MR. PlRSIDENT.-—Therc is a large class of
men who oWn from one acre to ten, twenty
and fifty. Now such men of necessity are
compelled to do all or nearly all their work
by hand, for the income of such small par-
cels of land would not warrant the expense
of purchasing the improved machinery that
would be required to run a farm of from two
to three hundred acres. You see at once the
inconvenience and great disadvantage that a
small farmer would labor under to compete
with the larger one. It would be better for
him to sell his land for what it would bring,
and hire out/by the day or month till he had
saved up money enough to buy a farm that
he could work to advantage. The next best
way for him to do would be to use his small
farm (if you can call it a farm) in the raising
of fruit and vegetables as it would be better
adapted to that purpose than a larger one.
It' would need but little capital and he could
find employment to occupy his whole, on
from one to ten acres. There would he no
danger of an over supply; not so much as
the raising of grain for this reason, in raising
grain he would have to compete with the
cheap fertile lands of the great west. You
might say he would also come in competition
' with the fruit growers of the south, but you
will observe that when fruit in this latitude
comes into market the fruit season of the
south is over, consequently, there would be
a good demand, and at good prices, for all
the fruit that could be raised. I would not
. be understood to'say that when his crops of
frrrit are matured, want picking and market-
ing, that he should have a hundred other
things on his hands to attend to and let it
rot and waste, but give it his whole atten-
tion, be located in a village where he can find
plenty of boys or other cheap help, have his
baskets and crates ready, have a market
found so as to know where his fruit is going
either-by sending it to dealers in fruit. or by
peddling it himself. I have before intimated
the great inducement the raising of straw-
berries hcld out if a judicious selection of
the varieties of Early Medium and Late, the
best mode of cultivation and marketing was
adopted. There could be rnore money made
from two acres than from an ordinary farm
of two hundred. There may be times
(but very seldom) when there may be a glut
in the market, but evuporators and cunning
establishments are being being used so that
none need be lost or sold below a paying
rate, and I venture to say_that we shall never
see the day when good ;fruit in good
condition will go a begging fora market.
The next in season comes the raspberry
Every man that owns agardcn or even a rod
of ground can easily supply himself wilh all
his family can use. From forty to fifty
plants of the most approved kinds will be
sumcient, and there can be raised fromseven-
ty-five to one hundred and one hundred and
fifty bushels to the acre with as little trouble
and expense as a crop of corn. The great
trouble in raising raspberries is, there are so
many unreliable and worthless kinds, and so
few that are hardy enough to stand our
winters. Some of the best fruit growers say
they have lost thousands of dollars by cul-
tivating these worthless tender roots. New
kinds that bear the highest recommend of
fruit, and others -that have proved them,
are, let, the Cuthbert, first quality, very
productive, and will stand the winter as well
as an oak. 2nd, the Gregg, the largest,
most productive, firmcst and latest. I find
this accords with my own experience except
the Gregg which is a little :tcnder, as already
it feels the effects Of the winter. I would
not discard it on account of its great pro.
ductiveness. Next comes the Tyler, the
ear-1., most productive, good size and very
hardy, and one of the very best. There are
a great many other kinds recommended, but
none any better. Now, in cultivating the
raspberry many are deterred on account of the
expense of staking. If the plants the first
season they are set out are trimmed as they
should be, there will be no necessity for it.
When they go. about two feet high nip off
the end that will check their growth and
cause them to send outside ; branches when
they have grown the same length clip them
off, and instead of having‘u long, slender
stalk you will have a well proportioned
stocky plant that will need no support, and
bear three times the fruit. _
The ground should be kept mulchcd, they
will need less cultivation, keep the ground
moist, and increase the yield. The red kinds
,increase from suckers, and they should be
kept Iloed off as soon as they make their ap-
pearance (except enough to grow fruit the
next year) as they very ruuch injure the
plants. The Black Caps propagate from the
tips. About September let the branches
grow till they reach the ground, fasten them
down and. cover them up with a little dirt
and all the plants can be mined that are
needed. If it is desired to raise them more
extensively plant them 4 by 4 feet and if
preferred drive stakes down to about two
feet, and string will fasten them to the top
and train the plants to the wires Trim .0111.

