The Washington correspondent of
the Plcayane suggests that "Louisiana
ought to have a transcript Of the milf
tary history OF the troops supplied by
tho State to the confederacy and com.
plete rolls and other documents now
on file iu the Office of the war records"
These records can now be obtained
only on the request Of Governors Of
States at the expense nf the State.
Tie idea is good and should DO carried
out. There are no records in the Ad-
jutant Generals office, except those of
the regiments in the Army of Northern
Virginia, During the war, seeing the
necessity of preserving such valuable
documents, the lamented Gov. II. w.
Allen sent Col. H. M. Favrot on mis-
sion of this kind with Instructions to
make a complete roster of every re-
giment from this State in the field
and Il record Of every soldier from
Louisiana. He had performed that
duty and was on his way to the Army
Of Tennessee on like mission when
the surrender took place and the sol
diers became scattered. Ii we mis-
take not the records of the Virginia
troops a,e in the State House. while
there Is not a scratch of pen to tell
the tale of the other heroes, and these
can now be had from the confederate
archives captured at Richmond and
stored in Neutrality-suspicious. Ronge

 | Scientific American.
 Among the varieties of wild chicory the most important is chieory with large i~foots, knawn as coffee chicory" It is I a nereQnial pfant, whose root. by torre- faction, acquires a bitter flavor and an arofna which is, not unlike that of sugar l converted into earamels. This is the va | riety which is daily increasing in com 1 mercial and industrial importance. In 1 Belgium it largely replaces coffee in the 1, lower ranks Of society. West Flanders, | in the district around Courtrai and Roul-
 CTS. is itssPrincipal home. The method | of its cultivation greatly resembles that l Qf the beet. The seeds. which are very small. are sown by a hand drill, three rows, at D. time during the months of April ana May, ,tand they are sown at a | distanee'of aboiit 15 inches apart There
 are several varieties. or rather sub-di- | visions, of this variety, The two chief
 ones are known as the "wide-leaved feehioory" Ca large feuilles) and the "eel- f-headed Sohieofy" CfriSees a tetes dan j euilfes)s gf winch the latter is considered | ths--beSt. The seed is obtained by re- I planting in the month of March, the old | stalks being dug out during the preced- | ing autumn, In the course of a few l weeks these go to seed. Each plant | gives srabout 300 grains of seed. Another l eotliiittt S{AfS OoU pOuiuS Ol SReu Der acre. A temperate climate is required | and aHEigorous soil, even slightly clayey 1 produces the best chcory with the heav-
 iest,roots.. Sandy soils also are good, but
 the roots are generally lighter. The soil , must be plowed several weeks in ad-
 About 16o.0oo plants are raised an 1 acre A crop of eleven to fourteen tons | of green roQts is produced per acre. The I harvest takes place in October and Mo- | vernber. .Fhe roots must be immediately l washed and dried, and then may be pre-
 ssrNed for fifteen to eighteen months l Theseeds, if put in a dry place, may be l kept forseven years. The plant has no | known Diseases, but is subject to at l tacks of a worm, which eats the roots lsThe leaves of the plant generally grow l in a Shiall tuft, are narrow, and do not 3eRxceed 10 or F inches in height The | roots are carrot-shaped, slightly larger | dark gray in color on the exterior and l nearly dead white in the interior. The | roots are dried on perforated racks in | kilns by means of coke fires, and are | then cut by machines into small pieces. l These are known as cossettes, and chic | ory is generally exported to, America in | this form. Afterward 1t is ground and sold in powder under the name of gran | ulated dhicory. Only very recently r royal decree has been promulgated in l Belgium declaring the essential quali- | ties of pure chicory requiring all pack | ages to-be legib1y marked with the name | and forbdding, under heavy penalties l the sale of any adulteration as the gen. uine article. A similar law exists re- | specting coffee.

A FALSE REPORT.
Telegram Announcing Wreck on the Louis vile & Nashville at ColeSburg kyp
 a Rank Canard.

The following dispatch which ap- peared in yesterday mornings Daily State, proves to be untrue. It read thus:
 Louisville, Sept. IA report is cur rent here that twenty-seven people have been killed in a wreck on the Louisville and Nashville railway. The wreck is said to have occurred at Colesburg
 Naturally such report would create great uneasiness in this city in view ot. the fact that a large number of Birmins@ ham people have gone to Louisville ana other points beyond there on account of the cheap rates offered.
 An Age-Herald reporter saw Superin- tendent Newbold in reference to the %re- ported wreck and asked if there was any truth in 1t. The genial superintendent informed the news gatherer that as soon as he saw the telegram in print he wired MT. G. E. Evans superintendent of trans portatlon, in Louisville in reference to it and a very prompt answer was received to the effect that the report was without a shadow of truth and most atrociously false. MT. Evans reported that notwith- standing the immense travel now be- ing handled, every train was handled with the greatest of ease and without a shadow of trouble or danger to the pre- ciouS souls on board.
 Who started the rumor of a wreck or why could not be understood by the Louisville and Nashville officials. and the general surmise is that some one with malice toward the old reliable had put out the report with a view to affecting travel on that line
 Be this as it may. it was a cruel and unwarranted piece of work and actually worse than the diabolcal deeds of train wrecker.
