amount of rain water will remain near
the roots during the summer months,
about young fruit trees. This plaa will
entail more labor than mulching, and
the results will not be as certain. When
young fruit trees are planted in grass, a
circle should be kept dug around the
body of the trees further than the roots
extend, and under no circumstances al
low the grass to encroach on this space.
If it does, in eight cases out of every
ten the trees will be stunted in growth,

judging it from tho experience and oh
servation of the writer, bix years ago
a neighbor planted a hundred fine two-year-old
Standards in a meadow. Tho
ground was in good heart, and the trees
set out with care. Since the time these
trees were set out, no pains have been
taken to keep the grass away from these
trees. Tho result is that now these
trees will not average as large in size
as they wero when taken from tho
nursery row ; or rather those that are
living, for during these six years a num
ber of trees have died. This is only ono
of a groat many instances that have
come under tho writer's notice of tho
foolishness of planting young pear trees
in grass, with any hopes that they will
make strong, healthy trees in a few
years. That there maybe exceptions to
this rule, there is no doubt ; but there
is no doubt in tho writer's mind but
what they are very rare exceptions.
Although being familiar with pear
growing for tho past 15 or 20 years, and
during that time have visited many of
the leading pear orchards, tho writer has
never been able to find 00 trees in ono
lot whore the growth in grass would
equul tho same number of trees where
tho soil was kept cultivated.
What I have seen of pear growing in
grass has convinced me that grass cul
ture, for profit, just about equals dwarf
culture for the same object very dis
couraging to tho person who attempts
tho experiment.
With young or old pear trr-.-v, it is a
good plan in tho fall, when tlm wood is
ripe, and tho fruit gathered, to raise the
Boil around tho fruit trees. Beside cast
ing the water during the winter and
spring months, it is an excellent pre
ventive to keep field mic from girdling
tho trees. In the garden, this can easily
bo done with a spade or digging-fork.
In the orchard, for the purpose of rais
ing the soil toward the trees, use a one
horse plow, throwing the furrow slices
toward tho bodies of the rows of trees.
This I do lato in the full, before the
ground freezes up ; and when the ground
litis been turned in this way, I havo

worthy of her choice. All tho marriage
preliminaries were arranged, and the

down on his wedding-day, and a further
sum of $100,000 on his father-in-law's
death, an event which would probably
soon occur) had a little jealous squabble
with his intended at an evening party.
Tho " tiff " arose in consequeuce of his

The gentleman retorted, and spoke

Capt. Luke Pedder was twenty-seven years
of age, with an originally light complexion,
which had reddened with generous living and
bronzed with exposure to wind and sun. His
form was of the average size and height, and
his features of tlio most ordinary type. He
was singularly sellish and unscrupulous, but
of gcittlcmauly manners, being well educated
and used to good society. J lis ability as a
navigator was fair for a mail of his age uud ex
perience, but he owed his positiou ns com
mander of a fine Australian clipper, more to
respect for his late father and to sympathizing
favor than to his own merits.
Miss Ruth l'edder was two years younger
than tier urotucr, nnu consequently twenty-live
years of age, although she owned to only
twenty. She was tall, thin, and a little inclined
in her outlines, as in her temper, to angularity.
She was not particularly bright, but was bold
nnd unscrupulous, and possessed a tierce ener
gy which was capable of compensating in any
emergency for lack of genius.
. The father ol the couple had been a promi
nent ship-owner and merchant. But in Ills lat
ter days the seuior l'edder had been unfortun
ate, uud had dually been broken up completely
n result hastened, it was whispered, by tlte
wild ways nnd financial irregularities of his
son. The old man's failure had soon been fol
lowed by his death, and already for such is
fame ! he was generally forgotten.
" How odd it is !" ejaculated Capt. l'edder,
as ho rubbed his sister's cold hands. " She
mudly in lovo witli Will. llawley, and crazy
after Clara Aymar ! Aud now Will, and Clara
are married, and Hulh and I arc left out la the
cold."
Under the vigorous treatment he had adopt
ed Miss l'edder soon recovered her senses.
" Are you suro they're married 1" she de
manded. "Perfectly. I learned the fact half nn hour
sinco from Hawley's commander Captain
(ireggs, you know. Captain Urcggs was at tho
wedding. It took place hist Friday evening

" She's out for the day," answered Miss Ted
der, arising nnd planting herself In a chair.
" There was little to do, you know, ns I did
uoi expect, you uonic until dinner."
" Then no one will hear us."
He drew a chnlr nearer to that of his sister
nnd sat down beside her. ,

" My idea is to separate them ; to turn their
love to hate to dig a pit beneath their feet that

"Will, llawley is poor, isn't lief"
"Certainly; there is no mistnko nbout thnt.

