The address of the occasion was to have
been delivered by Elder ROBERTS, of the Bap.
tist Church, but as tnat gentleman was moi
present, the only clergymen that were, proceed |
ed to address the audlence-Rcv. EDWARD AN |
DERsoN, opening with one of his fcrvid and
fluent but otf-hund efforts, that well prepared
the way for more carefully considered and |
extended view of the preservation, progress
ald oificc-work of the book of life. The oc-
casion was pleasant as well as profitable one.
CURCULIo.-To submit to the rayages of |
this pest year after year, and see the prolific |
crops of our green and yellow Cages, and our
Magnum Bonum plums without an exception
drop prcmaturely from the trees, requires |
more than ordinary grace and patience. We
have tried many ways TO save the crop but |
have found not one among the thOusund-and- !
one recipes that was not either tedious, uncertain
or wholly ineffective. To save this delicious |
fruit we have at length struck out upon our |
own resources and nInntnl tI,iS cn,uon a, ,,l,,,
which, years ago we tried with entire success |
This is to bag the trees with course mosquito |
netting, and gathering up the mouth of the |
bag about the body OF the tree, and tying in |
securely, The insect will not penetrate this, |
and the fruit ripens just rs freely under ii, as
without it. Care should be taken to get it on |
before the advent of the curculio. By head !
ing in the tree and keeping it within manag-
ing size, the expense is less for the purchase of
the material in the first place than the value of
the fruit, and the bags may be used successive
ly They may be removed as soon as the sea
son of the enemy is passed. and thereby, prob
ably made to last the longer. Having thus
treated the only two trees upon our premises,
we look forward with confidence to the ma
turing Of their crops and the enjoyment Of the
luxury when ripe.
ERRoR.-Wc are informed by Mr.. JOSIAH
ALLEN that we were in error about the de-
structon of the steamboat Walk-in- the Water.
She was not burned; but after making, as he
thinks, but one trip up the lake from Buffalo,
while off that port was overtaken by storm,
and came to anchor, with the intention of rid
ing it out, but, being a rather frail affair, was
unable to bear the strain, and gave evidence of
breaking in two. She was, therefore, run
ashore The boat that was burned was the
Lady Washington, Captain N. BRowN, belong
ing to Ashtabula, and having on board a num-
Der ofthe citizens of Ashtabula, some of whom
perlshed in the tiames-thc fire occurring on
the lake, somewhere between Erie and Buffalo.
