It was glorious all the way to the bottom of the barrel. It came while we were fixing up our new type, and hence we did not acknowledge its receipt then ; but we have learned that it is never too late to return thanks for meat and bread, and our friend Irish will please accept our heart-felt and stomach-felt thanks for the timely favor. May his shadow never grow less and the Irish family alvrava 5nrrj! gf Scarcely had our better half come to the bottom of the barrel aforesaid, and the query was being discussed as to the mode of replenishing the 'staff of "life, .when along came another barrel from our friend Jambs Williams, who resides on one of the best farms on Fall Creek in the neighborhood of Tendleton.

Richmond Horticultural Association. March 12, 1864. The Association was called to order about 3 P. M., the President in the chair. The minutes of the previous meeting were read and adopted. The subject for discussion being the proper time and method of pruning fruit and ornamental trees, B. Stkatton opened the discussion by reading the followin tr paper on the growth of trees: In resuming this discussion, we very soon discovered the small amount of scientific knowledge, coupjed with practical experience, that we were able to adduce, which would either enlighten or instruct. However, be this as it may, we shall endeavor to give, together with a few general principles, some crude ideas of our experience. And the foundation or stand-point from which we propose to draw our conclusions is, viz: The winter pruning strengthens, while summer pruning weakens, and that daring the unfolding of the leaf and elongation of the branch, the trunk of the tree does not increase in size. With these principles for our base, it is easy to see that a great deal depends on the operator's judgement and skill in performing the work. A tree, vine or shrub, of very rampant growth, may be pruned duriug the summer months to an advantage, while one of weak and delicate habit should not be touched by a knife. Hence we hold that for general pruning of trees the third month is the best time. Were it not that experience has shown us the sooner a wound heal the better, we would recommend the fall. During the past year we took the circumferrenceof a small apple, pear and cherry tree at the commencement of each montli, frora trhichwe conclude we have gained some information as regard the season when a tree can lest stand the removal of its branches by pruning. I will here give, the results as regard's the apple, viz: The young tree girthed h inches on the 1st day of the 1st month; on the 1st day of 2d and 3d months, 5 inches, on the 1st of the 4th 51; on the 1st of the 4th and 5th, 5; on the 1st of the 7th, 5 on the 8th, G; on the 1st of the Oth, C; the balance of the year it remained stationary. Frora which we discover that the first indica

tions of the enlarging of the body was during the third month (an increase of one-eighth of an inch). This, however, we consider to be nothing more than the the filling up of the pores with the vital fluid or Bap, engendered or put in motion by the approach of Spring. During the 4th and 5th months no increase was manifest. The tree was using all its energies in extending its branches and perfecting its leaves, (which are its lungs) but when this was accomplished, and the leaves ready to perform their office in elabora ting the sap, yielding strength and sup port. We have an increase during the 6th month of three-fourths of an inch, and the 7th, one-fourth. From which we come to the conclusion that during the latter part of the Cth month is the best time to remove water-sprouts, and perform other light pruning, as the rapid growth of the body heals the wounds very soon. Nor are we less instructed when we recur back to the 4th and 5th months, and see the work designed by nature for that period. It looks to us that we might as well sever a portion of the roots as to go to cutting and removing any quantity of branches and growing leaves, especialiy in the fore-part of the 5th month. Who ever saw a perfect crop of ripe fruit without an abundance of healthy foliage? In looking over the whole ground, we are almost ready to say that the plu$ ultra of pruning will not lie reached till we discard the lopping of the branches and adopt disbudding. Let the tree be trained from the nursery by pinching and disbudding. The grape, we would say, prune at the fall of the leaf, and in case it is neglected, then in the 2d month. But beware of removing much of the foliage during the perfecting of the crop of fruit, nor do we believe that any theory, however nicely it may be writien and faithfully followed, will secure that success which will be likely to attend a practised hand and discriminating eye, having the plant before him to practically elucidate. Kaspberries, and blackberries, bearing wood should be removed as soon as the crop is gathered, thus allowing all the strength to go to the young canes, which may be cut back to about four feet in the 2d mouth following. Koses and other shrubbery should have their surplus wood removed after the first frost that cuts the leaves in the full, but we would prefer leaving the last touch of trimming till the 3d month. He stated that many trees were ranch injured by persons climbing into them to prune them, with their boots. Griffith Mssderiull spoke about the roots growing in the winter, but stated that he had not made any accurate measurements. He mentioned that he commenced pruning in June last year, and that there were many watersprouts on the trees, which were pruned in the early part of the month. The growth of "the cherry and pear is not exactly the same as that of the apple. B. Strattajc said if water-sprouts are allowed to grow where a limb is cut off, the wound will be a long time in healing over, and water-sprouts ought all to be cut off; but we cannot prune so as entirely to avoid water-sprouts, but they ought to be rubbed off frequently. Unless we had experience, we could not prune grape-vines properly, so as to have fruit over the vine. He tried for years before he could succeed in proportioning the wood. The conversation then turned on the injury done to different trees. Kirk Mkxdkshall said that the Bartlett Pear trees wore much more injured than the Buffum, though planted side by side and headed in. Irvis Rkkd thought that the trees were not quite so much injured as some people supposed. His quinces were not killed, nor apparently very much injured. The question for discussion at our next meeting is '-What are the best kinds of small fruits and vegetables to plant, and what is the best way of tending them?" J. Hill exhibited two samples of maple molasses; one boiled twelve, the other forty-eight hours the first as clear as honey, the second dark. They were both boiled in evaporators, proving that the quicker maple molasses is made the better it will be. Then adjourned, to meet Saturdav, March 26, 1S64, at Engine Hall ISo 3, at 2 P. M.

