His brains were oozing wkile he spoke yet he knew

A correspondent Of the Charleston Courier
writes of Morsan's last raid:-
"As in all other battles, however, we are called
upon TO mourn some of our bravest and best men.

aud calling to some comrades who were near, said
"here are some few cartridges, you will need them"
These were about the last words spoken by the
poor fellow. Another poor fellow, who shot
through the intestines, as the Surgeon approached
him, said: "Doctor, don't mind me; my wound is
fatal, go to those whom you can assist" Another

about II o'clock p. M, they run into by the

ring the collision, the cars fearfully crushed
and twelve negroes killed-several having been
scaded to death by the hot steam from the broken
engine. We learn from the manager that by ex-
traordinary exertions, and through many serious
difficulties, these negroes We're saved from the
thieving Yankees, who were Tying waste and rob-

RUsr IN WuEAr-It bas beon long kpown,
and the idea acted on among the Spanish sgricul.
turalists in Texas and Mexico, that the rust in
wheat is produced by showers Of heavy dews fol-
lowed bya hot sun, during that period Of vegeta-
ton wheu the wheat is in bloom and milk. The
effect of the son upon the wet plant produces The
rust. To avoid this result, two men cake heavy
rope, twenty or thirty feet long, or longer aod
walking at that distance apart, draw il over the
wet graip, thereby shaking of the drops Of rain
or dew, and thus prtvent the usual effect OF the
sun upon the plant.
After heavy dew the rope should be drawn
over the wheat early in the morning. Wheat
planted on his, or windy positions, generally es-
capes rust; while in low fat ground, where there
is less wind, the rust takes effect. Smut II prob
ably produced in the same manner
