questions wholly foreign to the proper duties

with so little advantage to the country, as
during the late "session. It is due, however,
to the members of the"!-louse of Representa-

_“lt is not an uncommon thing for General
Scottto makea brief, terse, and eloquent ad-
dress to his men on the battle field. On such
occasionshe is ‘ extremely happy, and the
earnest and feeling with which he speaks
shows thathis whole heart is in tvhathe says.
Many o.'tbese‘addresses might be cited.-
Afterthe fall of Chapultepec he rode up the

had the appearance ofinhunianity,with these
Woi'ds;,“ Deeds like yours are recorded in
history. Be humane and generous, my boys,
you are victorious. I will get down on my
bended knees to God for you to night.”
Some of his‘ answers to the Mexican Com-
$_nand'er-in-clrief were brief and to the point.
The night’ before ‘the battle of Chepultepec,
Santa Annaisent Word to Scott, that unless
he stnrendered in four hours he would show
him" no quarters? Gen. Scott sent back that
hefound his (Santa Anna’s) quarters so far
very good ,'and that he should ta'l:e"p‘ossession-
of the rest ofthem without asking’ him to
show tifein to him li Aga,in,“when thetroops
were about entering the Capital," Santa Anna
sen: to‘Scottfor his terms. The latter_'s reply
was-—.“ I have no .answer to give and no
question to ask.’-”“‘It "was it time for action
and not for. parley. ‘-

"‘ Gen. Scott was educated to the bar, and
tin ordinary occasions (offtlie field,)he speaks
rather siowiy, and -with great -deliberation,
as well as with great eloquence. His differ-

Voters of Connecticut ! V '

There is no sight niore full of .' potent
interest than to observe the laboring man,
on every Sitturdnynight at our various pieces
of trade‘ in Not'wiilk. with his brisket on his
arm. nod purchasing the vtir.ot1s little necessa-
ries triid luxuries of life that are to keep him
and his family during the next period of seven
"days. No man ltowever poorly informed. but
knows that the better liis wnges are, and the
more constant his employmeimso much great-
er will be his happiness and the comfort of his
family enhanced. So for then. as tliei|' great-
est interests it re concerned, that niitioniil poli-
cy which will encourage employrnent is the
best fortliem. lt matter‘: not to them if food

provided the wages which they receive for lit-
bor, are raised in proportion. .

If we made in this country, whiit we now
0lJfl.Ii':'l from abrotid, more persons would be
eiriployetl in such worli‘, nnd more ltiborers be
needed.‘ Ir_ American labor and industry
should now be occupied in producing these
things which weget done for us in Engliind,
there would be of course it greater demand for
it, and such demand would keep up the price
of labor. i .

~ Are not then otir laboring community inter‘-
ested, directly and properly, in the support of
\Vhig principles. 'l‘lie \Vliigs wish to have
those articles ninniifactured here, that we use.
The Locofocos prefer that they should be
made in England. ‘A Which doctrine does the
most for the support of 0lJl'lnl30l'Pl'sl at home?
Tire VVlr_igs wish to make us iiiilependent of
England. The Locos prefer to depend upon
that country for the goods they use. \Vliiclt
is the party. laboring men. that will the best
support )'oui°‘ititei'es‘s? is not that piirt.y to
be:prelerr'et}. wliose principles would employ
the greatest nuniber of liibot'er's I Wlieu you
tir'e called upon to decide between Pierce and
Scott, will you not choose the innit who is in
favor of the encouragement of American la-
bor‘? V -

If Scott is elected, the \Vhigs will endeavor-
so to protect Anierictiii industry, that those
goods. we need shall be made at home, tlius
furnishing eiiiploymeiit to our own workmen.
If Pierce is elected, the Locofocos will choose
to continue the policy A 0fi|)l1I'Cl1tlSll‘lg from
England and France, thus paying their labor-
ers instead of our own. Now, this is all plain
true talk. It ciiitmot be denied. These are
the settled‘pr'inci'plt-s of both parties.

If it were not so, why is it that the impor-

tersof Birminglniiii, Mtinclioster and Liver-
‘ pool, are contributing so lavichtly of i.ll6"l'l’ mon-
ey, as we happen to know is the case, to nid

After his pacificntlion ofthe Canadian fron-

York gave him apuhlic supper, at which
Gov. Wm L. Marcy presided, when the fol-
lowing toast in his honor was drunk:

“The soldier, who has ever made the laws

who while he has always fulfilled its utmost
requirement.-i, has never, in a single instance,-
transcended its limits."

Tammany Hall. '

On Sept. 17th, 18-18, the anniversary ofthe
siege of Fort Erie was celebrated at 'f‘ar.*ima-
ny Hall, and Gen Scott was selected in pre-
side. The following toast was offered by the
heroic Col. Croghtin, and dran ' with all
honors. “ Gen. Vvinfieltl Scott. The sold-
ii-.r’s bo:ist—liis couniry’s pride— in battle ‘:1
roaring storm—mild as the evenine sun in
peace.”

