TIE INVASION OF EAST TENNESSEE BIT UNION
TRoOPs The heSomsrsetcorrespondent OF the New
York Tribune, writing under date of January 8,
says:
l trust that no newspaper strafegists Will have
given vent TO feelings Of classification with the
failure OF troops to keep close 70 the heels Of
the enemy and pursue him into Tennessee. ANY
one knowing, as everybody here does that there
were no mssns Of crossing large bodies over the
Cumberland, (the boats used by the rebels being
burned and that all the roads In this section Of
the country have been rendered 90 absolutely i'm
passable by the almost continuous wet weather Of
the last ak weeks, as to render the transporta-
tion Of adequate supplies even TO this point i'm
practicable. and that the country south Of the
Cumberland II extremely rugged, poor, and eaten
out by the rebels, will not try 20 blame any
commander for not quickly improving the de-
feat Of the enemy oy an advance Into Ten
nessee. can, however, assure your readers that,
in spite Of all but insurmountable obstacles, in
a very few days, portions Of General Thomas's
left Yesterday al the head Of 900 men, First and
Second Tennessee, Sixteenth Ohio, Forty-ninth
Indiana, Third Kentucky, battalion Of Colonel
Hardy Kentucky Cavs Try, and Whitmore's Bat
tery) IN the direction Of the Cumberland Gap, via
London and Barboursville. His ultimate desti-
nation is Knoxville, Tennessee. Gen. Schoepf,s
brigade Q7th, 31st, 3sth Ohio, 12th Kentucky,
and HeWett's kentucky Battery will cross the
river to-morrow at Waitsboro, and march TO
Monticello. General Thomas will follow with
twelve more regiments Of infantry, some cavalry,
and four batteries, in few days. At Monticeuo,
Gen. Schoepf will turn to the left, and Gen.
Thomas to the right, and invade Tennessee over
two diverging roads.

THE LATE AWFUL CoLLIRRI ACCIDENT IN Eng
LLSD-On the 18th ult. one Of the most calami-
tous cnal-pit accidents ever recorded took place
near Hartley, few miles from Newcastle, Eng
land The pit was one hundred fathoms In depth,
and was continually subject to q vast infux Of
water, supposed TO be from the sea.
BY opening level into another pit, and the
erection Of powerful steam-engine to pump out
the water, il was at last kept under. Il appears
that the only entrance for the miners, as well as
eIit.for the coal, was through that shaft, which
had besn sunk through loose earth In great part,
and had 70 be planfsed all the way up.
The beam OF the pumping engine broke and
It's fall carried away the tmbers underneath,
whereupon the sides cayed In, and filed up that
portion Of the pit between the second level and
the bottom. This part had, indeed, an extra shaft
up which II is supposed the men would betake
themselves aud be out Of danger Of drowning.
But an equally great danger met them there from
the foul air.
IL 10 believed that this penetrated the apartment
where they took shelter, as animals let down the
shan subsequently expired in q short time, and
the men refused 70 venture their lives where
death appeared to stare them In the face. At the
latest datest dates, week had elapsed without
finding aught Of the 215 men known 70 be under
ground, and their fate Wa considered settled

Potato EineR.

According to the Massachusetts, Ploughman,
potato vines should be thrown into heaps and
burned. for the most plausible theory in regard
to the potato rot is, that it is caused by a very
minute insect, not visible to the eye. By
burning the vines, therefore, we may catch
millions Of them and send them where they
came from-for the vines are of but very little
value as manure, and their ashes are better
than their stems buried in the soil A very
reasonable supposition in regard to the rot is,
that 1t is caused by poisonous little insect, too
minute to be readily discerned, yet numerous
enough to cause destruction to that root which
is almost the sole food of millions of our race.
II, as We conjecture, small poisonous insect is
the cause, We can outfank and subdue him By
hre and water: Let the vines have the Arc ;
and let the tubers, at the time Of planting, be
dipped into potash water, to kin the little
knits that adhere to them.

New Method of Keeping Apples.

