This is a vorj simple process, ouo that jiuy tuuu or womau with coumioa sense etui : y perforin. When the bud bo- gius to swell and the sap begins to flow, thou h the time to graft. If you would introduce choice varietiei ou common stock-*, select the smallest limbs, and gaW them off about throe inches from the trunk. With a sharp knife pure tim bark smooth around tho edges, and with mallet and chisol split I ho stump in tho centro; have ready a scion you wish to insert. It should be out from last year's growth, with not more than three or four buds. Cut the baso from the lower bud, ja a wedgo shape, uud iusert iu tho split of tho stump, taking cure tho bark of the scion and stump fit close togothOr. A good grafting wax is mude by mixing and moiling together four purls of rosin, two parts of tallow undone part of bees wax ; work it well by hand until it becomes of the consistency of shoemaker’s wax; form a littlo ball of this around the wound. It keeps out tho sun, air and water. Tho wound will soon houl, tho nscouding sap will expand tho top bud, fl ud a frtiit-boiriag limb will bo produced in two or three seasons. A very good grafting oement may ho made by mixing equal pjrtious of clay and fresh cow dung. When applied to tho limb, bind around it u strip of cotton cloth, to koep it in place until it hardens. (■artlen Implement*. Nest to good seed, good implements oro essential to tho making a good gar- don. Mora vegetables are ruined by injudicious culture, than tho gardener is aware of Growing cabbages, beets, peas, «to., require deep culture. But how Ai ri wo givo it, without breaking the v - .< : win? Use tho Ilex liner prong hoe. Tn;.- is ono of tho finest imple ments for l:.) garden ever invented. It AJt is made of the very best stool, with seven prongs ; tho prongs or tints about twelve p, inohas long. Tho soil between tho rows "**■" of vegetables may bo kept open, and porous with this tool, without cutting tho roots. And if a piece of ground has been Cntt inetiino before planting, and has become baked, g > over it with tho _ prong lion, and it will bo in lino order to 1 roceivo tho reed. Next in iiuportauco to , tho good working of the soil, around and ^ dor the plants, is the Warren hoe. | a. This is u throe prong, cost stc-el blade, ns elastic as a trowel. It is, in fact, threo ; hoes in oue, will work the surface bo- | , tho rows. Tho small prongs may be turned right and loft between tho plants, cutting up and picking out tho cedi and grass as no other can do. It is tho best cotton choping hoo I have ovor tried, and should be iu tlio hands of every raior and girdeuor. Those implements ay bo found at most of tho hardware stores, and with all dealers iu gardening tools. Try them. i' I Democratic and Conservative Ticket. FOR MAYOR, W. J. SAMFORD. FUR ALDERMKX. THUS.

M. ORAT, EDITOR. Compromise. Whilst we admire pluck and persever ance, and admit that as a rule, it will win in ordinary affairs of life, yet thero are times when it is sheer folly,if not criminal, to indulge our game propensities; es pecially is this true when persistence may place at hazard other interests than otir own, tho public weal should bo para mount with every good citizon, and how ever much wo may dosire to carry out private ends, if in the effort to do so wo jepoardizo tho general interest, the pub lic judgment will not hold us innocent of a wrong iu magnitude proportionate to tho injury inflicted. We suppose the opposing Democratic candidates for the Mayoralty of this city will readily admit tho truth of our re marks above, and wo urge them as they value tho suocess of Opelika to come together on some common sense ground, and let us cease to divido our strength and present an unbroken front to an adroit euemy, who seek by placing in their load a quasi-Democrat personally unobjectionable to many of our oitizens in tho hope to givo a color of respecta bility to a party who huve controlled tho county and State elections of Alabama long enough to bring about loads of debt, which nothing but wholesale repudiation will roliove us of—at tho saiuo tirno foist ing upon the people a legion of incom petent ofiloe-holders from a Governor to a bailiff. If Alabama is to be redoomed and once inoro placed upon the proud pedestal from which she has been so rudely dragged, the white men of tho cities and counties must take tho load and again lift her* up to greatness. No municipal election is of little importance. Radical success to-day in Opelika may be the euteriug wedge for a triumph for that party in tho fall. Wo repeat it. No small matter should bo al lowed to disintegrate a parly whose suc cess last spring showed their power when united. Mut>*rribcr* At th»H place, as well elsewhere, would do well to rood the proprietor’s ultimatum in yesterday's paper, aud coiuo forward and settle. Tho Enquirer has been fur nished cheerfully under tho promise of payment, and if you desire to read a pa per you should not withhold tho small sums individually which you owe. From Monday wo shall commence and present the accounts of parties who may be duo tho office at this place, and hope to bo met promptly with tho money. To Ope lika this department has met a necessity which no other paper has filled, and we beliovo her citizens uud property holders are under some obligations to aid iu sus taining an enterprise which has redound ed to tho publio good. Not only should those iu arrears pay up, but others have not heretofore taken tho paper should do so ond urge their friends* to do likewise. Rmllcnl Pow wow. A friend who loves a good thiug visited . old out-bouso last night, and has been mining tho street to-day with tho sayings aud doings of “Pomp. Guffey,” and the brudders of divors colors. Tho object wo learn, to establish washer-wo mens rights, and introduce somo new fnu- glod drug to the sisters who wallow in iap and suds. .Hr. Hurrl*' Card. Wo call attention to the card below from Mr. J. II. Harris, doclining tho can- •y for tho Mayoralty. For this very iful act Mr. Harris deserves the thanks of tho oniiro people. Guano. Tho douiand for gimuo has almost asod. Much complaint is mado by dealers. Stock heavy. Tho gentlemen proposing to buy an ther Extinguisher, have been quite sue- essful in tho hunt for tho cash.
