Mr Radcliffe oar old friend who draws&

Well, sold taste generally keeps civil
servants or public annuitants quiet poli-

ehiettine of •*offenaive partisanship"
is to wait till the oppoeite side gets

far as the salary or annuity is cencerned.

Sta.-Many inquiries have been Wi-
ly made as to the best method of estab-
lishing smell plantatiooe of hardwood
on farms when the nature: supply of
timber ham run .bort. The beet reply
thet esa be elven to these ia that, to
imam *vapidity of growth, we meet pleat
enough young trees to shade the ground
to a ocosaderable extent, that is to say,
pleat young trees, say three or four feet
high sod shout four feet apart but esy.
This is .bout four times as many•trees as
will ultimately be needed, and.therefore,
it is well to plaint three fourths maples,
which are cheap, steerson trees of easy
growth, Med make every fourth tree a
tree of better sod more durable variety,
such as the ash, hieltory or cherry. As
the plantation gets too clue the maples
311/1 ha cut out, and will make a good
feel. leaving the more valuable tree..
"och will yet stand quite close enough
to answer the purpose. Of coarse my read-
ers understand that to grow emir timber
fit for manufacturing purposes, the tree
must grow, otherwise they will run ieto
branches. This is thiniode practised by
the hest United States planters. The
nowise will est shove the others, which
will do good, but do not let them ere too
far above. Yours, &c.,
