Gov
ernor two years ago and he found no
fault with it, but, on the contrary, was
very grateful for the assistance, only he
requested that IL might be kept secret, as,
If ii should become public, he feared he
might lose the foreign cote. Respectfully
yours, LEMUEL S. TYLER,
Secretary OF the American Alliance