raising of peaches in this latitude of his
years has not been attended with as grand rc-
suits as some other kinds of fruit, as llzcy are
not a native of_this country. But. in a more
southern section they are raised in abundmlre
and with but little trouble. They scr-m l0
be doing better of late than yeirs gone by.
In my own recollection they have thrived
and proved as hardy and productive as any
other fruit according to 'the trees planted.
The great trouble in raising peaches now’ to
contend with is a disease called the yellows,
also the leaf blister and borers. Some
nurserymcn are adopting the plan of getting
their stock from the mounlains of Georgia
and Virginia where they are grown perfec‘ly
healthy, no disease known. It seems to be
contagious, and it is recommended that as
soon, as it shows itself the tree should be
destroyed, root and branch. It is the epin—
ion of some to be a minute insect called
Bacteria, that obstructs the sap cells, and
causes fine sprouts to come out. It is claim-
ed by some scientific men that a process of
inoculation similiar to that;pr'ucticed on the
human system in certain contagious diseases
will effect a remedy (experiments of that
kind are being made.) A man in the north-
ern part of the state, named Vanduzen,
thinks he has found a specific by applying
certain kinds of manurial substances about
the trees. Some of our Pomologists have
examined his trees that have been treated,
and found them perfectly healthy. Also 11.0
Maude operani and report favorably. The
blister on the leaves that came out ill the
spring can be prevented by dusting the
leaves with sulphur. It is not very serious,
but any thing that affects the leayr-s injures
the health, and lessens the ‘fruit. I do not
think the Borers are any serious objection l0
raising peaches.
I just clear away the dirtzaround the roots
about themiddlc Of May. As soon as the
eggs are hatched, take some soft agap and a
corn cob and give it a good scouring, then
take some wood ashes, put on all that will
stick, hand back the 'dirt, do the same again,
the last of September, and 1 will guarantee
that not ,one tree in a hundred will be
troubled with Borers. Ah insect called the
Curculio 1 think works about as bad on the
peach as the plum. The surest way to do
stroy them is with u Curculio catcher (dc-
scriptions will be found in fruit catalogues),
Commence as soon as the fruit begins to set
every morning once a day before the sun
gets veryvhigb, while they are in a dormant
state, and keep it up till the stone hardcns,
and you will be rewarded with splendid
specimens of fruit. It is also recommended
by nurserymcn that when the leaves have
dropped in the fall, to head in the
branches, especially when the trees are
younger, about one-half their length. It
hardcns the limbs, prevents the trees from
overbearing, make a better and more com‘
pact tree. I have seen it recommended to
take kerosene oil, put in carnphor gum and
pepperment, piece it in the tree and renew
it once in a few days and no insect can live
in its vicinity. Another remedy is to put
old clothes in the branches they will secrete
themselves in them and may be easily {dc-

Old Jack in the Well.
For twenty years an old man of our coun-
try, whom wc will call Jack Baldwin, has
cultivated the soil and drawn therefrom a
support for himself and wife; hcfis childless.
Not long since Jack left his home in search
of a missing cow. His route led him through
an old worn-out piece of clay land of about
six acres in extent, in the center Of which
was a well about thirty feet deep that at
some time had probably furnished the in-
mates of the dilapidated house near by with
water. In passing place the an ill wind drift-
ed Jack’s but from his head and maliciously
wafted it to the edge of the well and it tum-
bled in. New Jack had always practiced the
virtue of economy, and he immediately set
about recovering his hat. He ran to the
well, and finding it was dry at the bottom he
unrolled the rope which he had brought for
the purpose of capturing the cow, and after
several attempts to catch the bat with a
noose he concluded to save time by going
down into the well himself. To accomplish
this he made fast one end of the rope to a
stump hard by and was soon on his way
down into the well.