ANNOUNCEMENT. Legislsture. BEXJAM1X F. MORGAJT, having received near one thowsand and one hundred vote at the v'"-t;rr

election last year to fill the vacancy in the Legislator which occurred by the resignation of Oliver T. Jones, Esq., we, the undersigned, consider that the very large number of votes which be received affords sufficient encouragement, and is a reasonable inducement, to cause him to be a candidate for Representative, sub ject to the decision of the Union party on the first Mon day in April. We believe him to be loyal supporter of the State and National Administrations and thoroughly qualified as far as literary attainment and business qualifications are concerned. His interests being identified with "Old Wayne," w therefore reccommend him to the L'nion citisens, and request them to nominate him for a Bepresnetative to be elected from this County.

A large number of influential citisens have offered me their support, consequently I have become s candidate fr the Legislature. Before requesting the suffrages of those who are not personally acquainted with me; I consider it riht to explain to them my views, concerning the political questions which are and have been agitating our countrr. Every citizen should comprehend the vast importance of the elections this year. The policy of the present Administration should be endorsed, and the principles which have actuated our President and Governor, ought to be sustained and continued. It will take another term of four years to complete the emancipation schemes of President Lincoln, and it will be a National calamity if the self styled Democratic party should beat us in the political contests of this year. Men of the least amount of information, and common scna are aware of the fact, that this rebellion was originated and sustained, for the purpose of subserving the ink-rests of slave owners, and it followed as a natural consequence, that the best way of subduing them, was to doprive them of their favorite property or institution; which was the real foundation of all our troubles. The rallying cry of the copperheads has been "The Union as it was, the Constitution as it is." When they gay they want the Union as it was, it is manifest that their intentions are to restore the institution of Slavery with all its concomitant evils, and re-instate it in the States where it had an existence, when this administration came into power. Since they have considered the Dred Scott decision as binding as the Constitution itself, they would consequently permit Slavery to be' extended into all the free territories. And since the same decision gave slaveholders the privilege of sojourning an indefinite period of time with their slaves in the free states, of course slavery- would be practically established in the North, in opposition to our State constitutions. Furthermore, an Administration of such principles, in order to acquire the influence and support of the South, would vigorously enforce the Fugitive Slave Law, thus causing every free white man in the North, to become theoretically if not practically a patroller or slav catcher. Slavery re-established, the blood and treasure which this war has cost, will have been spent in vainifor a similar war to the present, would again occur in a very few years. It is evident to the most casual observer, that an innumerable variety of evils would befal this nation, if the party which has charge of the Government at the present timo, is defeated this year. The Democratic party had possession of the Government long enough to bring it to the verge of ruin. They have been weighed in the political ballance, and found wanting. Their trial and condemnation was awarded them in 1360. The verdict then rendered, must be confirmed in 1364, or the Nation will be ruined and the good which President Lincoln has accomplished, will be reversed by his successor. We want no more Copperhead Administrations. A broad foundation for a desolating war, was prepared during the official terms of Pi crce and Buchannan, who favored the slavery propagandists, and used official patronage against the- interests of the Union. They were tenfold more dangerous to the welfare of the nation, than if they had been open and avowed disunionists, for while professing fidelity to the great government over which they presided, they were permitting their agents to plot its destruction. We know how to deal with an open enemy, bat pretended, hypocritical, and traitorous friends, can injure as fatally before we are aware of their intentions. This came very near being the case while under the control of Pierce and Buchanan. During the administration of the first mentioned, a prompt movement of a portion of the regular army against the border ruffians of Missouri and the South, while they were attempting to force Slavery into Kansas, would have prevented the warfare in that territory. Likewise a prompt movement of troops by Buchanan into South Carolina, Georgia and Florida, might have quelled the present insurrection with less loss to the nation. For crimes which those two Presidents might have prevented, many poor ignorant rebels have suffered death, and their land in many places has unavoidably been made desolate, with fire and sword. The most deplorable result of their misrule, has been the loss of many thousands of lives of good union men, while attempting W enforce law and order among the rebels. The very fact that the so-call.-d Democrats in their profound ignorance, possessed so little judgement as to elect such men to the Presidency, shows that the party should not be trusted by the American people with the power and places of thi government. It then is the duty of all good union men to complete a party organization, composed of those who were formerly Republicans, and the present War Democrats. By so doing, the former Democratic office holders may be kept out ot power, and it is as mueh our duty to keep them in retirement, as it is to put down the rebellion. What will it avail us to conquer the insurrectionists, provided the election of ISfit results in the choice of ProSlavery Democrats? The Unionists must soon organise for the purpose of defeating the Butternuts thi year. Some may imagine that there is no danger of their succeeding, but we should remember that even that prince of traitors, Vallaodigham, received near two hundred thousand votes. The present Governor of New York, has been a Copperhead, and endeavored to delay the enforcement of the draft. What is the composition of the present Supreme Court of this State? AU Butternuts! As much may be said of all the state civil officers at Indianapolis, excepting our excellent Governor Morton, and his Secretary. In order to succeed, if the war is not ended in a few months, the Indiana soldiers should be permitted to come home to vote, and soldiers from other states, where their laws require them to vote in the township in which they reside, should be allowed the same privilege. The ballots of the soldiers would be as essential to the permanency of our Government, aa the bullet which they have been using with such terrible eSect upon the misguided rebels. If you nominate, and afterward elect aa to the Legislature, I am ia favor of measures being adopted to amend the Contitutxm of our state, so that soldier in the field shall be allowed the privilege of voting; for I think all who believe in Liberty and Equality, wul not deny a man hi right a a otiaen, when he enter the army. I am also in favor of a aw being passed "-t:"g it the imperative duty of the proper state officers, to pay the simi-annual interest on the state debt, without anj specific appropriations by the Legislature. Certain counties have advanced large sums of money to Governor Morton, to defray the expenses of the State government, and the several amount should be returned to them, ia order that the copperhead district of the Stat may bear their proporoooate amounts of the public expenditures. Behetrmg that Gov. Isortoa acta fro patriotic mo-

