has several formldlable enemies to
contend with, and among them is
the grub, which sometimes literally
destroys whole fields, and frequently
damages the crop seriously. One Of
the best aud most judlcious remedies
perhaps the very best ever sug-
gested-is the application Of s1h as
soon as the plant makes is appear
auce above ground. Take one part
common salt aud three parts plaster
or gypsum, aud uppy about a full
table spoouiul around each hill. and
1t will be found Ia be a snre protcc-
uon. The mixture should not come
ln coulact wllh the sprouts, as l may
destroy them. This method has
been tried over aud over aaain by
some OF the best farmers of Penusyl-
wanna, Delaware and Jersey, aad
when properly applied, has never
failed 10 he perfectly successful. -

Conversational Pay.

We like Senator Buffers proposition upon this
subject, far as It proposes to substitute salaries
for per diem. but we do not like the amount of
salary, So 600 each It is just double fair compen
tion for the services of efficient men, and about
the times much as the services of such men as
now occupy seats in Congress are worth. We may
do thsmt injustice but we think three hundred dol
lars year would be an exsrbitant salary for most
of them. In fact, are of opinion that it would
be more economical for the nation to pay them
$1,000 year and require them to stay at home than
three hundred, and allow them to come to Con-
gress, pass mischievous laws, and set bad exam
pie to the nation in manners and morals
Nevertheless. the great point is to give them
fxed salary, SO that they will be under no tempta
fion to waste time; take away their Thanking prv-
lege, stationery, books &c, and put them general
ly on low diet, so that they may become peacea-
BILE, meek and virtuous.

bouts has SO long been matter Of universal in
quiry and discussion, resides in Staunton. The

would have died. but for the Eruption Of the

ton referred in that declaration SO seldom quoted
on political and patriotic oecasioxs-'Give me but

could station his army in Augusta, the British
would not only never be able to dislodge them
but that every man of them would survive the
British government. man from the low lands
with chills and fever, was once seen in Staunton
The people looked upon him with the wonder with
which we should regard man with the leprosy-.
He was considered greater curiosity than the
Natural Bridge or Meyers Cave. So much for the
hesthfulness Of Staunton It's society is as retiaed
educated, and hospisable sas that Of any place in
Virginia. Its gentlemen are fuekpecimens of man