It was a fact of which Jack was less ob;
vious than the reader hereof—that a mis-
chievous fellow whom we will call Neal
Willis, was in the old building and saw Jack
go down into the well, and it so happened
that Jack's old blind horse was near by with
a hell on his neck. The devil himself, or
some other wicked spirit, put. it into Neal’s
head to have a little fun ; so he slipped up
to the Old horse, unbuckled tllc strap and ap-
proached the well with the bell in his hand,
ling—a-Iing. Jack thought the old horse was
coming, and said in an audible tone: “Hung
the old horse; he’s coming this way. sure, and
he ain’t got no more sense than to fall in
here on iIIe—wo, Ball 1" But the sound
of - the bell came closer, and Jack was
resting at the bottom of the well. “Great
Jerusalem i" said Jack ; “the old bind fool
will be right on top of me In a minit——wo,
Ball—we, haw, Ball 1" Just then Neal got
close to the we I and kicked a little dirt on
Jack’s head. Jack thought Ball was alnut
to come, got close to the side of lye well and
began to pray : “Oh; Lord,llave mercy on—
wo Bull l poor sinner—I‘m gone now—wo,B:rIl
-—Our Father who art in—wo, Bali—heach,
hallowed be 'I‘lly—jccl Ball, jcc! what’ll 1
do ?—name, Now I lay me down to sl-jec,
Ball, out of your livers! (just then in full
more dir-) back, Ball; Oh, Lmd, if you ever
intend to do anything for Inc—back, Ball,
wo, ho l—tlly kingdom comel—jce, Ball—Oh
Lord, you know I was baptized in Smith’s
mill dam—wo, Ball, ho’lupl murder! wo—
farewull worked.”
Neal could hold out no longer and showed
himself at the top of the well, with a. big,
hoarse burgh which might have been heard
two miles. This was more than Jack could
bear and he-srartcd up the rope like a. monk-
oy. “Blast your pictures, I'll give you fits "
Neal took to his heels and ran like a quarter
horse, and the last that was seen of him he
was half a mile from the well, with two big
dogs grabbing at his coat and Jack close be-
hind him.

An Affecting Senatorial Episode.
During the consideration of the “Presi-
tial Succession Bill” in the Senate last week,
just before its passage, Judge E imunds, of
Vermont, Chairman of the Judiciary Corn-
mittce, made a motion to re-commit the bill,
supporting the proposition by rather a sworn
criticism of the pending measure. This
brought-Senator Hoar, who had charge of
of the hill, to his feet, and in the course of
his remarks he alluded to the fact that Judge
Edmunds he‘d made no suggestion tending to
perfecting or improving the hill, and that. if
his motion prevailed the proposition Would
die with the 47th Congress. He said that the.
bill had been before the Cornmittcc'for a
year, and yet its Chairman, the Senator from
Vermont, had not found time to examine it.
Judge Edmunds regarded these remarks in
the light of reproof for his prolonged absence
last session, and rose to reply, but for error.-
his tongue failed him ; he faltcrcd, burst into
tears and hurriedly left the chamber, and the
Senate at once adjourned. The explanation
of this strange scene is as follows: Last year
a Lovely daughter of the Judge was dying of
consumption, and he left Washington to travel
with her, first to Europe, then to Florida,
than home to give her back to God. Anoth—
er daughter is said to be following her slgrl-
owy footsteps. withOut hope from human
skill or science, and it was the memory of
the recent past, and the prophetic fears of
the immediate future that chained the tongue
of the Senator from the Green Mountain
State, and broke down the stern barriers of
firmness and resolution when he arose to re-
spond to remarks that be regarded as impug-
ning his official conduct :— .
“Arrows that at random sent.
Found goal the Archer little meant.”
Scenes like these are instructive in: one
sense at least. They disclose veins of tender-
ness and humanity where they were hardly I
suppose to exist, and give us glimpses of the ;
sunny inner life of men who have never be- I
l'gre prrsented other than an icy exterior to
those who were widely separated from them

litical hellish—Aberdeen Eammlfncr.

The Pastor's Kind-loss Abused.
One of our city pastors tells a story at his
‘olvu Expense, He is in file habit of allowing
the choir in lhc church to select IIIU hymns
to be sung in public worship. Imagine his
aslonishmontund horror, a Sunday or two
ago, on finding that there had St'Il‘CIt‘d for
the opening'ScI'vicc ll l-yrnn “for :r CIlfIl'CIl
serking a pastu- :"
‘ O L ~rdl III Ways of peace leturu,
Nor let llly ll lclt neglected mourn;
May our blest eyes It shepherd see,
Deaf lo our souls, and draw to Thee."
He did not give out that hymn. IIc looked
for a hymn for a church s wiring a. new choir,
but failed to find any. He thinks of writing
0118.
