The Celery CrOD.


Germantown Telegraph.
This is the month to set out celery
plants, and we advise that the entire crop
be set out by the 2jth. For early use it
should be done at once. We have long
thought that the failure of celery is more
frequently to be ascribed to late planting
than to any other cause. The ground in
the trenches, which should be about six
inches deep, should be well pulverized
and made as rich as possible. For
this purpose COW manure mixed
with mould is excellent. An application
of this mixture, to form the first
shilling up" cannot be surpassed in ef-
feet. Guano water or liquid manure from
the dungyard is excellent and should be
applied at least once day, in the evening.
Care must be taken in hilling-up that the
leaders, of the celery are not buried,
that the soil be made fine, and that the
mingling of it among the plants be done
with the hands. 1t is good plan to plant
celery between alternate rows of corn !;
the corn affords an excellent protection
against the hot July and August suns, the
cOrnstalks to he removed as soon as the
corn has been consumed and the plants
have attained sufficient size and strength
to take care of themselves.
Ihe best SOIL Tor celery should be rich
and moist /; in fact it cannot be too highly
manured. Where there is no protection
to the young plants, boards should be laid
over the trenches every day from 10 to
o'clock.
OF all the crops of the garden there are
none SO difficult to raise in perfection as
celery. To get it in perfection requires
the fulfilment of all the conditions here
briefly named. But after it is grown the
next difficulty is to preserve it through the
winter SO that it will be solid and sound
up to and through the month of April.
provided the supply be large enough to
hold out.

Protection Against Mosquitoes.

As sure remedy against mosquitoes and
other obnoxious insects, the tincture of
Persian insect powder has been recon-
mended. The success of the preparation
depends upon the way it is applied. The
tincture must be prepared with alcohol of
full strength. and not diluted. 1t should
be used with an atomizer. and, employed
in this manner. It is said that it will effect

Brandy as a Medicine.
The following article was voluntarily sent to
Mr.. ii. +. Slaymaker, Agent for Reigart's Old
Wine store, by prominent practising physi
clan OF this county, who has extensively used
the Brandy referred to in his regular practice.
1t is commended to the attention OF those af.
flicted with
Indigestion and Dyspepsia.
BRANDY ASA MEDICINE.
This now much abused Alcoholic stimulant
was never intended as a beverage, but to be
used as a medicine of great potency in the cure
sweep away their annual thousands of victims.
With purely philanthrOpic motive we pre-.
sent to the favorable notice OF invalids-espe-
cially those afflicted with that miserable dis
ease Dyspepsia, a specific remedy. which is
nothing more or less than
Brandy.
The aged, with feeble appetite and more or
less debility, will find this simple medicine,
when used properly,
A Sovereign Remedy
rail- their ills and aches. Be it, however
strictly understood that we prescribe and use
but one article and that is
REIGART'S OLD BRANDY,
Sold by our enterprlsing young friend, H E.
SLAYMAKER. This Brandy has stood the
test for years, and has never failed. rs far
our experience extends, and We therefore
give it the preference over all other Brandies,
no matter with how many aw-brcaking French
titles they are branded. One-fOurth of the
money that is yearly thrown away on various
impOtent dyspepsia specifies would suffice to
buy ali the Brandy to cure any such case or
cases. In proof OF the curative powers OF
Reigart's Old Brandy,
In cases OF Dyspepsia, we can summon mum
bcrs of witnesses-One case in particular We
cite:-
A Woodworking farmer had been afflicted
with an exhaustive Dyspepsia tor q number of
years; his stomach would reject almost every
kind of food; he had sour eructatiOns con-
stantly-uO appetite-in fact, he was obliged to
restrict his diet to crackers and stale bread,
and rs beverage he used McGrann's Root
Beer. He Is a Methodist, and then, as now,
preached ut times, and in his discourses often
declaimed earnestly against all kinds OF strong
drink. When advised to try
Relgart's Old Brandy,
In his case, he looked up with astOn1shment,
but after hearing of its wonderful effects in
the cases of some of his near acq uaintances, he
at last consented to follow our advice lie
used the Brandy faithfully and steadily; the
first bottle giving him an appetite, and before
the second was taken he was sound man with
a stomach capable of digesting any thing W hich
he chose to eat. He stiil keeps it and uses lit
tie occasionally; and since he has this medi- |
cine he has been of very little pecuniary bene-
mt to the dOctor.-A PRACTISING PHYSICIAN.

