Wherever the ground is likely to be
frozen at any time during the winter,
strawberries will do very much better,
producing larger fruit and more of it.
in case the beds are well protected b\
a mulch from now until the 1st o:
April. Even where there is no frost,
but harsh, strong winds that blow oh
the fine earth (rum around thesurfaee
roots of the plants, it will pay well to
cover the beds with some kind ot lit
ter.
It is not necessary that the plants
should be covered very heavy'; enough
is wanted to cover the foliage tin-
width of the row or bed. When tin-
ground becomes frozen under this
mulch,is likely to remuinso all winter,it
preventing, a* the mulching effectually
does, the surface, which often proves
so fatal to the surface roots ol straw
berry plants when no mulch is user)
and the ground is frozen to a de| tli ot
six or eight inches early in the winter.
Tneii follows a spell of warm, mild
weather in^ mid-winter or toward
spring, and thaws a couple of inches
ot the surface; the expansion of these
two inches will often break off a third
of the roots of straw berries, and many
of the plants will be heaved out, or so
nearly so that they are worthless for
bearing, and might as well be hoed out
altogether, for the leaves will turn a
dark brown about the middle of May ;
and it such “stools” produce any fruit
it will be small and inferior in quali
ty- . .
This is more likely to occur where
berries are grow'n on heavy clay soil,
especially if the ground becomes fro
zen while the surface is wet.
When the beds are carefully mulch
ed there is seldom any injury from
“heaving.” and the foliage is general
ly found, when the mulch is taken of!
in the t-pring, to be fresh, and the
blossom buds looking very much more
vigorous than if left exposed through
the cold weather.
Wheat or rye straw is better than
oat straw- for covering strawberries.—
Leaves gathered from the wooiis make
an excellent mulch, provided they can
be kept in place ; a strong wind will
often blow- them all about when they
become dry from exposure. This can
easily be prevented by scattering sonn-
earth on top of the leaves as soon as
they are put on the beds. A neighbor
protects his beds in this way.
The sooner the mulch is put on the
better, and there need be no danger
apprehended from the plants being in
jured when covered before very cold
weather sets in.
Before putting the mulch on heavy
groimd it is a good plan to draw some
loose earth up around the “stools” ot
plants. In the garden this can be
done with the hoe, and in field culture
a shallow- furrow thrown toward the
row of plants, and then leveled off
some with a hoe, will be found to an
swer a good purpose. In case a few
of the outside leaves are covered by
the loose soil it will in noway i jure
the vigor or fruitfulness of the plant
for next year’s bearing.
When mulching material cannot be
procured, this method of drawing the
loosed earth toward the rows of plants
late in the fall, will be found to pro
tect the plants from heaving toward
spring, in case the weather is unset
tled through the month of March.

PROPAGATING GEKANItTTlA.
I have made my response longer
than was perhaps necessary, from the
fact that it applies to nearly all kinds
of soft cuttings.— Correspondence Coun
try Gentleman..
A “Constant Header” of the Coun
try Gentlemen, December 15, asks in
formation of the editors as to how to
raise and cultivate geraniums, and as
you have left it to some of your read
ers, tor a reply, I hope to be able, in a
brief article, to impart such informa
tion to your correspondent as will en
able her (or him) to have abundant
success in their culture. The gera
nium is one of the easiest to propagate
among the flowering plants, either
from seed or cuttings, of which I have
any knwledge. But one "other family
of plants (Coleus) roots more readily.
This being true, it your cot respondent
will get a small, shallow box, say five
or six inches deep, and two feet • by
eighteen inches in size, and fill it with
rich, light garden earth and silted
sand, she will have all things ready for
the cuttings. Then, if you have no
green-house, any time during the
growing season—say in the months of
June, July, August, and the first ol
September—break off slips Irom any
plant, about three to six inches in
1-ngth, arid about the size of your lit
tle finger (or larger) arid make a hole
in the sand, and put in your cuttings
two or three inches deep, pressing the
8arid firmly about the base ol the cut
ting, and putting the cuttings a few
inches apart, until the box is lull ;—
then water Ireely every day or two un
til they root, keep ng them in the
shade. Scarcely a single cutting wi I
lail to root, and soon become a large
flowering plant.
