THE A GRUB.

2tA|hs
Mn. ED1ToR Your correspondent y.
asks for information how to defend his
peach trees from the grub, The answer Is
as simple as the "way to Parish church"
It is IL fence them out, and there is no other
way, but not with n six rail fence, without
he can yoke them. / Use three methods,
all Of which are effective.
In the first place, in the spring examine
the roots thoroughly, as long as they exude
red gum, Containing The erc~ute ofthe grub.
First process Draw with the hoe u mound
Of earth about SIX inches high around the
body Of the tree, and not remove il till the
first frost, and then examine if there are
any grubs they will be so high up that they
are easily discovered andkiiled. Or. second
process Clear away as before and apply
around the body a quantity b straigbt straw
about one foot high, letting the lower ends
run out Il few inches on the ground to cover
with earth, and bind with d straw or other
band in two places: Or, third process i;
Bind on n sheet Of straw pasteboard or
binders boards, and, iftarred, all the better.
In all cases clean the tree the first frost,
as after that period there is no danger Of
the hy's impregnating the tee, as it is past
it's season. Its of no use 10 tar or apply
any offensive substance to the body Of the
tree, for as IL grows and expands the bark
cracks and exposes the tender part, where
the fly deposits It's eggs.
The parent Of this grub Is not unlike the
black wasp, with steel blue wings, and a
yellow ring around its abdomen. Its habits
are very sly and active and not easy to de-
tect. In July the grub goes into the cry
sails state, enveloped in q reddish glazed
case, and lays on the top Of the earth At
the root Of the tree.
To manure and improve a peach orchard
already set out, lethim put it under the oper-
alton of some hoed crop. Manure and
work among them ~ If they were a great
corn bill, and 50 keep doing till it is in q
thrifty state, when it may lay awhile in
grass, but not TO clover their long tap
roots get rather more than their share of
the nutriment and moisture of the the soil.
Rochester, March, 1847. Fl. Y.
To MEASURE HAY IN THE Nov Oh
STAcK.-More than twenty years since /
copied the following method of measuring
hay from some publication, and, having
verified it, general accuracy, | have both
bought and sold hay BY it and believe it
may be useful to many farmers, where the
means of weighing are not at hand.
Multiply the length, breadth, and height
into each other, and, if the hay is somewhat
settled, ten solid yards will make a ton.
Clover viii take from IL to II yards for
a ton. III. AtP.
To Cure WAITS OH CoRes.-Fake the
yolk Of an egg, thicken it with fine salt,
which apply a. a poultice at night, leaving
it off in the morning. Thus continue for
Two or three nights, until the part affected
bears a whitish appearance, then leave i
off entirely, and the wart or corn, it il said
will come out, root and branch.

THE BLIND GIRLS WALK TO HER

Transfixed | stood and mentally gazad,
For all was hushed and still.
The evening z~epIiyrs seemed afraid

For fear the silence they would break
Of that devoted hour.
With noiseless step q blind girl came,
10 press her mothers graves
With stricken heart, she meehly bowed.
Her sithtless eyes she raised.
In low pathetic tonG3 she prayed,
eT'hy will, oh ! Gddj le done"
My earthly all is buried here;
A stranger here | roam.
I've heard the tlfuttderings Of thy law
/ feel thy Christening rod
NV s6ul with grief il now overwhelmed,
ANY Savior and my God"
Near to her bosom then she pressed,
Her mothers lonely grave,
"All, all 10 right, Almighty God
Twas thou the treasure gave.
Mother, thy spirit was not laid,
Beneath the heavy sod
But it was borne by angels bright,
Up to the throne Of God.
These rayless orbs will soon behold,

BE not thy tears too harsldy ehid

The LESSONS that we learn OF W0

The gaudiest wreaths with thorns are bound

On Admiration's f'rveut glow,

A SONG-OLD JACK TAYLOR.

Tune" Old Dan Tucker"
Old lack Taylor's queer old coon,
He fights hard battles and wins them soon;
He LAYS the "Greasers'* out quite tasty,
And never takes his ''soup too hasty.
Cuorus-Old lack Taylor, bold and steady,
Sometimes Rough but always Ready.
When rifles crack and swords are flashing,
And bullets through the ranks are crashing,
When cannons roar and muskets rattle,
Old .sZack,. fronts the storm OF battle.
Old lack Taylor, &c.
When Old lack mounts his proud war stccd,
The "Greasers' run with wild stampede;
"Run you rascals," do not fail, or
I'll cabbage you all, .'says this Old Taylor.
Old lack Taylor, &c.
When Santa Anna, such Il noodle,
Heard Old lack playing Yankee Doodle,
His 'cork Leg ran with railroad speed,
And still keeps runnnG-it does indeed.
Old lack Taylor, sc.
Pm off in hurry, at every pecg,
"Dot and count onc,'' SAYS the old cork leg;
"Good bye lack and his cheek turned paler,
ssI'm not the first who has cheated Taylor"
Old lack Taylor, Sc.
Our glorious eagle never covers,
Our country's foes are ever ours;
Our proud flag floats DER brave defenders,
For Old Zack Taylor ''never surrenders'
Old lack Taylors bold and steady,
Sometimes Rough bat always Ready.

cid are necessary. But even these some
times fail, for
''Convincc a man against his will


times fail, for
''Convincc man against his will
He's of the same opinion still"
We are not liberal enough in our sentiments
towards each other, especially in matters
political and theological. Of late years the
most popular leader in party is he who has
the greatest command of words, and who
with this advantage can heap on his oppo-
nents the full quantum of abuse. II man
wishes to become acquainted with the his
tory of his forefa,hers and even OF his own
family and private life, he has only to put
himself before the people as candidate for
some public office and his desires will be
gratifed. He may be somewhat astonished
at his previous ignorance in many respects.
and may even have the exquisite pleasure OF
reading that his great-grandfather was hung,
or that he himself in infancy developed
traits of character likely to bring him to the
