John Adams Pupils.

After taking the degree of Bacheloe
Of Arts at Harvard John Adams taught
school at Worcester, Mass. In the fol-
lowing letter, written March Is. l756,
be gives lively description of his
school and certain thoughts thereupon.
The letter was to Judge Richard Cranch,
of Boston:
II sometimes in my sprightly mo-
ments consider myself in my great chair
at school as some dictator at the head
of q commonwealth. In this little state
I can discover all the great geniuses, al
the surprising actions and revolutions
Of the great world in miniature.
Il have several renowned generals
but three feet high, and several deep
projecting politicians in petticosts. ]
have Others catching and dissecting
flies, accumulating remarkable pebbles

osity as any virtuoso in the Royal so
ciety. q
''Some rattle and thunder out A, B,
c, ETC., with as much fire and inlpetu-
osity as Alexander fought, and very
often sit down and cry as heartily upon
being outspelt as Cesar did when at
Alexanders sepulcher he recollected
that the Macedonian hero conquered
the world before his age.
Atone table sits Mr.. Insipid. foppline

When to Plant.

AS the seasons for planting in Florida
vary so much from other States, the
following data, prepared by a close OBJ
server, may be of interest:
JANUARY-Plant Irish potatoes, peas,
turnips, cabbage, and all hardy or semi
hardy vegetables; make hot beds for
pushing the more tender plants, such as
melons, tomatoes, okra, elephants, etc.;
set out fruit and other trees and shrub
berry.
FEBRUARY-Keep planting for sue
cession, same as in January; in addition,
plant vines of all kinds, especially of the
citrus family, snap beans, corn; bed sweet
potatoes for draws and slips. Oats may
also still be sown, as they are in previous
months.
MARCH-Corn, oats, and planting of
February may be continued; transplant
tomatoes, egg plants, melons, beans, and
vines of all kinds; mulberries and black
berries are now ripening.
APRIL-Same as March, except as to
tomatoes, turnips, etc.; continue to
transplant tomatoes, okra, egg-plants;
SOW millet, corn, cow-peas for fodder,
plant brittle-beans, lady peas; dig Irish
potatoes; onions, beets, and early vege-
tables are ready for table.
MAY - Plant sweet potatoes for or
ders in beds; continue planting corn
for table; snap-beans, peas and cucum-
bers are we'll forward for use; continue
planting other vegetables for succession.
JUNE-The heavy planting of sweet
potatoes, tomatoes, and great variety
of table vegetables are now ready; also
plums, early peaches and grapes.
JULY-Sweet potatoes and coW-peas
are safe to plant, the rainy season being
favorable; grapes, peaches and figs are
in full season; orange trees may be set
out if the season is wet.
SEPTEMBER-Now is the time to COM
mence for the true winter garden, the
garden which is commenced in the North
in April and May Plant the whole range
OF vegetables, except sweet potatoes; set
out asparagus, onion sets and straw
berry plants.
OCToBER-Plant same as last month,
put in garden peas, set out cabbage
plants, dig sweet potatoes, SOW oats, rye,
etc.
NovEMBER-A good m onth for garden
ing; continue to plant and transplant,
same as October; SOW oats, barley and
rye for winter pasturage crops; dig sweet
potatoes, house or bank them; make
sugar and syrup.
DECEMBER Clean up generally, and
fence, ditch, manure; SOW and plant hardy
vegetables; plant, set out orange trees,
fruit trees and shrubbery.-St. Augustine

The Citron for Florida.

The reason of this is because our people
do not understand the methods or have
the facilities for the preparation of the
fruit for market. That it is a valuable
product cannot be doubted, and on this
subject Mr.. T. T. Eyre contributes thefol-
lowing to the Fort Myers Press:
1t is over three years since commenced
to work up the citron industry here. I
have met with many obstacles. First
listened to those who knew nothing
about the citron of commerce. The Bit
ter seedlings scattered about this part of
Florida and bearing so prolifcly were
credited with virtues they did notpossess.
procured several, and found all to be
worthless for the trade, and threw away
5000 Young trees, as I have sufficient
sour orange stocks to bud when the right
kind is determined.

