Al Nashville, Tenn, last week, the
wife OF b. +. Pit. who was under ar
rest. charged with forgery, was admitted
to the Jail to confer with her husband,
as IL the custom, and after the usual
lapse of time she, as wac Supposed. came
out deeply glieyed aud weeping, and
departed fax her home. The surprise
OF the TAILOR can be better imagined than
described when he discovered, instead
Of Benjamin Pitt as his prisoner, the
wife Of Fit undergoing imprisonment.
The accused had donned the apparel of
his wife and had fed the scene.

THE House ,of Delegates continued
in session all OF Saturday night and to
1870 p. VI. en- Sunday. The Gllbus-
tering tactics Of the opposition sue
ceeded in staving of final action upon
the debt bill. The friends of the bill
were powerless as q final vote could
only be ordered by two.thirds vote.
Finding that they could not succeed,
the debt-payiag party gave up the fight.
The bill Is killed for this session, and
its only chance is the Governors call
ing an extra session OF the Legislature.
The people are weary Of the fight and
would we believe, have been pleased,
to have heard Of final action.

MINISTER'S. WOMEN AND RUMsELLEEs.
-Rcy Joseph Cook, having been applied
to by the womans Christian temperance
union to consider, with the other clergy
men, the questions as to how far the
ministry is responsible for the present
status of the liquor traffic, and rs to what
ministers ought to do for its discourage
ment by participation in social and politi-
cal reforms, replied as follows:
MADAM Show me what the whiskey
ring does not want and | will show you
what do want If there is anything
which rumsellers fear more than the
direct influence of woman in determining
temperance legislation, it is combination
of womans influence with that Of the
pulpit These two forces are the most
unfnching and merciess, as well rs the
most powerful of all the antagonists of
illegal rumselling. Irejoice in any prac-
ticable union between the ministry and
woman's movement for home protection
against intemperance. The brave and
scholarly men who ill the pulpts of New
England are the natural foes ofthe whiskey
ring. Your petition to the ministers of
Boston to discuss in their association and
conferences the duties of the church to-
wards temperance legislation, needs no
support from me. 1t ought to meet with
eager attention, and will, hope, lead to
prompt action Massachusetts has already
given women the ballot on education, and
thus endorsed principles which will lead
Ultimately to giving her vote on temper
ancc. Not woman suffragst myself,
am yet in favor of trying the experiment
of both the temperance and educational
ballot in the hands of woman.
Yours most truly,
JOSEPH Cook.

SALT ON WHEAT LANDS.-ln response
to an inquiry from the McGregor, Iowa,
NeWS, r. Elliot & Co., grain buying
firm in Milwaukie, make the following
report:
The evidences reported to us are mainly
from Waukesha county in this state, where
salt has been used during the last three or
four years. The results are reported very
satisfactory in all cases. In the vineity
of Eagle the bug has been so destructive
for several years that many farmers aban-
doned wheat raising and the production of
wheat was down TO about ten TO twenty
per cent of what it had been from 1860 to
1868. Experiments with salt about four
years ago were so favorable that an in
creased amount of land has been so treated
each succeeding year, until the past year
when salt was supplied at that station for
about $500 acres, and considerable
amount was also supplied at neiehboring
stations. The testimony of farmers is
uniform and cumulative, and to this effect
1t keeps the ground moist,acts like fertil-
izer, pushes the crop II week or ten days
ahead, and produces II yield about fifty per
cent greater than that of the same seed
and same treatment but not sailed, This
is in cases where the bug does not attack
either.
AS far as the locality is concerned ex-
perience shows that the cinch bug will
not work in sailed lands. An instance is
cited where the little pests, LATTER de-
stroylng II field not salted, worked in II
couple Of feet in an adjoining field (salted)
and then ilanked out into a corn field"
The only case reported this year where
they have made much showing in salted
land is on one piece where corn had been
raised previously. They appeared in the
places the hills had been, but died ont and
did no damage, and while there has been
considerable damage by the bugs in Wau-
kesha county, we can hear Of none on
sailed lands.
The amount used is about three hundred
pounds, or say one barrel to the acre,
applied after seeding. We hear that it is
sometimes mixed with land plaster; those
who have so used it claim it the best plan.
Refuse salt swept from dry salted meats
al the packing houses is as good us any
for the purpose, and can doubtless be pro-
cured ut low prices at Dubuque, Sabula
and other places near your country. 1t
certainly will not cost much 10 Try the
experiment, and in any event the salt is
worth more than its cost us fertiizer.-
| Ohio Farmer.
