BUDDING RosEs.-This is simple
process by which amateur cultivators
often increase their stock. A sharp pen
knife can do duty for budding knife,
and the handle of a toothbrush, if ground
down smooth, will answer for spud to
aid in lifting the bark. From the last OF
June to the last of August is the best time
for this process, as the bark can then be
more easily raised from the wood. Take
a smooth stalk and make a horizontal cut
across the bark, through to the wood,
but not into it. From the centre of this
cross-cut make another cut straight down
the stem, an inch or more in length.
These two cuts resemble q T. Slice of
the bud you wish to propagate with one
cut of the penknife, cutting it close to
the main stalk. Now, with the edge OF
the spud turn back the bark on each side
of the straight cut and insert the bud on
the wood of the branch to be budded,
fitting it tightly to the crossed cut.
With bit of soft yarn bind down the
bark, leaving the point of the bud ex-
posed. A handful of dampened moss
must then be bound round the stem, tax
ing care to leave the tiny point of the
bud exposed to the air. In six weeks
the wrappings can be removed, but all
other shoots must be kept from growing
on the budded branch. BY this means a
rose bush can be made to bear half q
dozen different colored roses.-FruH Re

We are informed by responsible
party that on Saturday, the 4th inst, a
party of Revenue officials went to the
house of William Walker, who lives in
the Eastatoe section of this county, and
took him from sick bed, tied his arms
together, put him behind one of the par
ty on horse and tied him to keep him
from falling of, as he was too sick to sit
on tie horse alone or united, and carried
him to Walhalla in the midst of ter
rible rain. His sickness was from milk
sick, a terrible disease we'll known in
that section. Our informant also states
Capt Hoffman proposed to handcuff Mr..
Walker, but Mr.. Gary interposed and
prevented Capt. Hoffman from imposing
this additional insult and punishment
upor this helpless sick man. We give
the statement as it comes to US, and di-
rect Che attention of the committee of
the Grand Jury, who are now engaged
in investigating these Revenue outrages,
to the same, and trust they will give it q
thorough investigation and bring out all
the facts connected therewith.-Pickena

who had been the donor. But the Bar
on in this respect was but type of the
entire family. The good done by the
Rothschilds cannot be overestimated.
Both the males and the females of the
family are princely in their generosity.
They contribute to every charitable un-
dertaking. Some institutions are almost
entirely supported by their munifcence.
They have endowed schools, built hospi-
tails, established aims houses, founded
soup kitchens, and, i'll short, have done
everything which the ingenuity of man
can invent for the amelioration of the
woes of their fellow-creaturea. They
are all firmly attached to the Jewish
religion, but they are liberal in their
views, and never permit their Jewish
proclivities or prcjudices to interfere with
their pleasant association with those
who differ from them in religious belief.
At one time it was the stated policy of
the Rothscl to inter-marry among
themselves, tn younger branches gene
rally marrying their cousins. Lately,
however, this custom has been infringec,
for some have even married out of the
faith. 1t is said that Nathan Meyer
conceived the idea of perpetuating the
name and power of the house by these
family marriages; and having in 1886
called a meeting of the various members
of the house at Frankfort to consider
the question, it was generally favored,
and as an introduction to the policy
Nathan's eldest son, the present Baron
Lionel de Rothschild, was united to his
cousin Charlotte, the eldest daughter of
Charles Rothschild. 1t was while on
this mission, and shortly after the nuP-
tials, that the Baron became seriously
ill, and died at the age of go. His body
was taken to England and inferred in
the cemetery belonging to the Great
Synagogue of London. The remains
were removed in ,hearse drawn by six
horses, and were followed to their last
resting place by cortege of mourning
coaches and carriages, among the latter
being those of the several European
Ambassadors and the chief nobility Of
England.
Lionel de Rothschild has, since his
fathers death, been at the head of the
London house.
