Planting Fruit Trees,
The propagation and cultivation of
fruit trees is a most pleasant am) agree
able occupation for tlie sons and
daughters of farmers : those who have
been educated in industrious habits,
and those into whose - minds- sound
moral principles have been instilled,
ariijnwixrdly fond of it. \\ e arc all
foncl of fi-e apples, pears, peaches,
plums, quinces, and cherries,, and
therefore all should be willing to lend
a helping hand in their production.
But never from ideas of economy,
plant inferior trees ;' the same care,
time and room are required for poor
trees as for the finest specimens. The
difference in expense is but small,
and will be much more than made up
by the first crop of fruit.
The roots of trees being designed
not only to sustain them in proper
position, but to furnish them with
nutriment, eare should be taken in
planting to loosen theearth for a eon-;
siderable distance around them. Those '
who try how small a hole will accom
modate the roots or a tree, miss their j
aim, for experiment lia-s demonstra-1
ted that a tree planted in a hole three '
feet in diameter will .grow more in
five years than one planted in a small
hole in ten. 1 don't wish to be un
derstood by this to limit the size of
the whole to three feet for there is no !
limit the larger the better.
Trees are often planted too deep;
'.his is one of the greatest disadvan-'
tages where the soil is cold or moist.
I consider it a safe rule about or a
little less than the depth at which
the tree grows when at the mirstirv
Some give as on excuse for not,
planting trees, that they will never
live,to sell the fruit! suppose those
who planted that orcliare on your
farm had thought the same, where
would your apples have been ? It is
to a farmer's interest, and even his
duty to plant trees, if ir t for his own
use, for the next generation.
Some excuse themselves on the
ground that they don't expect to re
main where they are much longer,
and are going to sell; but in what
way can an equal amount of capital
or labor be expended so as to increase
the value of a farm more than a well
stocked orchard.
It is an excellent plan to plant one
or two rows of trees every year; by
this plan you may secure the best of
any new varieties which may come
out, and also have a regular supply
of fruit.
After the best kind of trees have
been secured and planted, great care
should be taken to protect tliein from
being-injured by cattle ; they should
bo secured to stakes to keep them in
proper position. If any of the trees
appear to be weak, it is better to re
move them at once and supply tli "ir
places with sound ones. It is a great
mistake to think that by getting large
trees to plant, you wiil get fruit soon
er for it is seldom tho case.
It is almost usel ss to plant a young
orchard where there has been one be
fore. The trees will not attain their i
size but will be poor and stunted.
It would seem that the first set of
trees exhausted the proper food from
the soil, that it venture's several years
to regain it.
There seems to be a great diversi
ty of opinions as to whether orchards
should be cultivated or not.
As far as my experiece goes I think
too much cultivation is not best; the
trees require all the nourishment they
can get. The plan I would adopt
is something in this style :
Before planting the orchard, put
the land through a regular three years
rotation (corn, oats and wheat,) sow :
grass seed as usual with the wheat, i
but use ndne but clover, and not be
sparing with it. • In the fall after the
wheat is taken off, or next spring
plant your trees. During the sum
mer Wt your pigs run in the orchard
and eat off the clover, which by the
way is excellent food for them. Let
the pigs have possession of the or
chards until the clover begins to run
out, and the sod gets thick. Then
manure and'plant potatoes, follow
them with wheat and clover; in the i
spring turn calves or sheep on the ,
wheat and keep it down until winter, i
Let this course be pursued until the
trees commence bearing, when with
an occasional coat of manure and
lime the trees will take care of them
"elves.
It may seem to the practical far
mer that his land remains too long
without interest, but in the end it will
pay. No man can reasonably expect
to raise two good crops at the same
time from the same ground. If one
of them is good,it is at ex pens of j
the other. If a farmer obtains a'l
good erop of Wheat from his orchard,
he does so at tho expense of his ;
trees.
I only recommend a crop of pota-1
toes as tho means of preparing the j
soil for grass-seed- Both clover and j
potatoes contain a large amount of
nourishment from the air. Any one
who has scon a pig in a patch of clo
ver, will admit that it must dt him
good.
