Similar dieters are reported from other parts of the Island, anions them bciuy the wreck of the schooners Mntaula aud Tamasese. The Zcalandia also brought the follow, inj? advices from Apia: Kverythinj? has been quiet at .Samoa dttriujc the past mouth, and alUwtuh tho declaration of a state of war on the islands by the Ger man still cxtsU, It scorns to have boc,nm3 a dead lotter.

The Stery or the Wreck of the Uarkrn. tine 'Ht trillion. Sax Fran'CWCO, March 17. The Chronicle publishes an account f the wrecking of the barkentine Constitution at Apia. She arrived at that port February 2, and was subsequently wrecked. On her arrival an attempt wa made to b )ard her by a party of Germaus from the corvette Olga. and her papers were demanded. The Lieutenant iu charge of the party informed her Captain that they intended to earch her for contraband of war, and that martial law had been proclaimed by Venuany. On the date of the occurrence the American man-of-war ?tipslj was abteht nt Tutuiils, and there was no American vessel at Apia. Captain Colly of the Constitution had only eight men on board. He Informed the Germans that his vessel was an Americau ship, and that he would icslst i ny attempt to board Ins vessel, declaring .bathe would shoot nny man putting his foot on her deck without his permission. The Germans, after some further parleying, withdrew. When the Constitution drifted on a reef la the harbor aud was wrecked, her crew was rescued" by the irew of the Jilpsic, wnlch was one mile , lway at the time. The crew of the Olira, I which vessel was lyins? near by, offered I no assistance. TROUBLE IN SIGHT. The Fulliire nf the .foist Con vrntlo eem l.1kty to ttreeil Trouble Iteiweeu Oiteru. tar ami .Miner'. Coi.umbuh, 0., March IS. Trouble between the operator aud miners seems inevitable since the failure of the joint convention to agree upon ascaleof prices at the meeting iu this city, and It is likely to start in Ohio bef re the lapse of many days. At Salineville there is already a difference as to the screens in use, anil n prominent officer of the National Progressive Union said Inst night that it was T;ore thau probable that a double strike would be inaugurated th'jre to maintain the prewtt scale of prices nud to force the operators to use the regulation screens, He was asked if a strike was Inaugurated In this State if it would not give the Indiana operators an immense advantage over those in Ohio in supplying the great markot of tho Northwest, and in this connection the officer made an Important statement. This matter had been considered, hy said, by the miners, nnd In order to prevent the result, tin decision had been arrived at In the event of a strike iu Ohio to withdraw all the union men from the mines of Indiana, end lessen the competitive powers of the operators by curtailing the output. The officers of the union generally antiuipati trouble during t: pttHmit uoason, but impress a willh'i si to d) nil possible to avoid a clash between operators and miners. m ' The lntinmter-OrnerHr Similar.

GRAFTING FRUH TREES.

