Correction,

Mr. EDITOR: In one of my recent letters
to the Chattanooga Times announced upon
what [ regarded as good authority, that T.
r Cornick, jr., in consequer ce of pressing
private business, had retired from the prac
tice of law. Mr.. Cornick informs me- that
this is a mistake, and therefore 1 make all
possible haste to correct it. Tobesure for
the past few months he has not given much
attention to his law business owing to the
reason indicated. 1t is well known, l pre-
sume, that he is an important factor in the
Emory Gap Railroad, after whose interests
he has looked with great energy and assid-
uity, and for the completion of which he is
still taxing his time and attention AS to
giving up his profession, that he has no
idea of doing. I thought very strange
of it at the time, in view of the high posi-
ton he held at the bar and the amount of
business in bis hands. indulge in no ex-
aggeration when l remark that he has, in
my judgment, good reason for prosecuting
his profession. He has a lucrative practice,
is bold and able advocate, and with am
bition enough to attain an exalted position
i'll his profession. ALoNzo DANTE.

The Telephone Improved.

To overcome the local noises charae-
terizing mills and other places, and
which, as is well known, disturbs the
successful operation of the ordinary
telephone, an instrument has been
devised, consisting of square box, in
which are placed both transmitting
and receiving diaphragm; from the
chamber of the latter two sound tubes
extend, to bereceiEed one in each ear,
these being kept. in place by "a small
spiral spring, tending to draw the tubes
together, and thus keep the small rubber
caps on the ends of the sound tubes in
place in the ear. The effect of these
caps is to smut out all extraneous sounds,
and confine those of the receiving tele-
Shone, SO that their full force is efelt on
the ear The lower part OF the box
contains the transmitter, which is made
veryssensitive; pressing a button brings
the battery into circuit with the trans
mitter. 1t claimed that this instru-
ment will talk 200 miles OF more.-N

The Pea Weevil.


every part of the United States, except,
perhaps, from Central ~u1 Wisconsin
north, as to have most seriously inter-
fered with the cultivation of the pea as
seed or food crop. Hence the most of
our seed and food peas are raised in
Canada, and corresponding latitudes
where the season is too short or too
cold for the insect, the ravages. OF which
occur more freely as we approach the
tropics. m a. y
This insect is one Of the snout beetles,
and closely allied to the curculio, and no
means have yet been found to stay its
ravages. The eggs are laid on the pods
of the young pea, to which they are fas-
tened by yiscid fluid. The insects work
at night and on dark, cloudy days, and
the eggs Matching, the minute worm
finds its way through the pod and into
the peas, upon which it feeds, avoid
ing, however, the germ, so that pea
may be nearly eaton out, as to its meat,
and yet still retain the power of germi-
nation, although weak. y
Ii the peas, as soon as gathered, are
threshed, and dried at a temperature of
40 degrees, the young insects are said
to be killed, but the seed will not germi-
nate. Immersion of the dry peas in
scalding water for 100 seconds is said
to kill the pupa without injury to the
pea. An immersion of about three
minutes totally destroys termination OF
the pea. Late-sown peas usually escape
the attacks of the insect, but the crop
is then liable to mildew in the West.
So far, it must be confessed, no cer-
tain practical means have been found to
subdue the insect, and it is now feared
the allied weevil (Brucbats Fab9) which
attacks the bean, will create great loss
in this crop. In fact the weevil family
(curculiontd8), or snout beetles, one of
the largest families in the order Of bee
ties, and comprising over 10000 distinct
and described species, and preying upon
all grain, legumes, fruits, and nuts, are
the most difficult to check of any of the
destructive insects.
As to effective means for killing all
insects infesting seeds. the weevil tribe
generally, we have lately seen the
bisulphide of carbon recommended. 1t
certainly is deadly, and small quantity
poured in the bottom of grain bin
would permeate the whole mass Half
pint Of the liquid is said to be sufficient
for fifty to 100 bushels of grain, since it
is both volatile and penetrating The
Miller advises placing the chemical in
connection with the grain, in order to
get it duly in the bottom of the bin, as
follows: '5S -f
\ Takefa hollow iron cylinder. gas
pipe will do well fit into tia wood
en- rod, which shall be little longer
than the iron tube One end of the rcd
is to be made sharp; now place the rod
inside the tube, and with the sharp end
down force them both to the bottom OF
the grain then, having withdrawn the
rod, turn in the liquid through the tube,
which should be pulled out. The insect
icide, of course, is left at the bottom of
the grain, and being very volatile, soon
diffuses through the mass and converts
the bin into an insect cemetery.-Prair.e

A River Romance.

Seated near us was lady and hes

I She, too, was listening to Captain AS.

ventures on, the. river, ahis trials and
tribulations, his joys and sorrows.
""About eighteen Year ago. he said

women | had seen in al my life. She
had q little girl with her, more hand

bade the clerk consign her to state
room, as it was in the middle of the
night. The boat was delayed by q
heavy fog, and we were compelled TO
lay at the bank until long after, daylight.
The lady approached and thanked me
ever so much, and told me that, she was
the wife of Confederate Captain who
had been shot and killed by a party Of
scouts or guerrillas; her home had been
robbed aud burnt, and she, with her
child, succeeded in fleeing from the
scene of carnage, and was the next day
brought to Hannibal by kind farmer.

since, but I hope she is happy, and that

The Whipping-Post in Maryland.

The next case was that of David
Gardner, dark -colored man about
thirty-five years of age, charged with
assaulting and beating his wife, Eliza.
beth Gardner, neatly-dressed mulatto
woman about the same age. She testi.
fled that they lived at No Z Upton
street. On the Sd of the present month
he came home and accused her of going
across the street to "a store kept by 9
colored man named Jones, and abusing
him, her husband. This she denied, and
called Jones over to prove it. Wher
Jones confirmed her statement he flew
into rage, called Jones a liar, and,
turning upon his wife, struck her two
hard blows with his fist, giving her a
black eve, knocked her down, and then
kicked and stamped her. In his own
behalf Gardner stated that he had only
struck her with his open hand, and had
not kicked nor stamped her when she
was down. He seemed to think that
she had been too friendly with Jones,
who, he said, he knew had given her
icewater repeatedly. After giving his
evidence Gardner turned, as if to leave
the stand, when Judge Dobbin directed
him to stop moment, and told him
that he probably did not know that the
last Legislature had passed law for
the benefit of just such offenders as he
was. The court added 'sYour punish
ment shall be thirty lashes at the whip
ping post" For moment the man
seemed speechless with surprise, and
then, looking over his shoulder, as if
trying to get good view of his back,
said; "Fou de Lord, Judge, 1 ruther
have seven years in JAIL" and shrugged
his shoulders with sort of shiyer. The
Judge further said that he intended to
put the whipping post into existence
under the law; that only two or three
examples would be necessary, and the
offense would be entirely abated. Mr..
Edward j. Clarke, counsel for the ac-
cused, soon after filed motion for a
new trial. and the case will therefore 90
to the Supreme Bench. He will take
the ground that the law is unconstitu-
tional, and further, that Gardner was
never married to the woman, and he,
therefore, did not beat his wife, which
is the offense which the law describes.-
