Agricultural Department. Transplanting and Priming. We copy the following from the Catalogue of the Tennessee Nursery, of Gaines & Ward, Proprietors, Phil ► mlelphin, Tenn. “We frill not attempt here to give full and particular directions on all matters connected with tree planting, ! hut will state a few of the mostessen tial points to be regarded. Ist. The soil tor fruit trees should be so dry, naturally or by means of drainage, that no water will be seen or remain either on the surface or about, the roots of the trees for twenty four hours during any season of the year. It should be well plowed before plant ing, and the deeper the better; and the fertility of the soil should be such as would insure a good corn crop. 2d. The trees should be carefully j examined, and all broken and bruised roots carefully pruned ; and with Ap ple, Standard Pear and Peach Trees, not over seven feet high, every side branch should be cut away within two buds of the stem, leaving the tree a straight stem. Also, part of the lead or should be cut off; the leader of the Peach, especially, should be cut back one-half of the previous year’s growth. The reasons for this arc the following. First, This prunning will reduce the top to correspond with the diminish ed capacity of the roots, so that they will lurnish a full supply of sap, and cause it to stand and grow vigorously. Second, It will stand more upright, and not be liable to be swayed about by the winds, and allows one to dis pense with a stake, which many re commend for holding the tree in an upright position, but which common ly injures if it does net destroy them. Third, The buds on the remaining snags and last year’s growth of the upright stem will form all needful branches, of better form and more vigorous growth than the entire branches would if left on. Dwarf Trees, and especially Dwarf Pear Trees, require thorough, but very diferent pruning, not only in the time of the planting, but in subsequent years, by beading iu or cutting back terminal branches, and cutting those most which are the most upright and vigorous, thus ' giving vigor and strength to those below, which are naturally inclined to be more slender and feeble. So important is this point with reference to Dwarf Pears, that it may be well regarded as indispensable to triumphant success, while the want of it will account for a large portion of the disappointment concerning the cul ture. 3d. Planting is easily performed, af ter the preparation above referred to, by digging the place large enough to admit all the roots in their natural position, and by filling in carefully with fine or well pulverized soil, so as to haye all the space under and about the roots entirely filled; be careful to plant not over one or two inches deep er than the tree originally grew, ex cept Dwarf Pears, which should be set just below the connection of the Quince ami Pear. The earth, alter having been gently pressed down while filling, should be filled up about the tree in the form of a large broad mound, which serves to keep them in an upright position until the roots commence growth, so as to make them self-sustaining. 4th. After which mulching will be found very beneficial to the tretx— This is done by covering the surface several inches thick around the tree with litter of almost any kind, such as coarse manure, weeds leaves or tan. The mulching should extend a foot or eighteen inches beyond the roots liv this means moisture will be retained in Jensons of the severest drought.— This should be done immediately af ter planting. Many trees that would otherwise perish can be saved, as well as make a much larger growth the first season particularly. sth. Cultivation will be found of great benefit to the growth of the tree; indeed, it is indispensable to promote vigorous growth. Young orchards should be cultivated for several years, and have vegetables grown therein, hut never grain or grass ; but when this cannot be done, extensive mulch ing should by all meansbe resorted to, so as to prevent the grain or grass from growing within say four feet (4 the tree. For the Times. To take off Wakts. —No mistake, or humbug, it will take them out by their roots, and leave the skin nice and smootlie. Remedy. —Take Sheep-sorrel and bruise it until the juice can be pressed put of it. Then place the juice in a plafe, in the sun until it turns to a wax. Directions for use.—Pare oil* the wart, until it bleeds freely, then take a piece of the wax, the size of a grain of corn and apply it to the wart Let it remain ten hours, then wash it off and apply fresh wax, let it remain the same length of time, and after this ap plication, in a short time the wart will come out by the roots. It is not. painful, but a mild and in fallible remedy to ‘fob the leathers out of warts.’ I have used it successfully in removing two from mv hand, and recomend the simple remedy to all \s ho wish warts removed. „ Hekkit. Carrollton, Ga. A Good Boy. A youngster attending school has written to his mother the following characteristic letter : Dear Mother—l got another lick, ing yesterday, but I had on three pair of pants, and it didn’t hurt me much. I was licked because I put six pin s in Mr. ’s chair. I knew they would jiot stick him, and made a bbt that they would not. Mr. was so mean and hard that the pins would not go in. I won the bet, which was a dog lie is a good dog, and lam training him to bite old. as we call him, some night when he comes home after dark, and if Zack is as good after him as he is after cats, I won’t get licked any more. Zaek and I killed the cats Sunday, though I was at Sunday-school and church all day, and is wasn’t a good day for cats either. That makes the third licking I got this week. One was because I had a bottle of milk in my room, and the other was because I wrote a composi tion on negroes, that old Ilardsides didn’t like. I said a negro was a dark subject to write on. It was like a dark African going down a dark cel lar a dark night without a light to look for a black cat that was not there. Old Ilardsides stopped me and licked, me for that. Send me some more of them pies. I made a good trade with some of them. If you will send me five dollars I will stop all my bad ha bits, except cursing and swearing and chewing and drinking and one or two others. You had better make the trade. Give my love to Julie, and tell her to send me that little fiddle I left in the old trunk. Your affectionate son, lfti.LlE. The Pole Cat.