DISEASE IN SILK WoRms.--Mr. Glide
on b. Smith, the intelligent and ardent
advocate Of the culture Of silk in this coun.
try, has addressed letter to the Editors
OF the National Intelligencer, in which he
states that by an examination of some
plates in French journal, he has receiv-
ed, representing the different stages Of the
disease, called Muscadine, in silk worms,
he is satisfied that II is the identical dis
ease which destroyed great part of the
silk worms in this country last summer.
By the ravages of this disease in Europe,
taking one year with another, the average
loss Of worms has been from forty-fve TO
fifty per cent. per snnum. He announces
a remedy and preventive for the disease,
which is fortunate at this season, just be.
fore the preparations for the ensuing crop,
as well as important, in the incipiency of
the culture with us. The remedy is the
free application Of air slaked lime to the
worms, and also to the floors of the co.
coonery, and whitewashing all the wood
work of the fixtures. The lime should
be sllted through line sieve on the rorms
two or three times week, If healthy, and
once a day if diseased, in the morning be-
fore the first fee ding, and after cleaning
the hurdles. The quantity of lime 10 be
sifted on the worms may be just sufficient
to whiten the worms and leaves well; and
it should be commenced when the worms
are halfgrown, say twelve to fifteen days
old. This remedy has, during the past
two years, enabled those persons in France
who used it, to save and obtain c':oons
from ninety-seven per cent. of all the
worms ha.ched. Rich. Com.

A~MERICANISMS.

The following definition and Illustration of
adverbs is taken from the Comic English Gram-
mar published in London. sa "a
tAn adserb is n part Of speech, which, joined
to a verb, al, adjective, or another adverb, serves
to express SOM quality or circumstance Concern

rightly lazy /; and she is almost continually in
liquor. @s q" b"* 7fsf
"An ad,erb 10 generally characterised by an
swering 10 the question, how 7 how much!
when! or where? as in the verse, : Merriiy
danced the Quaker's wife, the answer to the
q .estion, How did she dance! is merrily. E
"Sevcrai adverbs have been coined in America
of late ; and some Of then are very remarkable
for a particular elegance: as, . reckon your

In the example just given there is 10 be found.
besides the new adverb which if not also new 10
the English student, is rendered 80 both by its
orihography aud pronunciation; namely cHAwEp.
This term is no other than .chewed,' modified
(as words, like living things, would seem to Beg
by transportation 10 a foreign country. .Chawed
up is a very strong expression, and is employed
to signify the most complies state Of discomiture
