fusely. There are several insects that
work more or less upon the leaves. OF
these, the most destructive is a small
slug or worm, that eats the varnisb that
nature has spread upon the upper side
of the leaf, causing bushes TO look often
much as though the fire had snged
them. These little enemies should be
met and conquered at once, as soon as
they make their appearance. A sure
remedy is pulverized white hellebore.
Put about two ounces into six gallons
of water, and with brush broom give
the bushes sprinkling, bending them
so as to wet the leaves on both sides. II
may possibly require two or three ap.
plications. BY this experiment I find
1t easy to protect several hundred bushes
and have them in blossom-that is my
perpetual blossomers-a the season
until the frosts Of autumn intervene

IIEALTHTUL DRINKS. For the ben
eft of our readers, who are compelled
to labor outdoors in the scorching rays
of the sun, we append below a few Of
the more nutritious drinks. The prac.
tice of indiscriminate drinking is most
injurious, and should be avoided. The
safest of all drinks is cold water, little
at time, taken at short intervals. Ice
water is dangerous, when taken by those
who are not taccustomedt toit. Buttermik
is safe and healthy drink. A pint of
molasses to gallon of cold water makes
good drink, as also does lemon to a
half gallon of water, with cupful of
sugar added. A thin Cruel made of
corn or oats also slakes the thirst and
strengthens the body. a pint of grapes,
garden berries or currents, TO a gallon
of cold water, makes n healthful and
agreeable drink. The best of all drinks
for the healthy or the invalid is pure
cold water. Cold water applied to the
head, abates thirst and refreshes. a
piece of silk placed equal distances be-
tween the head and the top of the hat,
is protection against the sun.

DYSPEPSIA AND ITS REMEDIES.-
DR.. a. O'Leary lectured recently at the
Cooper Institute, New York, on "Dys-
pepsa." Indications of disturbance of
the stomach are, he said, caused by the
fermentation of food. No one should
eat cabbage boiled with meat, or onions
with steaks as they create biliousness.
Cabbage is one of the best articles of
food when cooked properly. 1t should
be boiled in pure water. AS cure for
dyspepsia he recommended teaspoon
full of carbonate of soda, which neu-
tralizes the acid in the stomach. The
causes ofdyspepsia are the use of butter,
grease, gravy, and eating too hastily.
| Dyspepsia does not come from large eat.
| ing. Those afflicted with it should take
a short sleep after dinner. The liver
has much to do with dyspepsia. When
ever the white of the eye shows n yell
low tinge, it proceeds from the liver.
Tenderness in the pit of the stomach is
an indication Of diseased liver. A slight
pain under the right ribs and back of
the shoulder also proceeds from the
liver. Those who are prone to the dis
ease should not eat too much, nor enjoy
too much heat-too much heat tends to
enlarge the liver. A fruit and vegeta'
BILE diet Is the best that can be adopted
but persons of weak constitution
should add meat once day, though
not oftener, and bread, if properly
made. Persons who are afflicted will
dyspepsia should not use calomel.

How TO HAVE FINE RosEs.-The
rose, because of its beauty and fragrance
is the queen of flowers. For success in
their cultivation, bushes grown upon
their own roots should be procured.
They should be planted in rich mellow
soil, where the sun shines, all the day.
Once year they should be pruned, and
a coat ofmanure be put upon the ground
around them. This treatment causes q
large amount of new wood to form and
as the flowers are on this young wood
the bushes consequently blossom pro-

THE COURTS.
sixth District COurt,

There was case called up in this court
yesterday in which 4. Merle. u broker on
st. Charles street, is plaintiff, and Antoine
Dubuclet, defendant.
This is case where the State Treasurer
is sued for damages in not paying State
warrant when there was money in the treas
ury. Defendant excepted that there being
penalty affixed by law for non payment Of
a warrant (four-fold its amount) no action
for special damages could lie.
Judge Cooley said he thought there~xas a
point i'll the exceptions until he heard the
opinion of Judge Martin, quoted by counsel
tor plaintiff in u case precisely similar; and
AS Judge Cooley put it, "lio rather thought
Judge Martin knew something about law"
For himself, he did not agree with the
counsel for defendant that the office of
Treasurer was difficult ono. lie had
nothing in til" world to do but to pay ont
money. if he had it. You can not get blood
out of a turnip, said the Judge, and if the
Treasurer didn't have any money there was
all end Of it. The Treasurer had NO dis
cretion whatever. He had simply to re-.
ceive with one hand and pay out with the
Other.

MEMPHIS. January 6.-The steamer II
5. Turner, from New Orleans to Louisville.
struck Il snag and sunk to her boiler deck,
at the head of Island Sixteen, Wednesday,
night. No lives were lost. She lies
straight. and is close to the shore. and can
doubtless be raised. This was her second
trip in the Ohio river trade. Her cargo Is u
partial loss.
The above dispatch reached here ycste-.
day. and caused considerable CONSERVATION
among the shippers and those who had
friends as passengers on board. The ru,nOr
frs; reached New Orleans that the steamer
Wade Hampton had burned up. This was
contradicted by the arrival of that steamer.
all 80. X Next the rumor enlarged so
that the steamer II. S. Turner was reported
blown up and one hundred lives lost. This
also has been contradicted by the receipt of
the above dispatch.
The Henry S. Turner Is large sidcwheel
steamer, OF about fourteen hundred tons
capacity, and has always been considered i
money making boat.
She has piled durin. the previous two
years in the Missouri river trade. from ST.
Louis to Omaha. Recently she was sold By
her owners. the Yore Brothers. to Captain
William j. Rusk and others. who bought
her for the regular trade between New Or
leans and Louisville. She had just COM
pleted one round trip, and was on her see
ond trip at the time of the disaster. She
left this port on the twentv-seventh Of De-
ccmber. bound for Louisville, with ! iuu
cargo OF sugar and molasses and seventy
three casks of imported English chains.
The H. S. Turner was valued ut $4,000,
and was insured for $4,000, in Cincinnati
and St. Louis Offices. Her cargo. which is
valued at about $4,000. is doubtless in
sured under shippers open policy. The
Turner was one of the best boats in the
Louisville and New Orleans trade, and it is
a matter OF mnch regret that she has been
lost. We say lost, as, according to the
present condition Of the upper river. it is
almost impossible to believe otherwise.
Captain William j. Rusk. it will be re-
membered, met with terribly bad luck
while in command OF the steamer ". X.
Arthur last season and the present disaster
seems TO prove that i'll luck is following
him. We will furnish more particular de-
tails Tomorrow As regards the cargo of the
Turner
