Saturday afternoon a woman who is known as "Maude Fisher," aud who is said to be an inmate of that "private boarding house," corner of Second and Walnut streets, called in at the notion store of D. B. Otis, near Sixth on Main.s ^While there she made some trifling purchases aud departed. She was not outside of the store long before it

ABOUT STRAV»*BR'RRIES.—On the first page of tbis issue of the Evening GAZETTE, our many readers will find a very excellent paper written by Capt. Potter, on the cultivation of the strawberry, which by the sparkling style in which it is written* and the valuable information it contain?, claims its perusal by all our readers. It is a subject which should claim more attention in this vicinity than has been the case in the past. If any mistakes are found in the same as published here, lay them at our door, as having read the proof, as the Captain did not see the propf of his manuscript.

Foote, Esq., the well-known seed man, who hold forth with a firstclass extra stock of the articles mentioned therein on West Main street. Read, reflect and call on Mr. Fopte before you send East for your seeds.

In submitting to j'ou an essay or paper, on the cultivation and uses of the strawberry, I must disclaim at the beginning, offering tp you only a very limited knowledge and practical experience of my own. In fact, so limited is my own information aud experience on the subject, that had it not been that I entertained the belief that your society permits and justifies "plagiarism" in this line, I should not have attempted complying with your request to write one. I am neither a botanist, meteorologist, or philosophical horticulturist. To write an essay full of light, life and vigor on plants, one should have some little knowledge of those sciences. Horticulture is an art, and it does not come now to man in a spontaneous way, as it did to Adam—and not altogether spontaneous to him, I opine, for although the fruits and vegetables were supplied to him in a great measure spontaneously, much was left for him to learn by close study and observation and practical industry.

The plant is propogated either from runners or from seed. The desire for new varieties has encouraged the practice of propogating by seed and Keen, Kneuett, Myatt, and others have beeu extremely successful. Mr. Knight having observed

its delicious perfume. According to Linnc'eus there are but two species, and more modern botanists are inclined to the same opinion. They are found in America and Europe. Morphologically the strawberry fruit is in reality what are g»Je commonly regarded as the seeds, the edible part being only an enlarged receptacle of the flower. Long cultivation has effected many chauges in the habit and form of foliage and fruit, and even some of these might occur naturally. A great many treatises have been written and published on th'e. cultivation and propogation of the strawberry. I have not beeu tarored with the reading of them. I know* not whiSffe such works are to be found, but reference is made to those of T. A. Knight, London Horticultural Trahsactions, Pardee and the French writer, M. Mosel de Vinde.

the young runners of the Alpine strawberrv flavor and ripen fruit the first year, was'led to adopt this mode of reproduction, and followed it with the happiest suwess.' Early in sprfnjg, he sowed the seed iniflower pots, which were put into a hot-bed, apd as soon as the plants attained a sufficient size, they were transplanted into the open ground. They began to blossom soou after midsummer, aud continued to produce fruit till interrupted by frost. Thus Mr. Knight is inclined to treat the Alpine strawbery as an annual plant. The same practice has been recommended by M. Mosel DeVinde in France, bujt he very properly preserves his plants for three, years, sowing every year a successional crop. Mr. Keen has applied this method of culture to the wood strawberry, and we doubt not that it might be extended with beneficial effects to the Old Scarlet and others of the less

feftificial

varieties. A clayey soil or strong

loam is considered as best suited to strawberry plants. On a sandy or very light soil they seldom succeed in England, and in very closte situations, and over rich ground, most varieties produce little else than leavef. You .all know this to

as the "Neptus" for the Wabash valley Nearly all other varieties are either discarded or neglected as being less profitable. It is true that the Wilson is a good bearer, and a very profitable fruit for exportation to other markets than our own. But is it not true, that for a sweet and delicious desert, it falls far below other varieties? If allowed to ripen before being picked, it would, perhaps, be much improved. Like the Law ton blackberry, it requires a longer exposure to the sun to ripen than others. In the condition it has been furnished to our tables the last two years it deserves better the name of a tart and inspired desert than a sweet and delicious one, like the true "fragans," requiring a pound of sugar to a pound of strawberries and causing the cream to curdle and sour when coming in contact with them. They came to us without the rich fragrance of the ripe «ind delicious strawberry, such as may be found in the Philadelphia and Pittsburg markets. I must say to the cultivators of the strawberry that there is need of reform and improvement in this line. For a sweet, highly flavored strawberry we need a different variety from the Wilson, one that ripens through more rapidly, earlier,

bearing properties. Burr's New Pine is said to be admirable on this account, having an exquisite flavor, is a good bearer, and continues to bear longer than many other varieties.

STUAWBElMlY CULTIVATION.

fruits to experiment upon, and may have succeeded.in raising finer strawberries than we do, but if he left no treatise on his mode tf cultivation we are left only to conjecture on the subject. How long he was permitted to live in his garden as a dresser and keeper of it we are not informed, but as we are told that he lived to the good old ag«r of 930 years, we may conclude, perhaps, that he remained there at least a hundred years, and 'became a good scientific horticulturist before he became an agriculturist. Gardening, one observes, was one of the first arts which succeeded to'thatof building houses. I should say that it preceded that of building houses, even when mankind dwelt in booths. During the existence of the Roman Empire, horticulture attained to considerable perfection, but declined with the decline of that Empire. On the revival of learning, it arose from the slumber of the dark ages. By the diffusion of longs to it in its Natural state. It is revved "1 hw ofg?tl princWes -thought less of as a preserve than the nT'„by a^ itegexnerimPente we raspberry or blackberry. But the lady and the A*®

requires more room, and to be cultivated in rows or hills. McAvoy's Extra Red is highly recommended by some horticulturists, aud is represented as large, handsome and a great bearer. Also as good for transportation on account of its solidity. It will perhaps be said, that all these have been tried without much success as to profit. But we have not tried all modes of cultivation. We have not thoroughly tested our different soils, nor thoroughly applied artificial skill and capital to this branch of horticultural art.

