Herdsgrass.

The Portsmouth IN. H } Journal gives
the following account of this well-knOwn
grass:
HeFdsgrass originated in Portsmouth,
and was fret found by Herd, one of the
forty eight men sent over by John Mason
10 make the settlement here in 1854. He
discovered this grass near the meadow west
OF the mansion Of the late Levi Woodbury..
It at once received his name, and was after
ward extensively cultivated at Dover, or in
the neighborbood, by man whose first
name was Timoihy 1--WE think his siruame
was Perkins Hence the rames of limo
thy or Herdsgrass. Such has been the To-
cal tradition.

Book-Farming.

mind, but leave the body to take care OF
itself; and education often costs its posses

protect Trees From Rabbit.

Thousands of trees are injured every fall
and winter by rabbits. The loss to farmers
and fruit-growers by their depredA lions is
immense. Many resolve, when they see
their losses, that they will guard against
them in the future; but when the autumn
returns. other cares press upon them, and
the rabbits are forgotten till other trees are
ruined. 1t is painful to us to See fine,
young tree, we'll established 10 the orchard,
destroyed by these pests. It is an easy
matter 10 guard against them. They don't
like flesh or blood They have an aversion
to animal matter. II the bark Of the tree
is smeared with it they will not mo!est it..
Consequently. about. the middle of NOvem-
Der, il farmers will take piece Of liver, or
flesh of any kind, or Hood. and rub the
bodies Of the trees for a foot and half high
and repeat the operation about the middle
OF January, not tree will be touched
This is the cheapest and best preventive
1t does not injure the tree. The remedy is
effectual, and should be at once applied.

citing rumors of trouble at st. Ber-

groes killed. One of the latter was
member of the Metropolitan Police

At night the negroes congregated
and proceeded in body TO the house
of Spanish banker, killed him, his
SON and sister-in law. They after
wards set fire to his house. which was
burned to the ground His wife es
capped with child in her arms.
Two other. houses are reported
burned, in one of which the four chill
dren are, said to nave been killed.
The rumors are various and conflict
ing as to the extent of the outrages.
Many of the white inhabitants ofPar-
ish deserted their houses last night
and fed to this city Early this
morning, upon the first notification OF
trouble, Gen. Buchanan ordered a
company of infantry to march down
the river. Later In the day he dis
patched another company of the first
infantry in the same direction, on the
steamer Ella Moose, instructing the
officers in charge to arrest all ring
leaders who could be found.
