SITTING AROUND.

They are sitting around upon barrels and chairs
Discussing their own and their neighbors' anaifs'
And the look of content that is seen on each lace
Seems to say, 81 have found my appropriate place.
Sitting around \
In bar-rooms and groceries calmly they SIT,
And serenely chew borrowed tobacco, and Spit
While the stories they tell and the jokes that they
crack,
Show their hearts have grown hard and undoubtedly
black,
While sitting arounds
The ssitter around' is no man Of means,
And his face would not pass for quart OF white
BEANS
Yet he somehow or other cOntriveS to exist
And is frequently seen with drink in his fist
While sitting around.
The loungers they toll not, nor yet do they spin,
Unless it be yarns, while enjoying their gin;
They are people OF leisure, yet often It's true,
They alude to the work they're intending to do,
While sitting around.
THEY'VE habit of talking of other mems wives,
As they whittle I'D sticks with their rnhandled
knives;
THEY'RE scaly old set, and wherever you go,
You'll find them in groups or strung out in row,
Sitting around.

JUNE.
L gazed upon the glorious sky
And the green mountains round;
And thought that when l came to lie
Within the silent ground,
'Twere pleasant that in fowery June,
When brooks send up cheerful tune,
And groves joyous sound,
The sections hand, my grave shall make,
The rich, green mountain turf should break,
A cell within the frozen mould,
A coffin borne through seet,
And icy clods above it rolled,
While fierce the tempests beat
Away!-I will not think of these
Blue be the sky and soft the breeze,
Earth green beneath the feet,
And be the damp mould gently pressed
Into my narrow place OF rest.
There through the long, long summer hours,
The golden light should lie,
And thick young herbs and groups of flowers
Stand in their beauty by.
The oriole should build and tell
His love-tale close beside my cell;
The idle butterfly
Should rest him there, and there be heard
The housewife bee and humming bird.
And what If cheerful shouts at noon
Come. from the village sent,
Or songs Of maids beneath the moon
With fairy laughter blent?
And what if, in the evening light.
Betrothed lovers walk in 81 kht
VI my low monument?
would the lovely scene around
Might know no sadder sight nor sound.
know, know I should not see
The seasons glorious show,
Nor would its brightness shine for me-
Nor its wild music flow;
But if, around my place of sleep,
The friends love should come to weep.
They might not haste to go.
Soft airs, and song, and light, and blooml
Should keep them lingering by my tomb.
These to their softened hearts should bear
The thought of what has been,
And speak of one who cannot share
The gladness of the scene;
Whose part, in all the pomp that fills
The circuit of the summer hills,
Is-that his grave is green;
And deeply would their hearts rejoice
To hear again his living voice.

Cambridge, notably that portion bordering
on the Charles River, supply of clay in the
soil would insure good bearing trees. He
knew this from actual experience, and the
more rocks in the soil the better, for rocks
contain both feldspar and mica, which con-
tain potash. In regard to the pruning of
apple trees, our informant thinks it is best
to lead and direct in the bud, and in the early
Spring to pinch off a bud that would grow
into branches which must ultimately be cut
of. An experienced person can see the
proper buds to be removed, and he can prune
the tree with his thumb nail. Trees thus
managed will never need the cutting away
of large limb. When there is danger OF the
growth Of wood being extended 30 late IN the
Autumn that the new growth would be
killed in Winter, the true remedy is to pinch
off the terminal buds instead OF severing
the roots.-American CultiUat0r.

Nursing AppIe-Trees.

Some of the oldest inhabitants of tie CITY
OF Cambridge (which, by the way, is one of
State) can we'll remember when the apple
was cultivated in this classic city with good
zeal OF success. In consultation with an
elderly gentleman there, who is considerable
OF hortculturist, on the subject of apples,
he said that one reason why so few apple
trees lived in Cambridge at the present time,
was because proper care was not taken in
nursing them. A mellow, fertile soil is nee
essary, which should be deep enough to allow
tne roots to extend, and be dry and well

POETRY.

This is the poem:

FOURTH EDITION
Around with the lSOys.

Councilman johnson was "around with
the boys" last night making a vigorous
canvass for his reelection among the
blinking saloons of the First Ward. He
gathered aglorious crowd aroundhim, ,and
went from place to place "setting them
up" and encouraging them by frequent
potations TO stand by him on election
day. His following towards the last was
literally sprinkled with colored men and
as an effect of this debauch the police
made several arrests this morning, some
of the bold johnson men being too full
to carry them elves straight and fell into
the clutches of the law.
One of the results of this "lttle round
was fight by some of the gang at Front
and Shipley streets, during which a man
named Thomas Carroll was assaulted and
knocked down by blow from black
jack. Later in the evening some of the
crowd got around on Christiana street,
and became so riotous and noisy that Of
1cer Bouzearth was drawn to the scene,
when some of the rioters fired pistols at
the officer, after which the whole gang
took TO their heels and ran away.
It's needless to add that the Republican