A STRANGE COUNTRY.

dSeS 10 SOFea, aInCSC WllnOuL arms,
and without any sounding of mar
tial trumpets- If he had essayed
three voyages to the moon, and had
successfully returned with informa-
ton concerning lunar scenery, in
habitants, and material resources,
his report would not be one whit
more novel and entertaining than
his notes on Corea. He found a
country in which there is absolute
ly no luxury, and in which gold is
found everywhere, and copper, tin,
lead, antimony, and other valuable
metals abound. The climate is per-
feet, aud the agricultural produc-
tions are of spontaneous growth
the ginseng of the country, which is
worth its weight in gold, being
gathered without previous husband
ry. The waters TEEN with fish, the
forests and plains with game, and
nature plenteously responds to the
slightest touch of the husbandman.
But the people may be said to live
in state of almost primitive sim
plicity. Their dwellings are rude
huts, for the most part, only the
houses of the high officials showing
any evidence of architectural skill
or taste
With gold and silver lying locked
in the ground, guarded by royal
edicts from the hands of the miner,
the only currency of the country is
"A copper coin, resembling the cop
per and bronze cash of China.
Although the mulberry tree is in
digenous to the soil, the culture of
the silk worm is an almost unknown
industry. And while noble forests
of rare woods are ignorantly vast
ed, or left to decay from natural
causes, the natives have no COM
merce. Their simple wants are
supplied by white fabrics of hemp
and fax, from which their garments
are made; and paper Of extraordi-
nary fneness furnishes them with
material for hats and umbrellas
Manufactures of plated grass are
common, and i'll the larger towns
some little attention is paid to orna-
mental work in dress and equip
page. Glass is unknown. The
crockery and enrthenware of the
country is of the rudest descrip-
ton.
In short, the Coreans seem to
have found out how few and sim
pie are the wants of man, and to
have agreed that they will create no
artificial necessities.
The common people manifested
desire to meet strangers from be-
yond the sea, and Mr.. Oppert was
uniformly received and treated with
affability, mingled with an almost
affectionate curiosity. But the Off
cial policy of non-intercourse rose
up against the daring invader ut
every step. Short excursions along
the shores of the country, and pa
tient questioning of the natives, fur
nished the basis of the conclusions
which he brought away with him.
He was purposely kept at a dis
tauce from the capital of the King
dom, and, wearied out at last BY
the battling delays to which he was
subjected, his third voyage con-
vinced him that the country was
impenetrable. He relinquished his
cherished scheme of opening trade
with the people, and SO left Corea
with its doors closed as immovably
as ever to all advances from with
out.

THERE NEVER was a more daring

THERE NEVER was o more daring
attempt to overawe the popular voice
of this State than that now making by
the leaders of the Republican party.
Every means is resorted to; no false
hood is too open and bold for them to
utter. 1t would be useless to attempt
to single out the fdlsehoods that are
put forth by the Republican and NetOs
to deceive and mislead the people of
this county and State. They have re-
sorted to the most desperate means to
overwhelm this city and county with
reporters and negro voters; these men
have been taught to 60 from Hundred
to Hundred and vote wherever they
could find an Inspector that could be
deceived into taking their votes. AS
many as twenty and thirty negroes
were colonized into some of the Hun
dreds along the Maryland border
months ago in order to carry the dis
tricts and secure Inspectors who would
take votes in November without re-
gard to whether they were legal or not.
Democrats in every part Of this ooun-
ty will be required to exercise the ut
most vigilance to see that none are al
lowed to vote who are not clearly emit
tied to do 80.

GEN. GRANT has shown spirit
toward General Hancock since the lat
ter's nomination for the Presidency, that
10 really detestible, and unbecoming the
dignity that should control a high
minded gentleman. His remarks in an
interview with Rev. C. II. Fowler, DID,,
as published by that gentleman, are of a
character that, since their publication
even Grant himself, it seems, has been
made ashamed of if we believe the at
tempted explanations, through some of
the Radical newspapers.
General W. F. Smith, reply to Grant
In the N. 7. Sun, of yesterday, is just
and whitening rebuke that is well meri-
ted. 1t will be found in another col
umn, and should be read by those who
would learn the truth. They will see
in General Smiths article that Grant
in his remarks convicts himself Of utter
Ing what is untrue regard to Hancock,
and that Grant shows jealousy that
must 60 far to prove that he would make
the people believe that the country could
not get along without his services in the
Presidential chair. Grants whole heart
seems to have been fixed on third
term, and he cannot endure the thought
OF 30 irreproachable and able a gentle
man from the Army, as Hancock, should
be elected to the Presidency. Well
he will reap his reward at the hands oil
the people. His ambition to be raised
above Washington will hardly be graft
fed. A large section of Grants own
party revolts at the idea, and Republic
can Journals have denounced him even
more severely than the Democratic
journals ever did.

The Republican Legislature of Ohio
gerymanderedt the Congressional districts
Of the State so as to give themselves
fourteen and the Democrats six members
of the next delegation. In the present
Congress there are eleven Democrats to

sane apportlonment the Republicans
should get majority of the delegation at
the election next week, they will not
fail to crow over it as great political
victory. But if they should lose a ma
jority in spite of the gerrymander, then
they will say there has been no change.
1t may be we'll to bear this contingency
in mind.

DEMOCRATS will not forget that the
Republican party had 1900 majority in
Wilmington in September, 1876, and yet
In November, when all the States voted
In one day the majority for Hayes was
reduced to one hundred. Now, when
the Democrats have one of the most
popular candidates, and the Republi-
cans are so unpopular as to fail in Name,
there can be no doubt that Wilmington
will give a majority of three or four
hundred for the Democrats in Novsm.
Der, and that New Castle county will
largely increase this majority. Yet il
behooves every Democrat TO be watch
full, and to do all in his power to secur.
a vote wherever he can.
