Aloes to Keep away Bugs.

A few weeks since, noticed an extract from
a London paper, recommending solution OF
aloes as an antidote against bugs on squoshes,
&c. Last spring l procured ten seeds OF the
celebrated Hubbard squash, for which paid
twenty-five cents. They were just nicely up
when the June frost came, but by blanketing
them kept four Of them alive. AS soon as
uncovered them the striped bugs attacked
them. | tried all the old remedies, SCOT, SUI
phur, &c., to no purpose. had about given
them up, when noticed an article from another
paper, stating that an English gardener recon-
mended solution of aoes 1.-TWO ounces of aloes
in gallon of warm water) as preventive. l
Immediately prepared some and applied it, and,
to my great qualification, had no more trouble
with the bugs. l also tried it on cauliflower,
cabbage and tomato plants, which were attack
cd by the small black bug, or cabbage flea, as l
have heard them called with equal success.
The slugs had about half devoured five or six
varieties of my roses | gave them good
sprinkling with it; the slugs vamosed forth
with. 1t is equally effcacious against that de-
tcstabe bed-fellow, the bed-bug. Scald your
bed-cords and wash your bedsteads in the solu-
ton. l intend this season to try it on a few
plumb trees, and see how the curculio likes it
The best way to apply it to plants, &C., is with
garden syringe.

Rebel Disappoin trncni in West

since tac rebels are leaking out 10 unrc-

our grief and sense of shortcoming is
greatly modified. We begin TO think bet
ter OF the operations thus far, lame as we
believe they have been.
Probably the worst disappointed peo-
pie in the world are the resident rebels Of
Northa es,crn Virginia. Nothing could
exceed the pcrtinacious confidence with
which for while in summer they held to
the belief that Lee would penetrate into

Gen. murey on the charges
Against 0hie and vireimi;,
Troops.

The Indianapolis Journal re ecntly pub
lishcd an article stating that at General
Milroy's battle on Allcghency Summit. on
the iath ult, ,"the Ohio and Virginia troops
ran like scared dogs Gen. Milroy, bet
ter known as the form,r Colonel Of the
Ninth Indiana. has written letter to the
Journal, saying that such statements do
the grossest injustice to his troops. lie
says:
Aporiion Of the 25th Ohio, probably
onc-third OF the drtachmont, together with
small portions fthc 18th Indiana and 23d
Ohio, did act most disg, aceJ fully, breaking
awsy snd leaving cnrly in the nction, and
could not be induced 10 return 10 the at
tack. ..,...
One excuse for lhia was the great want
of officers, Every officer of company
aud regimen, are greatly AMI imparatively
needed in battle to rally the men aud
Keep them TO their places.
Unfortunately, oil Of Col. Jones field
officers aud mauy Of his company officers
were absent on leave, and the Col had
the horculean tuck pf watching and rally
ing all parts Of the line himself, bot most
nobly did he perform this arduous task,
everywhere moving through the storm OF
bullets, and restoring order, with the cool
ness Of u veteran; and most nobly was he
assisted by the greater portion OF his com
pony oficcrs present. -
A portion Of the 2d Virginia, also iron,
want of officers, acted badly: probably
ono. third did not deploy into line when
the attack was made on their side, but be-
came confused, stnmpedcd and ran away
a few Of the Ninth Indiana running with
them. But the grt atcr portion of tl.e
Virginia detachment came into line oI
battle aud fought with Spartan GOODNESS
for near seven hours. The fact that oui

sing In the uction.) the Twenty-fnh O.

English Bonts ON oar lakes.

There is a prevalent impression that
in case OF probable wnr with England,
that country would, in advance, send a
large number Of gun-boats into our lakes,
and upon declaration OF hostiities would
prey upon our commerce, aud 10y waste
our lake cities. This is mistake. There
are treaty stipulatious between this coun-
try and England, limiting the number Of
Government armed vessels that either
country mny have on the lskes. Before
the treaty has become nnnullcd by war
we could manage, by h'avy srinamcnts
along the st. Lawrence, to blow up Eng
lish steamers and gun boats, unIcss they
were eused In heavy srmor like the wsr-
rior and La Gloirc. A lprgc feet ofpow-
eriul gun bouts, armed with the longest
range ride cannon is whut we most need
now. ssttt. ..