The following gowl :tory comes froma
qualtcr Where We are assured “it-1 correct-
ness can be Vouchcd for.” Many years ago,
ut the time of a great ceremony, Windsor
lastlc was honored with the presence of
three sovereigns. After breakfast the three
potentatr-s walked and talked on the cele—
brated “Slopes," and Were, of course, in
“rnufti.” They were delighted with the
grounds, and presently entered into conver-
sation with a gardener, who evidently took
them for a party of “gentlcmcn's gentlemen"
out for a stroll. After some little affable
talk he could not resist the query : “Now,
who may you gents be 'r" “Well," said the
spokesman, “Ibis gentleman here happens to
be the King of Prussia; that one standing
by your side is the Emperor of AUS‘I‘III;
and as for myself, I am the Emperor of
Russia" This was carrying the joke too‘
far, thought the gardener. “I’Vc scan a lot
of queer fur-rin gents llcre latcl", but this
beats me," so he burst out in a rather rude
guffnw. “Well, rnyfriend," said the Eul-
peror Nicholas, “you seem amused; perhaps
you will tell us who you are." “Oh, cer-
tainly,” so taking up the skirt of his coat
with the action of a great elglc spreading
out his wings. and spinning round on his
heels, he said. “If you are all what. you
say you are, why I am the Great Mogul!“
The three magnesties roared with laughter,
and returning to the castle told the story at
the luncheon table, to the immense amuse-
ment of the Queen and Prince Albert——
London Society.
“N of: Guilty."
A member of a church congregation in
Wisconsin was last fall charged with gamb-
ling in stocks and brought rlp b-if'oro a com-
mittee for investigation. The trial began by
a deacon asking: .
“Brother Smith, the charge is gambling
in stocks."
‘ “Yes air.”
“And you plead not guilty ?"
“No, sir, I plead guilty."
“Then you do buy and sell stocks, specu—
late in wheat and oats, and sell futures in
'pork f” ‘ .
“I do sir. Didn’t I give $1,000 in cash
to help build the church ?"
Hires.”
“Well, I scooped that in on a little deal in
pork. Didn’t I pay $500 on the organ ?”
“YES. I!
“That was part of my profit on a spec of
oats. Didn't I foot up a deficiency of $400
in the minister’s salary this year?"
“Yes."
“That came from a risciu stocks. Didn't
I chip in $700 towards the parsonage ?”
“Yes."
“That came from a corner in oats. Haven't

"You have".
“Well. that means more corners and hold-
ing on till I felt my llairgrowing gray._ Gen
ticmen, I will step out for a moment and let
you reach a verdict."
He stepper] but it was only thirty seconds
before he was called in and congratulated on
the verdict of “not guilty.”
When the meeting Ilari been called to order
Brother Gardner arose and said : "Gen'len,

The song of “Audio Laurie" was erllul
by William Douglass, of Fin'and in file
stewardry of Kirkcudliright, hero of lIlt: Sim-,1
“Willie Was a Wanton Way.” Annie Laurie
was the eldest of the three daughters of Sir
Robert Laurie, of Maxwelton. Her birth is
thus recorded by her father in the family
reglster: “At the pleasure of the Almighty
God. my daughter, Annie Laurie. was born
0n the 16th day of Dcccrnber,1682 years,
abiut 6 o’clock in the morning, and was bap-
. fized by Mr. Geo." (llunter of Glen'CIirn}
From the curious collection of manuscripts
left by Mr. W. F. H. Arundcl,of Bnljsry
Tower, Dumt’rir-sshire, We learn that Annie.
was wooed by Douglass, and that she refused
him. He thenmude a runaway march with
a Miss Elizabeth Clark, of Glenbcrg. in Gal
loway. In 1700 Annie married James Fer"
gusson, the hero of Burns’ song “The whisu
tie." James Grant, in his novel, “Walter
Fenton; or, The Scotlish Cavalier," gives a
fullaccounr. of the composition of "Anni?
Laurie.” The early vcrsisn of the song I‘ll”
follows:
Mastlrnn's banks are bonnie
Ithre early fa’s the dew;
Where Inc and Apple Laurie
Made up the promise true;
Made up the promise true,
And ne’r-l- forgot will I,
And fur bonnie Annie Lamina
I’ll lay me down and rice.
She's backit Hire the peacock
Sllt'a’ brca'rlit like the 3mm;
She’s limp about the middle:
IIer waist ye wee! nlicht span
Ilcr waist yr: wcul micht span,
Arid she has a rolling eye;
And for bonnie Annie Laurie
I’ll lay me down and dce.
