AkywidcW- fene*. ja jta youth, luxuriant and majestic in iu prime, renerable and picturesque in its old age, it constitutes, in its various forms, abea, and dcreJo; ementa, the greaett cbmnn aod beauty of the earth in all coun- tries. The most varied outline of surface, thai finest combination of picturesque ma- terials, would be comparatively tame and srjtriUens without the inimitable accompaj niment of foliage. Let those who have passed their whole time in a richly-wooded country—whoso daily provisions are deep, leafy glens, forest-clad hills, and plains lux- uriously shaded—transport themselves for a moment to a desert, where but a few stunted bushes raise their heads above the earth, or those wild steppes, where the eye wanders in vain for some \ leafy garniture' 1 —where the sun strikes down with paroli- ng heat, or the wind swoops over with un- broken fury—and they may, perhaps, esti- mate by contrast their beauty and value. the . ol Society, to'he heU at Wertfield en la# 10a» mmtlltk day* ef Wept. MM, 4 2 Beat Hotse Cart ^'•™^^°™^ ofisi westoeKr, John the Laws. A very common error, in ornamenting lawn grounds, is to dot over irregularly the whole surface of ground, so that when the trees ..eeome large there is a 'uniform' mass of confusion. Although straight lines are to be avoided, and the natural mode of planting adopted, yet there must be a nr aning in the position of every tree; the ground roust be left open or nearly unwant- ed in the direction of the finest object in view, whether they bo near or distant; and uninteresting or repulsive objects hid by dense evergreens. Where shelter is no ob- ject, and where little or no care can bo ta- ken to keep the ground in order, a very few large or park trees, with plenty of room bet veen them, will answer the pur- pose best. These may be oaks, black wal- nuts, elms, maples, catalj*?* chest u'lts, and tulip trees; also a few wh. a .pines, Nor- way furs, <kc. fhje.st.tar , absat the Grape. The famous grape vine at the Hampden Court, near London, is eighty seven years old, and extends over a space of two thous- and three hundred square feet; it is of the black Hamburg variety, and generally bears over two thousand bunches yearly. The parent vine from which this was clipped is still growing at Essex, it is ten years older, and its stem is twenty four inches in cir- cumference. During the last season, the editor of the Sacramento Tribune was pre- sented with a bunch of grapes weighing seven pounds. The amount of grapes of- fered for sale in the New York market has greatly increased of late years, and the wholesale prices, in the fall, have been three -to four cents per pound for ordinarv, fire to eight cents for medium, and nine to twelve cents for superior; but the \ Dr. Underbill grapes\ have wholesaled readi- ly tor fifteen cents per pound—a fact due to extra culture and high reputation, and, no doubt, corresponding heavy crops. Mr. Simpson, near Boston, is having great success in raising crops of grapes every 8 months from the samo vines. Watering Beese-Plaats. •^ Water is often very injudiciously applied to plants in rooms, and the evil arises from falling into the] opposite extreme! of too much or two little. Fear of spoiling the carpet, forgetfulness, and sometimes fear of injuring the plant, are tho chief causes of an under supply of water. On the other hand, many have a notion that such plants should be watered every day, or at stated periods, without inquiring whether it be necessary or not Saucer or pans aro of- ten placed under flower pots, to prevent the water which escapes from soiling the apart- ment; but in those cases the saucers should be partly filled with gravel, to prevent the roots from being soaked with water, or else tho water which lodges in the saucer, should be removed. The Sweet-Pea. Sweet-peas may be put in the ground early in the season, for they will bear the wind and weather. Make a circle round a pole or some other object to which they may cling as they rise, and put tho peas an inch deep, having soaked them previously in water well saturated with arsenic, to to guard them from depredations of birds and mice. Add an outer circle of peas every month, so that a continual bloom may appear. The circle first sown will ripest and pod for seed in the center, while the outer vines will continue flowering un- til tote in autumn. When a sufficient quan- tity of ripe pods has been gathered, the pods afterwards formed may ba cut away with a knife; this tends to strengthen the vines, and throws all their vigor into re- peated blossoms. &&\. A good farmer is easily known, for his fences and farming utensils aro al- ways in a good condition. HSSsWMJsHSJSjjnjsmm-*namSB- GROCERY! T his day opened an entire New Stock of Fami- ly 4Jr**!*ri*s.

In Cuts Wound Sprains and Bruises—casnlties to which children are constantlv subject—the ac- tion of the genuine PA1X EXTRACTOR is ever the same!
