Read the advertisement of Harvey Curtis in to-day's paper. He is of fering rare-bargains. The Christian Union and Mr. Iieeeher. : The announcement 6ome months since that Henry Ward Bkeciier was to assume editorial control of The Cturch Union, aroused great interest throughout the country; and the change of name to Christian Union, together with the rapid advance and improvements of its columns, showed thatsomo new impulse was at. work within It. Mr. Beecher lms taken absolute editorial charge. His Influ ence has been very observable in the tone and power of the paper, 'while hi3 pen is a regular contributor to its columns. The oarer comes in a larger and even handsomer foim than ever, pre serving the sixteen quarto pages fold ed and having a new and beautiful heading, large,-clear type, and a re- auarkaUe variety of admirable matter. As a religious paper it is pure and fer vent ; as a family paper interesting and able; showing not only Mr. Beecher's always welcome genius and heloine teachings, but also the co-operation of a strong corps of regu lar editors, writers and outside con trlbutors. . ." The rapid spread of this virtually new religious journal throughout the land and the professional, literary and pecuniary success already attain ed by it, show that it supplied a real need of Ihe Christian public.

Sec. 2. That when anjvsuch stock shall be found on the premises of an other,' it shall be lawful for the owner, or person in possession of said premis es to impound said stock, and if the owner of said stock can be found, and Is known to the taker up,' it shall be the duty, of Eaid taker up to n6tify him within twtdaya, by personal ser vice or by leaving a written notice at his usual place of residence, with some-persou of his family over the age of fourteen years, of the taking of eaid stock, describing it and requir ing him to forthwith take the said stock, after making full payment of the damages and cost to the taker up. . Sec. 3. In case the parties cannot agree as to the amount of damages and costs, each party may choose a man, and in case either party refuse to choose a man, then the nearest Justice of the Peace of ihe county shall choose a man instead, and in case the two men chosen caiinot agree they snail choose a third man. who. after being daly sworn for the purDos es, the three, or a -majority of them 6naii proceed to assess the damages, possfysing for thafc purpose the gener al power of attributors, and the said attnbutors shall make an award m writing and their decision shall be fi nal, from which there shall be no ap peal, a copy of which award shall be riled with the nearest Justice of the Peaco in said county, and shall oper ate as a judgement at law and execu tion shall issue at the request of the party, in whose favor said award was founii, for the collection af damages and costs as in other cases.

Sec. 6. This act shall tike effect and be In force from and after its pas- (Jraftin? Grape Vines. , The process of grafting Grape Vines is entirely simple, being ordinary cleft grafting, and can be done by the most common workman who is "handy in the use of the knife. Less than one-half the vines now growing in gardens throughout the United btates, give sufficient fr6od fruit to pay the expenses of ordinary cultivation", for the reason that many - 1 A . I I a T are oi late varieties which uo vol ri pen oftener than one vear in five. while others are of such inferior sorts as to be of little value. All such vicets if vigorous and hardy, are of great value to graft with best early kinds. . In purchasing vines, maiiy have been misled in their selections by re ports from persons iu more favored localities, or by ignorant or designing; agents, whose chief idea has been to sell a large number of varieties. The result is, that in nearly every garden may be found from one to one dozen or more, good, vigorous, and healthy vines, large enough to pro duce from ten to twenty pounds of grapes each, but which have never been of one dollar's value ; some bear ing abundantly, but never ripening, while others areof worthless varieties. It has never occurred to many who have such vines that they have any particular value; but every such vine that is vigorous, hardy and healthy, is worth several dollars to graft. Old vines properly grafted have often pro duced ten pounds of fruit the second' year, and very heavy crops the third. W h ol e vi n ey ar d s , con tai n i n ir h u n d re of vines, have been changed by graft ing from the condition of worthless ness to valuable sorts, paying several dollars per vine annually. WIIEX TO GRAFT GRAPE VINES. Grape vines may be grafted in the Fall or early Winter, or before the sap starts in the fcpnng. Grafting is also done extensively. and with entire success, after the first now of sap in the bpring, when the vines are in leaf: usually about the 2.5th of May to the 1st of June in this latitude, but earlier in places further South. FULLER S METHOD OF GRAFTING TIIE GRAPE. All who have read A. 8. Fuller's valuable work upon Grape Culture, have noticed that he gives a long and valuable chapter upon the subject of grafting vines, giving tiie whole pro cess in detail, with several illustra tions. This work is a complete and general treaties upon the grape, des cribing each operation minutely, and 2-6m would recommend it to every person interested in growing vines. Mr. Fuller's method is as follows : In the Fall, after the leaves have fal len, and any time before the ground has frozeu say iu October, November, or uecemoer, varying according to latitude dig away the soil from around the stock (which may be of any 6ize from one-riair pnen to two indies in diameter) and ut It off at a depthi of not less than threo inches from the surrace." bput the stock in the ordinary manner for cleft grafting. Make the graft about four inches long, with one or two buds, as may be con venient. ' and. ctittins -it-to wedtre shape, it.scTt It iff-the tock,- being careful to ha ve the Inner bark, of both the stock and graft meet ; then tie in the graft by winding the stock with bass-bark or strong twine, enough to hold it firmly in place. v Next, throw in. soil enough to Jill up around the graft," filling to the upper bed ; then put a flower-pot (a small lox will ans wer the purpose), inverted, pver the graft for protection. Bank up around .the-flower-pot to the top, and overall place straw or leaves to protect from frost. The protection should not be removed until the cold, freezing weather is over. v-''.'-'0:": Mr. Fuller states that grafts inserted after this plan; will make almost as strong growth as the original vine would have done, if it had not been grafted. . .5 Y': S ' ' :" . The same method of grafting may be practiced .immediately, after the frost comes put of the ground in the Spring, before the flow of sap starts. GKAKTEN'a VIXES SviIEN IN LEAF. As good success in grafting vinesr as we have ever witnessed has been with vines grafted, about the 25th of May. when the first free flow of sap. had passed. The earth should be removed and cion inserted the same as In Ful ler's method, replacing the earth so as. to cover the upper bud of the cion, making a slight mound to do this, if necessary. ,..''; ''' ;V- Vines should always be grafted be low the surface; and th e grafts should 1 r .a . ii. 1 l .

In a copy of the American ' Agricul' turist for 18C3, we find the subject of grafting grape vines treated by a cor respondent as follows : -. . "The grafting is done when the vine is in leaf and danger of bleeding has , past. . Remove, the earth from about the vine to the depth of three or four inches. Split the stock and insert the cion in the usual way of cleft grafting. Apply Jio wax or otb er composition, but simply wind the stock with bass matting or yarn, and replace the earth about thetock and cion.'-' - - j- n -r j jj Iu a morel recent npmher of the same valuable journal; we find, the following: . .1'- . X "Grafts carefully inserted grow ivith surprising rapidity and vigor, and the method affords a very easy way of re placing at indifferent or worthless va riety of grape with a good one, and of imparling greater vigor to, a slower growing sort- by giving ifc'a stock- of stronger roots. Jf properly done, Uie risk of failure is very small." - Those who have strong vines of har dy varieties, , the fruit of which does not ripen, or when rif e, is of inferior quality, should lose no time in graft ing them with valuable sorts which Will give an abundant 'crop of fruit the second season, and make the pro duct of each one of their now worse than worthless vines return, several dollars in value annually.
