Il have just read :. treatise on tobacco

many troubles in s-owing the crop IL from
the common brown cut worm. SO Destructive
TO cabbage plants when first sen out. and
corn when young. Now. sure preventive
from the worm eating the cabbage plant is
to procure hickory leaves from our common
hickory trees. aud wrap leaf around each
pant when set out, SO that some of the leaf
will BE- above ground and some el,w, having
the middle of Inc leaf al oat even with the
ground. This is easily and quickly done,
as 10 tying is necessary. / have tried this
plan for over twenty-five years in raising
cabbage in ground that was as full of cut
worms as it well ccsld be. never lost a
cabbage when thus protected, but always.
did when this preventive was not applied.
This doing so with the cabbage, why not so
with the tol,acco plant? TIE anne worm
being destructive to toth should think the

l. this season, and let the public know the
result through your paper.''

FREEpMEN'S AF EAIRS-sINGULAR PRE-
JUDGE OF FREGD PEOPLE AGAINST
NORTHERN STATES.

Capt w. +. Spurgin, Superintendent of
Freedmen for the District of Columbia, has
forwarded his report to the Freedmen's Bu-
reau for the month of October. During the
month 100 applications were received for SER
wants, all from the District and Maryland
Many applications We're received from the
North, but owing to prejudice existing among
the freed people, lnculcated while in slavery,
against the Northern States, they were not
filled. Fitty-fives males and forty-six females
Were furnished with homes during the month
In thls number there was many families, hay-
ing several children each. During the same
period, lO0rations Were issued daily at the soup
house, corner of New Jersey avenue and +
street south. From this one hundred ratious.
the average number receiving assistance daily
was p men, 100 women, and So children Total
number assisted daily, DIT Most of these peo-
pie nave been drawing rations for months, and
are really destitute. Some are compelled to
apply temporarily for assistance on account of
sickness. Rations are furnished them when
found deserving and withdrawn as soon as
the necessity for using them ceases.