Jt hasn't been six months since he was relieved
of that burden. He's poor, therefore, ns you

" Then he'll have to leave his darling Clnra,"
sneered Miss Pedder venomously. " He'll havo
to absent himself from his deary in order to
earn their mutual bread nnd butter. In short,
he'll have to go to sea ngain."
" Well, yes ; I supposo ho will," nssentcd
Pedder. " llo can get better wages nt sea
than elsewhere. . He'll sail ngaiii soon, no
doubt."

" llawley Is thoroughly competent to be your

Pedder looked wondcrinirlv nt his sister a

'Of course. I know of no better man for
the post."
" Ho must bo your first mate, thcu. You

hope, to turn out the present Incumbent ?"

" Without tho least doubt. It was under

" You must eonie back aud report that he Is

Those details and proofs will not be difficult to
manufacture. Then you must bo nil kinducss

suppose herself to be, nnd in less than a year
thereafter she will be your wife."
"Oh, if this thing were possible!" sighed
Pedder, beginning to look relieved.
Possible 1 It's as simple as kissing. And
the moment you are married to Clara, I will
bike a trip to Australia for my health, and nat
urally enough, stumble upon the very island
where you have left llawley ; effect his rescue ;
tell him his wife is dead; condole nnd svnina-
thizc with him like nn angel ; nnd conclude the
whole comedy by becoming his wife nnd set
tling in Australia. You'll thus have your Clara
on 'this side of the occnu, nnd I shall' be happy
with Hawley on the other."
She was smiling now, with every sign of an
ticipated triumph.
As to Pedder, he twisted nervously in his
chair, scarcely venturing to breathe.
"There's just one dillleulty," ho muttered
" that of getting Hawley on" the desert islaud
without his suspecting anything."
" It can be done," and the lips of Miss Ped
der came together like tho jaws of a vise.
" There's no dillleulty about finding a suitablo
Island !"
"Not the least. I saw tho Island In my
mind's cyo the moment you uttered the word,
and a glorious one it is for our purpose."
" It will be easy for you to get llawley upon
It," suggested M"iss Pedder thoughtfully. " If
it's near your route, you can call there for wa
ter. If it's out of your way, you can be blown
there by udverse winds, or bo drifted there by
unknown currents, or fetch up there by a mis
take in your reckoning or a fault in your chro
nometer. Ana once there, you can have llaw
ley seized by some trusty ngent, while he is
ashore upon business, or you can send him
ashore under some pretence, such as looking
for a deserter from the ship or for a ship
wrecked sailor, and then sail away without
him"
" Say no more," Interrupted Pedder, with
wild exultation. " I see how to manage tliu
nllidr from its beginning to its end."
" And you now see that we can undo that
hateful marriage t"
" Perfectly perfectly. Tho affair will re
quire a little time uud patience, of course, and
a little expenditure of money, but we are suro
to triumph. Capital! glorious ! What a loud
you havo taken from my soul, Ruth I What a
genius you nre !"
He leaped to his feet nnd began pacing to
and Iro rapidly, 'with the most extravagant
signs nnd exclamations of joy.
" First to get ILiwlcv on his Island," re
sumed Miss Pedder musingly. " Next for you
to marry the pretended widow. Then for mo
to rescue the prisoner nnd marry him. Aud
finally for you nnd mo to be happy, you in
your wny and I ill mine you with Clara in
New York, und I with Will, m Australia. You
comprehend the whole project clearly !"'
"From the first step to tho lust. There's
only just one possibility of failure "
"And that one"
" A refusal on Hawley's part to accept the
post offered him a refusal based upon his
marriage."
Miss Pedder turned pale ut the thought.
" But ho won't refuse," sho soon declared,
recovering her equanimity. " llo has loug

