TIE CiTTL3 SHOW.

About two weeks since our Town was cx'
cited 70 little b.; Tie sudden appear ance OF
t~o lag Bulls, Of two Of our brag stock
raises. -iz: Epl. EIcELEs aid Col. tRAlER,
regularly cap.risoncl and pittcd against
each other, and each owner perfectly SAIL
suiue Of hearing off the prize a silver eup.)
A crowd of Interested spectators, divided
half and halt, in their estimates of the fine
points of these two noble animals, were inn
1ncdiately on the ground and rendered it
difficult for the judges to please the majority
Col. F's Bull was full Devon and was well
backed by large number Of our best
lovers of fine stock. Col. P's, Bull was a
grade Durham with cross of Bramin. and
for his age was certainly we'll developed
and hanesome animal, and had many admi.
rers.
The decision of the judges after poising
and undulating for long time amidst the
anxiety of the spectators, finally turned
the scale in favor of Col. PIcKENs' Bull ;
and he went off believing with the cup, to
the great CONSERVATION Of the majority OF
the crowd, and especially OF Col. FRAZIER.
Col. F., also exhibited some superior
specimens of half Devon stock, also full
Devon Heifer, and some grade Durham
stock, that will do credit to any cattle show.
Another superior full Devon Bull was
also exhibited. Col. P, exhibited some fine
specimens of grade Ayreshire stock, which
taken all together, was cattle show that
was hard to beat.

FOR TIE ADVERTISER.
THE BILL BUG OR CORN BORER.

Nh. EDITOR: Perhaps it will not be
amiss to give to your many readers my OBJ
servation and experience during this last
spring and summer on the above Bug.
noticed some time in the early part OF
the spring, whilst I was engaged in sowing
oats that nearly or quite all Of the old rag
or carrot weeds had holes in them as though
something had Taisedin the pa;h Of the stem,
had matured and come out. The more
examined the more | found it to be 80, until
at length determined to sec what insect
had Inhabited the rag weed during the last
summer. After close watch until about
the middle Of May, discovered that some
of the most forward weeds had grown to
be about four inches high when | discovered
that small incisiou or panatur had been
made near the bud Of the main stem; and
upon further examination | found it to con.
tain small yellow egg about the s'ze OF
small mustard seed. then kept close
lookout to see what kind Of an insect de-.
posted the egg. looked steadily for some
time and almost came to the conclusion that
the eggs nuat be deposited in the night time
and not in the day. But, after continued
aud very close examination, and when the
weeds become more plen,ier and larger, and
the Bugs more abundant, | found them at
length making their inclosure and also de-
posting the egg.
For description of the Bill Bug or Cor"
Borer refer your readers to the Patent
Office Report for 1854, where you will find
Senator EVANS description.
But for fear that some of your readers
may not have an opportunity Of seeing the
Patent Office Report, will give my descrip.
iions of The BIZ Bug have discovered.

in this show of the best lot of stock hogs.
Of course they put themselves, to the

TREES FROM SEEp.-A few years ago
we made large collection of the seeds OF
shade and ornamental trees, both decidunus
and evergreen, and planted with much care,
but did not get seed 10 vegetate. This
season we have found out what was the
matter: we planted too deep. 1t is well
known that in the pine regions of Georgia
this has been a great mast year, and we now
find every where the winged seeds have met
the suriace soil, they have thrown out roots,
and begun the form of tree. They had
no planting but what nature gave them, and
dame nature is tollerable horticulturist.-
Wo invariably plant tree seeds; just soil
enough to preserve the moisture is all that
IS necessary. An ornamental tree grown
from seed, may be made anything the cult.
wafer wishes it. A fruit tree grown BY seed
is most likely to be healthy, and may prove
sure and valuable variety. II has been u
question Of time with most Of US; we could
not wait for tree seeds to form trees. A
pine seed will make boards in II years.
Apple seeds will make fruit.bearing trees in
four years. Grapes in two and three years
Peaches aud plu,ns i'll 2 years. The China
tree seed will make q good shade tree in d
wears. 4 man may have tnrest or an
orchard from seed, if he will. Even the
acorn and hickory nut may be planted with
profit. Plant tree seeds, reader, and you
will b. ;lstoniSl.e,l at the work o your hands
in few years.-Exrhange.
