CtsrERNs.-Every barn should have a cistern
for the use of cattle in winter. A cstern is gen.
orally cheaper and better than a well, and as
the distance to raise the water is SO much less
than from a we'll, a vast amount of labor is thus
saved in pumping up the water. cistern 10
feet in diameter and #. deep will hold 1853 bar
rels. That is a very good size to make barn
cisterns. If you want more capacity, make two.

CATERPILLARs.--Lookov over your orchards at this
time before the leaves grow, for the catcrpllar's
nests. You will find the first few sunny days of
May will hatch out myriads of these pests, and
they may be DESTROYED with very little labor while
young. If permitted to grow they will destroy
your crop of fruit. very goodaway to destroy
these nests is this: Take piece of sheep skin
with wool on, and tack it upon the end of pole.
Dip this in fish oil and wipe out the nest from the
forks of the tree with its young breed of worms,
and the work is done for all that are touched by
the swab, while many more will perish by
exposure. Repeat the process as often as the
nets appear.

POWER OVER THE TERgIToRIEs.-In the early
stage of the discussion of Congressional power
concerning Slavery, We claimed that Congress
had the right to lesislate on the subject in the
Territories of the United States. This was en-
phatically denied by the pro-slavery prints, par
ticularly by one or two of the Democratic papers
OF this city. What now? Why Judge Mclean
in letter to Gen. Cass, says:-
You may recollect that have in conyersati on
with you, said that Congress, having the power
TO es'aohsh lerritoriai Government, might, in
the exercise of police power. prohibit slavery.
