/"3 We copy the following interesting and
valuable article, from Reed, Austin & Co’s. Il-
lustrated Family Almanac for 1854. As these

To Agriculturist.
Ofall the fruits cultivated in the New
England States, no one is so valuable or
so generally raised as the apple; and the
discovery, therefore, of any means by
which this fruit can be protected against
the ravages of insects, and success in its
cultivation rendered more certain, must
be of great interest and importance.
In conversation, a few days since, with
J. B. D. Frazer, 'Esq., of Pictou, Nova
Scoiia, a gentleman of the highest res-
pectability, and in whose statements per-
fect confidence may be placed, we were
informed by him ofan experiment which
he had successfully tried upon some ap-
ple trees, with the view of ridding them
of the worms which infested them and
injured the fruit.
Observing that a large proportion of
the apples on his trees were stunted in
their growth, covered with hard 8XCl'CS-
cences of warts, and inclined to fall pre-
maturely, so that although the trees were
of well selected varieties, the fruit was
almost worthless, and ascribing these de-
feels to the agency of insects or worms:
he determined, if possible, to remedy the
evil. Among other experiments to this
end, he tried the following, and with re-
sults more satisfactory than could- have
been anticipated, and all that could be
hoped for. After boring a small hole
nearly to the heart-wood, in the trunk of
the tree, he inserteda small tube, (a quill
will answer,) containing thirty grains of
caloinel, blew the calomel outof the tube
into the bore, and then plugged up the
mouth of the hole. Although this was
a somewhat homcnpathic dose for so large
a patient, yet its effects were most deci-
ded ; for the third day after the applica-
tion, the worms on the tree showed un-
mistakble signs of discomfort, and on the
fourth, gave up all further contest with
their invisible foe, and fell dead to the
-ground,. But the most gratifying result
was the improvement in the fruit which
followed. The apples were not wormy
and covered with unsightly excrescences,
or inclined to fall prematurely, ‘but were
large, fair, and sound, exhibiting a most
marked contrast with the fruit on those
trees on which the experiment had not
been tried. As repeated trials made on
tree.<. in his own and the orchards of his
nciglibors have in every case been fol-
lowed by the same results, we see no
remedy should not be
lll|lVGl'S'dlly succes;-:ful ; and if so, of the
greatest value to fruit growers in every
country_._
reasoii why the
‘Ne suppose it would be quite suffic-
ient, even for the largest trees, to bore
two or three inches only into the trunk,
as a hole of that depth would penetrate
that portion of the wood through which
the sap rises. The calomel, coming in
contact with the sap, is mingled with it,
and diffused through the whole growing
parts of the tree, leaves, fruit, and all,
and thus enters into the food oftlie worms.
The best time for the application would.
undoubtedly, be when the fruit is fenn-
ed, and the ravages of the worms. com-

MAKING SHIRTS FOR A SHILLING
Or, Misery and Magnificeuce.
or c. -r. ai~<cxr.m-.
CIIAPTICR. V.
According to his promise, Charles
Cheerly called upon Mrs. \Valwer'. at
her room in street. He was not
taken aback by the poverty which met
him in his ascent to her attic apartment,
forit was not the first mission of mercy
in which he had been engaged. He
gave a slight rap upon the door, which
was opened by Mrs. \7VaIwert, who
apologized for the appearance of the
room, and handed him the only chair
which was to be seen, which he decli-
ned to use, telling her in the kindest
manner to use it herself. The boy and
girl were standing by the window, and
upon his entrance, looked at him with
signs of distrust and fear. This feeling
on their part arose from the fact that
the only man who visited the room was
the landlord, who being nowise gentle
in his manner, had left an unfavorable
impression on their minds in regard to
male visitors, The kind words of Mr.
Cheerly soon dispelled their fears, and
they ventured to take from his hand
some peaches which he had brought in
his pockets for them.
“I am sorry, sir," said Mrs. Walwert»
“that you do not find a more cheerful
room than this, but-—”
“ No apology is necessary at all, mad-
am, for your room. I came here to
render you a service, and at the same
time to get some information in regard
to the prices which are paid for the ma-
king of shirts.”
