    Sunday In the Camp.
We find the following picturesque and
striking passage in a
_recent letter from the
Crimea
"Yesterday, being Sunday, the routine was
broken by the impressive ceremony of an
open-air church parade. Each division, on
these occasions, has divine service performed
by its own chaplain. Ours was drawn up
on the rising ground, just beyond the tents,
in a dense hollow square. The clergyman
and officers occupied the centre. Every one
was covered. Some of the men wore forage
caps, for lack of shakos; and on dit that the
loss of these stiff and ugly varieties of head
gear is submitted to with great resignation
by the line generally. The chaplain, with
his dark velvet skull-cap and black mous
tache and beard, reminded me of a foreign
padre in cannonicals.
We were scarcely placed in position, be
fore the loud rush of round-shot from the fort
was heard, again and again in our cars, caus
ing sundry dislocations of the square—the
men grinning and swaying about at each
whirr in a kind of jocular disorder. Nothing
was left for it but to move off. So we'took
up ground a few hundred yards lower down;
and - here—though a fleecy little cloud let,
which announced its birth in a thunderclap,
showed that a shell had burst above us, not
very far off to our rear—the service was con
ducted to a close. Everybody of course,
stands on these accasions throughout the cer
emony. To obviate fatigue, therefore the
Litany and Communion are omitted. The
chaplain preached extemporaneously and
with so excellent a voice, that though the
wind was blowing his surplice about, it did
not drown his tones. I was amused by his
British sang froid. Half his congregation
might perish round the walls of Sebastopol
before next church parade—a theme which
the threatening missiles exploding obout him
would have served sufficiently well to en
force—but he utterly disdained such obvious
rhetoric. Perhaps, indeed, it is considered
undesirable to make allusions of the kind,
and certainly they are too potent to need
much insisting on. At any rate, the reverend
gentleman neither noticed the pyrotechnics
in his sound practical sermon, nor in his
own person; but stood with his back to the
fort, and preached on some every-day text,
and never changed his voice or turned his
head in compliment to shot or shell.
From the Cermantown Telegraph
Treatment of Fruit Trees.
Mr. Editor herein propose giving you
the manner of treating fruit trees ; particu
larly the peach and plum, so as to make them
bear, and if suitable to appear in your well
prepared columns, you are at liberty to use it.
The following treatment of fruit trees was
communicated to me, by a lover of good fruit,
who has taken great pains to have plenty of
fruit, and that which-is good. In the begin
ning of the month of April, take hand full
of rock salt, and put around the roots, close
to the trunk of , the trees. Then leave the
trees until the first of May, when a good
coat of lime should be applied to the bodies
of the trees. At the same time, make a
strong decoction of hickory wood ashes and
water, by boiling them together, and apply
this plentifully to the roots of the trees, by
pouring it around them while in a boiling
state. This will kill the worms and insects,
or prevent them from injuring the trees. At
the same time, make a strong decoction of
hickory wood ashes and water, by boiling
them together, and apply this plentifully to
the roots of the trees, by pouring it , around
them while in a boiling state. This will kill
the worms and insects, or prevent them from
injuring the trees. After trees have been ac
ted on a. few times in this manner, the bark
becomes smoother, and the knots of - young
trees which are found particularly on the
plum, will disappear. The trees grow more
thriftily, and bear double the quantity of fruit
they would without the application.
It is often a complaint among many farm
ers, that their peach and pluin trees will not
do any good, but if they will try this simple
application, their complaints will cease.—
One of my neighbors who had several plum
and peach trees atm who had tried various
ways to make them bear, without effect, de
termined on cutting them down ; but after
some persuasion last spring, he was it - lanced
to dive this mode a fair trial. The result
was that his trees were loaded with good
fruit, and instead of having to buy, he had
considerable to sell.
Let each of your readers try it, and see if
it does not produce the desired effect.
Arborist-23 TVard, Philadelphia.
Goon AnvrcE.—ln commencino , a new
year, you should so arrange your system of
farming, as never to be at a loss throughout
the season for what next you are to do.—
"Make it a point of duty not to cultivate more
land than you can cultivate well. Let not
the ambition of being considered a large cul
tivator induce you to overcrop yourself. One
acre well plowed, harrowed and rolled, if
well tended afterwards, will produce more
thin three where these things may have been
omitted. The more nDble ambition for agri
culturists, is that which excites the desire
not only of being considered, but of being
in reality a good culturist, of so cultivating
his land as -that, while it yields abundant
harvests, it may be gradually improving in
its productive capacities.--American Far

ARMITAGE'S •
Electro-Magnet Lightning Rods
AfTER many years' close investigation
Li and numerous experiments, the Pattentcc
sakes pleasure in informing the public that he
has arrived at the true principles of protecting
families, dwellings and property frem the, de
structive influence of Lightning. The cal
amities that every City, ToWn, Village and
Country falls victim to annually, through the
gross negligence of its inhabitants, is beyond
calculation, especially when the remedy is so
easy to obtain--this is found in Ariiiitage's
Patent Magnetic Lightning, Rods, and in
this alone. This Rod has been examined by
the most scientific gentlemen in the world—
Professors liPillurtrie, Johnson, Wallor and
many others that have exa.i-.;ned them, recom
mend and speak of them in the highest terms
of approbation, and have pronounced them the
only safe rods in use in this or any other coun
try, for the protection of Lives and Property.—
One advantage is to divide and throw back a
part of the electric fluid harmless to the clouds.;
in time of a stroke this enables the rod to con
duct that portion of fluid that belongs to the
earth without the slightest danger of leaving
the conductor. This rod has many other ad
vantages over the old one. Tho only place of
manutheturing is in Vine St., 3 doors above
Twelfth, Philadelphia, where alt persons am
respectfully invited to call and examine for
themselves. For sale Wholesale and Retail by
THOS. ARIVIITAGE.
Satisfactory rsconnnendations can be seen
by calling, on the subscriber. All rods wet.
ranted.
SAMUEL HOOVER,
Hi~rtleton, Union Co., Pa.,
Is Agent for Huntingdon, and adjoining coun
ties, and will furnish the Rods on the same
