A Chapter about Trees. Under the above heading a correspon. dent of the Massachusetts Ploughman furnishes the following sensible article: As upon other rural matters, so upon this, a great deal has been written and a great deal more remains which may be written. The culture of trees has its own times, modes of operating subjects to be acted upon, and results to be obtained. 1. THE TIME.-All hardy Trees, fruit or ornamental, may be successfully trans planted at any season in the year, when the three following circumstances concur, namely: the Tree in a dormant state, the ground free from frost and excessive *moi sture, the weather above freezing tempe rature. Trees of the evergreen tribes, however, become so clmpletely dormant, or in a state of repose, for two or three weeks about the time of the summer solstice, that they are often successfully transplanted at that season. The very best combination of circum stances is that of the tree perfectly dor nant, the ground warm and tractable, the weather mild and cloudy, with a pros pect of rain. When a week of rainy weather immediately follows the planting of a tree success is almost certain to ensue. 2d. THE CITE OF A TREE.-AS in building a house, so in planting a tree, a foundation must be laid for it. For all kinds of trees, deep tillage is the first thing, and the second thing, and the third thing, and all of these things combined. For a tree five to ten or twelve feet high, dig a hole one and a half to two and a half feet deep; four feet in diameter will barely answer, but six or eight feet is a great deal better. If the ground in the bottom of the hole is hard, loosen it with a pickaxe, five or more inches deeper, then fill it up with the soil, a little of the sub soil and rich well rotten compost manure, intimately mixing the three together. 3d. PREPARING TuE TREE.-Pare the broken ends of the roots smoothly, al. i ways entering the knife upon the under side, and cutting with an upward slant. Shorten in top also, if the root is weak so that there may be a balance of power be tween root and branch. 4th. PLANTING THE TREE.-The tree should stand at the same depth in the ground that it grew previously to its re inoval. Deep planting, as an Irish gar dener expresses it is murder entirely. Let one man hold the tree, and another get on his knees and work with his fingers among the roots, straightening them out and filling up all the hollow places among them with generous rich soil, until the hole is completely full. Then press the ground, gently but firmly around the tree with the foot, and the work is done. If the soil is very dry, two or three buckets of water may be slowly peured into the hole just as soon as the roots are wvell covered, and before the hole is completely filled. Gene rally, however, this is unnecessary, ex cept perhaps for evergreen trees. 5th. AFTER TREATMlENT.--t is an eX thefistseaonaferplanting them. This is nothing more than covering the ground, for three or four feet around them, with a depth of two or three inches of strawv, leaves, seaweed, or the like, carefully pla cing stones or sods upon the top so that the mulching may not be blown away. Trees in any way exposed to the wind ought to be staked and tied the first sea son if no longer. Still further, all kinds of fruit trees, and generally all cultivated trees, require more or less care and attention as long as they live; and like domestic animals, they be come miserable and worthless by neglect. It is, therefore, of little use to plant trees unless one means to take care of them. A tree that has been set some years, and is not in a thrifty condition may be greatly benefitted by digging a circular ditch around it about two feet wide and twvo feet deep, and at a distance of about as many feet from the tree as the latter is inches in diameter. The roots should all be cut off smoothly, even with the inner side of the ditch, which should then be filled up with good ri soil, intermixed with well rotted compost manure, ashes, charcoal dust, or old broken bones. Old trees thus treated often renew their youth, and show their gratitude, for years to come, in the substantial form of bushels of lucious fruit, alwvays excepting the peach and nectarine, which should never, in this climate, be suffered to stand longer than eight or ten years from the seed. A few peach trees should be set every year to keep up a supply of this delicious fruit. To CLEAN PAPERED WALLs.--The very best method is to rub them with stale bread. Cut the crust off very thick, and wipe straight down from the top, then go to the top again, and so on. The staler the bread the better. GRowTH OF HArR INcREASED, AND BALDNEsS PREvENTED.-Take 4 ounCes of castor oil, 8 do. good Jamaica rum, 30 drops oil of lavender, or 10 do. oil of rose, anioint occasionally the head, shak ing well the bottle previously. CURE FOR CoLIC.