Be not in too much hurry to ob
tain a crop of fruit; patience will
meet with its reward. l>o not stim
ulate (by manure) the trees to bear
large crops at first, as they will ex
haust themselves one year and bear
none the next.
—A gentleman complaining of the iu
couie tax, says he cannot put on his boots
in the morning without a stamp.
From (ien. I.ee lliml.
WASHINGTON, October 5.
I have li.id a conversation to-day with
n very intelligen Rebel Sergeant-Major,
who. has been serving in Colonel Cols
ton's Brigade of lien era! Hcth's Division.
He left the Itebel lines on Wednesday
last, and says that although General Lee
and his captains have made everything
bond to their imperative wills to send ev
erything to the commissariat, yet great
difficulty is experienced in giving the
i troops enough food, even oftbc well-known
corn meal ration.
[ The supplies at Richmond have given
! out, and resortis had to the country south
and Fouthwe't. The crops have been
I seized everywhere as fast as gathered, and
| hurried to tlie army ilepots.
The people of Richmond and I'eters
j burg, such as were able, have luft those
' cities and gone south. Those remaining
are surrounded by sick and wounded sold
j iers, and suffer terribly for the want of
I the commonest necessities.
Lee has acknowledged his position as
! critical, not through any great genius ex
| hibited hydrant, but through thejudie-
I ious handling by the latter of his im
! mouse armies. Like a great general, Lre
lias not forgotten his line of retreat. Ife
j lias fortified Danville at all points very !
j recently, and has prepared a temporary 1
defense on the route thither, lie has |
taken a number of his heavy guns from
Richmond and Lynchburg to Danville, j
| and has mobolized hi.s army for the series '
: of desperate conflicts which lie antici-1
| pates in the vicinity of his present posi
| tion.
He has been made militarydictator, but
has signed a compact with the rebel au
j thorities to pursue, as far as possible, a 1
certain political military policy .suggest
ol by them. Mr. Davis and Cabinet have
left Richmond, and t.'ill propably settle
in Columbia. South Carolina, or Raleigh.
North Carolina. It is known that the
j ( iovei nincnt arc hives. ;nmi. ■•.niuiunition.
I \c., have been sent to Danville, which is
Lee's b:ise of supplies. All the news
papers except the Whig are movingsouth
j tVoui Richmond.
The rebels have more respect for Grant's
military ability, than the Copperheads of
j the North have. This rebel says that
j Gen. Grant's plans of operations will cer
, tainly succeed in the end—perhaps very
I soon. This has been the conviction of
the solid thinkers of the -outh eversince
Grant landed his army on the South bank
lof the James river. It is Southwest of
j that river that the greatest battle of mod
i em tune* must soon bo fought, and in all
j probability the decisive one of the
war.
Grant's plan is said to be as follows :
Sheridan will take Charlottesville and
i move toward Richmond lrom the west.
A large force is said to have taken Abitig
j don, an important town in Southwestern
| \ irginia. the depot of the vast salt mines
|of that region. This force is expected to
J move upon Lynchburg.
General Lee, with an adequate army,
in endeavoring to keep back all of these
columns; but herein is Grant's advan
tage,as, if Lee weakens his line by ta
king away a single division. Grant willat
once move on him and use him up. This
rebel teils us that it is thought Grant will
take both Richmond and Petersburg
without an assault in force, lie will soon
entirely outflank General Lee and force
him to retreat.
NEW YORK, Oct. fl.—The Herald'>
Tenth Army Corps correspondent says
the rebels are busily strengthening their

Tho T 'imr.i correspondent from the Ar

found a number of retiels just captured
to bo nearly all boys of eighteen years
and under, only one full grown m;:n among
ihem. They were glad of the capture as
j they had been conscripted. Gen. Lee
j on tho first, sent a flag of truce to ex
change prisoners captured in the last
movement, man l'or man, but Gen. Grant
refused to make the arrangement and re
ferred Lee to Gen. Butler, the duly ap
pointed Kxchange Commissioner.

