The EverIastipg Curcuiio.

We fiud the following in the Western
Rural:
"Fruit-growers should boar in mind
that plums May be protected from the
curculio By Swinging thetrees twice q
week With lime water of the consisten-
CIV of very thin whitewash, from the
time the fruit is the size OF. o pea until
the first of july" We hope frnit-grow-
ers will remember no such thing, or
they will have their labor for, their
pains. Lime-water or livery thin white
wash" will no more interfere with the
operations of the eurculio than by at
tempting to mesmerize them.
The horticultural editor in the same
number says-"We haveexamined plum
trees which are covered with blossoms
aud could not fud a single curculio on
them" Of course you couldn't. They
don't make their appearance until the
young plum is there, and they never
disturb plum after the stone begins to
harden. Their obiecr is the propagation
OF their species. They make an incision
crescent-shaped, raise mp the skin, de-
posit their eggs, and start Tor another
plum. The eggs hatch in a few days
and the yopng grub aims for the heart
of the fruit on which it feeds for some
time. This has the effect to destroy the
vitality of the plun and it falls to the
ground, whence the insect, when it is
ready, leaves it and goes into the
ground. In this region it attacks the
cherries in the same way, frequently
destroying from ene-half to three
fou rlhs of the erop.-GGmantO'rn 1ete'

Awfnl Casualty in VermOni-Drow 70
ing Of Two Ladies.

The Bellows Falls Timcs contains the
following details of the fearful death of
two young women at Caveudish, Yer.
mont, on Monday evening of last week,
the general particulars regarding which
sad event have been already published:
Mrs. Albina Knights, wife OF Horatio
Knights, and Miss Ellen NJ. Cary, both
operatives in James Felton's wooden
mill, proposed the exploit of crossing
the mill pond IN BOAT, the water being
high and the current strong from so
large flow over the dam. Being ready
to start, they urged other friends to
ride with them, who not only refused
but earnestly urged them not to make the
att mpt. They did not, however, share
III the iears of their friends, and pushed
OH their boat, waving their haudker-
chiefs in salutation, and bidding good
bye" TO those on shore. Then followed
one of the most painful and thrilling
scenes that ever occurred in Vermont.
They had gone but short distance
when IL Was perceived that the current
was carrying them down, but they did
not appear TO notice 1t. Nearer and
nearer they approached the dam till
Miss Cary rose aud jumped ont of the
boat. The strong current immediately
carried her over. Mrs. Knight remained
in the boat, and just before it made the
fatal plunge, seemed TO faint and fall
back "a it went over, carrying her To a
watery grave with her friend, or posi-
bly, she may have thrown herself into
tho bottom of the boat, with a possible
hope that in that coalition SHE nigh es-
cape. Both were seen ence several rods
below the dam, the current carrying
them rapidly down into the rocky gorge
knows Us Cavendish Falls. The feel.
ings of those who witnessed this scene
who We're utterly powerless to render
assistance cannot be described

From the Chicago Post, 9TH
singular Suicide-A Young Wife DC.
nIroNs Herarlf by Talking Poison.

About two o'clock yesterday after
noon we'll dressed young woman was
seen TO enter vacant lot on Sheldon
street, between Washington and Madi-
son, and when about the centre, TO ST.
upon the ground and commence writing
on a sheet of paper which she held on
her knees. Though rather strange
proceeding, it was thought to be some
lunatic's freak, and no further notice
was taken oft. Officer Simpson, OF the
Second Precinct. half an hour later, saw
the woman is ing on her face upon the
ground. Raising her, she was found TO
be speechleSs, and apparently dying. A
note was lying at her side, which gave
a clue to the mystery. Calling We
hicie 70 his aid, Simpson took the wo-
man to the Union street station and a
physcian was called in, but despite all
efforts the woman died about three
hours after. The letters which were
found by her, seem to have bean writ
ten after the poison. which evidently
caused her death, was taken, and were
as follows:
DEAR HUSBAND: II wish my chill.

On the inside page, in nearly illegi-
HE hand, was written:

Transversely, and on the edge of the
page, in words almost impossible To de-
cipher, was this:
"I came here to be alone. and because
could not get any further. Please do
not destroy this"
The woman, who was about twenty
five years OF age and rather progresses
ing, was ascertained TO be the wife of
officer Arthur Bell, Of the first precinct,
who was appraised of the melancholy
event on coming To the station early
this morning. The couple have been
married about ten mouths, the lady be-
ing then a gay widow with several lit
tie children. The cause is probably
some domestic trouble, Mrs. Bell hav-
ing fallen out with her husband about
a month ago, and having gone to live
ut her sisters, Mrs. Harrington, who
is referred to in the letter.
