"a The following sharp practice OF a
boy ten years old, son of Mrs. Horine, &C.
Cured last week in Barre county. The lad
aud his mother were riding colt on the
open prairie, when they were met by a
squad of secesh from CRANKY, who ordered
them to dismount. The leader placed his
own saddle on the colt, mounted the latter,
and was thrown off quicker than thought.
Boy exclaimed " good" at which manifesto
ton secesh swore roundly. The boy then
appeased their wrath by saying " "Gentle-
men, there is a curl on that colts neck by
which you can always know him." They
desired the boy to point out the mark, when
the little fellow stepped up to his favorite
animal, grasped the name with one band,
aud with the other slipped off the bride.
The colt, as if understanding the joke, " ske-
daddled" over the plain, leaving the captors
perfectly astonished at being thus SO easily
outWitted

STRANGE AFFA1R-A gentlemanli in Lon.

STRANGE EAEFAIR.--A9 gentlemaniin Lon
dor, who had not lived long in his house,
went TO the seaside for week or two leav-
ing everything safe, and his furniture
locked up in the various rooms. When he
returned it was late at night, and he could
not fnd his house. II had absolutely been
sold, pulled down, and carried away in his
absence. The assistance of the police was
obtained, when it was found that a person
of fashionable exterior had called upon q
furniture dealer, and upon some pretext
that he wished to emi3nate, asked him TO
value the furniture in the house. An esti-
mate was given, a bargain was struck, and
everything taken away. The thief then
went to bricklayer, and inventing a story
that he wished to build larger house upon
the site, sold the brick and materials for
what they would fetch. The astonishment
of the owner, fresh from sea-bathing, who
left house and furniture, and on his return
could find neither, was caution"

Col BILLY WILSON ASKED TO RESIGN
The latest information from Fort Pickens is
that serious difficulties have arisen between
the staff and line officers of the regiment
and Col. Wilson.
They are said to be greatly dissatisfied
with his abilities as military man, and ac-
cuse him of conduct highly culpable in a
commanding officer.
On the 18th ull the officers, with two ex-
ceptions, waited upon and requested him to
resign the command of his regiment.
It is said that he refused to listen to their
request. The officers seem determined to
resign from the regiment themselves, or
compel him to withdraw.
Should the Coloneley of the regiment be-
come vacant, the officers propose to tender
it to United States officer.

DIsAPPoINTED.-Some of those who are
SO very anxious that the South should have
its rights, were very much elated at the
news by grapevine Telegraph from Ev-
ansville via Phillipstown, to the effect that
there had been fight in Kentucky, in
which the Federals were badly whipped,
and were rushing into Evansville by the
thousands, perfectly panic struck. The news
was expressed through the neighborhoOd
with lightning rapidity, bat GLasi poor
Yorick,D0 unfortunately battle hasn't
come of, and the Federals are not defeated,
and they are not rushing into Evansville by
the thousands. When the real battle is
fought, the news will be of different char

love their country. GrayViLIe Independent.

haps not generally known that black
pepper (not red is a po' son for many in
sects. The following simple mixture is
said to be the best destroyer Of the COM
mon house fly extant:-Take equal pro,
portions of fine black pepper fresh ground
and sugar, say enough of each to cover a
ten cent piece, moisten and mix well
with spoonful of milk "a little cream is
better); keep that in your room and you
will keep down the flies. One advantage
over other poisons is, that it Injuries moth

the air and never die in the house-the
windows being open.

THE BE Z MOTH.

Mr. Kaden, of Mayence, placed a second
swarm in a new and clean hive which had
just been made for the purpose of his ex-
pertinent, and set it remote from every
other hive on his premises. Daily, at dusk
as soon as the beesceased to fly, he carried
this hive into the dwelling house, and de-.
posted it in a chamber where moths or
miliers could not have access to it. On
the eighth day, he drummed out the bees,
took out the combs Containing pollen and
honey, but no eggs or breod and placed
them under bell glass, so adjusted that
no insect could enter. In less than three
weeks the combs were perfectly alive with
worms. As the bee moth docs not Ay

removed every evening TO prevent its en-.
trance at night, and the combs were all
newly built, whence did these worms origi-
nate ?-I5id.

bake till we'll done in pans an inch deepiip

For MAKING LARD.-Cut the fat into
pieces iaaout two inches square; filling a
vessel holding about three gallons with the
pieces put in pint of boiled lye made
from oak or hickory ashes, and strained
before using boil gently, over slow fire,
until the cracklings have turned brown !;
strain and set aside to cool. BY the above
process you will get more lard, a better
article, and winter than by any other pro
cess.
