The harvest began in the surrounding fields
in the middle of August, and was very mid
ding. The tubers were throughout smaller
than usual, very scabby, and within these
fields, TO a small extent, attacked by wet rot.
In the end of August, the difference be-
tween the rows treated by me,S those not
treated become SO striking, that it astonished
all the work people in Gneighborhood, who
were never tired ofinquiring the cause. The
stalks of the rows left TO themselves were all
now partly dried, partly dead.
On the contrary, the rows treated MS above
We're luXuriant and in full vigor, the plants
bushy, the foliage thick, the leaves large and
dark green, so that most people supposed
they had been later planted.
But the difference in the tubers was also
very decided. The tubers in the plants in
the rows treated by my plan were not, indeed
larger, but vastly more numerous, and they
were neither scabby nor affected with any
disease whatever A few had pushed,-
(which was to be ascribed to a late rain,) and
were, apparently incompletely developed,
while scab and wet rot attacked more and
| more the tubers of the other plants, which
also fell off on the slightest handling.

am able TO explain the nature ofthe potato
disease which has visited us oflate years, yet

of Strengthening the potato plant to such n
degree as to enable it TO resist tho influences
which determine such diseases.
Should any one be deferred from continuing
the cultivation of potatoes, on account of the
manipulation here recommended, which may
be performed by women and even by chill
dren,t Iwould remind him that the same
field planted with potatoes is capable of sup
plying food to twice as many persons as when
employed to grow wheat
~Any one would be bitterly disappointed,
who on the principle that ''there cannot be too

While the proceedings necessary to estnb-
lish the illegally of the pretended marriage
ofDe Oranges with Xulme Carriere were
pending, Daniel Clark was called away from
New Orleans to attend TO his public and pol
itical duties at Washington. lie left his wife
at New Orleans under the care of friends
residing there, and remained in Washington
and the North for some months, constantly
corresponding with her, and manifesIing un-
ubated affection.
In the meantime, the evidence convicting
De Oranges of bigamy, after many searches
for the records of the former courts, which
had been lost or misplaced in the confusion
incident to the exchange of Jurisdictions, was
recovered, and the fact of the nullily of this
pretended marriage to Zulime Cnrriere was
fully established on legal and documentary
testimony. Nothing was now lacking 10 the
security of the honor and rights of the wife

which wrought all the wrong and misery af-
terward suffered by his wife and himself, and
by his child, TO remedy which has required
