ND GARDENER'S JOURNAL 



We shall pursue our subject in a future paper. H. C. 



P. S. It has been requested that I sliould affix my 

 initials to my communications. In a matter of so little 

 importance it would be uncivil to refuse, especially as it 

 may sometimes save the reputation of others, who mi"ht 

 suffer under uncomfortable charges. My good friend-, 

 ^ J. B., likewise, though a sound believer in the doctrine of 

 imputation, thinks, I dare say, that he has sins enough lo 

 answer for without incurring any responsibility for^me. 

 Until further advised I will thereforo usoally, but not 

 always, affix my initials. I say not always, for when 

 ever for example, I propose to attack any man's private 

 character and perhaps ruin his reputation, or wish to cir- 

 culate some vile story, which I know to be utterly false, 

 because perhaps I have made it out of the whole cloth,' 

 why then I shall remember that the " soundest part of 

 valor is discretion .:" and give only the general and con- 

 vement authority with many editors in such cases, and 

 remark, " T^ey say so.'' It would be ridiculous to pre- 

 tend to any literary ambition in the case. The farmer 

 would hardly understand the term. My sole object is to 

 be useful ; and to be therefore as plain and practical as 

 possible. ij p