“I am really obliged to you, sir, that
you should think of being more kind to
me than you were last evening ; I am
afraid I shall never be able to repay you
sir, for your kindness.”
“ I ask no pay; it is a satisfaction to
me to render any one a service, which
is more than paid when I have it in my
power to make them happy for a time at
least.”
“ When my husband was alive, Iliad
need of assistaiice; but now, since he
is taken from me, I find it hard, hard
indeed, to keep my children and myself,
from want and suffering.”
“ How long has your husband been
dead '3”
“ He has been dead five years this
fall, sir.”
“ How did you contrive to support
yourself and children after his death P”
“By sewing shirts, sir.”
“ You must have been paid well to
enable you to do that. How much were
you able to earn every week '3”
“ Paid well 3” said Mrs. VValwert,
with a look of surprise; “ I was paid
fifty cents for five shirts !”
“ That is fifty cents each '3”
“ No, sir, but ten cents apiece.”
“ How many of them could you make
in a day '3”
“ Well, sir, if I sat steady at them
from morning till night, Icould some-
times make three in a day; but I was
not able to keep up at that rate, and
there were many days that I could not
be able to earn more than twelve cents
a day.”
“ How many hours did you work to
make that '3”
“ About ten, and sometimes twelve
hours a day ; but I had, besides that, to
attend to my house and my children.-
My oldest girl, who is now dead six
months, sir, used to help me. When I
had the rheumatism, I do not know
what would have become of me, if Miss
S. hadn’t found me out and given me
some assistaiioe. She was a very kind
lady who heard of me and came to see
me. She was very good to me ; I would
never have been able to get along with.
out her, and I know she has done a great
deal of good to more than me, and I al-
ways will feel tliankful to her for it.”
lioor Mrs. VValwert wa-:'deeply affec-
ted by the remembrance of the kindness
and assistance of this benevolent lady,
who had, without the slightest ostenta-
tious, done more real good than many of
the so called benevolent institutions of
the city. It would be well for the poor
if there were many like her; but such
unaffected benevolence is very rare.
" Vt7ell, sir ” resumed Mrs. \Val\ver;,
“ I could not get along at this work,and
I had to give it up. I told the lady who
atteiided in the store ti at,_ unless she
gavclmc something else, I could never
be able to. support myself and children,
—and, indeed, sir, we were on the brink
of siarvarion at that. time. I told her
that I wanted some other liind of work,
and so she gave me sheets to stitch and
some pillow-cases. They were very
heavy linen sheets for the double berths
of ships. She told me to make them
very neat, saying that she would give
me a good price. She did not tell me
the price at the time, but I thought it
would be better than I got for the shirts.
I got a dozen altogether ; but as I was
in very iiecessitons circumstances,’ I
eoull not wait to make a whole dozen,
and had to send in the half-dozen by my
little girl. I thought I would get a high
price for them, and was very ho ieful,
back, and told me that she would not
give more than thirty-one cents for the
dozen, and that she had got no more
than fifteen cents, my heart was nearly
ready to break.
sheets, because I expected I would be
well paid for them, and I made them as
neat as I could, and took great. care
with the stitcliing. But when my lit-
tle girl said it was all she got, I didn’t
know what to do. At last I went down-
myself to know if she wouldn’t give me
any more, telling her that I could not
make a living in that way; but instead,
of giving me any more, she abused me
in the most scandalous manner. Then
I was so vexed that I said that she
shculd not get the other half dozen un-
til she paid me :1 fair price for what I
had done; and, sir, if you had just seen
the work, you would say that they were
cheap at twenty-five cents a pair,instead
thirty one cents a dozen.”
“ How much could you earn every
week, sewing sheets like these?”
"I could not live at all, at this work ;
it would take two days to make half a
dozen.”
" But you must have had some other
means of support? Surely you could
not maintain yourself and family when
you were paid so poorly?”