A OnBATSTKP TAKEN.
In the midst of tho Antarctic ocean, a little
ofl tlio route from New York to Australia,
there lies A largo Island named Kcrguelcn's
Land, or ns dipt. Cook called it tlio Islaud
of Desolation.
It was discovered Just one hundred years ago,
(In 177a,) by the French naval officer whose
name It bears. It was uninhabited then, nnd
is to-day as deserted as ever.
Tlio "smallest school-boy among our readers
can find it upon his map of tlio world, nbout
midway between the south end of Africa nnd
Australia, well up toward the South Pole.
It is a hundred miles in length by fifty in
breadth, nnd Is consequently thrco or four
times ns large ns Rhode Island.
' Its coasts nrc so wild nnd dangerous that Its
discoverer, during tlio two expeditions that ho
made to it, did not onco bring his ships to
anchor In any of its bays nnd harbors.
lis shape Is very Irregular, but something
like that of an hour-glass, It being nearly ciit
in t wo by a couple of large bays ; but theso
two divisions nre unequal in size, tlio northern
peninsula being much larger than the southern.
Itn coast line is widely broken nnd jagged,
its Innumerable gulfs being long and narrow,
nnd its promontories are correspondingly sharp
and slender, reaching out into the oceau like
fingers.
Tlio body of the Island Indeed resembles that
of somo huge monster of the antediluvian
world, even as its capes and headlands re
sembles such a monster's unsightly limbs and
claws.
A more terrific solitude than this Isle of
Desolation does not exist upon our wretched
ptanct.
Neither the snows of Himalaya nor the sands
oi canara can outvie its terrors.
No inhabitant Is there, not even a snvnge
no house, no tree, no shrub, no fence nor rond,
no field nor garden, no horse, no dog not
even a snake or a wolf.
Lone, blasted and barren, It looks like tho
skeleton ot n land that lias perished.
It may indeed bo that Desolation is tho relic
the surviving fragment of a continent thnt
went down here countless aires niro. with hosts
of inhabitants, iu some vast convulsion of na
ture.
It has certainly undergono dreadful visita
tions ; been rent by earthquakes, pulverized by
lrosts, insiicd and wasted bv fierce tempests,
Its mountains nrc only of moderate height
nut nre capped eternally wim snow.
Its vegetation is limited to n few dwarfish
plants, including somo mosses, a species of
iieiicn, n course grass, a plant resembling
small cabbage, and a sort of cress.
Its winds nre raw and piercing'. Its summers
cold and frosty, its winters those ot the Polar
Circles.
Tho interior of the island is occupied by im
mense boggy swamps, where the ground sinks
ui every siep.
The ruins iu Desolation are almost incessant
in their season, and tlio island is acrordingly
veined witli numerous torrents of fresh water,
some of which have worn out of tho solid rock
tremendous cavities and gullies. Tlio only
otner season man tlint ol the nuns 13 one ot til
most constant snow.
The logs of that ghastly region nre well
worthy of the rains, being of a cloud-like den
sity, mid hovering almost continually over the
wnoie lace oi tne island.
The sun of Desolation is usually hidden by
canopy oi leau-coiorcd clouds, and appears,
on the rare occasions when it is visible, scarce
ly brighter than the moon iu other latitudes.
As to the moon itself, aud the stars, the clouds
and logs rarely permit them to betray their
existence.
No fish worthy of note, not even fishes of
prey, abound In the adjacent waters, by reason,
perhaps, of their containing poisonous minerals!
or dendly exhalations from the volcanic tires
beneath them.
Yet the dark grim sea inclosing Desolation
bus done something to repair the sterility of
mc lsuinu.
- renguins, uucks, culls, cormorants an
other marine birds arc plentiful iu some of its
harbors.
Seals also abound.
Strange nnd terrible land!
Not a single human being, so far as is known
has ever lived there, save ns is now to be
corded m theso pages.
Near the middle of 'a dull, dismal afternoon,
somo eleven weeks later than the date of the
proceeding events, the good ship Flying Child
ers drew near to the island of Desolation, shap
ing her course toward its northernmost bay,
called by Captain Cook Christmas Harbor.
A fair breeze was blowing from tho north,
aud the ship was carrying every stitch of her
canvass, including studding-sails.
Her crew both watches wero busy about
tho deck, and her passengers a score fn num
ber had gathered in groups, mostly forward,
and were gazing with great interest upon tho
wild, rugged shores before them, so far as the
fog suspended upon those shores permitted
them to becomo visible.
The ship had come hero for water, nearly all
her water casks having been stove or started
during a squall ten days previously, and every
soul aboard of her having been since that date
upon short allowance.
Upon the quarter-deck stood Capt. Luke
Pedder, looking unusually happy, witli Will.
Hawley beside him.
" I mean to get our water aboard before
dark, Captain Pedder, and so avoid losing a
night here," said the young executive, totally
unconscious of the plot to leave him alone on
tho desolate island, nnd ol the extraordinary
ndventurcs which were before him. The strange
events that happened there, and indeed tho
whole of this thrilling story, will tic found
only in the New York Ledger, which is now
rendy and for sale at all thu book-stores and
news-depots. Ask for the number dated Julv
18, nnd iu it you will get the continuation of
tho story from the place where it leaves off
here.

afford a better variety of goods of any

Editorial Opinions. Au advertise

eulogium on the merits of something
wuicn tho advertiser desires to sell.
for its statements. Sometimes, how
ever, highly important discoveries or in
ventions, announced to tho world through
ine Dtisiness aepartment ot tho press,
seem to demand a lew words of editorial
commendation. We have no hesitation
in saying that tho excellent medicine
introduced by Dr. Joseph Walker, of
California, under the name of V INEOAR
Bitters, belongs to this category, and
has a just claim to a favorable notice.
There can be no doubt as to its utility
as a tonic, stomachic and alterative.
We ate cognizant ot many instances in
which it has cured cases of chronic dys
pepsia supposed to be incurable, and
know that tho estimation in which it is
held as a remedy for bilious and nervous
disorders, intermittent and remittent
fevers, rheumatism and general debility,
is founded on experience and well de
served. The testimony of " a cloud of
witnesses" goes to show that it is emi
nently useful in a largo majority of the
disorders to which the human family
are subject. Tho fact that it contains
no alcohol commends it to the conndimco
of that large and increasinp; class of tho
community who insist that all spirituous