A still better way is to “tongue”
the branches before severing them fot
cuttings. This is done as follows:—
Take a sharp knife, select the branch
you wish to sever, and make a sloping
cut halt way through it, about an inch
long, and to prevent its breaking off,
tie it with a yarn string in a sort of
swing. In two or three weeks this
cutting will callous at the cut point,
and then it may be severed entirely
and put out immediately, as belore
stated. Callousing is the first process
ot rooting, and the parent plant fur
nishes tlie cutting with nutriment un
til it undergoes this process, and the
result is that such cuttings root much
more readily and grow more vigorous
ly. Geraniums are exceedingly brittle
and should be handled like china or
etruscan vases, but they are. in my
opinion, among the most lovely and
satisfactory of all flowering plants.—
No special care is required for after
treatment, only I have found them do
better when grown where they can
have a little shade in the heat of the
day. For protection in winter, a pit
made either of brick or plank, four or
five feet deep, and about six by nine
leet in size, furnished wiih a glazed
sash or two, will keep them in fine
condition without any artificial heat.
Toe Coi fax Keg.—A correspon
dent of the Fort Wayne Sentinel is re
sponsible tor the following story : It
seems that one of the Southern carpet-
jaggers came across some delicious
Robinson county whiskey—some that
had been made during the w-ar, buried
durin ir the war, and accumulated dust
on the outside and a delicious crust on
the inside. A few- choice kegs con
stituted the whole lot. and it is not
surprising that an enterprising carpet
nagger should buy it all. When be
readied Washington he sent a keg to
the White House, with his compli
ments, and another to Mr. Colfax, his
card attached. The latter sent back
a note of declination in rather pointed
terms, but not the whisky. The en
terprising carpet-bagger replied in a
meek spirit, saying that lie had under
stood it to be excellent for rheuma
tism, but, if Mr. Culiax could make no
use of it lie might send it over to the
White House, where it seemed to
meet with proper appreciation.
A few days after, the enterprising
carpet bagger happened to be at the
White House, and thought he would
make some inquiry. He approached
Dent confidentially and said :
‘‘By the way, how did you folks en
joy that Robinson county whisky I
sent over ?”
“Beautiful!” said the classical door
keeper, as he smTicked his lips in re
collection of it.
“Well, Colfax sent you over another
keg, didn't he ?”
“Haven’t seen it.”
“Why, I sent him a keg, and he
seemed to get mad about it. So I
wrote him that he might send it over
to the General, who knew a good
thing when he tasted it. At the same
time, I mentioned that it was good
for rheumatism.”
“Ah, that accounts for it;” said
Dent, sadly, at the thought of losing
it, “I hear that they have all had the
rheumatism dreadfully over at the
V T ice-President’s for the last week or
so.”
ABSENT EKtl.1l DUTY.
How much actual loss the people
may have suffered lrom President
Grunt’s well-ktiovt n propensity to pre
fer his private amusements to the dis
charge ot his official duty we need not
trouble ourselves to inquire* If he
has a constitutional inability to un
derstand the functions of civil admin
istrations ; it lie mars the affairs of
state when he tries to give them his
peisonal direct or) ; if he believes the
whole duty of a President to be the
manipulation of the patronage in the
interest of his own re-election, the di
rect damage of his absence from Wash
ington may not be appreciable in dol
lars, and from one point of view it
may seem cheaper to have him amus
ing himself on revenue cutters or at
the gift cottage by the sea-shore than
making mischievous appointments and
scandalous removals at the seat of gov
ernment. But when he app ies for a
re-engagement we are bound to ask
whether he has honestly done his best
to perform his duty, and to make his
subordinates perform theirs. We
printed yesterday a shameful record of
neglect. The public can see in this cata
logue of j unketins.excursions hither and
thitheron the national vessels,with gay
parties of ladies and gentlemen, and
politicians, and other favorites who
are riot gentlemen, railway journeys
as the guect of Mr. James Fisk, Jr.,
and summer loungings at Long Branch
in the company of Mr. 'l orn Murphy,
just how- the President passes the
time which lie is expected to devote
to the business ol the lial ion ; and they
i an see also how- his example has affec
ted tiie heads of the various executive
departments. In fact, there is at all
times and in ali branches of the ad
ministration a habit ol frequently run
ning away ; while for six months of
the year the capital is practically de
serted.