" I had no other way but that at _the
time.”
“ But your little girl‘” said Mr. Cheer-
ly, "could she not obtain employment
in some of the work-rooms in the city T
She could. earn at least, a dollar a week,
and that would be a great assistance to
H
you.
“ I did try that, and had her at work
for a fancy box-maker's, and was in
great hopes‘ that we would, after a lit-
tle while, be more comfortable ;- but af-
ter she had been there four or five weeks
they refused to pay her at all. I had
just got; my little boy in :1 store a few
weeks ago, when he was sick from over-
exertion and had to leave.”
“ How long were you working for
this shirt store?” ' ’
“I think it was about four or five
rn nths altogether. And during that
time I did not average more than a dol-
lar a week. That‘ was more than a
year since, and then they gave better
prices than they do now. But I‘,don’I:
complain of the poor pay only 3 they
used to abuse my child so when she
brought the work to them. One time I
sent half a dozen shirts down to them,
and they were very neatly stitched; but
the woman who attended in the store
sauced my child, and told her that they
were so badly done she would have to
take them back. A man who was stan-
ding by looked at them, and said he
thought they were Very well stitched, in-
deed, and called another to look at it;
but she interfered between them,‘ got
quite angry, and told him it was none of
his business; so she sent them back af-
ter ripping the gussets. After thinking
what I should do, I concluded to go to
my friend, Miss S., and tell her all
about it; so I went to her; and when I
told her, she was greatly annoyed, and
said she would go right down and take
the shirts herself. I thought it better,
however, to let. the child take them,
and this time the woman said they
were well done, because there were
some persons in the store who knew
me 3”
“Could you make as much at the
shirts as you could at any other kind of
needlework which vou obtained at the
store '3” I
“No sir; wbenI got them, I made
more at pillow cases and towels. I
could make a dollar and a half a Week
with them, working steadily from eight
or nine in the morning until twelve at
night; but it was only once in a While
that I could get them.”
" How long have you been living
this house '2”
“About six months, sir; I lived, be-
fore that, in a room in street. I
had been sick while I lived there and
got behindliand in my rent. My dangli-
ter was sick aiid died there, which in-
creased my expenses so that I could not
pay for the room. The man who owned
it was a very cross old man, and used to
scold me when I did not have my mon-
ey ready for him. I told him of my
sickness and the death of my child, but
it had no effect upon him, and he insis-
I worked hard at those
. “ Have you been able to send your
_l children to school ?’,
" I have not been able lately to get
i them decent clothes. When they did
go, the children of the school, made fun
of their clothes, and they cried about it,
i and 301d me they did not like to go there,
and I let them stay at home. Oh! ma-
ny times I have cried when I thought of
their condition, poor thinois! I never
thought that my children or myself
would ever be so reduced, for at one time
we were in good circumstances. Ihave
worked, sir, till twelve o’clock at night,
from an early hour of a cold wintei-’s
morning, to try and support them and
clothe them comfortably, but I could not.
do it. I did a great deal of work by the
light of a candle till I could scarcely see
to stitch.”
" Are there any others in this house
who are as poor as yourself?"
“ No, sir; all the women have their
husbands, and live more comfortably
than I do. Some months ago there were
the shirts-sewers who lodged with me,
and who paid me thirty-seven cents a
week for sleeping with me in the winter
and for whatever fire they used, which
was very little. They did not make
more than a dollar and twenty-five cents
a week, and they worked hard to make
that. They were both good sewers and
did their work nicely and neatly. I have
seen them sit and sew until they were
not able to rise. They were paid one
dollar and twelve cents a dozen for the
shirts which they made, and they had
yokes and full bosoms. After stitching
for some time at them, the price was re.
duced to seventy-five cents, because the
person for whom they were made said
he could not pay more. Before taking
out this work they were obliged to pay
:1 deposit ofa dollar and a half, One of
them was a woman about forty-five years
of age, and the other about thirty. They
were very quick sewers, and if they got
a good price for their work they could
have lived very comfortably; but, after
paying me thirty-seven cents a week,
they had not more than seventy-five cents
for themselves, and with that they bought
tea and bread. It was seldom that they
ate meat, and they had always to eat their
bread dry, for they were not able to buy
butter. One of these women used to get
four cents for making a shirt without put-
ting in the bosom or collar; when she
sent them in, she got a cent more.”
