LORD RAGLAN- Let the dead rest in peace! Let not tllt‘ cold blast of scandal swerp over tllc gt'tl‘:0 of a coon .‘\h\.\', but rather let us “vine

chaplets to his liotior and drop a tent‘ "fl

sorrow to his memory. Vices he had none,‘ then let not his vii-tut.-s be forgotten. ll success did not crown all his elliu-t-i in the great existing struggle, it was owing t0.'_l|lll° culties uirforesiren either by lIIHI~'C1l. _“l' other.-. lfhe conquered on the ;\llllIl.—ll ho vanqnisliod his foes at llll{<‘l':tli1ll, and failed in ilClIi<‘\'lllg ii linal victor)’ at Scbastopol-_— it should he reiueuilii.-rcil, that he lost his life in the attempt, and his counti-_v could hardly require more ofhiin. ‘

But it is not all who lay -'16-.‘.lI-‘ﬂllU||S against him, for it will Il0\’(‘l' be ailinittcil that the chosen man of the great captain who triumplied at \Vatcrloo could fall llllt)‘ the errors that tliougiitlcss \\‘l'ltt‘l‘S have attributed to him. No! the ()lll:.'t‘l' selected by the Duke of \Velliugton to cai'i'_v his most ‘ important orders, to know his secrets, and i share his conﬁdence in all the hard won fields of the Peninsula, we niay be assured \vas not a military blockhead.. (')n the bloo- dy plains of \Vatei-loo, he lelt his right arm as a pledge of his devotion to his leader and to his country!-—-to I<Zng|and—to that coun- try whose son he was, and who sitting_en- tlironcd in the bosom ofthe ocean has tor a thousand years

" braved the battle and the breeze."

It has been said that he differed from his French colleagues, in conunand; that Go- neral Pellisier scouted his abilities and wish- ed him out of the way. But let us read the eulogy pronounced by this same Generalv Pellisier to his memory, intlie general order to the French army alter the hero's death; I let us read it again and again and ponder) on it, for although short, it says much. ltl breathes an eloquence and a pathos not less honorable to the pen than to the heart ofi the noble French chicliain:

"Those who have known Lord R.aglan- l “ who have known the history of his life, sol “ noble, so pure, so full of patriotic services I H ._[ll0S0 who were witnesses of his intre- u pidity in the days of Alina and Inkerman “ -—who can rccal the stoical grandeur of “ his character throughout his rough and; “ memorable campaign—in a word, all men “with hearts will deplore the loss of such a , “man. The sentiments which the Gene-, “ ral-in-Cliicfliere c.vpre-.=ses will be those; “ oftlie entire army. lie himsclfis shock-. “ cd by this unlook-ed-for blow. The gent.» V “1-alls griefis increa.-‘ed with him in ﬁnding’ “ himself for ever separated from a compa-= “ niou in arms whose cordial spirit he loved, ;‘ “ whose virtues he admired, and with wliom “ he always found loyal and affectionate “ concurrence. " I

It may be said that this is the voice of a Be it so; but who can gainsay its truth and its justice’! Yet suppose it to be only the voice ofa friend, let us hear the opinion of a foe; let us read what the Russians say:-—

“ Lord Raglan has died. During the en- “ tire pcrioil of the command of this noble “ general, he succeeded in conciliating the “ esteem and respect not only of those with “ whom his nation was allicd, but also of ' ‘ the enemy to whom he was opposed “ He was one of the last of the heroes of ‘ ‘that glorious English army which, under “ the command of the l)uko of Wellington, "illustrated the English name, on so many “battle-ﬁelds, and of which the few remain- “ ing veterans bore on their breasts, til]

little, and “better is little, with the fear of God, than great treasures and trouble therewith.” Two men were detcriniaed to be rich; but they set about in different ways, for the one strove to raise up his means to his desires, while the other did his best to bring down his desires to his means. The result was, the one who coveted so much was always repining; while he who desired but little, was always contented.

The skipping lamb, the singing lark, and the leaping ﬁsh, tell us that happiness is not confined to one place. God in his goodness has spread it abroad on the earth, in the air, and in the water. Two aged women lived in the same cottage; one was always fearing a storm, and the other was always looking for sunsliine—-hardly need I say, which it was wore a forbidding frown. or which it was, whose face was lighted up with joy.

How To invs No \\’iar.us T0 PULL.-— Stir the ground often, and they will never get big enough to pull. A loose top-soil can be stirred up half a dozen times with a hoe in the time required to go over it once in the pulling process. The i-owtli of all plants will also be greatly promoted by the frequent stirring of the soi .

CURRANT 'l'iu:i:s.—-Currant bushes may as well be made trees as shrubs. In the spring of 1831, my father set cuttings for currant bushes. I determined to experiment on one of these cuttings, and as it grew, I pinched ofl'all the leaves except the top tuft, which [ let grow. The cutting was about fourteen inches long, and during the sum- mer the sprout from this grew ten inches. The next spring I pinched off all the leaves to iibotit half way up the first year's growth, so as to leave the lowest limb two feet from the ground. It brauclied well, and became a handsome little dwarf :tree. When it ciiine to bear fruit, it was more productive than any other bush in the garden, and the fruit larger. It was less infested with spiders mid other insects; hens could not pick of the fruit, and grass and weeds were more easily kept from the roots, and it was an ornament, instead ofa blemish. Now, I would propose that current cuttings be set in rows about four or five feet I art each way—lot them be long and straig t ones-.. and trained into trees—.MicIia'gan Farp)cr_
