Killing Cabbage Worms.

Every year we get new batch OF
remedies for the cabbage worm-or
rather, we get a rehash Of the old
remedies, and every year after try
ing one or more Of them, we all 90
back to the oldest remedy Of all, the
thumb and finger. "Try again"
however, it is a good motto, so we
COW give one more "certain cure. :"
sgiyen by 8. eorrespondenE q ths
New York Tribune and is this: I'm
June" he Gays, in going through
my early cabbage, I found one com
pletely covered with the worm. In
mediately I obtained handful Of
bran and sprinkled it over the head.
The worms began to squirr. and fall
off the cabbage, and wherever the
bran touched them they seemed to
be in pain. The following morning
they were all dead. Since that time,
on the first appearance of the worm
l SOW the bran. Some seasons it may
be necessary to do it the second time.
If the worms are very thick, it is
better to take a handful sprinkle it
over the cabbage. A hundred weight
is ample for an acre" Thisis simple,
cheap, and easily tried Possibly, it
may be the very thing we have been
looking for.

upon him by royal letters patent.
This omission gave rise to endless
vexations, especially when the Queen
and her husband were abroad The
position accorded to him at foreign
courts the Queen always had to-ac-s
knowledge as q grace and favor be-
slowed upon herself by the sover-
eigns whom che visited. Several
sovereigns positively refused to graf
iiy her wishes in this respect, and
the only one who was courteous
enough to do SO without an offe' sive
show Of doing favor was the late
Emperor of the French. Even in
En- land annoyances constantly arose
from the want of Parliamentary ac-
ton on this question. The Princes
right 20 occupy the seat next the
throne when Parliament was opened
or prorogued was questioned by the
Duke Of Sussex and others but the
Queen, supported by the Duke of
Wellington, quietly ignored the in
reference. Let the Queen put the
Prince whore she likes" he said.
The great Duke had not much tolera-
tion for the traditions of court eti-
quette when they conAicted with the
dictates of common sense. The late
Lord Albemarle, when Master of the
Horse, was very sensitive about his
right'in that capacity to cit IN the
sovereigns carriage on state occa-
sions. 1.-The Queen" said the Duke,
when appealed to for his opinion
can make Lord Albemarle sit at
the top of the coach, under the coach,
behind the coach, or wherever else
her Majesty plcases.
The marriage took place at the
chapel of st. Jamess Palace on the
10th of February, l84o. 1t was
very popular, with the people, be-
cause it was not one of political con-
venience, but of pure affection, and
thousands liaed the roads from Buck
ingham Palace to Windsor Castls to
see the Queen and her husband as
they passed. The morning of the
day had been wet, foggy, and dismal,
but there. was not wanting soon after
the ceremony the happy omen of that
sunshine which came afterward to be
proverbially known as "Queens wealth
err" Whatever annoyances came to
the Queen and her consort from that
day to the hour of the Princes death
came from the outside. Their home
life was always happy. From the
day Of his betrothal to the Queen,
Prince Albert held unwaveringly 10
the high course of life he had mark
ed out for himself-a course that
gained him the confidence and affec-
tion of the people and the name of
Albert the Good. 7"

and among the frlnce own people.
But when the question of the annui-
ty to be settled upon him on his mar
riage came before Parliament there
was squabble which mus. nave been
very disagreeable to him and to
the Queen. The cabinet proposed
e5O,000 year, the same that had
been granted to Prince Leopold on
his marriage with the Princess Char
lotte; but after an acrimonious de-
bate this sum was reduced to $780,
600. The Prince took it in manly
manner, merely remarking to Baron
Stockmar that his only regret was to
find that his ability to help artists
and men of science, to which he had
been looking forward with delight,
would be more restricted than he had