--Take a pint of strong vinegar, a pint of lard, a gill of table salt, and one ounce of copperas, dissolve in a skillet over a fire, and then drench your horse with the mixture. These remedies have been adopted in Indiana and Kentucky, and have proved to be a perfect cure. Cow SHEDs.-If you have not already provided your cattle with cowv sheds, do so without farther delay-humanity to the beasts, as well as interest to yourself, call out for their erection.-American Farmer. OrrEN breaking up ausurface keeps a soil in health--for when it lies in a hard bound state enriching showers run off, and the salubrious air cannot enter. As von sow, you muszt rerap, B it GARDEN GATE. Stand back, bewildering politics, I've placed my fences round; Pass on, with all your party tricks, Nor tread my boly ground. Stand back-I'm weary of your talk, Your squabbles, and your prate; You cannot enter in this walk, I've closed my garden gate. Stand back, ye thoughts of trade and pelf I have a refuge here ; I wish to commune with myself; My mind is out of gear. These bowers are sacred to the page Of philosophiclore: Within these bounds no envies rage; I've shut my garden door. Stand back, Frivolty and Show, It is a day of spring; I want to see my roses blow, And hear the blackbird sing; I wish to prune my apple-trees, And make my peaches straight Keep to the causeway, if you Ilease I've shut my garden gate. I have no room for such as you, My house is somewhat small, Let love come here, and friendship true, I'll gave them welcome all; They will not scorn my household stuff, Or criticise my store, Pass on-the world is wide enough ; I've shut my garden door. Stand back, ye pomps, and let ine wear The liberty I feel, I have a coat at elbows bare; I love its dishabille. Within these precints let ine rove, With nature free from state; There is no tinsel in the grove ; I've shut ay garden gate. What boots continual glare and strife I cannot always climb; I would not struggle all my life I need a breathing time. Pass on-I've sanctified these grounds To friendship, love and lore; You cannot coane within these bouuds, I've shut any garden door. Frona the N. Y. Spirit of the Times. Tho Patent Rag Chewer. In a village not a hundred iles from lis place, there is established a papermill, which attracts no small share of attention rom the curious, and elicits many a visit, is all are of course anxious to see the pro. -ess of converting old rags into paper. It iometimes happens that those crowds of Wimirers of the marvellous, contain among their numbers some of those real matter of that kind of fellows who like something ' cause as well as effect, which may be Ilustrated by the following dialogue "I say, stranger, how do you get 'em re rags fine enough to make paper !" " We have mnen employed to chew them, ti," replied the paper manm. " To wvhat! to chew them did you say ?" "Yes, to chew them to be sure--did you ver hear of chewing rags to make pa r?"{ ow wvhat wvages you give, 'case I've >t a little the best set of teeth you ever d see," said the green 'un, grinning, ;nshing at the same time, in a way of :hibition, wvitha a fury that made the jest g proprietor quake least the joke should trn upon him, "I see, I see," replied lie of the paper* ill, ste ppitng back ; " I never saw a better t of teeth for business. Well we give eperienced hands S1 50 per day, and the new beginners wve give Si-do you think yu would like the business, sir ?" "Yes sir-ree, and the wages too !" re lied tho other with (lelighit. "Very w~ell, sir, you my set in now for amnonth, and at the expiration of that no oubt I will ratise your wages. Here you ay commence on this"-handing a sad le blanket to his much delighted appli ant who took it, anad set downa to his task ith as much sang froid as an epicure to awevll roasted piece of beef. "I say, old pard, do you think that 'ar lanket 'will stand ite anay of mny time at all? Why, I could chew it nll to smash p and swvallowv it before you could tell te what time the sun sets by Elton's Al manae." Hec set to work like a juvenile steam en glne, hi evy teeth grinding as if they ~vere milstones, the dust fliving, but des erately intent on earning good living wa es, though the labor was exceedingly batd ving. With the velocity of a Bengal ti er, and spirit wvorthy of a better cause, he martyr of the progress of science con inued his task, wonderinag beyond expres ion, in his own mind how nanny hands, r rather how matny setts of teeth, it took o do the chewing for that "tarnation big ill." But it was in vain that the heavy aws wagged, and the sharp teeth crushed, he pile of chewved rags (did not seem to row very fast and to add to the nachinaes felings of rising indignation, a crowd be an to gather around to witness the sin ular spectacle of a human opposi:ion to he rag breakers, sliaking the wvhole build ng from another apartment. " What in tarnation are you gapin' at ?" t last exclaimed the rag chewer throught a mouthful of rags in a state of mastica ion-" Drat ye, thar is fifty rag splittint' achines like me up stairs, all in a bunch -why don't you go up and see them?"' The crowvd looked very much