—My friend did you ever examine the fragrant pole kat elussly? I guess not; (hey are a kritter that won’t bear examining with a miero_ skope. They arebutiful beings, but oh how deceptive. Their habits are phew, but eni que. They bihl their houses out of earth and the houses have but one door tew them, and that is a front door. When they enter their houses they don’t shut the door after them. They are called pole kats bekause it iz not convenient tew kill them with a klub, but with a pole, and the lon ger the pole the more convenient. W liters on natral history, disagree about the right length ov the pole tew be used, but i would suggest that the pole be about 3C5 feet, especially if the wind is in favor ov the pole kat. I hav kaught skunks in a trap. They are easier tew git into a trap than tew git out ov it. In taking them out ova trap grate judgment must be had not tew shake them up; the more yu shake them up the more ambrosial they am. One poly kat in a township is enuff, espeshily if the wind changes once in awhile. A pole kat’s skin iz.wuth 2 dollars in market, after it is skinned but it iz u ntil 3 dollars and fifty cents to skin him. ‘ This iz one way to make 12 shil lings on a wet day. Josii Billings. ■ W hen you find a newspaper on a ballroom lloor it is not always proper to pick it up and wonder where it came from and ask unnecessary ques tions concerning the peculiarity of the fold. A young man did that not long since, ami he couldn’t get another girl to dance with him during the whole evening. Accidents will happen in such a bus tling throng of people as are general ly congregated upon a ballroom floor. The Sex ok Eggs.— Long, slim eggs are males; short, round eggs are fe males. A western man was presented by a young lady with a fine plaited bosom shirt, made with an open back, lie wore it hindside before for a year before he found out how it worked. — On being told of bis mistake, be re marked that he thought it strange that the young woman should put so much work on the back.

FIFTH YEAR. . ■■■* • A Representative and Champion of American Art Tlie Aldin© = An Illustrated Monthly Journal claimed to be the hansomest Papeer in theWortd. m “Give my love lo the artist workmen of thk at. dink who are striving to make their profesion worthy of admiration for beauty, as it has always been for usefulness.” — Henry 1 third Beccher- The Aldine, while issued with all the reg ularity, has nofte of the temporary or timely interest characteristic of ordinary periodic als* It is an elegant miscellany of pure, light, and graceful literature, and a collection of pictures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in black and white. Although each succeeding number affords a fresh pleasure to its "friends, the real value and beauty of The Aldine will be most appreciated after it has been bound up at the close of the year.— While other public publications may claim superior cheapness as compared with rivalsof a similar class, The Aldine is a unique and original conception—alone an<k unapproach ed —absolutely without competition in price or character. The possessor of the volume just completed cannot duplicate the quantity of fine paper and engravings in any other shape or number of volumes for ten times its cost. The labor of getting The Aldine ready on the press is so gieat that repri ting is out of the question* With the exception of a small number specially reserved for binding, the e dition of 1871, is already exhausted, and it is now a scarce as well as valuable book. NEW FEATURES FOR 1872. ART DEPARTMENT. The enthusiastic support so readily accord ed to their enterprise, wherever it has been introduced, has convinced the publishers of The Aldine of the soundness of their theory that the American public would recognize and heartily support any sincere effort to ele vate the tone and standard of illustrated pub lications. That so many weakly wicked sheets cx'ist and thrive is not evidence that there is no market for anything better-indeed the suc cess of The Aldine from the start is direct proof of the contrary. With a population to vast, and of such varied taste, a publisher can choose his patrons, and liis paper is rath er indicative of his own than of the taste of the country. Asa guarantee of The excel lence of this department, the publishers would beg to announce during, the coming year specimens from the following artists: W T Riel arils, Granville Perkins, James Smiley, Win Har., F O C Harley, R E Piquet, Wm Beard, Victor Nelilig, Frank heard, George Smiley,Wtn II Wilcox, Paul Dixon, Aug. Will, James H Beard, J llowe, These pictures are being reproduced with out regard to expense by the very best en gravers in the country, and will bear the se verest critical comparison with the best for eign work, it being the determination of the publishers that The Aldine shall be a success ful vindication of American taste in compe tition with any existing publication in the wo: Id. LITERARY DEPARTMENT. Where so much is paid to illustration and get up of the work, too much dependence on appearances may very naturally be feared To anticepate such misgivings, it is only nee essary to state that tlie editorial management of The Aldine has been intrusted to MV. RICHARD HENRY STODDARD, who has received assurances of assistance from a host of the most popular writers and poets of the country. TIIE VOLUME FOR 1572 will contain nearly 300 pages and about 250 fine engravings.
