Of cotirse the Keliel leailer aro not anx ious that the ilireful results of the mail l!e bellion into w hich a few of tin in have, hur ried the people, of eleven States hhotild lie seen at one glance. The reports of losses, therefore, we generally very unrelialile. Of the losses in many of the battles fought it is sniil that no reports have ever heeti given. They tire elelayed until the occurrence.- of other liat'leit causes the puhiie to lo.se sight of the intentional omission. The Knoxville llijjvrtn; however, states that "Claiik'n Diary of.tht! War for Sepuru tiun," has the following estimate of killed, wounded and missing from the commence ment of the war to t he first of .lanuary, 18(l! "Confcderates.-"Killed, 2O,S0;l ; vvouudeil (511,013; prione:rs, 22.1U9; total 112,(17?. I lied from disease and wounds, l:3U,000.'' This estimate Is one of their own making, and even this shows a very heavy :oss. Itut we have no confidence iu its aciuiacy. A few months .since wo gave to our readers an estimate founded on the tallies contained in the XaHnul Ahimnue. This table includes their losses from the commencement until the 27th of December, 1802. According to this authority, tlu-ir reported losses, exclu sive of those in the seven days' buttle before liichmond, those in the battles at Corinth, those in lieu hint battle nf Hull Pun anil in many smaller contests, aniotinteil to 20,100 killed, (i(),:las wounded, and -13,."i I J prison ers, total of loU.OOO. We think that we are making a very low estimate when we put the actual losses at 2,000 killed. 80,(100, woumled, itiid 50.000 prisoners, a total of 102.000. We believe that this coines short of the truth, though it presents an aggre gate of .10,01111 mote than the Kcbcl accounts' admit. If we add the deaths from disease and wounds lu the number of the killed, we shall have a total of l(i,000, or an aver age mortality of 8000 per month for the past twenty-one months of the Kebellion. If that has been continued up lo the present lime, as probably it has, we must add to the. sad list 43,000 more, making a total mortality of 210,0110. This, too, it must be remem bered, is only the number of actual deaths. It is proliable that a number nearly as hit be have been disabled by a wounds or disease. If this supposition be correet, then we have the total list of ilead 4111I distillled amount ing to 4:2.0itO. All this vast amount of death and Milfering is to be laid by their own people to the charge of .lelVerson Davis and his b How Kebels ami conspirators. Will they never call them to a fearful reckoning? This sacrifice has been made as the result of tlii-ir machinations ami for what I The rc-tilt of this calculation we wish lo push a little further. We showed, some two years since, that a levy tn iimmv; in the Kc bcl States, of all between the ages of eight teen and ti'ty, would only give a total of 1.10!l,t01. If. thcn,4:!2,OUO have been taken already from this total, we have a retnain iler of 0i 7,00.1. This represents the whole of the present available population between the ny,es ol' eighteen and lil'ty, from which the army and' navy can be recruited, even supposing the average rate of nWrVidity at home to have been no greater than in for mer years. The average rate, however, we presume, has been much greater, ami by no much is their available strength diminished. It will readily be seen thai their lighting material is wasting rapidly away, lleiiee the unsparing conscription. And hence the importance of now making with our forces a determined movement along the whole line; or, if we have not men enough iu the field of this, .lro necessity of putting them there at the earliest possible moment. l.ei-IiiOvo Vole ou !i-i-t-Niia in Vii-ini:i.