one could hear of that had experience
and trees bearing. [ had samples ex-
pressed me and made tests The samples
from Rev. Lyman Phelps, of Sanford,
Fla, gave the best results, but they are
too small and thin for me to recommend

matter and condition of affairs before

gist, Prof. II. E. Van Deman, of that de-

true citron introduced into the United
States, so California and Florida can
both have a chance to see il it can be
made q success in this country.
The Caloosahatchee valley can and will
in the near future make the raising and
planting of the citrOn of commerce one of
her great industries. The soil and climate
is all that can be asked. We have some
rich lands and our summer rains are Just
the thing to fill out the fruit-no irriga-
ton required, as in Europe.
The citron has but few enemies, does
not crack and fall off like oranges. 'fhe
fruit can be gathered when right for salt
ing in brine, and worked up at will, and
sent to market in good order, as it will
keep in any climate.
With our improved yankee" methods
we can put it up as cheap as they can in
Europe.
It sells wholesale at Is to "a cents per
pound in the large cities-the best article
retailing at 35 cents, the poorer kinds at
25 cents, pat up in boxes ranging from
six to twenty-five pounds each and then
put up in large cases containing ten or
more boxes. 1t requires about eighty
pounds of sugar to 100 pounds of the
fruit to make a good article.
There is about 100000 pounds put
up in Leghorn, employing over 800 men
in the factories alone. In 1885 the United
States took 1,819,764 pounds, and a
duty of 80 per cent. is paid, so there is
no experiment about it on our part-we
know that any kind of citron grows well
here and under the most neglectful care
or no care at all.
Our only drawback is our lack ofcheap
and quick transit, which will be here per-
haps by the time we most need it, When

INCOMPETENT LAwYRRs.
A Movement to Make Admission 50 she
Bar More DiMeult.

New YORK, Jan. l6,-David Dudley
Field and few other rich lawyers are
back of o movement to make admission
to the bar more difficult than it is now.
The movement, it is thought, will
become popular, as all the members of
the bar, desireing to avoid competition as
much as possible, approve it, and all who
have experience as htigants with Courts
and lawyers are ready to give it their
cordial Endorsement. Ii is proposed to
make the examination OF candidates
more thorough and to put other obstacles
in the way of their ambition. Now q
hod carrier can attend school one or
two Winters, pass an examination, and
become a full-fedged attorney. This
city is overcsowded with lawyers. A
few OF them are rich, others are in oom-
Portable circumstances, but the great
msjority are destitute aud DOT few Of
them occasionally suffer the tpangs Of
hunger. How many Of them exist is a
mystery. They give the police q good
deal Of trouble as they commit many
petty offenses, and with tact which the
legal training gives them to cover up
their tracks, defy detection. 10 speech
at meeting of the bar, held to discuss
this question, one of those called at
tention to the fact that there are TO-
900 in this country, whereas France has
only 5000 aud Germany 1000. If there
were fewer lawyers, the speaker said,
decisions would be more speedily arrived
attn all the scases brought before the
Courts.

THE BRAZILIAN REPUBLIC

some or the Soldiers opposed 30 1t
New YORK, Jan. l6.-Csptain Gromes
OF the steamer Herschel, from Rio Jan
eiro, which arrived yesterday. gives
news of an encounter between the SOL
ders in that city. 1t seems that on
Dec. Is, it was discovered that part of
the army, about 200 men in number,
were opposed to the republic and strongly
favored the monarchy. The provisional
government sent company of srtillary
to arrest the insurrectionists. They
pened fire on the soldiers aud it was
reported that over 100 men were killed.
A correspondent of G. R. Flint writes
from Rio Janeiro under date ef Dec %:
"The outlook here just now is not reassur
ing Last evening parts OF two regiments
of artillery mutinied, core up the republi
can flag and hoisted the imperial flag;
and it required all the other regiments,
cavalry, infantry and artillery, to sub
due them. They fought till after IL
o'clock and hundred of the rebels were
killed and wounded before the rest sur
rendered. Next day twenty.one of the
ring leaders were shot. The trouble was
owing to the dissatisfaction of the soldiers
with their pay. 1t is said number of
old conservatives and liberals have been
tampering with the soldiers and were at
the bottom of the row, and several prom
inent citizens have been arrested in con-
nection with last nights row."
