Tue PopE AND ANNA BIsHor.-While at
Rome, Anna appeared at the Vale Theatre
for fifteen consec utiye nights in Lecia. and was
called out twenty-five times in one evening, a
circumstance that gives US an idea of ltalian
enthusiasm. and of the genius which could thus
excite it. The Pope, hearing SO much praise
of Anna, expressed wish to hear her; but 70.
males not being permitted to enter the ponti'
hca apartments, she remained in room ad.
joining that of the Pope, where she sang sa
cred air of Palestina; at which his Holiness
was so greatly charmed that he conferred up
on her. by the hands of Cardinal Zacchia, the
ancient and noble order Of Santa Cecilia, with
a cross of precious stone.

caught; for after all. there is no better security
against their ravages then is to be found in
catching and drowning them.
Cuiture.-Atth the first working, thin out the
plants so as to leave 9 or 3 in hill. The pun
kins must then be kept clean until tho runners
cover the ground. The cheapest plan of oul.
tivating them, would be to use the cultiuator
and hoe. until from the extention of the vines
the former implement can not be used, af
ter that, the latter one must be relied upon al
together. Three cul,ivations will answer the
crop.

pUMKfNS.

Let US again say to our readers, that every
farmer and planter should have his acre, or
more, of pumkins, and that the sooner they
plant them this month the better will their
chance be for making a crop. Almost every
farmer knows how TO cultivate this excellent
stock vegetable; but there may be many
new beginners among our numerous readers,
we will state how we grow ours; but in sta
ting our plan, we do not assume for it any su
periority over that of others, but m.rely give
it for what il is worth
In the first place e prepared a rich COM
post composed ofequal parts of stable or barn
yard manure, and wood ,s-mould. We then
ploughed our land deep, narrowed and rolled
H. then run shallow burrows 10 feet apart one
way, and similar ones, at the same distance a.
cross these. At the intersection of each last,
we spread shoveliu of the compost, dug 1t
in with the hoe, on which We formed fiat hill,
about inches high. In each hill we planted
or pumkn seed, 2 or inches apart, and
covered them about or 2 inches IN depth
In planting the seed we had rcgord to regular
ty of distance, say or inches apart.
Top dressing forMe hWs.--When the seed
We're planted, we strewed with free hand o
yer the hills compost formed of three parts
well rotted dung, parts rich mould, and l
part ashes, and then busted plaster over thai
Management ofMe vines.--Whcn the plants
first come up, you must be prepared TO operate
against the striped bug, or all your labor IN
preparing the ground, may be lost even 10
few days. :,
AS prerenttue, mix well together. l bushe
of ashes, J bushel of plaster, peck OF SCOT, ]

and each morning, early, for say three weeks,
while the dew is on the vines, dust them with
this mixture. We will here remark, that it is
useless to begin this application, unless you
follow it up each morning, until from the indu
rated condition of the plants, they are secured
from the attacts ofthe bug; the omission ofthe
single day may prove fatal to your hopes OF
crop.
In addition TO this. piggin or noggin, or
some other vessel, with water in 1t, should be

speak not Of the use of any OF these articles
incidentally but as Injuries
A writer In Lakewood seems to think that
there IA some foundation in the human con
st;tut;on for such universal habit and erav-
ing, and that mankind would never have
Welded to these unless there was really need
ne narcotics and stimulants. We can, by no
means, agree with him. The broad fact meets
us at the outset that man is organized essen
TALLY like other animals. These never use
either narcotics or stimulants in any FORM
Food and water constitute the maximum of
their desires, and are amply sufficient to the
perfect development of their natures. We
conclude, then. that a mans body is nearest
to normal and healthy state, when he has
INDUCED in no stimulant or narcotic. Expe
rience has shown this fact again and again,
and yet we persist in the use of things which
our own judgment tells us are deleterious. We
steep our bodies in alcohol and nicotine, and
complain that we are sick; we return to plain
food and water and are well again; yet, the
lesson is lost upon most of u.s. because of the
pernicious and artificial habits which exist in
modern society. We know that an ounce of
blood, more or less in the head, will make
man fool or philosopher, and yet we urge
tho vital current to the cerebrum by all sorts
of provocatives. In short, we drink, smoke
and chew to make ourselves happier, while
consciously sapping the physical foundations,
even of comfort. Thus do individuals and
nations forget or neglect the most evident
conditions of health and strength, in the in
diligence of appetites alike disgraceful and
injurious.
SHIP AHoY.-The Washington Republic of
yesterday says:
1t may be interesting 70 the public to learn that Mr.
Porter expects to start for the Worlds Fair, with
passengers in his eroport in the Of six weeks
and that he is now busily engaged in constructing his
machine on Fourth street, between M and \ streets.
We bespeak passage for the second trip.
The first may not be so safe as we could wish,
and we doubt whether Mr.. Porter will get any
thing but freight, till people see whether sail
ing in the air is dangerous to their necks.

Trouble among Editors.

Greeley, of the New York Tribune. and
Bennett, of the Herald, have got into ire
mendous paper warfare. If half they saw of
each other is true they must both be as
graceless a pair of scamps as could be de-
scribed by any words in the dictionary
Greeley accuses Bennett of a fondness for
'"6Iack mail but he completely out Herods
Bennett by his strong affection both for black
male and female. He has been troubled for
several years with a terrible headache for tho
poor negroes and this, together with some i'll.
news from the other world, which has been
lately raped out, has put him in perfect
passion. He pitches into Bennett in a way
that is really refreshing in this hot weather.
He says that Bennett is the founder Cf the
Satanic press and calls him moral
Thug" In describing his course, he says:
He attacked the tiInid, the gentle, the generous,
and the forgiving. No innocence or courtesy was

The Narcotics and StimuIants we Indulge in.

Man appears either to feel or fancy the
need of somewhat beyond the pabulum ne
cessary to mere animal existence. Food fari
nacious, animal, all sorts, are offered in all
chimes, ever varying in form, yet still con-
tanning the same or similar elements Tho
universal solvent, water, is to be found every
where, so that, if mans wants ended here. he
might in every zone be happy These prime
requisites OF existence are attainabIe every
where without extraordinary effort. In the
tropics, nature will pour them in a law mans
lap almost without his agency-and in every
cline the work of few days will furnish the
absolute necessaries of life for whole
twelvemonth.
But our race, whether from some primeval
curse, or unaccountable idiosyncrasv. have
by common consent, and without mutual con
sultation, arrived at the conclusion. that
something beyond all these absolute necessa-
RES IS wanting to make men happy. Beef
and bread, water and pure air, are all GOOD
Out we must have something to intensity life,
ana at the same time to sooth and calm the
uhquiet spirit, as we go forth on our daily
missions of business or pleasure
