A Grand Sight.

PamiLapetpnia, May 13.—The British tank steamer Duffield, from Shields in > ballast reports sighting the largest iceberg ever reported adrift in the North Atlantic. On May 4, io latitude 42, longtitud: 50 34, there appeared dead ahead on the horizon } what seemed 'o be a most peculiarly form- ed cloud, but as the veesel drew near, this object revealed iteelf in the light of an iceb-rg of tremendous proportions, From the time the berg was tirst sighted until it was brought abeam, the stip had covered the distance of 20 miles, and when this is considered, together with the fact that the weather was very hazy, the true propor. tions of the huge ice islana may be ims agioed. The sight presented as the ship approacted this great glacial fcrmation was One Of grandeur. The seas were breaking wildly over it, dashing the spray fer miles to leeward. In the vicinity of the berg the atmosphere was very cold, sod from the time it was first seeo until lost to sight, over three hours had passed. This moostrons berg was directly ia the pathway of trans-Atlantic steamers,and in foggy weather would be a most dangerous obstruction. AJ] hande en board the Duf- field agree that it was the largest berg they ever encountered.

Top Grafting ‘

“We recently reterred to the arrival of Mr. McLaughlin, an experienced top- grafter from Nova Scotia, whose services iave been engage! by Mr. D. A. Sharp, of Suremerside, Vice {president of the Fruit Geowers’ Association. On Friday we had the pleasure of inepecting work that Mr. Mc Laugblin bas dune on ine fine orchard of Mr. Wm, Pickering, 01 tke Sack Road, where he has pat in 240 new c ops of different varieties of apples and pruned the wholeorchard. The work 1. ~plendidly done—we should judge could nut be done better. Mr. Pickering has a wautitul and heslthy orchard, which wil!

o doubt epcedily show the benefit cf comtng under Mr. McLaugblio’s experien- ced hand and pruning knife. The orcbard

as stllatault, ifMr. Pickeriog will for. viceus for saying ro while we may envy om 8 possessioo—the trees are too close together, This is perhaps the commonest tenl. in mostorchards. To raise good, ro-y-cheeked epples (and this is abont as good @ feature in an apple a: in a woman) lots of sunlight must be able to penetrate tbe orchard, and it cannot where trees are <loseiy set or carry too much wood at the top in proportion to their braoch radius. We also saw Mr. McLaugbl » at work in Mr. Wm. Huot’s extensive orchard at Ss Eleavor’s, where he was top-grafting a fine lot of young trees with better varieties, and we have concludad that be isan ex- pert. H's toolsare right and be is both quick and careful. The proof of the prd- ding is in the eating, ano #0 with this kind of work—the result later on is the proof of expertvess. We have even beard the idea ea pressed that some mep are “iucky” top- grafters. However that may be, we shail be much surprised if Mr. McLaughlin’ work does not.prove by its future resuits that he is about ae well qualified in hie particular jine as they make them -—eveo in Nova Scotia.—Pie ieer,

His Honor grant- ed the request and adjourned the case un- til Wednesday next. Patrick ‘Quinn, for drunkennesa, was fined $4 or 20 days.