The most touching story connected with
the song is that told in Bayard Taylor's
“Crimean Incidents :"
They lay along the battery’s side.
Below the smoking cannon.
Brave hearts from Severn and fronl Clyde.
Aurf from the banks of Shannon.
And there, in sight of tile Redau and the
Malakoff, with to-morrow’s battle coming,
some one called for a song, and——
They sang of love and not of fame,
Forgot was Britain's glory,
Each heart recalled a different name,
But all sang Annie Laurie.
Dear girl, her name he dared not speak,
But as the song grew louder,
Something upon the soldier's cheek
Washed 0115 the stains of powder.

._ My saga"...
The following verses are from the pen of
film late Colonel A. W. Slayback, of St.
ouls.
Upon my mantel in a row
Four simple pictures glow, _
With’shining frames about them placed
Of neat and modest taste;
'Four images of daughters mine—
Four little darlings, rare and fine—
Whosc faces beam with light divine ;
And here I've made my shrine.
The place is more like sacred ground
Than any I have found ;
No dome of fresco reared by art
Can so impress my heart ;
- ’Tis here I feel remorse begin,_
, With chntrite grief for every sin ;
And faults that, close to crime akin,
Make Heaven so hard to win.
And here my soul, remote from crowds,
Is shadowed by no clouds ;
Aloof at last from tangling care,
I lift to God my prayer,
And He that doth in secret see,
In secret seems to answar Inc,
For sake of these that I may be
From secret sin kept free.
Alone I seek at this poor shrine
Tile face of God divine.
In public no one is sincere,
For all are tinged with fear ;
But here my basil is all laid bare
To Him who doth for sparrow care;
To Him I left a parent’s prayer,
"Wilt thou these children spare ?"
G i II C $ C
This is my prayer, I say and feel,
As at my shrine I kneel';
And lo! though absent far and wide,
I think them at my side.
And hosts celestial come and go
On radiant wings as white as snow.
Till heaven above and heaven below
Have made my shrine aglow.
But. no intruding eye could see
The light that shines on me;
Four little pictures on the wall
To others would be all ;
And yét to me the thought is given
Of such the Kingdom is of Heaven.
And from this shrine despair is driven
By hope to be forgiven.
Gen. Neal Dow’s Rut Story.
THE STORY THE FATHER 0F TIII PROHIBI-
TORY LAW TELLS.
My house is supposed to be rat-proof, and
was so when quite new, but at one time,
more than twenty years ago, we had a large
colony of the rodents, greatly to our annoy-
ance, and it was with us a matter of daily
wonder where they found a weak spot in
our defenses against them. One evening I.
young lady from a friend's family, living in
a large, fine house, nearly a, mile away, was
with us, and the talk turned on rats, as we
heard ours galloping in the ceilingaud scam-
pering up and down the walls. The young
lady said that none ilad ever been In their
house, and she did not think there was any
point at which they could enter. My eldest
daughter, a great wit, said: “I've heard
that, if politely invited to do so in writing,
rate will leave any house, and go to any oth—
er to which they may be directed, and I will
tell ours that at your house they will find
spacious quarters and an excellent commis-
sariat."
At the moment, before us all, she wrote a
most grandiloquent’letter to the large family
of rats that had so long favored us with their
presence, pointing out to them that at No. 64
Pearl street was a large, fine house which
had never been favored with any of their
family, where they would find ample quer—
ters and a fat larder. When firluhed, she
read. the missive to the company, and we
had a great laugh over it. As an old super—
stition, she then put lard upon it, and curled
into the attic, where it would probably be
found by those to'whom it was directed to
A few days after the young lady was In our
house again, and burst into a laugh, exclaim-
ing; f'Oer house is overrun wirh rats!”
That recalled, to us the fact that we had hr ard
none in orlr wgllr. My daughter Went to the
attic and the letter was gone. IVhile we
were talking and laughing over the Curious
smu- a friend came in, snd hearing the talk,
said that two evenings before, in the bright
moonlight, he saw several rats running down
Congress street, which was the straight road
to Perl street. We have never been troubled
with them since, but I have not heard how it
has been wilh the house to which our benefi-
ciaries were directed—Correspondence of the
