The Kout Of The Canada thistle.

A correspondent of the Toronto Globe, who has encountered this pest upon its na- tive heath, says:
 "There is probably among the weed family none go well-known, widespread, and gener- ally dreaded as our Canada thistle. The pa- triotic ardor aroused in 8 Scotchmans breast at sight of the prickly emblem of his country is scarcely reciprocated by his Can adian son when ten or twenty acres of aro- matio purple loom up before his vision. However, such a scene is quite inexcusable, since little judisious arrangement will eradicate every plant within range of culti- vation. And just here desire to saddle the responsibility on those who decry summer following for the wide spread of Canada missiles. Many systems are advocated to de- stIoy the pest; but after a long series of ex- periments the following has been found eff fsctive: Allow the missiles to grow undis- turbed until they are almost in full bloom; then hitch three horses into the plough, at- tach one end of @ heavy chain to the plough head, while the other end should be fastened to the doubletree in such position that the drawing chain will draw every thistle com pletely under. Now work the surface with harrow and roller until sufficient mould is obtained to allow gang plough going; do not allow one thistle to show itself during the season. Finally, having thus e1tin- guished the enemy keep him under; and this can best be done by seeding down heavily with clover in the next crop if other circum- stances are favorable. I would recommend that barley be the crop to seed with. first, becase better catch is gene rally obtained; second, the financial result from a crop of barley from land treated as above will prob- ably be more satisfactory than from any oth- CT grain. In conclusion, why I recommend the gang plough is simply on account of the fact that deep cultivation is not 50 much re- quired to exterminate the pest as constant covering, consequently a farmer could run over his fallow twice with his gang for once with the common plough, and during the busy season this is very important"

Fenton-Barnum. .

The Brooklyn, N. Y., Citizen of April 18th has the following. One of the most brilliant weddings that has taken place in Greenpoint occurred there last night. It was the mar riage of Miss E. May Fenton, daughter of MT. Solomon Fenton, jr., of the Erie Pre- serving company, and Dr. Frederick L. Bar nun of New Haven, Conn.,, nephew of the Hon. P. T. Barnum. The ceremony took place at o'clock in the Methodist Episcopal Tabernacle on Manhattan avenue, in the presence of an sssemblage of fashionable people that filled the edifce to it's utmost capacity.
 The Fev. F. s. Bsrnum, also of New Ha- ven, Conn.,, and father of the groom, ofici- ated, and was assisted by the Rev. T. H.. Burch formerly stationed in New Haven) and MT. George E. Reed, D. D. Qate of New Haven), president of Dickinson college. The church was slaborately dressed with flowers; the inner chancel rail was decorated with smilax and other trailing vines, com pletely hiding it from view. huge fern tree formed the center piece in front of the pulpit, around which were arranged smaller ferns and plants in graceful and effective grouping.
 The organ loft and central aisles were also decorated with potted ferns and exotics that gave out fragrant, earthly odor which per yaded the entire edifce. The outer chancel rail had been removed for the occasion so as to permit the entire bridal party, consisting of fourteen persons, to stand within it's 1n- closure. Half way down the aisles were stretched broad white satin ribbons beyond
