Mr.. Nicholas Merrill on Fruit Culture

Some important facts IN dnSa0er TO our
queries
Mr.. Merrill, we understand you
have bought the trees for several
acres more of an orchard do you
think it will pay?
Pay, it can't help but pay. A ten
year old apple tree, we'll cared for,
will average five bushels, which, at
fifty cents. means one thousand ta0o
hundred and .ffly dollars off of ten
acres. Now, Mr.. Hayden, is there a
farm in Garrett county of one hun
dred acres which yields that sum ?
Besides, other fruits, though more
trouble to raise, generally pay still
better than apples, Winter pears,
for example, bring four to six dol
lars per bushel, and pears do well in
Garrett county, Mr., Sweet, who has
travelled extensively, selected this

THE EXIbEs BEGGING SONG.
A Mournful and Thrilling Incident of N
Siberian HOud

Mournful and Thrilling Incident of the
siberian Road.
George KEENAN, in the December Cen
turg writes of life on the great Siberian
road, and describes the following in
cident: II shall never forget the emotions
reused in me by this song when / heard
it for the first time. We were sitting,
one cold, raw autumnal day, in dirty
post station on the great Siberian road,
waiting for horses. Suddenly my atten-
ton was attracted by a peculiar, low
pitched, quavering sound which came to
us from distance, and which, although
made apparently by human voices, did
not resemble anything that | had ever
| before heard.
ut was not singing, nor chatting, nor
wailing for the dead, but strange
blending Of all three. 1t suggested
vaguely the confused and mingled sobs,
means and enireaties of human beings
who were being subjected TO torture, but
whose sulferings were not acute enough
to seek expression in shrieks or higher
pitched cries. AS the sound came nearer
we went into the street in front of the
station house and saw approaching
chained party of about a hundred bare
headed convicts, who, surrounded by a
Gordon Of soldiers, were marching slowly
through the settlement, singing the
'eXiles' begging song No attempt was
made by the singers to pitch their voices
in harmony or to pronounce the words in
unison; there were no pauses
or rests at the ends of the lines; and !
could not make out any distinctly marked
rhythm. The singers seemed to be CON
stantly breaking in upon one another
with slightly modulated variationsof the
same slow, melancholy air, and the ef-
| feet produced was that of rude fugue,
or of q funeral chant, so arranged as to
be sung like round or catch by a hun.
dred male voices, each independent OF
the others in time and melody, but all
following certain scheme OF vocaliza-
ton, and taking up by turn the same
dreary, wailing theme. The words were
as follows:
