Buckley, in Jersey, says.* *1 will take this occasion to tell your hundred thousand readers that ap orchard of young trees must to% cultivated.* , A correspondent of the lowa Homestead dfsorides a pear tree which was grafted on tfefe hawthorn in 1807, and which is now bbotH fifty feet high, trunk nine feet nine hiebes in circumference. It bears fifty bushels of pears annually. A good cemept for gutters and leaky places may. it is said, be made of boiled paint skins, if while hot and thick a portion of sand and fine lime be stirred in. It bo used while hot, and wheu dry will be as iron, and as durable. A correspondent informs the American Btomologist that by burying a few slices of oaiomi in ant's nests, he has caused them to abandon tbeir quarters. The same pa» per learns from horticulturists that 2 or 3 tUble w spoonfnls of kerosene, used in the oitue way, will produce the same result. The experiment has been tried in the West, of heating hillsides by the nse of tile flues laid in the soil, as.for draining, and heated with fire heat. It is said to be successful, and artificially heated hillsides will dispense with manure beat and glass in the growing of early fruits and vegeta ble®. • A young lady of Montgomery, Alaba ma, who was caught smoking a cigar, give ms her reason Tor the act; ‘That it made it •uteil as though there was a man around*’ There is nothing purer than honesty; nothing sweeter than charity, nothing warmer than love, nothing brighter than ▼urtnre and nothing more steadfast than faith.

Maty yews ago, the writer of these lines ana an invalid physician, while visiting the liland of St. Croix for their health, experienced and witnessed many surprising and , • ~. k beneficial effects of the Rum there produced upon many of the invalids who. were (like ourselves) seeking health; and, upon inquiry and •iftVestigalSte', obtianed : a full Mstoiy of its medicinal virtues. He was delighted and surprised, and after his own recovery, which soon occurred, determined, if possible, to procure the sole right to manufacture and sell ft a the United States. ** ‘ ' The result of his labors was a glorious success for himself and. suffering humanity, for the celebrated PLANTATION BITTERS was thus made known to the world. PLAN TATIOt BITTERS being an article of leal merit, founded upon new principle*, gad relying wholly upon the vegetable world for Its medicinal effects, worked a rapid r*Wta . tion in the history of medicine, and became as a household word all ever the civilised world. The cabalistic S. T.—lß6o—Z. was a talisman of health, and the demand for the PLANTATION SITTERS soon hi exceeded the abilities of the proprietors to supply. Notwithstanding the large importation of St. Crrix Rttm, made expressly for the com pounding of these Bitters, the quantity was inadequate, It therefore became necessary that arrangements upon an extensive scale abroad should at-once be mads, and an agent waa dispatched to Si Thomas far that purpose. He was fortunate In securing and leasing several plantations on some of the largest and most productive estates on the bland. Houses, stills and presses wer«erected as if by magic, which utterly'" aston ished the natives.” The services of experienced men and natives of the island were pro rand, and-very soon the proprietors of the PLANTATION BITTERS were in a position to supply their laboratory with an the perfectly pure 8i Croix Rum needed in manufac turing the GREAT DfSPEPTIC TONIC AND IN7IG0BAT0&.
