l) Although lime goes back to
carbonate Of lime, it does not do 80
all at once, and, in the process Of re-
turning to that condition, it decom-
poses vegetable matter, and so makes
it plant food.
(2) The natural limestone rock
the carbonate-is very hard, and its
reduction to powder by mechanical
means would be difficult and exoen-
sive. Now, when lime slakes in the
air it falls down into dry powder.
No mechanical reduction, therefore,
is necessary. It requires less expen-
aiture Of force to burn the limestone,
and let the lime fall to powder Of itself,
than to reduce the natural rock by
mechanical power,
Trees, like grasses, contain lime
largely. The indication is to apply
old mortar, or lime in any form, to
fruit and shade trees, and this should
be done in the fall.

eminently grand. 1t was in unison with those
other great ovatons which he received in

floor and the galleries. The entrances were
filled with standi q throng and hundreds
who could not gain adnittance left the build
ing. A large special train of cars came from
Gardiner and Hallowell. The audience was
an excellent one, intelligent and enthusiastic
and composed of ladies as well as gentlemen.
The excellent music which was furnished and
which was SO highly appreciated was by the
band from the National Soldiers Home. Out
side the building while the speaking was going
on the streets were filled with people showing
how many were turned away.
AT o'clock Secretary Sherman appeared
upon the platform accompanied by Howard
Owen, Esq, Chairman of the City Committee,
Senator Blaine, Hon. Arson p Morrill,, Hon.
Lot M. Morrill, and other distinguished gentle
men. The band struck up welcoming tune
at their entrance and the large audience burst
into immediate and hearty applause. After
the music and cheering had ceased Mr.. Owen
introduced as the chairman of the meeting
Hon. Arson P. Morrill,, one of the founders of
the Republican party and now one of its
strongest supporters. Mr.. Morrill, accepted the
position and in handsome and eulogistic terms
introduced to the meeting Hon. John Sher-
man, Secretary of the Treasury, under whose
hand resumption had been accomplished Mr.
Sherman Immediately launched into the
delivery of his speech, which was substantial
ly the same speech he delivered in Portland.
AT the conclusion of the Secretary's remarks
the hall resounded with hearty and prolonged
applause. Then the applause was taken up
again and calls of ''Blaine, Blaine" filled the
hall. Mr.. Blaine finally advanced amid
tremendous cheers and acclamations. He
spoke for half an hour, touching briefly upon
the Greenback and Democrat parties in the
State, but mainly upon the extra session of
Congress and the Southern question. His
were cheered to the echo.
The meeting then adjourned amid the
music of the band.

RIcHFoRD, VT, July 25.-Information from
Canada says that there is great reticence be-
tween the Grand Trunk railroad authorities
and the Montreal, Portland and Boston railway
in regard to their intentions touching the pro-
posed railway crossing at Lonqueil. Mr.. Raw
mond, president of the Passumpsic road, was
in Montreal this week and had a conference
with his counsel. 1t is understood that the
terms proposed by the Grand Trunk authori-
ties are practically prohibitive in their nature,
one of them being that the Montreal Portland
and Boston railway shall guarantee the Grand
Trunk against all loss arising from accident to
life, limb or property. 1t is possible that better