delighted ad expressed themselves very highly pleased with his performance. "I know I can.'t go it like thenm fellows up stairs, for my grinders ain't used to it yet, besides I don't believe horse blankets is good to start on, but I tell you stranger, when it comes to vittels or to baken, I am thar." The fun began to rise, and with it the rag chewers indignation. " See here, stranger," he bellowed, spitting out his last attempt, and hallowed to his employer, who had just appeared-" blamed to blamed nation, if i'm goin' to sit here to be laughed at in this ere way-i-f you don't put me up stairs among the rest of 'em, I won't chew up anothcr blanket, darned if I do !" What!" exclaimed the -employer 'vitt a sober face, and very indignantly, " is that all you've got chewed lup ? And wet too, why man! Get out of this-you'l never do for this business in the world. There's a blanket ruined to all eternity, too for you've wet every mouthful, and how can we make dry paper out of wet rags l Come, move yourself in a hurry." The victim did not wait a second invi tion, but Went off in all speed, for fear he should be called upon to pay for tl '>an ket, fully determined hereafter to stick tc his lawful business, and let ' darned' paper mills alone. Love in a Eophead. An English traveller, after describing the fete given at Paris, in honor of the last peace with Great Britain, concludes with the following anecdote: " A lusty Frenchman, who from his head dress, a la Titus I shall distinguish by that name-escorting a lady, whom, on ac count of her beautiful hair, I shall style Berenice-stood on one of the hindmost benches. I'he belle, habited in a tunic a /a Grecquc, with a species of sandal which displayed the elegant form of her leg, wasunfortunately notofstature sufficiently commanding to see over the people's heads. It was to no purpose that the gen tlemian called out "a bas les chapeaux,' when the hats were off, the lady still saw no better. " What will not gallantry suggest to a man of fashionable education ? Our con. iderate youth perceived at no great dis tance, some persons elevated on a plank, spported by a couple of casks. Cornfi ding the lovely Berenice to my care, lie anished-but almost in an instant lie re. appeared, followed by two men bearing an empty hogshead, which it seems he pro cued from the tavern at the west entrance of the Tuilleries. " To place the cask near the feet of the lady, pay for it, and fix her on it, was the business of a moment. " Here then she was, like a statute on its pedestal, enjoying the double gratifica tion of seeing and being seen. But, for enjoyment to be complete, we must share it with those we love. On examining the space where she stood, the lady saw there was room for two, and accordingly invi td the gentleman to place himself beside her. In vain lie resisted her entreaties; in vain lie feared to incommode her. She commanded; he could not de less than obey. Stepping up on the bench, he thence with characteristic agility, sprang upon the cask. " But oh! fatal catastrophe! while by the light of neighpoi ing clusters of lamps, every one was admiring the mutual atten tion of this sympathising pair, in went the head of the hogshead! Our till then en vied couple fell suddenly up to the middle of the leg in wine lees left in the cask, by hich they were bespattered up to their ery eyes. Nor wvas this all; being too ager to extricate themselves they over set he cask, and came to groun~d rolling in it ad its offensive contents. " It wvould be no easy matter to pic ure the ludier-oni situation of Cit'r" Tj us and Madam Bernice. This being the nly burst of laughter seized the surround ig spectators, in which [ took so consid rable share, that 1 could niot afford any ssistance towards their enlargement. AN Ar-r REPLY.-We were amused, a ew days since, while sitting in a crowd, n a village not many miles fromi this, to ear the followitng dialogue, which took lace between M. D. and a negro, who, ut a short time previous, had the rmisfor une to bc one of the doctor's patients. It seems that the darkey was one of the sev ral patients in the same family, and among the first of the sick to recover. The negro passinig by discovered the :otor in thte crowvd where we were sit ting, and tihus saluted him- (at the samn time placing his wool-beaver carefully un der his arm.) "hllow you do, mass doctor?" "0, very well, whose boy are you?' replied the doctor. " Ise the boy you come to see last week mass doctor." "0O yes, well, how's all the folks dowr home ?' "0O, mass doctor, dey's all about, de all got well as soon as you quit comin." The doctor mizzled.-Horn of Mirth " Ji~r does your- mother ever whipyou?' " No ; but she does a precious sight worse though." " What's that ?" "Whty she washes my face every mor nig." "Saar," said one little urchin to anothe yesterday, " Sam, does your schoolnmaste ever give you any rewards of merit I" " 'spoe lie (toes," was his reply, "hlie give me a lickini' every day, and says I mern two."