“ How much did it cost them for food
every day alone?”
“ \Vell, sit, as near as I can judge, it
took about twelve cents; but some weeks
they would not have enough to
support themselves, and they were coin-
pelled to borrow twe ve cents, and
work hard the next week so that they
would be able to pay it again."
“ Your remarks really astonish me. I
had no idea that such a wrong was done
by Mr. Saintle ; I knew it was done by
others in the business. Iain glad, not
only for your _ own sake, but for the in-
sight it has given me into his character,
thatI met you as I did. However, mad-
am, he of good cheer; I have a friend
who wishes a boy to do light work, and
will take one on my recommendation,
and your son as soon as he is able, shall
have the place.”
" Thank you, sir; I really do not know
how to repay you for your kindness.”
“ I ask nothing, madam. I am not, at
present, well supplied with funds, as my
salary will not be paid for some weeks
yet, but I will see some of my friends at
Mr. Saimle's to-night, and I will see
what they will do for you. But if it
should occur that you should absolutely
want anything more than this dollar will
obtain for you, you must not hesitate to
call or send for me at this address.”——
Cheerly handed her the card of the firm
by which he was employed, and a gold
dollar. “ I shall positively call upon you
to-morrow morning again, and will then-
I hope, be able to give you some good
news. Good morning, madam.”
“ Good morning, sir, and may God
bless you !”
Charles Cl.eerley left the house with
a determination to shame Mr. Saintle for
his base conduct—-in what manner the
chapter will reveal. He had been gone
but long enough to reach the bottom of
the stairs, when he returned again and
said, bowing to Mrs. Walwert—
“ I beg your pardon, madam, but I for-
ted upon my leaving the room if I could
not pay the rent. He said that. I should I
not take any of my things away until I i
paid him. I begged of him to let me:
stay, but he insisted on my going, and I
spent a whole day in trying to find 'an-
other room, when I, by chalice, eaiiie
upon this one.”
“ \Vhat rent do you pay here ‘f”
“ I pay thirty-seven cents a week.”
“ How long have you been working
for Mr. Saintle ?"
“The shirts I took in yesterday were
the first I ever did for him, and I took a
great deal of pains with them, so that
he would have no cause to treat me as I
had been treated by others ; but it was
of no use to me.” Mrs. VValwert. here
gave a history of her taking the shirts
from Mr. Saintle, and the manner in
which she was treated.
_z\I~£~""f,,
\Vith an inward feeliiur f scorn fo
got to ask your name.”
" \Valwer't, sir, is my name; Susan
\V'.ilwert.”
“ Tlianl; you, madam,” and Cheerley
was soon in the street, ruminating on
what he had heard that morning, and
praying for the wealth of sundry rich
‘ men, that he might make the heart of
Mrs. \Valwert, and others situated like
her, jump with joy.
CHAPTER VI.
From certain indications of an increase
of fault finding in his daily intercourse
with his shirt-sewers, it was evident that
some new attribute of injustice, if that
were possible, was at work within the
breast of Mr. Saintle. Such, indeed,
was the fact. He had determined to give
a grand party to show his friends in
what style he could entertain them, and
' it was in order that the expense should
an nu‘ ‘ '
'-
1
1 me infamy of the act he cared nothing;
he had become callous to all feeling, from
E his long career in business, and be con.
' sidered nothing out ofthe way which en-
abled him to increase his income,
Great preparations hadibeen made in
the house of Mr. Saintle for this part.y_
His wife, who knew comparatively noth.
ing of the extent to which her husband
carried his business swindles, was active
in her endeavors to make the affair as
striking as possible, from the pride which
all women have (or should have) to see
their husbands appear in as favorable a
light as possible before their frauds.