These are numerous in the suburbs of the capital of Japan, of wliieh the romantic town of Dang-o-Zaka is one. The most curious objects in one of these gardens were imit'tlion Ak.Vji, made! up out of the (lowers of the chrysanthemum. Thousands of flow ers are used for this purj'usvj, Kind as these artificial beauties smiled upon the visitors out of the little alcoves or slimmer houses, the effect was something rather startling. Mr. Fortune visited garden after garden, each of wliieh was crowded with plants, some cultivated ill pots, ami other in the open ground, ninny of which were entirely new to Ktirope, and of great interest aud value. A great number ot new shrubs and trees, mnny of them probably well suited to the Knglish climate, was here purchashed by out; traveler. In exploring the country and gardens about Su-mae-yah and Ogee, in tho same direction as Dang-o-Zaka, but somewhat farther from Yedo, Mr. Fortune found "park like scenery, trees and garden j, neatly clipped hedges succeeding each other, until he arrived nt the village of Su-mae-yah." The whole country here, he says, is covered with nursery gardens. "One straight ronel more than a mile in lciioth, is lined with them," tind he remarks he had never seen in any part of the world such a large number of plants cultivated tor sale. Kach nursery covers three or four acres of land, is nicely kept, and contains thousands of plants, both iu pots ami in the open ii'otind. As these nurseries are generally much alike in their features, a description of one will given good idea of the others. "On entering the gateway there is a pret ty little winding path leading up to the proprietor's house which is usually situated near the cetitie of the garden. On each side of this walk are planted specimens of the hardy ornamental trees and shrubs of the country, many of which nrc dwarfed or clipped into round table forms. The beau tiful little yew (In rv iiiujhiiIh.) occupies a prominent place among the dwarf shrubs. Then there are the different species of pines, thujas, retitiosporas. and the beautiful Srj, ,j,;t I, rtitinlntir, ail duly leprcsented. Plants cultivated iu pots are Usually kept near the hous of the nursery man, or enclos ed with a fence of bamboo work. These are cultivated and arranged much in the same way as we do such things at home. The Japanese gardener has not yet brought, guess houses to his aid for the protection and cul tivation ol tender plants. Instead of this, houses, sheils and rooms are tilled with shelves, into which all the tender things are huddled together for shelter during the cold months ol' w inter." Here Mr. Fortune found some South American plants, such a cacti, aloes. Ac, "which have found their way here, although as yet unknown in China ; a fact which shows the enterprise of the Japan ese in a favorable light" over that uf their neighbors. In Japan tind China, ehvarf plants are greatly esteemed ; and the art ot dwarfing has been brought to a high state of perfec tion. President Meylan. in 1820, saw a box which he describes as only one inch siptaie: by three inches high, in wliieh were actually growing ami thriving a bamboo, a fir, and a plum tree, the latter being in full blossom.

I I'l-miiii 1 rn it '1'i--vm. I Iii the hist , 'Prairie Farmer'' we find some excellent suggestions on the subject of prun ing fruit trees, by J. T. Elliott, of Grand Kapids, Michigan. They accord exactly with what we have said over und over again for many years in these columns. His com munication is dated May, and la-gins thus : "The season for trimming fruit trees is approaching," and then goes ou as fol lows : "We all remember the ohl apple ami pear trees, where 1 New England) we had to be 'boosted' to reach the lower branches; anil coming out here, we have imitated our fathers' follies, and fared worse than they. They pruned in February und March, ami we have known no better. Letting go any discussions of w hat their interests may be and looking at home all experience I hope will not be lost on us. "Prune w hile the wooil is growing if you wish the si'urs tu heal quick and sound. Say in June." "Hcgin your business while the tree is voting, ami don't be sparing ot jour knife. Take off all bearing branches thut will ever need it, and thus save the taking of thciu off when they get large. This being properly done w hen young, will save much labor and loss in after" years. We ure apt to leave on too iiianj limbs. "Limbs that grow close together, and parallel, and that cross, must have one of litem removed. The lormation of crotches must be uvoided, or else w e lose more or less of trees by splitting down w heu they get to bearing, if practical, establish a leading branch, and grow laterals at intervals. Some will need little, and other sorts much cut ting." Mr. Elliott ulso advises to grow heads low, with the lower branches not over two feel, if possible, from the ground. They stand tho high winds U-tter, are handsomer, and the fruit is more easily got ut. If the plow cannot approach the tree iu consequence of this system of growiug. so much the better, as a plow never ought to get near any fruit tree. All this is sound doctrine. Low branched tree also protect their trunks against the hot suu of summer, which some, times is verv injurious, as well as to a certain extent, against, th freezing ami thawing process ot winter. There is u marked dilVercuce belwei'n the amputated limbs of tree that have been op. ruled em respectively iu February and June or July.
