How TO DESTROY THE CURCULIo AND I'M
PROVE MALARIoUS ATMospAEIRME'I,Co ~.
Gus 4, Hardee, of Jacksonville, Florida, CLAIMS
to have made some very interesting experiments
and discoveries in the humiliation OF the cur
cn)io and other troublesome insects by concuS,
sion. as we'll as driving away the poisonous ana
malarious vapors Of the air through the same
agency At q recent meeting OF prominent
Citizens in Jacksonville, Florida interested in
this subject, Colonel Hardee explained his dis
covery as follows: -. A.
nerEct humiliation of the horticulturist pest
known as 'curculio.' My attention, early last
spring, was called to the fact that in the VI
cinity Of the new railroad which ruus immedl-
utey through my orchard. the curcullo was
being driven to the extreme end of my orchard.
1t is well-known to all pomologist that this
enemy does its work at night. The cars pass
ing through my orchard (which is situated Just
one mile from the depot in your ety. blows It's
whistle in passing just after nighttall and again
in the morning before daylight. | was lead to
the belief that the noise of the whistle, or jar
ring, was the cause of their disappearance from
,he vicinity of the railroad. To satisfy myself
placed two pounds Of powder in the hollow
Of a live.oak stump Immediately 10 the vicinity
WQere lHey pEOWlscu lllC CIti.0 ueoli oS'iou VI
some pluns, peaches, &c. This powder was
fired off one calm night, and it not only. des-
troyed every curculio, but every winged insect
in my entire orchard. My attention was called
to the marvellous growth of my peach trees and
vines on the line Of the railroad. could IN
no way account for this until | discovered the
wonderful effect that the two pounds OF powder
had on my other trees.
Il claim, gentlemen, that conclusion is the
greatest fertilizer known. How it affects the
air, soil. or tress know not that leave tor
more scientific minds; only know the fact. |
claim that conclusion will destroy all animal
cules and render sickly localities perfectly
healthy. 1t is we'll known that during the late
war yellow fever or no other contaglon made
their appearance in southern cities, and it Is
also known that Grants entire army of $4,000
men enjoyed perfect health on the Big Black
during the sickly season of 1864. This, here,
tofore, has not been satisfactorily accounted
for. | claim that the Yanks are indebted to
king gunpowder for their healthfullness during
the late wicked war. Conclusion is the great
agent of nature in purifying the atmosphere.
1t is well known by physicians the effects pro-
duced by thunder during the sickly seasons
and it is well-established fact that during the
tall of 1857, when the yellow fever was raging
in Jacksonville, there was very little or nc
thunder. [ could give you, gentlemen, an &C.
count of several experiments have made be-
sides these have alluded to- but l will not
occupy your time. l only request that you
will act so rs to bring this discovery before the
public.

One evening as Theodore Hook sat at the
piano-forte making rhylning couplets on the
names of the assembled company, some one
observed that he would not easily find cor
responding rhyme to the name of gentleman
who had just returned to the drawing-room at;
ter temporary absence His name asked
Hook s'Rosenhagen," was the reply. The
master of impromptu insanity sang
But wha' shall we say about Mr.. Rosc.ln-agan
Who pops his nose out and then pops MS nose IN
again ??
On the occasion Of a tax collector making his
appearance, Hook Immediately said
Here comes Mr.. Wynter. surveyor of taxes;
advise YOU to give him whatever he axes,
And that, too without any nonsense or num-
Inery;
For, though his Names Wynter, his actions are
summery.
Jones, who wears his pocketbook on The left,
not only does not let his right hand know what
his left hand doeth. but he goes further. He
dose not let his left hand do anything for fear
his right hand might know 1t.
I've three cents left, said loafer, so I'll

you buy said a friend. curious to learn the
