DISTURBANCES IN BALTIMORE, YKsTERDAY.-
We CLEAN the following particulars from the
Baltimore American:
The news of the defeat of the LIST MARYLAND
regiment and the death OF Col. Kenly caused a
high feeling of evaporation, ard this was in
the defeat and slaughter Of a regiment raised
among the citizens of Baltimore. The excite.
ment was intense and knock downs frequent. A
secesh butcher was knocked down on Saturday
night, and on Sunday Robert Morrow, Mr.. T. J +.
Warrington, member of the bar, and Bolivar
K. Daniels, Of the Baltimore bar, were badly
beaten. Mr.. Daniels was protected by the police,
and when he thanked them cries of chang him, -
chang him." resounded all around him. The
Independent Methodist Episcopal Church, at the
Assembly Rooms, suspended service, because an
attack upon them was threatened. Mr.. Passano,
residing on High street, near Lombard, was hit
by brick, inficting severe wound. A gentle
man named James Knox, Of the firm Of Knox
Co, shipping and commission merchants on
Smiths wharf, while passing along North street,
got into difficulty and was Immediately at
tackled by sew raj In the crowd. A proposition
was made to hang him near the Chesapeate
Bank, but the police rescued him.
There was but few fights in the afternoon, and
those OF little consequence. Shortly after five
O'Clock, Samuel hindes, Esq one Of the police
comm isson mounted a box, near he corner
Of Calvert and Baltimore streets, and made
spirited address to the crowd, urging those COM
posing II 70 pay respect to the law by quietly dis
persng to their homes. In compliance with his
request the crowd dispersed, and quiet reigned
once more on the street A number OF arrests
were made during the day.
Major General Dix sent for Marshal Van Nos
trand and asked II bis force was sufficient to
preserve the peace Of the city, and received an
answer in the affirmative. He assured the Mar
shall that such proceedings should not be tolerated
in his department, ard that If necessary he would
call out the military. The aspect Of the city TO-.
day will determine his decision.

Winter covering Strawberry Beds

AN experiences e%ov'a that in Gardens
at the north, Strawberries are benefited
by little protection in winter. The al
terattonS of temperature do more than
any amount of mere cold In Maine,
Canada and Vermont, where the snow
often lies from November until April,
there is less need of artificial protection
than in New York, Pennsy Ivana, and
Connecticut, where the snow comes and
goes continually. In dry sandy soils, too
there is less harm from frost than in hea-
Wy, clayey lands ; in the latter, the plants
are often thrown out and killed by the
freezing and thawing Of single winter
or open spring.
But what is The best material for such
protection? The material with which
nature covers her strawberry patches i.
leaves. And if one will use leaves, and
then take the trouble to cover the leaves
also, to keep the winds from blowing them
AWAY, nothing can be better. We have
used them, covering them with old pea,
brush and the canes of last years rasp-
berries, &c; but the winds Of an open
winter would blow them off from many
plant. We have used straw, but some
times mice would burrow in it and nibble
off the crowns of the plants. Coarse
littery manure dos very well, but it
brings 10 weeds, and SO makes work for
next summer. Sawdust answers a rood
purpose, but it often brings in grubs.-I
Old tan bark suits US about as well As
anything. 1t is our practice TO apply it
late in the fall, covering the leaves about
one inch, aud then removing part Of it
in the spring, leaving the rest for a nulch
in summer. We lave used il now for
six years, and find no serious fault with
it. 1t is perfect protection in winter.
harbors no vermin, brings in no weeds,
but rather keeps them down. Ii is one
of the best equalizers of temperature tue
year around, in sumner saving the ne
c'ssity Of artificial watering. As to its
aHording the plants a specific manure
(tartaric acid,) as some assert, it is IN
necessary TO express any opinion.-Am-
srfcan Agricultmist.

Raising Turkeys.

Why is it that at leas. three out of fou
farmers do not succeed in raising turkeys
With all other poultry they are success
full, but turkeys are abandoned by mos
farmers as too uncertain and troublesome
to bother with Now this is all wrong
for once a person gets a knack of raising
these fine fowls, they can raise just a,
many as they please. So far as | an
concerned, | generally raise more turkey.
than | know what to do with, aud have
turkeys now left over from last year that
will be eaten as we want them. Last
winter we fairly reveled in roast turkey
gave quite number away-sold 9th.
ers, have some, beside the breeders, still
left. My plan of raising is simple, and
will give il in as few words as possible
First, never allow turkey TO set
until about the middle of May. They
will commence to lay early in April, but
take their eggs away as fist as laid,
and keep them until they lay their second
batch, which will be finished about the
second or third week in May. | then
give her some eighteen or twenty eggs
and let her Set. Along about the middle
Of June she will be off. lthen take her,
put her and her young on an Old barn
floor, or other oul-bu'IdlnS that is dry,
and feed on curd and cracked corn.-
Curd is the best fora continual feed when
the farmer has plenty, but cracked corn
or coarse meal, mixed with IobSercd milk,
will answer abou! equally as well, Af,r
they have been in doors for two or three
days, or long enough to get fairly on their
Iegs-ior the turkey is the weakest Of all
