CURE FOR COLDS IN THE HEAD.-The
London Spectator says:-It would seem
that the cure for those worst of small
nuisances, colds in the head, which DIR.
Ferrier suggested In the Lancet, might
prove to be remedy of very great
value. 1t is snuff-a white powder
composed of the following ingredients: !:
Hydrochlorate of morphia, two grains;
acacia powder, two draehms; trisnitrate
of bismuth, SIX drachms-the whole
making up quantity Of powder of
which from one-quarter to one-half
may safely be taken, if necessary, in
the course of twenty-fours. DIR. Ferrier
says that with this snuff he has twice
cured himself of very violent colds,
once, indeed, by taking trisnitr1e of
bismuth alone, which is a very power
full remedy for catarrh of the mucus
membrane, and Is the most important
ingredient in this snuff. DIR. Ferrier
mentions two other persons who were
cured of violent colds by the same snuff,
and to these instances we may add that
of the present writer, who, having a
very violent cold coming on, with the
sensation of weight in the temples and
the usual disagreeable feeling in the
throat, as well as ordinary catarrh,
made trial Of DR.. Ferrier's remedy one
evening, and got up on the following
morning completely free from cold,
which has not since required. The
snuff, instead dOfincreasing the tendency
to sneeze almost Immediately begins to
diminish it.

CLEAN Your WooL.-The season of
sheep shearing is at hand, and to know
how best TO prepare wool for the market
is what many sheep raisers have to
learn. Each may think his way the
best, and whether it is or not, if the
buyer cannot be made to think so, it is
OF little avail. A fleece of wool should
be in such condition that it may be
unrolled or spread out like piece of
cloth for examination. 1t should go to
market clean and white and well tied
up, showing no tears or ragged edges.
A dirtv, carelessly-handled lot Of wool
can never be made TO bring what it
would sell for il care and skill were
exercised in its preparation for the mar
ket. There has been a tendency in the
past to find some excuse for sending
wool TO market in an uncleaned state,
but we think the mistake has been dis
covered, and the wool crop is beginning
10 receive the attention that it did thirty
years ago. Give your wool the greatest
attention; if you expect the best offers,
see that it is cleansed from all dirt by
washing, either on the sleeps back or
after shearing, and every fleece put up
in good style. When this is done, the
full value OF the article will be paid you
by the purchaser, and no discount.

AGRICULTURE.

THE POTATO BUG AND CURRANT
WoRN.-As the potato bugs are likely to
be fully as troublesome this year as
last, we hope our farmers will not for
get TO take care of them in season.
There are two effectual ways-hand-
picking and poisoning by Paris green.
If the field is of any considerable size
and the bugs numerous, the latter is the
only practicable method. Take one
pound of Paris green and mix thol-
oughly with twenty or thirty pounds of
damaged wheat flour or plaster of Paris,
and dust the potato vines with il early
in the morning while the dew is on
them. a dredging box of tin, mounted
on handle two or three feet long, will
answer the purpose very well and can
be cheaply made by any tinker.
The currant worm, as is well known,
is destroyed by busting of powdered
hellebore applied early iii the morning
while the dew is on the bushes. The
first generation of them has already
matured and changed to flies, and in a
short time the next generation must be
looked for in greater numbers, and if
not seasonably destroyed will destroy
the bushes. BY watching for them aud
destroying them while yet small, the
bushes are saved with little expense.
The powdered hellebore is not dan
gerous thing 10 handle; if il gets into
the nose it causes slight irritation and
sneezing, but it is harmless. Paris
green, however, Is more dangerous and
must be handled with care and kept out
OF reach of children. LII the hands are
cut or scratched be careful to keep them
covered while using it.

WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON. May l4.-At the caucus
of democratic members Mr.. Clymer oceu-
pied the chair. The first question was the
senate concurrent resolution proposing the
10th of June as the time of adjournment.
The house had postponed its consideration
until the 10th TO morrow. Wood moved
consideration be further postponed till the
5th of June. This was disagreed to and
on motion of Franklin postponement was
extended to the 26th of the present month.
During the debate it was claimed that the
present state of public business would not
permit day to be fixed for adjournment.
The house should hold this ipower 10 its
own hands. In addition to the proposed
Investigation into election frauds some of
the general appropriation bills and tariff
rnd Pacific railroad bills were to be acted
on.
The resolution offered yesterday by
Potter to investigate the alleged frauds in
Florida and Louisiana was taken up. Will
son offered resolution allowing the repub-
licans to offer amendments to the reeolu-
ton, but this, after debate, was rejected.
Young made motion declaring that the
Potter resolution was not intended to dis
turb the title of President Hayes. Harrison
was the only member who seconded it in a
brief speech. During the interchange. OF
views it was held that such declaration was
unnecessary, as the preamble to the reso-
luton clearly and distinctly set forth
the object of the proposed investigation to
be the vindication of the nation, and that
the truth as to such elections shall be
made known, and besides the committee,
under the resolution, had no power to
disturb the position of the president. and
furthermore the general sentiment Of
democrats was to confne the investigation
strictly to the question of frauds. without
bringing into question the presidential
title. In view of these statements the
motion was not acted on by the caucus,
which declared by a large majority tc
adhere to the Potter resolution, and
instructed him not to yield to any amend
ment from the republican !side. 1t was
unanimously agreed that the resolution
should be finally acted upon before any
other business was done. On motion o.
Wood it was resolved that all democratic
members out of the city he notified Il
