and power as a nation of the first
magnitude. Trade, the holding of
her own, the preservation of the 0ti
PoSsidetis, and a Jealous watchfulness
of all nations, are the chief concerns
of her statesmen and the source of
painful anxiety to her active, indus
trious, earnest, proud and selfish peo-
Pile. Jealousy and dread of the
French still linger in the minds of tho
English masses. They know that an
invasion is possible, and that they are
not prepared with land forces suf-
ticient to meet formidable invasion.
To the world the along accord between
the two governments seems to indi-
cate a mutual friendliness, and it does
in fact exist to considerable extent.
The brave, stout, andeven loyal Eng
lishman has ceased to take comfort
from his courage in the use of the
baycnet. The long range and repeat
ing arms of the day have stripped
them of their fancied supremacy at
the critical moment when the bay
onet is whipped on to end stubborn
and doubtful struggle. The navy of
France is waxing strong daily, and
so, too, is her commercial marine, as
must needs be in consequence of her
acquisitions of territy in Asia, Mad
agascar and Northern Africa. Her
naval power must increase as she ex-
tends her distant possessions or makes
new acquisitions. And this makes
England uneasy and must endanger,
sooner or later, the peace between
them as it multipIIes the chances of a
violent clash of interests, to be solved
only by an appeal to arms. England
will, and must, at all hazards, MAIN
tain her supremacy in the sea. As
long as she does that, she is safe. I
see no reason why she should have
any misgivings on this score, for it
may yet be said of her rs was said by

To sec ourselves es others see u8."

England's condition is such, I ap-
prehend, that she is impelled by con-
siderations of national existence to
do many things that she might not do
were she differently situated and less
dependent. The constant dread of
the English is lest her power should
wane and her sun set never to rise,
and that like Greece and Rome she
will be known only in history. Self
preservation seems to he her main
spring of action, the life of the nation,
and in that name, like in that of lib
erty, deeds are done that shock hu-
manity and seem to give the lie to
her boasts and pretentions. She, like
all the powers of Europe, is in con-
slant dread of some great national
calamity, in her case-as the loss OF
India by revolt or encroachments OF
the Russians, and consequently a
diminution of trade. Commerce, ac-
tive commerce with the whole world,
seems to be the very life of her, and
a necessary condition to her safety

All the long struggle, the heartache, the

Never to yearn again. never to sorrow.
Sleeping so calmly in blessed repoec-
sleep through tho night. We shall greet the
tomorrow.
When thou shalt arise as our Saviour arose.
Safe in earth's bosom thou Iiest. dear brother.
Watched by the Love that illumincs the

Kind are the heavens as the face of a mother,
Gentle the glance of the stars holy eyes.
Brighter than crowns of the worlds brightest

All thy long gentlcness. patience untold
Shines in Gods rccord-a beautiful story,
Blazoned forever III letters of gold
And the great Reader who turns our llfe's

Safe in Hispresence, through all the long ages,
Keeps thee to toll and to suffer no more.

PRUNING THE GRAPE VINE.

Mr.. W. w. Mech, Vineland. N. J., writes :
Grape vines that have come to bearing age
may be pruned in such manner az to be
very certain of the results. By examining
the vines while they are growing, one can
very readily see which buds of the previous
ye ar growth have produced the branches
that are producing the crop of the current
year. This will serve as a guide to the
pruning of the next crop, and so on from
year to year. Shoots from canes older than
the last year very seldom produce anything
but wood, but that wood is all right for
crop the next year. The shoots from the
axillary buds, where the new and old wood
come together, will hardly ever produce any
grapes The first bud beyond the sxil will
be found to yield fruit. but the clusters from
the next bud, and for several further oD,
will generally bear the shouldered punches
of the crop. / have found in my experience
that six buds on strong cane. 80 selected,
will generally yield three fine clusters eacn
and occasionally four. Up to the capacity
of the vine, we may look for this number OF
clusters from the buds of very strong and
vigorous canes OF the last years growth
Hence, according to the number OF perfect
clusters we estimate the vine capable Of pro-
ducing, we can readily select those giving the
best promise. and cut all the others off. This
plan of pruning greatly reduces the labor as
compared with the old method of leaving
spurs of one or two buds all over the vine,
and gives little wood aud many grapes

We see that the Courier man and
his correspondents are exercised about
the fact that so many Republicans
patroniZe the TELEGRAPH. If the
proprietors of the Courier wish to win
the subscribers of the TELEGRAPH,
there is one sure way to do it, namely,
to make the Courier a better newspaper
than the TELEGRAPH. There is no
other way. Perhaps the Republicans
of Kenosha County have not forgotten
the fact that the Courier was started
as a Democratic newspaper, and
changed its politics to make money.
It's owners can depend on one thing,
and that is, so long as the TELEGRAPH
continues to be the better newspaper,
it will have the largest subscription
list.