The world does not stand still in
summer. Government must be car
ried on, anil if it cun be done by clerks
why should we have any President at
all ? The President of the United
States and the members of his Cabinet
are not entitled to the relaxations and
amusements which rich men allow
themselves in private life. When
they entered office they did not accept
a gilt from the nation, but they took
upon themselves a serious trust, arid
they made a virtual promise to fulfil
that trust at whatever sacrifice of per
sonal convenience. Hence, when
they leave the administration to “iun
itself” they are guilty of gross neg i-
gence ; when they are absent from du
ty, as they so frequently are under the
present regime, for weeks and months
at a time, they commit a breach ol
trust for which the people ou .ht to
hold them severely responsible.
But the truth is General Grant has
never looked upon the Presidency as
a trust. He has never conceived that
there are duties attached to the office ;
he has taken only the pay and the per
quisites. He came home from the
war crowned with laurels and hailed
by the acclamations of a grateful peo
ple, and though he had not enough
imagination to be spoiled by so much
applause, his narrow and somewhat
blunt intellect was soon affected by
the generosity of ins admirers. They
offered him houses, and purses, and
hull pups, and he look them all as
tributes that he had (airly earned ;—
and when they offered him the White
House and the title of President, he
took those, too, in tfie same way, just
as Wellington—we thank Mr. Conk-
ling tor the parallel—may have taken
his dukedom and the manor of Strath-
fieldsaye. *o Grant has always re
garded the Presidency as a personal
gilt involving no gieat responsibility
exacting no more labor than it
rnents, with a second, term !< o ning >n
the distance to make the first one pay.
N. E. Tribune.
Very Funny.—Did you ever see a
woman throw a stone at a hen? It is
one of the most ludicrous scenes iu
every day life. We recently observ
ed the process. The predatory fowl
I a invaded the precincts of the flower
bed, and was industriously peeking and
scratching, for the nutritious seed or
early worm, blissfully unconscious of
impending danger. The lady now
appears upon the scene with a broom.
This she drops and picks up a rocky
iragmeut of the Silurian age, and then
makes her first mistake—they all do
it—of seizing the projectile with the
wrong hand. Then with malice afon-
tliought, she makes the further fituii-
her of swingii g her arm perpi-udicu-
lirly instead of horizontally—thereuj-
on the stone files into the air, describ
ing an irregular elliptical curve, and
strikes the surface of the earth as far
from the hen as the throw-er stood at
the time, in a course due west from the
same, the hen then bearing by tfie
compass north-nortii east bv half east.
At the second attempt the stone nar
rowly missed the h ad of the thrower
herself, who seeing that any further
attempt of the kind would be suicidal,
did what she might have done at first,
started after the lien with an old and
familiar weapon. The moral of which
is: Stick to the broomstick.
