TOBACCO GROWN WITHOUT sucKER1Na !
"a Packhans, Esq Of Prestonyllle1 Carroll o.
county, Kentucky, furnishes the following d.
rections to tobacco growers who would save
the labor and trouble ofsuckering their plants
several times during the season:
cat the time when suckering is about ne
cessary, provide yoarsself With small tin oil
can, the timer making the spout OF it with q
sharp point similar in shape to the blade OF
a penkuife then filing your can with sol
luton of crude potash, go through the motion
of suckering by breaking Of sgeh as yop see'
and then with the point Of knife make an y: in
cisien down obliquoly into the gtalk' Just at
the spot between the stem alryal the stalk, where
the sucker would grow, dropping into the IN
cison so made one drop Of the potash, This
is the whole secret. Ii will not injure the val,
liable leaf. check its growth, or hurt the plant
but it will kill the germ Of the future sucker
With practice q person can doctor plant as
above stated with as much celebrity as one can
do the suckering and will thus save the trou
bic of going over and suckering millions OF
plants every year

PAY Your SMALL DEBTs.-Pay your
small debts You do not know how much
good is frequently accomplished by adopting
this principle. It was honest old Ben Frank
lin, We believe. who as matter of expert
mcnt, followed up small amount which he
paid to tradesman. IH very little while
he ascertained that the money paid the trades
man had passed frqqm band to baud until the
number Of bills Of nearly similar amount set
tied With it reached some fifteen or twenty
It may not be possible to do as Franklin did,
and trace up tho history of small amount
Of money in the way of debt paying; but it
may be set dswn as o fixed fact that the
prompt payment of small debts is the initia-
tive step towards paying cash for everything.
Generally speaking these small qchts are due
to persons Who need all tie littlo capital they
can command To such, they are of immense
Importance and it may be said of the person
who allows these trifling obligations to remain
unpaid while having tho means to discharge
them, that lie is not, in the truo sense
Of the word, an honest man, unless, by ex-
press contract, time Of payment has
been fixed, and that time not arrived. Pay
your small debts, and your big ones too II
you Would be happy and comfortableslcep sound
| ly, cat heartily, and enjoy that peace of mind
which only men with good consclences are
supposed to enjoy, pay your small debts, cs-

Hunters Annals of Rural Bengal.

Mr.. w. w. Hunter, of the British civil
service in Bengal, is the author of the
most interesting and accurate account Of
the native people of that region which
has yet appeared. He is one of the few
officers of the foreign government among
them who have studied them with pro-
found and intelligent sympathy, and
applied to their languages, religion,
social order and history the sane methods
of investigation which have been so
fruitful in similar studies among the
natives of Europe. In consequence of
this the volume before us, which claims
to be only a survey Of the peoples on
the western frontier Of lower Bengal, at
the close Of the last century, is 10 reality
one of the most important contributions
ever made to the knowledge which the
civilized world possesses of the subject
races Of India in general. All the ques-
tious, whether Of philology, ethnology or
public economy, which are suggested by
the inquiry, are met broadly, and with a
fullness Of the knowledge quite .sur-
prisiug in "a work writteH in jung gle,
eight thousand miles distant from Euro
peau libraries, amid the changes and
exactious of an Indian career" Page
ID
But il anything is lost by this isola-
ton, much more is gained. Not only
has The author derived valuable informa-
ton from native records never before
consulted BY sn historian. but the fresh
ness and vigor given to his descriptions
and narrative By having the scenes CT
them before his eyes as he writes, would
alone recompenle the reader for the alb
seaee Of msch recondite learning, which
might be useful Mr.. Hunters style is
charming; though not faultlsss, it is
clear. direct, thoughtful and eloquent;
and bis matter Is 90 full Of varied inter-
