Farmer-''I have for the last four years prov
ed to my satisfaction that the Wild Pepper,

result it has had with me. -Four years ago

with one since, nor am at present, while my

confident that any person who is troubled
with these pests, could easily get rid Of them
by gathering good supply of the mint and
placing it around the walls or base Of their

Nothing definite was concluded on in the
Senatorial Caucus on Monday, the matters
under consideration being referred to the
Senate portion of the Reconstruction Com
mittee. Nearly all the Republican, Sem
ators agree that the third section of the
Constitutional Amendment proposed by
the Reconstruction Committee will be
stricken out and the Acknowledgement of
specific classes of rebels be substituted:
and these classes will be as much restricted
as possible. Tt Is thought that the, second
section will also be modified, basing repre-
sentation on voters instead of numbers, as
proposed by the Committee. 1t is further
believed that the Amendment will be so
framed as to admit of separate State ac-
ton. Several other propositions were dis
cussed before the Caucus, which was to
