When to Prune Fr1it Trees,

Long experience shows that when 1t
is desirable to produce q free growth
Of shoots and leaves, pruning should
be done when the trees are dormant,
as in the Winter season, or early in
the Spring, before the sap begins to
flow. When fruit trees appear to
grow too rapidly, and to produce too
much wood, they may be pruned mod
erately in the Summer season, cutting
away portion Of the wood by degrees
but shoot growing III an improper
place may be cut away at any time.
An experiment made by pruning APP
pie trees every month in the year, for
two seasons, showed that the wounds
of the branches cut in February and
March, at the end Of five years, when
all had healed over, were found to be
the least decayed under the healed
surface. When trees are pruned in
Winter, or / may say at any time, it is
best to cover the wounds with hot
mixture Of tar, and pulyerized brick
dust or fine sand. A solution Of shell
lac in alcohol, as thick as can be ap-
piled with brush, is considered by
many as the DeSG preparation that can
de applied.
During the mild days of Winter, OF.
ChardS may be pruned- while little
else can be done; but good judgement
should be exercised in regard to select
ing the branches TO be cut away. Il
is ruinous 70 an orchard to cut and
slash away one-third to one-half the
limbs. All that should be done is tC
give the trees good shape, and only
cut away such limbs as are plainly il
excess of the natural requirements OF
the tree, to conform to the extent Of
its roots. If we take away too mucl
of the top Of tree, it is like taking
blood from a man the more that j;
taken, The less vitality remains in him
therefore in pruning, only the few TN
slightly branches, and those improperl,
situated, should be cut away.-Rura
New Y orker.

The Theory of Evolution.

The PoDular Science Monthly re-
ports Sir Wvville Thompson as say
inc. in a lecture to the natural his
tory class at Edinburgh University,
that the great stumbIing-block, from
the natural history side of the ques-
ton, in the way Of an acceptance of
the evolution hypothesis, was, that
any such passage from one species
to another is entirely outside our eX-
perience. The horse has evidently
been the horse since the earliest hi
eroglyphs were engraved upon As.
svrian monuments and tombs, and
the same held for all living crea-
lures. There was not a shadow of
evidence of one species having pass
ed into another during the period of
human record or tradition. Nor is
this all. We have, in the fossil re-
mains contained in the rocks, a sculp-
tured record of the inhabitants of
this world, running back incalcula-
blv further than the earliest chisel,
mark inscribed by man-incalcula-
blv further than mans existence on
this planet; and, although we find
from the record that thousands of
specimens have passed away, and
thousands have appeared, in no sin
gle case have we yet found the Sc,
ries of transitional forms imperfect
Iy gliding into one another and uni
ting two distinct species by contin
uo1s bridge, which could be cited as
an undoubted instance of the origin
of species.

That LirtIe Cloud.

Senator Blaine struck chord in his
Fourth of July speech, at Woodstock, Ct,
which has produced various degrees of vi
bration, according to the humOr Of the
reader. Those who seem disposed to carp
at Blaine and all his utterances. find in it
a new occasion for a slur. Those who have
less malignity, and more sense and cOnsid-
eraion, give the subject some calm thought
and reflection. Whether the subject IS en-
titled to all the consideration given to it
by Mr.. Blaine. depends upon the prior
question, whether the South has sufficient
ly recovered from the consequences of her
inordindte ambition to strike out again in
the track of empire. The past is full of in
structiOn. Schemes of border accpssions
have been the study of the South. For the
truth of this we have only to recount the
Louisiana accession, the war with Mexico,
and the Texan accession, the Buchanan
scheme for securing Cuba, and the bold
strike made for the spreading of the ''di-
vine institution" over Kansas. The re-
bellion was another bold effort to either
subdue or shake off the North. and the
founding Of goverenment-as Alex. H..
Stevens assures us, with slavery for its cor
ner-stone. Though the foundation feature
may be out of the question now, the aspi-
ration for another government, may not
be. At least, influence and power, are
not. The thirst for these cannot be well
separated from southern ambition, and as
the accession of border territory holds out
the best prospect of bringing about a reali-
zation of their dreams, it is quite safe to
watch any schemes for such acccessions in
their incipiency, and meet them with de-
termined opposition. The suggestion in
this case, coming as it does from border
State representative, if not worthy of sus-
picion, is, nevertheless, worthy of watch
fulness, and Thoughtful consideration of
what is due to northern rights and securi-
| ties. Mr. Blaine is too shrewd an observ-
er and statesman, in the face of the expe-
rience of the present generation, and the
schemes and marplots of the previous one,
not to see this little cloud appearing above
the southern horizon, and too prudent not
to lift the voice in calling attention to it.
We cannot but think that he has done
well to do so, and we cannot but hope that
this warning will be needed, and that it
will find sympathizing feeling and senti-
ment in every intelligent. patriot heart.
Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty
and yet in the face of this incessantly
truthful apothegm, there is an Indifference
and apathy in the minds of statesmen that
lullS to peace and inaction, when vital in
terests are eraftily jeopardized. What is
the lesson of the rebellion? While stealthy
and sleepless vigilance characterized the
plotters of mischief, how dull and slothful
were the friends of republican liberty? The
result is well known. Before the reverber-
alton over the land of the first gun, every
plan had been so perfected as to put the
friends of the government at a disadvan-
tage that it took much time and herculean
labor to prepare for and successfully meet.
Let the warning be needed.

