THIS is the season for the currant worm TO
operate. Five cents worth of white hcllebore,
in powder, well applied, will clear garden of
them. 1t is poison, and is best applied from a
thin bag, tied on the end of a slender three foot
rod. A smart tap on the rod will difIuso the
dust very evenly among the dewy leaves.
The curcullo is beginning its puncturlng of the
young plums now, and if not destroyed or driven
off, it will pant its eggs in every plum in every
tree, before May is out. To jar them down, and
catch them a sheet mornings and evenings is
the only sure course.

that shooting affray occurred in Ora.
niteville, on Sunday night, which result.
ed in the death of white man, named
Glenn Gulledge. From the imperfect de-
tails OF the affair which we could gather.
it seems that party OF colored mon had
quarrel with some white men on Satur-
day, which was renewed on Snnday
evening. The parties to the affair com.
menced shooting, and Mr.. Gulledge-an
innocent spectator-was killed.
Rev. J. q. 81. Millett, OF Beaufort,

REVOLT IN MExIco--GENERALs PLACE
DO VEGA AND LozUDA KILLED.-Th
American schooner Nidaros, Captain
Permien, arrived yesterday afternoon,
from San Bias. She brings the confirm
alton of the revolt. already reported
few days ago, in telegram to New York,
which enormously gave Tehauntepeo as
the field of action. Gems. Piacido Vega
and Lozuda have both been killed, and
the greatest excitement prevailed at San
Bias, every house being searched for
parties who participated in the revolu-
ton. The captain of the Nidaros was
unable to get any particulars; there was
no Mexican paper to be had. nor was it
safe to go ashore. The authorities
ordered three men on board to watch the
vessel till she left the port, to prevent
any of the rebels from escaping by taking
passage.

COTTON WAREHOUSES; The following
preamble and resolution were adopted at
a meeting of the Board of Trade, on the
9Th instant:
Whereas, the large increase in the
local cotton trade in this city, and the
extension of general railroad facilities,
bringing an enlarged general traffic, the
course of which plainly shows that Co.
lnmbia is destined to assume an impor-
tant position as point Of distribution
in connection with the domestic and
foreign trade in cotton, and clearly indi-
Gates the necessity for increased facili.
ties for the storage Of cotton at this
point, and Tor larger financial accommo-
dations to aid in the production and
transportation of the staple, and in its
being held in first hands to secure better
advances in the market:
Resolred, That it is matter OF great
interest to the citizens of Columbia,
especially to those engaged in CONNER
cial pursuits and to owners of real estate,
that warehouse accommodations and
facilities on large scale should be estab.
lished in this city at the earliest practi-
cable time, and that capitalists disposed
to furnish such facilities will be entitled
to, and will, III fact, receive from the
citizens and business men Of this place,
and especially from this board, the SYM
patty and assistance necessary to place
their business upon O sound and paying
basis, whether that end is to be pro-
NOTED by private aid alone, or by local!
or general legislation to that end,

IL IS related Of First Controller Tavler. to
illustrate the tenscIty with which he adheres
TO the strict letter of the law in his rulings, that

ceived six coupons, each Of the value of
three collars, from the sub-:reasury in
New York where the face value had been
pald and the coupons officially punched to indi-
cate theiE Cancellation and worthlessness. IL
was necessary, however, that these coupons
should be sent to the L. 5. Trsasurer's office for
record, subsequently to several other bureaus
OF The treasury department, and finally to Con-
troller Isyler, whose duty II was to certify
TO the accuracy of the transaction. The
coupons passed from one bureau to another