of \\ est \ irginia that the raiders in that
portion of the State had robbed stores
and houses indiscriminately and carried
off $(50,000 worth of property iu one

THE NKW YOPK TRIBUNE, first Issued April 10, JR4I.
has to-day n Isrger aggregate circulation than any other
newspaper published in America, or (we belied) in tlie
world. Compelled a year since t<» increase ths price of ,
its several issues, or submit to the pecuniary ruin of its
proprietors from the very magnitude of its circulation, it
ha* probably since parted with some patrons to whom
ItCTemarkablecheapness was a controlling recommenda- 1
tfon; but othera Itave taken their place, and it has now [
more than Two Hundred Thousand subscriber* and regn
lar purchasers—an excels of at least Fifty Thousand over '
those of any rival. And this unprecedented currency it
hasachieved by very liberal expenditures in procuring
early and an then tie intelligence,' by the fearless expres
sion of convictions, by the free employment of ability and
industry wherever it might contribute to excellence in
any department of our enterprise, and by unshrinking
fidelity to the dictates of Justice, Humnhitv. and Free
dom.
B.V very large outlay* for early and authentic advices
by telegraph and otherwise from its own correspondents
with the various armies of the Tnlon, and by special ef
forts to furnish Midi information respecting Markets,
Crops, new discoveries or improvements in Agriculture,
Ac,, as must suerially Interest fai uiers.we have insidiously
labored to make a journal calculated lo meet the wants
and subserve the interests of the Producing Classes.—
Tint end we have at hli-t ineaotrably attained : for no
other newspaper exists in America or Europe which is
habitually lead by nearly so manv farmer* and their fam
ilies as is TM THITIJK to-day, Ws shall labor to
both the number and the satisfaction of this by far the
uiost numerous class of its patrons.
During )he existence of the Whig party, thl* paper
supported fliat party, though always fiympatliixing with
the more liberal, progr« «sive, Anti-Slavery •wing" there
of. \\ heri new issues dissolved or tfnnsformed old organi
zation* through the-pontaiieons uprising or the people
of the Free States against the repudiation of tlia Mi-sourl
Heat/let ion, The Tribune heartily participated in lliat
movement. and was known as Itopublican. When the
long smoldering conspiracy to divide and destroy our
country or reduce It entire to complete abasement to the
Slave Power culminated in overt treas n and rebellion,
it naturally, necessarily regarded resistance t. this c n
-piracy a- pahunount to all other considerations, and de
voted all Its energies and efforts to the maintenance of onr
I ni'»n. In every great controversy which bus divided
onr country, It has been found on that side which natu
rally command! the sympathy and support of the large
majority of school-houses mid the decided minority of
grog-shops, and so doubtless will be to to the last.
Ardently desiring and strivin for the early and endu- ;
ring adjustment of our National distractions,The Tribune j
leaves the time, the nature and the conditions of that ad
justment implicitly to those lawfully in authority, con
fiding in their wisdom and patriotism, anxious* to aid
I them to the utmost in their arduous responsibilities and
not t i embarrass them even by possibility. Mrmlv be- |
Moving in the A post lie rule—'"l'irst pure then peacea- j
Ide"—holding that the total and fin d extirpation of SI t- j
verj i- the true and only absolute cure for onr National .
ills—that any expedient that stops short of this can |
have but a transient and Illusory success—wo yet pro- :
pound no theory of "reconstruction*' ami indorse none
that h.i* been propinjuilad by another —neither Sum
ner s, nor Whiting's, r.or any ofthe various Copperhead
devices for achieving •'Peace" by surrounding the Re
public into the power of its traitorous f»e*—but, exhor
ting, the American People to have faith in their Govern-
I ment, to re-enforce their armies and replenish their trea*-
I ury. we believe that. If they but do their duly, a benign
Providence will indue time bring this fearful struggle to
I such a close as will li<*st subserve the true greatness of .
I our country and the permanent well-being of mankind.