man Capital. The concern is describ-
ed as consisting of a couple of
wheels, two meters high; between
these finds itself the horse, upon
which mounts the rider The latter
moves his legs after the FnoIish
fashion of ridng-,his means we
presume, that he rises and falls in
his saddle-and the thing goes
along as fast as quick truiting
horse. The read makes no differ
ence--it is the same whether the
machine goes gently over the stones,
or moves swiftly on the hard, high
road-and the facility with which
the strange steed turned round cor
ners excited the admiration of all be
holders. Herr NetzSch believes that
his invention will be of great use to
porters and others for the carrying
of light loads and he has confident
hopes that it will be appreciated by
the numerous classes who are fond
Of saddle exercise but are destitute
of thc wherewithal to buy and maln-
tain horses of flesh and blood; he
contemplates, too, its application o
the drawing of cabs and other car
uages. 1t is even conceivable that in
this invention we have the charger
OF the future. An animal that does
not eat and cannot die would be of
inestimable value in warfare. There
are one or two significant omissions
in the description from which We
quote. We are not told how man
of flesh and blood is expected to
support the fatigue of moving, by
rising IN his stirrups, a creature of
iron, or if it be possible to keep it
going in any place less fat than Ber-
lin, a city, which, as everybody
knows, is as level as billiard-bOard.

A Pleasant Custom.

Cameron's "Across Africa" says
that on the death of Urua chief, ii
is the custom to "divert the course
of stream, and in its bed dig an
enormous pit, the bottom of which
is then covered with living women.
At one end woman is placed on her
hands and knees, and upon her back
the dead chief, covered with his
beads and treasure, is seated, being
supported on either side by one of
his wives, his second wife sits at his
feet. The earth is then shoveled in
on them, and all the women are bu-
ried alive, with the exception of the
second wife. TO her custom is more
merciful than to her companions,
and grants to her the privilege of
being killed before the huge grave
is filed in. This being completed, a
number of male slaves-sometimes
forty or ffty-are slaughtered, and
their blood poured over the grave,
after which the river. is allowed to
resume its course"

Ten RuIes-Never to be Observed at
Church.

l. Never open your pew door to a
stranger waiting for seat. He may
have designs on your purse.
2. If the sexton brings a stranger
to your pew door, look daggers at
him, and make him just as uncom-
Portable as you can.
3. Take out your watch several
times during the sermon, and if it
has hunting-case, shut it up with a
sharp snap. 1t may hurry the preach
er.
4. When you return your hymn
book to the rack, let it go down with
a bang-lt enlivens the service.
5. Wear the most stylish dress
you have-it shows you don't care
for the proprieties.
6. Rush to the door on the instant
of the last amen. You are glad it's
over.
7. Stop in the aisle to salute all
your friends, and turn about, if pos
sible, in the crowd. It makes you
conspicuous.
8. Tread on as many of the dress
es of the ladies as you can, and make
them look around.
9. In the door, stand still and have
chat, so as to hinder all behind
you from getting out.
10. Then light your cigar and go.