M r. Thompson, of Mifiiu county, Pennsyl-
varia, packs his choice apples in dry ground
plaster of Paris. They are so packed as not to
come in contact with each other The plaster
employed is the common ground plaster for
fertilizing-not the calcined, used for making
casts, models, DC. 1t costs from So to $40 a
ton, according to the locality, distance from
the quarries or seabord. The present retail
price in New York is absut $40 per ton. OF
course the plaster is just as good to SOW on
your land after using it to pack apples in. Its
effect on the apples is precisely the same as il
hermetically sealed. All the flavor is retained
until the moment they are taken out, and they
will keep an indefinite time. They should be
kept in q dry place.

Heua and Ruos

A farmer of our acquaintance refused to keep
hens, because he thought they did mere dam
age In the garden than they were worth. But
his neighbor's hens scratched in his garden
nearly as much as if he had hens Of his own,
notwithstanding that he was constantly driv-
ing them of. One day he erept cautiously
near some hens, thinking to catch one or two
and he watched their movements, and obsery-
ed that they were picking something from
around the roots Of pear tree. Looking clo-
ser, ne noticed they were destroying bugs.
Watching from day to day, he satisfied himself
that the hens destroyed myriads of bugs and
worms around his vines, dahlias, rosebushes,
and all mis- garden plants. At length, he con-
cluded that poultry, vexatious as they were to
him, were on the search for food, and since
they feed on what was injurious to his garden
he might put up with their trespasses. AT last
ne rejoiced in the possession of dozen or two
fowls, to dig and scratch on his own acsount

The War in Missouri.


THE FEDERAL ARMY CONCENTRATING FOR DE-
cIsIvE BLOW.
RoLLA, Feb. 9.-The news from the west in
dicates that preparations for a decided blow
against the enemy are nearly completed. The
forces for the movement are nearly all concen-
trated at the point whence II is intended to move
against the adversary. In a few days the whole
command will probably be on the march west
ward.
Gen. Sigel's and Gen. Asboth's divisions have
reached Lebanon, and Major Wrighps battalion
Of cavalry has removed fourteen miles west of
that point.
Gen. Davis brigade was reported to be crossing
the Usage river on Wednesday, and portion OF
IL was expected to arrive at Lebanon on Thurs
day.
one Of Major Wright's scouts reports that Gen.
Price has made speech to his troops, telling
them they were surrounded, and that they must
fight or surrender, and that they all decided to
fight. Price Ia said TO have been heavily rein.
forced from Arkansas, and to have collected large
supplies Of provisions on the road leading from
Springfield to Fayetteville.
Capt. Wood had arrived at WaynesvilIe with
"a rebel prisoners, including five Captains, taken
between Lebanon and Springfield.

Winter Protection for Flower Roots, &c.

winter Protection for Flewer Roots, &c.
BEDDING-our PLANTs.-If you wish to have
fine perennials and ANIMALS next spring, cover
your borders we'll with clean leaves, saw dust,
or chips and mould from your wood house.
Thus protected, seed that have dropped from
verbena, mignonette, balsims and other annu-
ais, will come Hp early and often give new
varieties. 1t is painful to walk up the paths
in door-yards, and see the bulbs of lillies, hya-
cinths and tulips, washed out Of ground or
only covered with half inch of earth. Do,
girls, remember them, and put on their night
caps and put them to bed for the winter.
Cover them up with something that will give
them food, and in the spring they will return
you thanks with glowing beauty and fragrance.
RosEs.-Many purchase rose trees, and set
them, expecting the first season to bring a pro-
fusion Of flowers, and their failure to do 30 Is
great disappointment. The nurseryman said
they were perpetual blosmers, and would bear
the winter in the ground, but the winter cuts
them down, and SO they cry out against the
florist who has deceived them, as they imagine.
The trouble is in themselves; surround your
rose trees with protection against ice and
snow, for their thorny stems hold more water
than many other plants. Layer them care
fully, and cover with straw or corn salks. If
too strong to be bent, put wisps of straw around
them and tie them with straw ropes. Then
you will have flowers on the old stocks early in
spring, and a continuation of bloom through
the season; but if suffered to freeze down to the
roots, half the season will pass land sometimes
the whole season. before they will be ready for
flowers. Girls can do this as well as boys