One great source of failure has been the want of sufficient irrigation. It is not safe to depend, ill our locality, on seasonable showers. We have no mountain or elevated streams, that we can divert, or turn into channels to irrigate and moisten our thirsty strawberry patches. Mauy of them are too large for the ordinary sprinkling-pot, or garden engine. But is it not practicable to adopt some mode of daily or every other day watering plats of-one or two acres? It has occurred to me that the plants might be so arranged in rows in a field, as that the common street sprinkler might be used to great advantage. A large tubular hogshead, mounted on a wagon could be driven astride of roads 3 to 4 feet wide, and watered effectually in a dry season, thereby insuring a goQd and profitable crop. Had I a field I would try it.

Emulation to excel in raising the best fruit and to command the best price, has not as yet been stimulated into exercise, as at the east, and as it has in regard to £he article of butter and cheese. Why not a strawberry raiser so establish his reputation for raising the best desert of this kind that his bemes will always bring 5 to 10 cents per gallon more than some others. Why should Mr. Price or Mr. Pegg, because his neighbor adopts the policy of furnishing a half ripened, sour aniinsipid berry, do the very same thing? Is it not true that horticulturists in this time aim to do about the same thing, both as to quality and variety? The strawberry is our first ripe fruit of the season the first to gladden our hearts in the early summer, and call forth thanksgiving to Him who planted the first gardeu and watered it with a river having four heads. What more delicious offering to a sick friend—or even if he is not sick—than a dish of the first and best ripe fruit of our own raising. What more fragrant token of love and esteem can we send to him who ministers to us in holy things? In ancient times God required this: "Aud whatsoever is first ripe iu the land which thfy shall bring unto the Lord, shall.be thiue." That is the Biert. The sanitary qualities of the strawberry are of a high order, and are so inoffensive that even the sick and the invalid are allowed to partake of them.

Many of the good housewives convert them into preserves by the use of sugar, but find it impossible, I-believe, to preserve the fine flavo-And relish that belongs to it in its cultural state. It

When it is found to be a good relish for breakfast, a goo'd .dessert after dinner, and theyvery best fruit for a tea that we have, can we not it a little more stimulus with water and a little more study and energy in the'raising of it? Can nothing be done to prolong the season of this our first ripe fruit, longer than from two to thr€e weeks? Can we not by cul-. tivatiug greater varieties, and various modes of-cultivatron, prolong or lengthen the season of this most delicious fruit, six tveeksor two months? The experiment is worth trying.

On our prairie we have no north-east or south-west slopes on which to plant the strawberry, thereby iusuring on the latter the earlier kind, aud on the former the later kind but adjacent to it, we have them in abundance. On ground thus situated, theseason mightbe lengthened three or four weeks. In clayey soil recourse should be had to trenching and underdraining. Manure must generally be given iu some way or other, if very large fruit is wanted. Nothing better than dishwater applied in March and April to the roots. Housekeepers have not yet learned the value of this, one of the best of liquid fertilizers, nor the advantage to health and clealinesa they would obtain by applying it to strawberry patches and other plants, instead of making of it pools of filth and stench in their back yards. In the planting out and construction of a strawberry bed, attention must be paid to the fact that the plant is designated as male and female. The distinction can be readily made when the plant is in flower, the blossoms of the female having an entirely green 6enter, whilst the opposite have a great many yellow stamens. It is a mistake to suppogp that good, sweet and delicious strawberries can be raised uuder the shade of trees. Clean straw or tau should be placed about the plants in

spring, or before the blooming

place. Well rotted leaf mold is good for fall mulching. After the bearing season, the runners not required to produce fresh plants, should be cut off or destroyed. One form of a strawberry bed is recommended by Pardee for private gardens. A ridge of earth, consisting of rich loam if possible, is formed

ning nearly from north to south along the center of the ridge a narrow channel is formed, into which water may be poured so as to percolate the sides. Along the sloping sides, bricks are placed like the steps of a stairway, and in the interstices between the bricks, the plants are inserted. In this way they have the advantage of sunshine, and are kept perfectly clean.

Maternal Memory.

Who shall estimate the value of its influence upon the world, or what finite mind is capable of over-estimating its potency, in moulding the hearts and lives ot sons and daughters, sires and matrons, not as presented to us speculatively, hy indefinable agencies and unreliable telegrams, or mediums, but in a sensible, tangible form—a faithful, truthful record of past earthly maternal virtues—lives of noble deeds—tbe tangible, definite influence of departed worth. Such a record is attainable. Let Mr. Greeley and every other person tell us more of what they know of the practical good deeds of their maternals, and less of theoretical agriculture^ and everything else, and the work is accomplished. This hint is sufficient. Shall we have the record? Such a one as would grace the columns of the New York Tribune, Harpers' Magazine, the Christian Union, or .any other publications, secular or religious? Will Mrs. Livermore through this medium, assistin the solution of. her important problem? Only thirty minutes of each week, devoted to faithful expositions of the good deeds of maternal love, will erect to the memory of our departed maternals a nobler and more enduring monument than tbe polished shaft, and give us, in a few short months, one of the most valuable works extant. Let the pulpit and the press unite with the business and home circles in rescuing from oblivion the noble lives and preeminent virtues of our departed, cherished maternals, the purifying influence of whose lives and examples should be given to the world.

In collating gems of valued thoughts from all such offerings, or other sources, for a weekly compilation for your columns, any service the writer is capable of performing will be most cheerfully rendered. COMPILER.
