A French Treatise, on " Marriage in America"

library to the Sorbonne; it contains 14,000 vol
umes. He asks that it be left in the place it oc
cupied at his death, so that readers who frequent
it will be, as it were, forever received in the lodg
ings he occupied. He forbids, in the Most posi
tive manner lending the books out of the library.
He founds a fund for the library, viz.: $BOO for
the librarian, $4OO for the deputy librarian, $2OO
for a messenger, $6OO for keeping the books in
preservation. He appoints M. Barthelemy St.
Hilaire as the first librarian. He gives M. Mig
net $20,000 ; bequeaths small legacies to servants;
leaves his papers to M..Barthelerny St. Hilaire,
and charges him with writiting his, M. Cousin's,
biography, and makes St. Hilaire, Mignet and
Mervyn his residuary legatees. It is thought
they will have some $BO,OOO to divide between
them.

have no idea of the extent of Mr. Buckle's care

after it was, all written, he went over it again to

CARE OF FRUIT-TREES.
Thousands.of fruit-trees are set on t.every
year, not half of which ever oorneiinte fruit,
just for want of proper care of thein Let
us glance'for a moment at some of the things
a fruit-tree needs after it •is transplanted.
We take for granted that this latter work
has been properly done- . —•a g00d,,, - generous
space dug for its home, its fibrhus' roots, all
adjusted straight and without interfering
one with another;,the soil- filled in :4,mting
them so as to leave no vacancies, lib manure
applied to them, as is sometimes foolishly
done—the ground then _mulched, if in the
spring,
with leaves, refuSe hay, or any cover
ing to keep it moist, and so far so good.
But yon must now have an eye to, the tree
every now and then, to see how it is pros
pering. Be sure to ascertain whether it
stands firmly in the ground, or rocks on its
roots. This can be easily known by swaying
it a little to and fro with the hand. A large
tree will be:aierelikely to rock than a small
one, as its top is generally larger in propor
tion than its roots. Now as a tree draws
most of its nutriment from the ground
through its rootlets, these must not be dis
turbed, or broken, as they will be by this
rockino• b motion. To remedy this evil, place
some heavy rocks around the tree at its
trunk, or - tie it firmly' there to the head of a
stake diven into the ground slanting from
the tree. The tree now has a chance to be
come established on its roots, and will start
into vigorous growth, if the other requisite
conditions are complied with.
The ground about it must be kept free of
weeds, which the mulch will do as far .as it
extends, but besides this, the soil needs fre
quent stirring, especially. in dry weather.
This opens the pores to. the dews and the
atmospheric influences, and in some way or
other keeps the tree in health and vigor.
But as a general rule it is of little service to
keep watering a tree, even in the dryest
weather, though there may he good results
from applying to it a liquid manure !by
means of small holes made in the grounil
Indeed the great want of a fruit tree is
food and nourishment, to make it grow and
flourish, and manure in some form or other .
it mast have, or it will languish and die.
Stable or barn-yard manure, especially if it
has been composted, may always be safely
applied to fruit-trees, after they have been
transplanted any time. Apply it too on the
surface, early in the spring, and let the rains
wash itinto theground: Other fertilizerS may
be used with success—ground bones, oyster
shells, and-the hair and spent lime from,tan
yards. Salt is an . excellent :fertilizer for
fruit-trees, but great caution is needful not
to give an overdose. A few years since, be
ing in the garden of the late Dr. Wayland,
in Providence, I noticed that his pear trees
were in a very vigorous condition, and on
inquiring of him as to the cause of it, he at
tributed it to the weekly supply of fish-offal
which he gave them during the growing
season. Where one can obtain this, he' i may
be sure of seeing good effects from its appli
cation.. Last spring I obtained from a fish
ing town two or three tons of cod-fish heads
and buried them about my fruit trees—both
apple and pear—and shall look for good re
sults in the crop of fruit this season. The
article fish-guano, made on Cape Cod, I be
.lieve, would answer a similar purpose. At
'all events, feed your trees, feed liberally,
and you will harvest liberally.
As to insects injurious to fruit-trees, of
course you must keep up a sharp, persistent
fight with them, and if possible exterminate
them. Some say it costs too much. Very
well ; if you. think .so, withdraw from the
contest, and you will have no fruit.: But
those who love good fruit, who would not
know how to get along in summer without
it, cannot afford at any price to intermit
this warfare. It is only - the diligent hand
that maketh rich in fruits, as well as in any.
thing and every thing besides.—Kolon in the
Watchman and Reflector.

Moffat's Life Pills and Phcenix Bitters
The wonderful effects of Moffat's Life Pills in cases of mental de
preesion of physical weakness, proceeding front indigestion, costive
ness, or bilious secretions, are certified by millions of persons who

and purifier ever before the public, and have been in use ever since
1825: They are cheap, safe and reliable. Sold by all respectable
dealers everywhere.
A plain statement of facts. • I inherited Scrofula, end many of
my re:atlons have died of it. In 1839 toy case wax frightful. Tu
mors and ulcers spread until in 1842, under the advice of my physi
cians I went to Avon Springs. I received no benefit—tried every
medicine and did every thing I could. I bad to rest my arm on a
cushion, and had not been able to raise it to my. head for over a
year. The discharge from two ulcers ,was nearly a pint a day.
Amputation was recommended; but pronounced dangerous. I
could not sleep, and my sufferings were intolerable. A friend
brought me an English physician who applied a salve, with which
he said he bad accomplished extraordinary cures in the hospitals in
England. It commenced to relieve: I persisted in its use; it finally
effected a perfect and entire cure. It is now 1848. It is five years
since I had the appearance of a scrofulous sore, and my health has
been good ever since. I procured the recipe of this wonderful ar
ticle—this bless 7 ng of humanity—and have called' it " PAPE'S CLI
MAX Satre," and allow the public to use it or not as they choose,
This is a brief but candid statement, given more fully in my circu
