Trans planting.
From the New England Farmer.

From the New England Farmer.
There is scarcely any operation in gar
dening where there is so much opportunity
for the exercise of skill and good Judgment
as in transplanting. The skillful gardener
will move his plants so that they will hardly
receive any check in their growth, while
the careless removal Of plants or the choice
of too dry weather, with subsequent neg
lect, occasions the loss Of many thousands
of plants every year, and much disappoint-
ment. In order to bear transplanting we'll,
the plant should be in thrifty, growing con-
dition, but not by any means drawn" or
"long- legged" as gardeners are wont to
call such plants as have suffered from
crowding or too rapid forcing under glass;
they should be grown in sandy loom, which
favors fbrous growth Of roots, and should
be well watered few hours before moving,
so as to have the roots moist when moved.
Then care should be taken to have the loan
in which, the plants are planted moist
enough and warm enough to favor rapid
growth; and if possible, they should be
shaded from the sun and wind for few
days after transplanting, if the sun is hot.

Judge Cox and the Guiteau Trial.

New YORK, Nov. 26.
The Sun, commenting upon the Guteau
trial. says: GAS we have previously pointed
out. the court probably has no power to pro-
coed with the trial in his (Guiteau's absence.
The proposition to gag him is simply mon
strous II must be remembered that if Judge
Cox makes any error to the detriment of the
prisoners rights. the present trial will go for
naught, no matter how sane Guiteau may be.
The Judge evidently appreciates the impor-
lance of giving the defendant the benefit of
the doubt, whenever serious question of
law or judicial authority arises. No acquittal
is possible unless the jury are satisfied that
Guiteau is insane. Judge Cox means to
take care that in the event of a conviction, it
shall not be set aside by reason of any mis-
take on his part. We think he is doing just
exactly right.
1t is stated that Judge Cox is receiving a
number of letters, threatening him unless he
shall rule severely against Guiteau. One Of
Guiteau's experts has expressed the opinion
that if the trial of Guiteau lasts three weeks
longer, Guiteau will by that time be a driv
cling maniac. He says, outside of the ques
ton whether Guiteau was sane or not when
he committed the crime, there are evidences
of his mind rapidly failing in the past month.
which is shown by the decrease in his con-
tinuity of thought, as well in great
many other ways.

result produced in Pennsylvania
by the care and training given to SOL

..The State of Pennsylvania at the close of
the late civil war undertook the task of
providing education and maintenance for
all the destitute children of her dead and
disabled soldiers. In this benevolent and
patriotic task the State became the guar
dian and caretaker of 900 children. The
children thus provided for must in all
cases be in destitute circumstances-in
many cases they are found to be in con-
dition Of actual suffering. Their home
surroundings in the main could hardly be
worse. Orphaned by the war. their poor
mothers in most cases were unable to send
them to school, 10 give them employment.
or even to keep them out Of bad company

State they are generally very Ignorant for
children Of their age, and about As un-
