The permenanoy of form iu trained tress hs dependent on the equal diffusion of alip. 2. Prune the strong branches short, but allow the weak ones to grow long. 3. Depress the strung parts of the tree, and elevate the week branches. 4. Suppress the useless bel ,,n the strong }arts as soou as possible, and as late as possible on the weak parts. 6. Nail up the strong parts very early and very close to the wall G. Delay nailing the week parts as long as possible. 7. Suppress • number of the leaves on the stzoag side, and suppress all upon the week side. 8. Allow as large a quantity of fruit as possible on the strong side, and sol - press all open the week side. 9. Bring forward the weak aide from the wall, and keep the strong side close to it. 10. The cep deve lopes the branches much mese vigorously upon a branch cut short than one left long. 11. The awn the Yap is retarded in its eirNhtiea, the less wood and the mon trait bads will develop 19. Te retard the extensive growth, either daring the autumn, rent -prune, or remove the tees, or is the spring ex- pose the roots to the sun, and keep ma- sers and water from them; retarding the erseeenive vigor of the tree leads to its fruit -bearing. 13. Keep the fruit, as far as possible, vertical, and their stems lowermost. 14. Let the leaves lap over the fruit till nearly ripe, when the light as well as heat must l» allowed to bear ou the other side. MN -meds. Educational.

On an 000ssion when Colonel Barre brought forward a motion on the British navy. Lord North said to a friend of his sitting near him; "Now bewillgiveus our naval history from the beginning, not forgetting Sir Francis Drake and the Armada. All that is nothing to me; so let me sleep on, and wake me up when he comes near our own times." His friend at length roused him, when Lord North exclaimed: "Where arew.r' "At the battle of La Hogue, my Lord." "Oh, my dear friend," said North, "you have woke sags $ century too soon." Mr. Jesning. recalls O'Connell's com- ment en the ddense set up by a parlia- mentary reporter for misquoting the li- berator's epoch, viz: that the rain had streamed into his pockets and washed out his notes. "This," O'Connell remarked, " was the mos extraordinary shower of rain he had ever heard of, inasmuch as it not only washed out the speech he did make, but washed in another and an en- tirely different one." Familiar u O'Connell's sneer at the fewness of Lord Stanley's personal adherents after some general election: Thee wn thy hill.

Delicate tints in the foregoing varieties of Dolour are always agreeable and taste- ful, and so great care mmol be taken that they are not too vivid. The tints will always appear brighter than in the cal- cimine pot, and the workman, or work - woman, must keep this fact in mind when adding the coloring powder. his' agood idea to give thea ilinga cal- cimining two or three shades lighter than that on the walls, so it may appear mere- ly a delicate reflection of their deeper tones. The ceiling cm be calcimined with the lighter tint, and then more ooloring added for the walla. For other walk than hard finish an ex- cellent whitewash is made by slaking lime with boiling skim -milk and adding (for half a bushel of lime) three quarts of salt, half a poand of whiting, and a pound of white glue, previously di .olvd in water. This is hard and durable whitewash, does not easily rub off, and when tinted with any of the foregoing shades has about as good an effect as calcimine. A beginner in the art of calcimining is apt to bestow half the material on the floor, which is a needless waste. By taking a small quantity on the brush at a time all splashing is avoided, and after s little practice barely s drop will fall on the Astor. A bright day should be selected for the work. The wash must be of the proper comsistency-rich milk -or it cannot be applied evenly. The strokes should be straight and parallel with each other. After the fust coat is dry, and never be- fore, apply theseoond one acrossthefrst. An expert workman leaves no touch of the brush visible. When applying the first cost a round paint -brush should be used for thoroughly covering all corners and small spaces with the wash. In few weeks it will be time to make bot -beds for raising early vegetables and plants. The following, from the Rural Neto Yorker, gives information regarding them ii a very concise and practical way; -Horse manure is preferable to any other readily available substance. Fresh manure recently removed from the sta- ble is best. If a good portion of ins straw or forest leaves are used in the bedding it improves the manure greatly for hod purposes. When ready to begin operations the manure should be forked over, shaken out finely, and thrown into a high conical hes? to heat; if anyway. dry it should be watered until well damp- ed throughout the heap, leave it stand- ing in this heap abount a week and it will surely heat and begin smoking like a small volcano. Then are now two methods for form- ing the bed, some digging a pit and sink- ing the manure in it, and others simply building the manure up into a square bed and setting the frame un it. The first named method require* more labor, the second more manure; so we will let kbor vs. manure decide which will be adopted. After levelling the manure then should be throe or four narrow boards laid across it, on which to rest the hot -bed frame, so that after the manure heats all will be settled together evenly, otherwise the weight of the frame and .ash will foroe .it down into the manure, and the centre of the bed will appear to raise and perhaps displace plants. Of course, a spot for the bed should be selected which is sheltered as much as possible on the north and west by some building or high bearded fence. The sash should slope gently towards the south or east, both in order to carry off the rain water readily and to catch the sun's rays and gain light and warmth. The most common sashes are 3x6 fest. The frame should therefore be made six feet wide and as long as necessary to ac- commodate the number of sashes to be used. A vital point always to be ob- served in making a hot -bed is to spread the manure down while hot; it then con- tinues to heat; but if spread down cold it will heat vary slowly and unevenly, or perhaps not at all. Early in spring, when oonsiderahle cold weather may yet be expected it will be necessary to use about • common wrggom box full of meant* to each ash, but later in the swoon, when forsniag beds in which to teaasplaat seedlings, one-half tit quan- tity will 'suffice. The soil to be used should be prepared in advance. It must be light, loose and rich. Good sods 3. Subscribe for the paper. placed in a heap with alternate layers of 4. Pay for it in advance. 6.

Year memory is bad, periwigs, but I eau toil you two secrets that will cure the worst memory. Ose of them is to read • subject when interested; the other is net udy to read, but think. When you have read • paragraph or a page, stop, close the book, and tag to restos bar the ideas on the page, and only call them vaguely to mind, but put them in words and speak them out. Faithfully follow thir s•two roles, and you have the golden key of knowledge. Besides in- atteiltive reeding, there are other things injurious to the mrmory. One is the habit of skimming over newspapers, items of news, smart remarks, bite of information, political re8ereioas, lash ion notes, so that all is a confused jum- ble, never to be thought of again, thus d• tly cultivating a habit of carele reading ss to break.
