It should have a medium vosition as regards exposure and the in- inences of the season’ it requires, far- thermore, a soil with good natural | drainage. Where winters are uniform | in temperature and cold spring frosts | io not prevail, the main difficulties to | guard against are the high winds from | the west and north that injure the hlossoms and blow off the fruit before it is mature. In such sections of the country the situation shoula be chosen for the orchards where some natural obstacle, as a hill or belt of woods, wiil hreak the force of destructive winds, or, if this is not possible, a belt or border of rapidly-growing trees | should be planted simultaneously with | the setting out of the orchards. In| other sections where late spring frosts prevail a high location with northern exposure is best; an eastern and south- orn exposure and low grounds are to be avoided. A cold locality acts as a partial preventive against destruction by late spring frosts, because it keeps the fruit buds back. There is in most | sections of country experience enough | to be found among the neighboring cultivators to guide beginners in de- eiding the important matter of sites for orchards, and no one should venture to set out a permanent ovchard with- out availing himselt of this experience, As regards soils, bear in mind that peaty or mucky and damp, cold and spongy ones are wholly unfit fer fruit orchards of any kind. Apples and pears Nt riie thrive best on a dry, deep, sub- soil, between a sandy and a clayey loam, and possessing among its inorganic parts a considerable portion of ime. It is the belief of many farm- ers that apples grown on clayey soils possess better keeping qualities than those grown on light soils. The most enduring peach orchards are found on dry, sandy loams. «Peach trees grown on loose, light sands, with the occa. sional dressings of good compost, fruit well bug do not live long. Generally speaking the plum delights in a rather stiff clayey loam, thoukh some sorts, as the Mir lle, succeed well on light soils. The cherry thrives best on a light, dry. warm soil. . In orchards where apples, vears, peaches, plums, ¢ planted promiscuously, what is ly termed a sandy loam with a thsoil is best. On such a hardy fruits will thrive, itions being favorable. Un- reumstances the soil of an orciard must possess for most suocess- ful results the inorganie substances, such as lime and potash, and a goodly proportion of vegetable moid. As it is imperative that the soil be i in good tiith, the ground des- un orchard is best plowed they yas season, and again before the trees are set, The season of planting. in reality. may extend any time after the fall of the leaf by frost in autumn, until its reappearance in the spring, provided the ground is not frozen. Spring and fall are, however, the usual seasons, spring being generally conceded to be the best time for setting out the stone fruits.

Peach trees are preferable at one year old only from the bud and should he set at a distance of say fifteen feet. Standard cherries may be transplanted at one year from the bud and should not be over two years. About twelve feet apart is the distance usually ob- d for this fruit Plum trees for ard stendards should be about two ars old from the graft, with stems ay three feet high; they are usually DiAnt same distance as peaches. Quinces are advised to be at least two | years old, and they may be three from the layer or bud; set them twelve feet apart. As trees invariably lose some of their | roots when taken up from the nursery, it is necessary to cut back the branches at the tine of planting, that a proper balance shall exist between the stem and the roots of the tree. The roots t also to be relieved of all bruised The ground having been previ- ously prepared by plowing or trenching, holes should be dug deep and wide enough to admit the roots, which when Iv spread out in natural positions may be filled in with fine earth gently trodden down with the foot, more AL filled in, more tramping down of earth and so on until the exeavation is filled. lien the trees are large and in expesed ns it is well to fasten them with y stake or two, otherwise this precan- tion is unnecessary.

Upon the adventof the present king that officer became convinced that wisdom demanded his withdrawal. The entire population of Burmah is not more than 3,500,000; the whole extent 400 in width. The king, who alone decides upon peace or war, and who dispenses at pleasure imprisonment, torture, death, resides in a jfalace, the surrovnding which are double, the in- ner walls inclosing seventy-five acres of ground, Within this space are found the royal pagodas, temples, barracks, mint, law courts, monasteries, miiiary store-house, and finally the magnificent Hall of Audience, builtof dark wood in- tricately carved and gay ly ornamented.

His revenue is 85,000,000; but this sum proving too trifling for his orgies, he has lateiy created lotteries, to which his subjects were forced to subscribe.

The Hon- the 4 fe the Boston Adverfiser says: Robert C. Winthrop in centennial oration orahle to the sudience there gathered the writ- ing desk upon which the declaration of independence was written, and the thoughts suggested by this interesting historical relic formed one of the most | eloquent passages of his oration. He concluded his allusion to this desk with these words: “ Long may it find its appropriate and appreciating ownership in the succes. sive generations of a family of whom i the biood of Virginia and Massachsetts is so suspiciously commingled. Should it. in the lapse of years, ever pass from the hands of those to whom it will be $0 precious an heirloom, it could only Lave i s fit and final place among the choicest and most cherished treasures of the nation, with the above title deeds | of independence it so proudly asserted.” This evening the Honorable Robert C. Winthrop, who is now in Washing- ton, took the ocoasion of a eall at the executive mansion to deliver personsily to the President, as a gift to the United States, this litle mahogany desk on which Mr. Jefferson wrote the deciar. tion of independence. It was presented in the name of the children of the late Joseph Coolidge, of Boston, to whom it was given by Jeflerson himself in 1825, wiose granddaughter Mr. Cool- giaph inscription as follows: * Thomas Jefferson gives this writing-desk to his affection. It was made from a drawing of his own. by Ben. Randall, gabinet-maker, of Philadelphia, with whom he first lodged on his arrival in thst city in May, 1776, and the identi- eal one on which he wrote the declars- tion of independence, Politics as well as religion has its superstitions; these gaining strength with time, may one day give imaginary value to this relic for its association with the birth of the great charter of our independence.” It | 18 probable that this desk will be de- posited in the fire proof library of the State department, Where is kept the orizinal draft of the declaration, written {on this desk A People Who Live Near the Pole. The Roman correspondent of the Phil. adelphin Bulletin, speaking of the Cin- kici, a remarkable people discovered by the Swedish explorers of the north pole region, says: The people found there were not precisely savages—they were clothed (roughly, perhaps)—but | they | deer or seal perhaps suit Parisian taste, but it was adaptable to their clime.

The bar- rel was quickly utilized, and the body rolled upon it till the water was pretty well pumped from the stomach.