“ ln an Pxpetience of more than fifty years
in the public service,l have never met it man
of more exalted \'ll'll]t"S He possesses high-

than a warrior; the lustre of his services in
.pi'esi-rving the peace of the country surpass-

ln 183."2Cien. Scott was selected by Presi-
dent. .ltlCl\'S0l), as a confidential agent of the
Government, to proceed to Charleston, and
there uphold the laws and power ofthe Gov-
ernnient,at the same time, that he sought to
conciliate the excited Nullzfiers. Gen. Lewis
Cass, then Secretary of War, in his Ofliicial
instructions, says : “He (President Jackson)
has full erntifiiliznce in your judgment and dis-
cretion. You are at liberty to take such
-irieasures as you may think prudence and it
just precaution requires." _

After-Scott had, in IS3‘.2,settled. the Black
Haul: difliculties on the frontier, and nego-
ltiated important treaties with the Sacs and
Foxes and Winncbagoes, Gen. Cass, then
Secretary of War, offered the folluwing trib-

How to make .0rclrards_-'

_ Continued. _
l/V/mt to plant an Orchard.-—'I‘he seafiofl
ofplanting mustibe determined by the~moist-
nesa or dryness of the soil to be planted...
Uri‘ all dry soils south‘ of the latitude of the
cityof Hudson’, it. is generally safe to set the
orchard in the fall, but on all moist soils it
should be done in the spring, as soon as the
ground becomes dry and warm. _

Jlfrrrlc of transplanting Trees '—-T.h'e apple-
tree often becomes worth one hundred do'=‘
lars or more, when planted in a good still,
good variety, and faifofablc location, and
continues under a proper culture more than
one fiffndred years in its prime. But with
bad culture it is tfnthrilty; unproduetitle, and
of comparative short tliurntiofl; often decay.
ing in less than fif:y years Too much at:
tention therefore can scarcely be given to
this deptiitirient of orchard-making.

I st, Prcpai-azidrts of the Still.-=-‘A deep‘
cullttire and heavy inanyflreifig is necessary.
when the tree is to be set, :1 hole should
be dug of eighteen or twenty inches in depth
and from three to six feet in width, (its time
rind circumstances determine.) ln- inaking
this hole, the surface soil should be left tre'a'r"
and the subsoil scattered. The Hole sliotlltl
then he filled with a rich soil, mixing there-
with from’ four to eight quarts of slaligd
lime, if convenient. Piireoff the bruised
ends of the roots with a sharp knife, and
set the tree so that it stand the same deptii
that it stood it‘! the nti‘rsei"i-y, and the g’t"oi'r'nd
in the‘ imiiietliate vicinity of the tree elevated
four or five inches.

Height of Lirnbs—-"f'ihis‘ should vary ac-
cording’ to the variety of tree planted, those
varieties wfiich have naturally‘ low limbs,
such as the Greening. Fall Pippin, &c.,

those that have an upward tendency should
form their head about three feet high A

fruit is easier gathered‘, tfsuialilly bears more

may be removed at any time. A-ssoo'n

chard, the knife sh-otllld be applied to cut
gawzry every side limb which new forms the
top, to within three’ or four inches of the
main stock. If there are no side limbs, 11
beautiful top may be had by cutting off t‘h'e
main stock, directly above where the limbs
5 projlect to form the top.
‘the limbs at this‘ time becomes necessary
from the fact, that all young‘ trees when ta‘-

large partiof their roots, as‘ they generally
‘ex-tend several feet in each‘ diirecfiorrfif-'i'oin
the tree. Tltte liirnbs forming‘ the top‘. there-
fore must 3‘i=:i‘e'ilt:'ced i'rr pro‘portion,~and' the
tree thereby will start to'gi"o'w vigorously as
=if it had not been reinoved. A single fact
\'l"i'l*l* Show its imnortantfe. Lyman
Qitfiay of I-leliron, New York-,«in-‘ 1‘8‘:3'i5, plan-
ted‘ five liu’n'dred applle ireesand’ treated them
as above rec’orrim'enii'ed'. The result was,
that but or‘r‘e‘t'ree failed to grow, and the ave-
rage growth of linifrs on each tree, (menstr-
ring the growth of each limb,) on the 499‘
living trees, was more than , fifteen fect‘the'
first season ; some oftheiii making it growth
of more than thirty feet, yet after all that
has been-"written, there is a class of‘ men
ivtio think “ they are the men’, and" that
wisdom willidie with t'l‘rerrr,"’ that reject the
experience of others, and’ * sub titute their
own self coticfeved Philosophy, and often
‘secure it total failure. These men you will
hear declaiming against book farming, as
they term it, and will not belpersuaded to
take an agriculiural ‘paper, and frequently
noiperiodicaliand thus shut tliemsellves out
from the progress and improvement of the
'age‘,—“iufant's-'a-‘hundred ‘y‘ea‘rs old.” But
to return t,o.the pruvning, it‘ should’ be per-
f0l"l'll8t'l* every year. Thie. top should he
formed by removing every’ limb that it will
ever be necessary‘ to remove; suffering
no limb to ‘ grow _‘ the "second year,

day. thereby di'recting- all - the.‘ ene9l'«gieS,0f
