CURcUL1o.-A correspondent of the
New Y ork Observer recommends the
use Of Petroleum oil in it's crude state
as remedy for the curculio. s'That
from the Little Kanawha region is the
best. Apply the Oil with brush or
cloth to the trunk and branches of the
tree when the curculio first makes it's
appearance in the spring, or just be-
fore, and you will have the pleasure of
observing that the insects will give it
a wide berth. One or two applications
will suffice. Tie oil rot only preserves
the tree and fruit from insects, but i'm
parts a smooth and healthy appear
ance to the bark, bringing out the col
or. The oil will destroy lice on cattle
and dogs, and, [ suppose, on children

tried on the latter. Two applications

FLoYD.-The most artistic and finely
colored portrait we have yet seen of
Floyd is drawn by the editor of the
Philadelphia North american. We
reproduce the outlines:
There are many tribes Of williams,
with varying types of villiany, from
murderers, poisoncrs, and pirates to
midnight foot-pads and mousing sneak
thieves. Each tribe has its grades Of
criminals, each type its shades Of crime
from wickedness made almost re-
spectacle by courage, to depravity
crowned by basest cowardice and
treachery to traitors. Of the lowest
tribe and lowest in that tribe, is one
floyd--a fellow mixed of all the ele-
ments or meanness, and whose Chris
tan name we withhold, since it is
shame to Christendom that such a thing
was ever born within its borders or
baptized with its holy symbols. His
career-if we may so call his secret,
slnuous and Shiny trsck-has placed
him before all rivals in the ranks Of liv.
ing scoundrelism, and fully 4 p with the
rilest CT buried Williams.

SENATORIAL WIT-FVhen the Sec

the dispatch announcing the victoru'

plause in the galleries. The following
dialogue took place: 1h5 !

The Chair rules that the cheering III
the galleries was not i'll applause or
censure Of any action Of the Senate,
and they would not, therefore, be esM-
ed to order. ire
A dispatch from rebel source was
afterwards read. confirming the FIRST
account, when the applause In the gal
leries was renewed.

A Parable, by President Lincoln.

It is quite generally known that our
worthy President is somewhat ''some''
on story, and likes to illustrate his
conversation by the introduction of in
cidents, drawn from his own expert
ence or that of others. A gentleman
relates All occurrence which is striking
ly characteristic of this weakness. if
it can be called such.
Just after the retirement of Secreta-
ry of War, Cameron, there was con-
siderable talk about the probability Of
further changes in the Cabinet. Many
supposed that the Secretary Of the Ma
Wy would be displaced, and in antici-
patton OF such an event, several gen
tlemen from Connecticut called upon
the President to urge the appointment
OF another man from their State. Mr..
Lincoln received them kindly, ard hav-
ing listened with all gravity to their
suggestions, replied =
'Well, gentlemen, your application
reminds me of an affair which took
place ont in Illinois ween was young
man. 1t came to pass that the place
Whefe hVed was made very disagree
able by an lrruption Of skunks, large
numbers of which took up their abode
in the vicinity and committed serious
depredations among the chicken coops
and hens nests, besides emitting q We
ry unpleasant odor. Finally the nui-
sance became so intolerable that
party Of public spirited youths, of
whom was one, determined to abate
it. Accordingly we assembled one
night, with ali the dogs we could mus
ter, and went in for hunt. After con-
siderable beating about we surrounded
five Of the vermin in corn-feld, and
succeeded in killing one of 'em; but,
gentlemen, that one made such a stink
that ece concluded 1t acasnt best to dis
turJ the others !!''
1t is understood that the Connecti-
cut gentlemen left the White House,
satisfied.

A Fortunate Kiss.

The following pretty story is narrat-
ed by Frederika Bremen, who vouches
for its truth:
In the university of Upsula, in Swe-
den, lived q young student, noble
youth with a great love for studies, but
without the means of pursuing them.
Still he studied, living in great power
ty, but keeping up cheerful heart,
and trying to look at the future which
looked SO grimly at him. His good
humor and excelle mt qualities made
him beloved by his young comrades.
One day he was standing with some Of
them in the great square of Upsula,
prattling away an hour Of leisure, when
the attention of the young men be-
came arrested by young and elegant
lady, who, at the side Of an elderly
one, was slowly walking over the place
1t was the only daughter Of the Gov
ernor Of Upland, living in the city, and
the lady with her was her governess.
She was generally known for her good
ness and gentleness Of character, and
looked upon with admiration by all the
young students. AS the young men
stood gazing at her she passed on like
a graceful vision, when one Of them
