CAMPuoR AND STRYCHN1NE.-The bene-
fetal effects of camphor, as an antidote to
strychnine, are illustrated in q case re-
ported by DR.. Tcwkesbery. of Portland,
Maine. 1t appears that boy was seized
with commissions, and it was ascertained
that he had just eaten biscuit picked up
at the door of an eating house, that was
made for the purpose Of killing rats, and
contained about one and half grains of
strychuine. The boys spasms we're so
severe that immediate death was inevit>
able, though all the usual remedies were
resorted to. Camphor could not be in
troduced into the stomach on account of
the continued lock-jaw. Accordingly
strong injections of camphor were used,
and the body immersed in a hot camphor
bath. and in few hours the boy was
comparatively well.

@ For the information of those who
contemplate purchasing guano, we copy
the following from the American Farmer,
published in Baltimore. It will be seen
that this article can be bought of the
editor of that journal enough cheaper,
per ton. to pay years subscription to
the Register, than ofthe Peruvian Agents.
GUANO-CHANGE IN PRICE-OUR
AGENCY.
After our July No. was issued, we
learned that Messrs. Barreda d Bro, the
Agents of the Peruvian Government for
the sale of Guano in this country, hap
made an important change in the price
and terms of the article. We intimated
in our June No. that an advance was in
contemplation, and if the orders of the
Peruvian Government were literally car
fled out, the price would then be advanc-
ed-but we had reason to believe that
the Agents were endeavoring to have
those orders countermanded. We gave
this hint, supposinG that the farmers
would, as far as possible, take advantage
of it, and secure their supplies in time, as
it was very distinctly understood, that in
no event would the price decline during
the present year.
The following are the present rates of
Messrs. Barreda 81 Bro, viz :
81 to goo tons, $50 pr ton 2,94O lbs, pr ct off.
$50 to 800 tons, $53 pr ton "
$50 to 1000 tons, $5l pr ton e
Over 1850 tons, $50 pr ton
In order that the farmer and planter
might be able to obtain his supplies at
the lowest rates, we Immediately made
our arrangements by which we were en-
abled TO announce that we could furnish
the article at about the same rates as
heretofore, if the farmers would sustain
our Agency, and we are happy to an
nounce that our anticipations have been
realized. For our terms, as now estab-
liShed, reference is made to our ADVERTISE
ment on another page, by which it will
be seen that we can deliver the best No.
A. Peruvian at $50 per ton, in any part
of the city-or if taken from the Guano
wharf, deduction will be made for the
saving OF carriage. We have no hesitation
in expressing the belief that but for this
arrangement of ours, the ruling price
would now be not less than $55 per ton.
So long as there are supplies in first hands,
and tue rates now established by the
Agents arc continued, these will be our
terms-but we have reasons for advising
those who intend using the article, to OBJ
tain their supplies as early as they can
GB and we wish it to be distinctly un-
derstood. that all orders. at present rates,
must be pail for and delivered before the Isl
of SeDte1nber-or if Maid for can he stored
at the expense of the purchaser. We
will at present make no contracts beyond
the 31st of August.

IMPORTANT TO M1L1Ens.

ROCHESTER,, Feb. II 1858.
Having heard many statements prciudicial to
your Patent Gonicnl Mills. the result ignorance
aud prejudice, confess l was unfavorably i'm
pressed for long time, until l had used some
flour made by them, when was convinced that
they were capable Of making rs good or better
flour than had ever had from any other kind
OF Mills. Now this is to certify that have in
my basement, No. l Buffalo street, two run of
your Conical Mills, with which have made,
within the last four months, large quantity of
flour, from an average of four bushels and IL
pounds of wheat to the barrel, one-haf Of which
passed for extra in the city of New York, the
other half for snpcrfne. have done this to
satisfy myself rs to the yield. l believe your
Mills require not more than onc-half us much
power as the fat stones, to do the same amour
of business. They also grind COOL consequently
the color is better andmore pure, and the flour
brighter, the fermenting properties Of the flour
not having been injured also having more
strength, and absorbs larger quantity of water
when made into bread, than flour made by the
fiat stone. Yours, Respectfully,
SAMUEL RICHARDSON.

CAUSE AND CURE OF SMUT IN
WHEAT.

A correspondent of the Genesee Farm
er writes as follows, respecting the cause
and cure of smut in wheat -
am an old farmer. have been in the
business of cultivating wheat for more
than thirty years and have heretofore
raised large quantity OF smut. l have
tried all the personalities have seen
recommended in the Farmer, without an
entire cure but for the last ten years
have raised no smut. I will low state
my former practice when l did raise smut,
and my present practice, and hope other
farmers will try the experiment, and l
think they will give up the practice Of
sleeping their seed wheat in any solution
whatever neither will they need sieve
to seperate the large seed from the small !:
il it is ripe and sound it will not bring
smut.
1 will now say that formerly harvest
ed my wheat very green, or in other
words before it was fully ripe, and made
use Of the same for seed, and from that
seed l always raised plenty Of smut. At
length my bump of casualty" whisper
ed to me, You cut your seed wheat too
green ;" and from that time have select
ed the part of my wheat field that ri pens
the evenest, and let it stand in the field
until it is dead ripe, and until weather.
beaten. and have raised no smut since
followed the above rule.
Some seasons my wheat does not ri pen
even and if find II green head when 1
am cutting my seed wheat, throw it
out ; for 1 am fully of the opinion that a
small unripe grain of wheat, if it vegetables
at all, will bring smut. Such grain
contains but very small particle Of vi
tally and solution of salt, vitriol, or lime
will sometimes destroy the vitality, so
that the grain does not vegctate and
here is where farmers are mistaken
they suppose they destroy the smut, when
in fact it is the unripe, sickly grain, which
produces smut, that they destroy. I say
again to my brother farmers, try it, and
my word for it you will not be sorry.

other kind of Mills.
To the above Mills have been awarded at diff