Consternation Among the Radicals-
Politicians were agog here yester
day over tlie startling reports which
came swarmins from every quarter
that a heavy exodus from the Grant
party is abouF to be made. Bank’s
letter created a consternation which
it is difficult to express in mere words,
and it is positively known that other
prominent leaders in New- England
and elsewhere are prepirir.g to follow
him. Reports from Illinois have been
received showing indisputably a luke
warmness in the Radical ranks that
bodes the party no good. Logan
is not keeping step to his recent
speech in the Senate; his eloquence
is not heard enough from the stump
to create pleasant reflections in the
administration ranks; and while the
inteiest in the North Carolina elec
tion was as intense as could be, it
was felt that the events of the past two
days could have no influence what
ever .upon the Old North State.—
Washington Patriot.
The Louisiana journals are filled
with complaints of the appearance of
the caterpillar in that State, and fears
are expressed that the cotton fields
will be laid bare by the first of Sep
tember.
Ayer’s Sarsaparilla,
fOB Pl'BIFlTXG THE BLOOD.
The reputation this ex
cellent medicine enjoys.
Is derived from its cures,
many of which are truly
marvellous. Inveterate
cases of Scrofulous dis
ease, where the system
seemed saturated with
corruption, have been
purified and cured by it.
Scrofulous affections and
disorders .which were ag-
avated by the scrofu
lous contamination until
they were painfully afflicting, have been radically
cured in such great numbers in almost every sec
tion of the country, Uiat Uie public scarcely need to
be informed of its virtues or uses.
Scrofulous poison is one of the most destructive
enemies of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt
tenant of the organism undermines : he con.-titutioif,
and invites the attack of enfeeblingor fatal diseases,
without exciting a suspicion of its presence. Again,
it seems to breed infection throughout the body, ana
then, on some favorable occasion, rapidly develop
into one or other of its hideous forms, either on the
surface or among the vitals. In Uie latter, tuber-
cles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs or
heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it snows
its presence by eruptions on the skin, or foul ulcer
ations on some part of the body. Hence the occa
sional use of a bottle of this Sarsaparilla is ad
visable, even when no active symptoms of disease
appear. Persons afflicted with the following com
plaints generally find immediate relief, and, at
length, cure, by Uie use of this SARSAPARIL
LA: St. Anthony’* fire, Rote or Frysipelas,
Tetter, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ringworm,
Sore Eye*, Sore Ear*, and other eruptions or
..... - _ . . . jJ, - -
visible forms of Srrofulou* disease. Also in the
more concealed forms, as Dyspepsia, Dropsy,
Heart Disease, lit*. Epilepsy, Neuralgia,
and the various Uleerou* affections of the muscu
lar and nervous systems.
Syphili* or Venereal and Mercurial Hiteatet
are cured by it, though a long time is required for
subduing these obstinate maladies bv any medicine.
But long continued use of this medicine will cure
the complaint. Leucorrhora or White*, Uterine
lacerations, and Female Disease*, are com
monly soon relieved and ultimately cured by its
purifying and invigorating effect. Minute Direc-
tions’for each case are found in our Almanac, sup
plied g-atis. Rheumatism and Gout, when
caused by accumulations of extraneous matters
In the blood, yield quickly to it, as also Liver
Complaints, Torpidity, Congestion or In flam-
motion of the Lieer, and Jaundice, when arising,
as they often do, from the rankling poisons in the
blood. This SARSAPARILLA is a great re
storer for the strength and vigor of the system.
Those who are Languid and listless. Despon
dent, Sleepless, and troubled with Ferrous Ap
prehensions or Fears, or any of the affections
symptomatic of Weakness, will find immediate
relief and convincing evidence of its restoraUre
power upon trial.

HAIR
^ Irenewer.
Every year increases the populari
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation ;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to its high standard;
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring Gray
or Faded Hair to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustfous, and silken.
The scalp, by its use, becomes white
and clean. It removes all eruptions
and dandruff, and, by its tonic prop
erties, prevents the hair from tailing
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
f rows thicker and stronger. In
aldness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. It is the most eco
nomical Hair Dressing ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, M.D.,
State Assayer of Massachusetts, says,
“The constituents are pure, and care

and I consider it the Best Prepa