bra. T am in favor of supporting hiss ia various mea

sures for the sopprtsaiow of the rebellion, and in hi endeavor for preserving the financial crdatof IndianaWnite large number of aiyasar relative are ia the army fighting the rebels, I concluded I would make an attempt to goto lndiaaapoli, to fight, (in a parliamentary way) the butternuts of the legislature. Since there are a large number of candidates for representatives voter, ia each township eaa vote for their own or a neighboring candidate; and if tertain my political opinions, and think I am qualified, I also request you to rote for me, since there are three to be chosen from thi county.

fFrom the Richmond Whiz-l Tha Charleston Courier makes a timely suggestion ia recommending tha attention of our government to tha naturalization and culti ration of Calisaja, for th preservation of tha health of our soldiers. This article has a peculiar effect upon the lirer, and guard the system agslntt disease by exposure and irregular diet. It ia said that the great success of the Plantation Bitters of Dr. Drake, which, previous to our unhappy difficulties was found in most Southern homes, was owing to the extract of CalUaya

of Calisaya Bark which it contained as one of its principal ingredients. "In confirmation ol this, we have beard one of our most distinguished physicians remark, that whenever he felt unwell from ordinary dietetic or atmospheric causes, he invariably relieved himself by Plantation Bitters. Now that these Bitters cannot be obtained, a substitute should be prepared We understand our government has opened negotiations with Dr. Drake, through a secret agent, but with what truth we do not know.' We are exceedingly obliged to tho Eichmand Whig for its rcnembranca of 'Auld Lang Syne, but we can assure "Oar Government" that the Plantation Bitters are not for sale to any "secret agents," North or South. There is probably several other things that Our Government'' will yet want. We know that we have the best nd most popular medicine in the world. We are not afraid to show what it is composed of. Physicians are compelled to recommend it. Calisata Bark has been celebrated for over two hundred years, and was sold durir.g the reign of Louis XVI, King of France, for the enormous price of its own weight in silver. It is remarkable for Dyspepsia, Fevers, Consumption, &c. Cascarila Bark For Diarrhoea Colic, and diseases of the stomach and bowel3. Dandelion. For Infiamation of the Loins and Dropsical Affections. Chamomile Flowers. For enfeebled digestion. Lavender Flowers.-Arometic, stimulent and tonic highly invigoration in nervous debility Wititcrgreen. For Scrofula, Rheumatism,&c Anise. An arometic carminative; creating flesh, muscle and milk; much used by mothers nursing. Also, clove buds, orange, caraway, coriander, snake-root &c. S. T. 1S60 X. A nother wonderful ingredient, of Spanish origin, imparting beauty to the complexion and brilliancy to the mind, is yet unknown to the commerce of the world, and we withhold its name for the present. Humbugs and quacxs howl about the Ptanta tiou Bitters; but the following is what's the matter, and theyknow it: PIANTATION BITTERS WILL CURE Cold Extremities and Feverish Lips. Sour Stomach and Fetid Breath. Flatulency and Indigestion. Nervous Affections. Excessive Fatigue and Short Breath. Tain over the Eyes. Mental Despondency. Prostration, Great weakness. Shallow Complexion, Weak Bowels. LIVER COMPLAINT AND DYSPEPSIA. Very particularly recommended to Clergymen Merchants, Lawyers, and persons of sedentary habits. Also for delicate females and weak persons who require a gentle stimulent, free digestion, good appetite and clear mental faculties.
