tween a highly respectable mercantile house in
New York city, and Roman Catholic clergyman

the restitution, by some one, of money wrongfuIly
Obtained, has been communicated to the Com

form no idea of the identity of the party who has
thus made restitution Neither their books nor
their recollections furnish them any clue to the

From the Boston Courier.
The Potatoe Disease.
CAspRrpaE, April 8, lS4S.

CAMBRfpGE, April 8, 184S.
Dear Sir,-A new work by Baron
Liebig, which has just reached me, and
which will be issued from the American
press in few days, contains the views
of this distinguished author upon the ma
ture of the Potaioe Disease. After its
publication in Europe, there appeared
in the Journal of the Agricultural Asso-
citation of Hesse Darmstadt the method
of DR.. Klotsch for the prevention of dis
ease. This method is such as gives
strength to the views expressed by Bar
on Liebig.
DR.. Klotsch is keeper of the Royal
Herbarium in Berlin, and an eminent
vegetable Psychologist.
The memorial was referred to the
Minister Of the Interior, who requested
DR.. Klotsch to discuss the matter with
the College of Rural Economy.
This resulted in the offer of the con-
ditional reward.
have met with the statement that,
within the last year or two, some now
ers, without intentional good service,
spread several swaths through the pota-
toe field of a New England farmer, and
thus secured, wherever the tops were
partly destroyed, crop of sound pota-
toes; while everywhere else in the field
the potatoes were infected by the rot.
Another fact of similar character has
come to my knowledge. A small far
mer of Long Island caused all the BIOS
sons, as they appeared in his potatoe
field, to be picked off. The potatoes,
when harvested, were all sound.
These facts acquire new value from
the support they lend to the views of
Baron Liebig and the method of DR..
Klotsch.
The method of DR.. Klotsch follows.
can but wish for it a wide circulation,
and faithful trial by farmers and gar
deners.
am very respectfully and truly yours,
EBEN N. HORSFORD.