" I have been thinking, my dear,” said
Mrs. Saintle, a. few days before the party
“'33 t0 be Blade, “ what shall we do for
music. There can be no real enjoyment
without it. Can’t you engage a pan of
some of the,cotillion.bands to come and
play for an evening?”
“ I might do that! But don’n you
think it would be better to hire a piano’!
You have invited the Misses Jones and
the Ningies, and they all think they are
splendid players, and their jealousy of
each other’s proficiency will keep them
at it all the evening, which will save us
the expense of paying for performers.-
VVe can hire a piano for the evening at
much less cost than we can get some mu-
sicians.”
“ Nonsense! they won’t know anything
of ii. \Vhat’s the use of having friends
if you can’t make them useful? I have
no doubt that they will be glad of the .
chance to‘ show off,’ and instead of think-,
ing it an imposition, will thank us in
their hearts for giving them the opportu-
nity.”
“ It rather goes against me, but you
can do as you choose. Will you stop as
you go down and order the lunch and
confections at Parkinson’s .9”
VV‘ith a feeling of self-adulation at what
he considered his smartness in contriving
against expenses, Mr. Saiutle turned his
steps towards his place of business. The
same round of fault-finding and oppres-
sion which had been his custom for years
was entered into the moment any work-
woman returned her work. His exten-
sive run of custom compelled him to keep
a great many hands, and this kept him
busy at his favorite employment. In one
ofthe intervals of respite which he had,
be observed a shadow cast upon the floor
of his store, and on looking up to see
what produced it, he_ saw a middle-aged
man with a book under his arm, and his
hands encased in silk gloves. The man
walked up to him, and, with a bland ex.- I
pression of countenance remarked: “I
have called upon you, sir, to elicit your
benevolence in which we all take, or
ought to take, a deep interest. It is a
matter of great regret to us, that is, the '
members of our church, that that build;
ing is in a dilapidated state, more befit-
ting a tenantless house than one where
we should congregate for worship, and I
have, at the request of the elders, under-
taken, with others, to procure from the
charitably inclined, the means of render-
ing it more comfortable, as well as appro-
priate for the purposes designed. I have
selected you, sir, from a knowledge of
your many charitable acts and donations
and would feel obliged to you if you
would add your name to this, as well as
the others. I have here a book in which
all my names are registered, and will be
published with the amount after I have
procured a sufficient sum.”
The idea of having a charity publish-
ed was me very bait with which to catch
Mr. Saintle, and he immediately opened
his pocket book, and handed the stran-
ger a ten dollar bill. He was not singu-
lar in this matter of having his charities
blazoned to the world. There are many
others who give largely at meetings
where their donations will be paraded in
the papers, who would spam :1 suffering
fellow-creature from their presence, when
there is no one near to see the act.
VVhen Mr. Saintle had paid over the A
money, he took especial pains to write
his name in a plain and distinct manner,
in order that there should be no mistake,
as was the case when he purchased the
pe\V in St. Church. The business of
the solicitor over, he left the place. Up-
on inquiring, a few hours after, of a reli-
gious friend about the mission of his col-
lecting friend, and giving a description
of him, he was mortified and incensed to
find thl1l.‘l.l1e fellow was an impostor, and
had been levying contributions upon va-
ous parties by the same story. The tem-
per of Mr. Sainile, it may well be sup-
posed, was not made any of the mildest
by this occurrence.
After partaking of his dinner, he 0011-
cluded not to visit the store any more ‘I01’
the day, but to devote himself to the PW‘
parations for the grand P‘1“3Y which was
to come offon that night. The piano
which he had engaged came in, and he
was busied in finding a proper situation
for it, which he concluded would be in
the side recess near the window, where_
as he observed “ those who passed W00“
hear it, and imagine that they kept an ar-
ticle of the kind in the house.” Aband-
some marble tazza. which he had pur-
chased at auction was filled with water;
and strewed with natural flowers. Which
emitted a grateful perfumery, and placd
