greater disinfectant and preventative than
had been supposed. Rev DR.. Osgood has
exhibited to the editors of the Springfield
Mass Republican, a outlet taken from a
liam which had been kept eight years com
pletcly imbedded in that preparation, and
which seemed as sweet as if it had been
cured only single season. -..-a ..-

Hoes AND CuRCUiLo.-It is the practice
of many to allow their hogs to run in the
orchard and gather up all fruit as it fall.
In this way the insect is not allowed to
leave the fallen fruit and perpctuatc its
species in the ground. If no hogs arc
about, the fruit should all be picked up and
destroyed before the insect leaves it.

TIMOTHY MEApows.-Care should be ia
ken in cutting timothy not to cut too close,
as the roots Of this grass are dubious, and
if cut too close or feed too close, the top of
the bulb is injured, and the wet causes it
ION to decay and die. Timothy meadow,
should always he rolled in the spring, TO
secure as even a surface as possible.

One-third were in the Scum d on TUESDAY
. one-third in the Roads, and ne -thiro out

vessels over the Swash.
The Yankees are anxious to get pill OTIS for
the Core Sound and Neuse river, mo neihg
the opinion that Roanoke, Edenton, WASH
ington, and perhaps other places e. asst Oh
Eewbern W i'll be attacked.
1t is rendered certain that Newborn VIII
be visited, as the Yankee vessels were lg 1T
ering and it could not be to attack any 9th er
place.
These gentlemen also learned from the
Yankees that they had lost three vessels and |
three men since reaching Hatteras also that |
New Orleans is to be attacked simultaneously |
with the attack on the Sound.
The effect of the storm on Thursday and
Friday upon the Yankees must have been |
very severe. Portsmouth was completely |
covered with water. Nothing relating to the /
condition of the Yankees has been learned |
later than Tuesday.
The Goldsborough Tribune, of Tuesday !
last, says GA gentleman who left Ports |
mouth on Sunday morning, states that, the /
day previous, ninety-fve vessels could be
seen at Hatteras from the lighthouse Ten
Or fifteen appeared to be aground, and some
twenty vessels were in the Sound. Only one
steamer had steam up, and she APPEARED to
be trying to get stranded vessel off,"
Some pilots who were released, and left
Hatteras on Tuesday, report that they were
told that Yankee regiment was missing,
and they believed the regiment was lost.
A vessel, with 100 persons aboard, went
ashore at Chickamicomico.
The Tribune says the Burnside feet is now
on our coast, and their object is to assail US,

Wilmington Island, commanding the channel
of the river.
Commodore Tattnalrs feet conveyed two
steamers and fat towards Fort Pulaski,
with provisions. The enemy opened FIRE,
and a battle ensued, which lasted forty min

The provision boats and steamer Sampson,
returning, were also fred npon, and the lat
ter was slightly damaged The fort is now
fully provisioned for six months.
A letter from an officer of the fort says:
aThe enemy cannot take the fort by an
attack
The Yankees are engaged in removing the
obstructions in the channels, but there are
other defences yet to pass. The. people of
Savannah are firm aud confident Of their
ability to defend the city. - !.