The Th Mo I Simple and KD'eetive Met, oil ttf IIoIhk It, Many appear to think that grafting, or inoculation, a budding is often called, ha, like vaccination in the animal subject, iu nn mysterloua way the power to ho change the nature of the trexi that it will bear better fruit than before. V have graft ed fruit" and "natural friilt" often used as equivalent to good and poor fruit- 15 rafting is simply planting a cutting, hut Instead of planting It a we do most cuttings In the soil where, under favorable conditions, it will take root the cuttings are planted in tho body, or the wood of an old tree, and instead of forming roots, the graft unites with tho old, and "takeri" and becomes in all respects a part of tho "stock," as tho tree that Is grafted is called. There are several kinds of irraftin?, the mechanical operation varying, but all having the same end in view to convert or change a tree from an undesirable kind to a variety we prefer. The cuttings, or clons, or grafts, de mand s much euro in their selection as if they woro young trees to bo planted. They avo usually cut in autumn, after tho leaves have fallon, ami should bo of tho last summer's growth, new shoots at least a foot long. These should 1 cut from bearing trees, making stiro that theso aro of tho kind wo wish to convert Tho cions aro to bo tied or better secured with small copper wire, as string may decayinto bundles of convenient size, and accurately labeled. Tho bundles of clons are placed In boxes and carefully surrounded with sawdust or moss, and kept in a cool collar. They must be inspected occasionally, and if the packing material is becotn- : ing dry, give it a slight wetting. Some pack their eions in boxes of sand or sandy soil and bury thorn bolow tho reach of frost, and whero water will not settle. Some methods of grafting are qulto dlllieult, but tho two most in use aro very simple aud every boy can practice them. Tho cleft is the most simple and tho most common. The elon is cut with 31 sharp knife in tho form of a wedge. A branch of a stock ia cut otT with a proper saw, and with a .heavy knife, struck with a mailnt, a split or cleft is made. This ia kept open with a wooden wedge, and the clons. usually two in a large stock, aro carefully set. m that the inner bark of tho cut portion of the eion and that of the st'H'k will come in contact. Tho wooden wedge, being carefully romoved, tho spring of the stock will firmly hold tho clons. All tho bare places, on both stock and clon, are covered with grafting wax to protect them from rain and ah. Crown grafting differs in cutting tho clon upon ono side only, to form a half wedge. Tho bark of tho stock, it leing cut oil as before, may readily bo lifted with a wedge of iron or hard wood thrust between tho bark and wood, to allow the clon to slip in between thn two. Tho baro surfaces aro waxed as before. American Agriculturist FARM EXPERIMENTS. ,V (ioo.l Thing;, I'll. .Iilr.t It I Not ClHItlucted 011 Too Large a Scute. It is n good plan to experiment on a small scale, to try new methods of planting, initnurlner and cultivating; to test now varieties, and to uscortaln which for your farm is tho boat. Thero aro so many conditions under which tho farmer must work that plans that are best iu one locality will not bo best in another. Wo can go furthor than that and say that what ia best on tho farm one year will not he tho best another: so that tho bestsuecesj can only be attained by ascertaining the best that is adapted for your soil, nnd then being guided by the season In carrying it out. Hut, like much other work, experimenting can be carried to excess. Small oxperimentcs, conducted carefully, ho that tho results secured can bo considered tis reasonably accurate may bo made very beneficial. Hut It is easy to go to an extreme, and experiment on such a scale as to almost preclude the possibility of a profit The farmer who experiments on a large scale very rarely meet1 with suveoas. It is well enough to try on a small scale, and, if the results nro satisfactory, enlarge. Hut changing on a large scale, planting or sowing tho whole crop with new, untried varieties, or by an entirely new plan, or growing largely of a crop that heretofore has been left alone, aro almost certain to lead to failure, to a more or les.s extent Continual changing from one crop to another, from ono kind of stock to another, or changing tho plan of work each your. Is experimenting on too largo a scalo for profit. It Is well enough to change whoa it Is reasonably evident that tho ehntigo is for the best, and this fact can tiMunlly ho much better ascertained by making tho experiment upon a small scale first, nnd then branching ouUiH may aeom best. If the plan in not a success upon a small Scale, tho loss would bo a very small matter: but, if the crop is u failure, tho lon may bo quite serious at least HUMdent to make it an object to avoid. So, tho bettor plan in nearly nil cases Is to experiment upon a small Hcalo first, and then enlarge, rather than bo continually changing about, and thereby Increasing tho risk. PrHlrto Farmer.

A writer hi tho Congregationalist says that the word deacon has fallen into disrepute, because ho many reputable writers have made deacons the butts of ridicule and satire. The result of this is seen in tho reluctance of s-o many good men to accept this oiHce la tho New England churches. Tho Leeds Mercury is authority for tho statement that there are in England and Wales 1?.0 religious de nominations, with -17,000 places of 1 worship. There aro U8.O1M) ministers, 1 and the church and chapel otllclals ! number about 170,009. Communicants j number about .'1,000.003.
