In the Garden.
« * the following hints at this season
of the year, tnav not be entirely un
profitable to some of our readers :
lVrsnips and Oyster plants or Sal
sify should bo left in the ground, to
be taken out as thev tnny be wanted
when the ground will admit of it; and
if the frost should be severe and com
pel us to wait until february, they will
be the better for it, and be at hand
when vegetables are scarce. Celery
should be secured before the ground
is much frozen, for being nipped at
the top, it will not keep near so well.
Turnips should be buried directly in
tho ground where the soil is dry and
at a grade which will allow tho water
to mu off freely. A bunch of straw
as thick as the arm should from tho
outside communicate with the turnips,
to nllow the escape of confined air, as
well as answer as a ready means of
access to tho esculents. If beets are
packed in tigjit barrels, with elm
vinjjs, sawdust, or even short hay,
and buried in the ground, fifteen or
eighteen inches below the surface,
they will comeout in thespringas good
as ever. So will turnips and apples.
Asparagus beds should now be mow
ed off, if still standing, the tops left
to dry, and then burned on the beds
and the ashes scattered. "They must
then be heavily top-dressed with good
barnyard manure, to remain until
spring and then be forked in.
Straw berry beds, towards tho lat
ter part of this month, must be serv
ed in the same way, though loose
horse-stable manure is to be prefer
red, and not too thickly applied, and
to be very lightly raked off in the
spring. Generally it settles or is
beaten pretty well down by the win
ter Btorms, and much of it ought to
remain, to act as mulching to the
plants and protect the berries from
the dirt when ripening.
Raspberries of all kinds that are
not perfe'tly hardy should be pruned
and laid down in the ground, and cov
ered with just enough soil to prevent
the exposure of the canes by the
washing of the rains, in the form of a
double-pitch roof, each row forming a
continuous little inound. In no way
will the raspberry bo so certuin of
protection aga nst the coldest weath
er, and coine out in the spring in so
fine a condition. All except the na
tive varieties should be thus served,
and it will increase the productive
capacities of even them.
Tho Catawissa, where two crops
are desired,should by all means be laid
down. When only one (the late) crop
is desired, the wood should be remov
ed close to the ground the latter part
of this month, and slightly covered
with manure.— Ger. Tel.
Winter Care of Cattle,
How many farmers there are who.
towards the close of winter, complain
of being short of fodder anil are com
pelled to purchase hay at high prices
to carry their stock until pasture
time. I know from experience what
this is and find it docs not pay.
There are two causes and also two
remedies for this state of things, viz :
Too heavy a stock and too wasteful
feeding. For the former the remedy
is obvious ; for tire latter, a great
many farmers have not yet discover
ed a preventive; but goon in the jld
way of fccdiug in common square
racks in the yard, either comfodder,
straw or hay. Hera is where the
loss occurs, and did every farmer
know the great gain there wou'd be
in cutting up everything he feeds, in
stead of feeding it whole, there wonld
be 110 more complaints of ''short fod
der." I have tried it and find that
I can winter ten head of cattle, on cut
fodder now, where I only wintered
fwc head last year, and what is more,
keep them in better order ! I use a
fodder-cutter, (worked by hand or
horse as tho case may be,) and fe?d
in the yard in troughs six feet long,
eighteen inches deep and two feet
wide at the top, s oping to one foot at the
bottom. My cuttle eut it upclean— hard
but*, stocks and fill', and ono ordinary bun
dle of fodddcr—such as would bo gener
ally given to a steer at one meal—lasts an
animal a whole day
Another advantage is, my manure is
all short, easily hnudled in the spring
when I heave it up uoder the sheds, and
I am not bothered by the long cornstalks
all through it. Cattle preter their fod
der cut, and will oat it'more quietly.
The same saving may be accomplished
in the stable, by cutting the hay fed to
the horses, cows, &c. They soon
learn to like it better than long hay,
and then they can waste none.
Let every farmer who has not
tried it, and who has been worried
to know how to get his cattle through
the -winter rightly without buying hay,
try this plan, and if he does it right,
he will never regret the outlay for the
cutter. My saving of fodder in one
winter will I think pay for my cutter.
Cannot some of the rest of our
farmers, who have tried it, give us
their experience for the benefit of ths
hundreds who have not ?
—"Shall ladies have votes ?" ask
ed a stump speaker. "Certainly,"
replied a strong-minded woman in
the audience. "Is woman made on
ly to sew on buttons ? And if she is,
it is against the law of nature to turn
away the needle from the poll."
—lt is a long political life that has
DO turning.
—The Devil is in a rage.
Thanksgiving Day in Pennsylvania.
The following is Governor Clbtin's
proclamation, setting apart a day for
thanksgiving:
J'enntylvanw, Is- S. —ln tho name and
by the authority of tho Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, Andrew G. Curtin, Gov
ernor of the said Commonwealth.
PROCLAMATION.
With feelings of the most profound
gratitude to Almighty Gcd, I ievite the
good people of the Commonwealth to
meet in tlirir places of public worship, ou
Thursday, the 7th day of December
next, and raise their hearts and voices in
praise and thanksgiving to hiin, not only
l'or the manifold ordinary blessings which
during the past year He has continued to
heap upon us, for abundant and fathered
harvests, fur thriving industry, for gener
al health, for domestic good order and
government, but also most expre-sly and
fervently for His unequalled gooduess in
having so strengthened and guidod our
people during the last four years that
they have been enabled to crush to earth
the"late wicked rebellion and to cxterin
inalc the system of human slavery which
caused it.
As we wrestled in prayer with Him iu
the dark time of our trouble —when our
brothers and sons were staking life and
limb for us on many a bloody field, or
suffering by torture and famine in the
Hells of Auder°onville or tho Libby—so
now when our supplications have been
so marvellously and graciously answered,
let us rfbt withhold from Hiiu the hotn
aKOot'our thanksgiving, l/ct us say to
all. "Choose ye this day »hom ye will
serve, but as for us and our house we will
serve tho Lord."
Come then ye people whom He hath
so hfclped and led—come ye war-worn and
mutilated meu whom Ho hath spared to
return to your dc:n homes —let us throng
the gates of llis temples—let us throw
ourselves on the knees of our heaits with
awful joy at the foot of His throne, aud
render aloud our praise aud thanksgiving
to Him, because He hath made the Right
to prevail—because lie hath given us the
victory—bfcause he hath cleansed our
land from the stain of slavery—and be
cause He hath graciously shown forth in
the eyes of all men the great truth that
no Government is so strong .as a Repub
lie, controlled, under his guidance, by an
educated, moral and religious people.
Given under my hand aud the great seal
—> ol the State at Harrisburg, this 7th
L. s. day of November, iu tho year of our
—' Lord one thousand eight hundred
and sixty live, and of the Commonwealth
tho ninetieth.
By the Governor ELI SLIKER,
Secretary of the Commonwealth.

—The Southern papers complain
that the negroes refuse to work be
cause they believe tho government
intends giving every one of them a
farm, and material to stock it with,
out of the property of their late
masters. During the rebeHion the
Southern press repeatedly declared
that such would be the result of the
success of the Union arras, and the
negroes have merely taken them at
their word. They should 4MS gratified
at fishing that their word is taken by
the "niggers" if by no one else.
