I was mistaken, for the bar leaped over the

growl, was off the pack of course in full cry
after him. The run this time, was short, for
coming to the edge of a luko the varmint
jumped in, and swam to a little island in the
lake, which it "reached just a moment before

Pascagoula Ray.
The story told of a wild and singular melo
dy floating about this bay, is well authenticat
ed ; and though sufficiently fanciful and ro
mantic to be rejected as a superstition, it is,
nevertheless, entitled to full credit. At East
Pascagoula, about a mile from Field's Hotel,
there are si ill some signs left of an old Indian
fort, which here had existeuce before the foot
of a white man stepped upon the soil. It
was built of mud aud shells, and not many
years ago when curiositv led - to excavations
being made, pipes, bones, Indian ornaments,
and utensils were dug up from the interior.
On, and near the water, at this place, tho
mysterious music is frequently heard, both in
night and day, when the winds are sleeping,
and stillness is on the wave. This has giv
en rise to the poetical superstition, that the
mournful melody is the perpetual echo of the
death song of the Indians: for it is related
that a tribe called the Biloxi were here beset
by numerous enemies ; beseiged in the fort,
and finding death inevitable, but heroically
resolving uot to die by their foes the men
folded their arms, the women' pressed their
children to their breasts, and the whole tribe
walked into the Bay singing their death song,
aud were drowned. At West-Pascngoula,
near McRea's hotel, and just at the conflu
ence of the river and the bay, the sound is
often heard. Few have resided even ashort

alive, who was hanged for
gery.
It may seem strange, but it is no true,
that there are strong opinions a'j that
Fauntlcroy the banker who was sevfears
ago convicted of and hanged for fy, is
now living with his son in Amef So
upon his vestiog the money left by the uncle
in the funds. This Fauntleroy did; but
afterwards sold it out with the exception of
140.
After Fauntleroy's supposed execution one
of the nephews returned, and having been in
formed that a legacy had been beaueathed him,
instituted proceedings against Fauntleroy's
executors to account for that property. A bill
was conjiequeally filed against them in the
Vice Chancellor's Court, and the executors,
in reply, stated their belief that Fauntleroy
was not hanged to death, but that he was alive
with his son in America. Having put in an
affidavit to that effect, the Court granted nine
months to make the necessary inquiries. The
uiue months will terminate uext term. It is
said most confidently that Fauntleroy had a
protection around his neck agaiust tho rope ;
that be was supenoea but for a very short
period, and that as soon as he was cut down
he was immediately conveyed to a house iu
West Smithfield, where the necessary restora
tives were immediately and successfully ap
plied. All this, it is supposed, was done with
the privity of the government and officers of
justice. Be the report well founded or not,
the affidavit was made and the time alluded to
was granted for iusti uting the necessary in
quiries respecting the existence or non-existence
of a wretched man, around whose
neck, it is said, the rope virtually was for 14
years previous to his conviction, as he was a
forger for that period. This is a stra nge
story, fauntleroy may be alive, but we saw
him executed, and saw him hanging for some
time. If the answer to the bill be not put in
till rauntleroy be found alive, wc fear the de
lay will be longer eveu than a chancery suit.
A arriciiltural.
Corn. After culture.
As soon as the corn comes up and gets
about two or three inches high, pass the corn
harrow over it, letting your hands follow the
narrow with small hoes or wooden rakes, to
relieve such of the plants as may be covered
with the earth, and draw a little fresh earth
around all of them.
In a few days turn a furrow from either
side of the corn, and turn it back again.
Hands should also follow the ploughmen to
perform a similar service to the one we have
just spoken of above; and when the worms
and birds have done, thin out your plauts,
leaving two m a hill.
In a week from this period run your culti
vators both. ways through your corn, going as
nigh the plants as possible ; which hy judt
t)tficiStrdy oY7resh eaTtfi" "around the plants'to
chunk starting weeds aud afford nourishment
to tho p l:iit- themselves.
In a week more repeat this operation with
the cultivators, making thorough wink.
When you have gone through wiih this,
ii,.-. ...ni i iZ .i
iiiuu ii viu ub ume to inrow a hill nrouu.l the
plauts on both sides, taking care not to make
it too high, but sufficiently so to afford pro
tection. At the expiration of a week more,
give another such ploughing, and unless the
season s-hould be an extraordinary one, you
may conclude that your corn is laid by for the
season. Should, however, tho weeds start,
then pas? your cultivators through the corn
once more. All deep ploughing after the
corn roots' spread across the furrows should be
avoided ; and, indeed, in every cao where a
clover-ley or gra3s-sward has been turned
down, it never should be disturbed by being
penetrated and turned up with the plough.
Protection Jrom Crows. As there are
many districts of our country where crows
are numerous and prove very destructive to
the corn before nd after it comes up, we will
describe a very simple but most efii ieut scare
crow whi h wc have seen tried with complete
success. It consists in hanging a sheet of
tin on a pole sufficiently long "to be seen from
all parts of the field. Where the fi;dd is large
let these scare-crows bo multiplied on the
more elevated points, so that they may be seen
in every direction ; four will be sufficient fori
a hundred acre field. Every breeze of wind
produces a reflection which proves truly
irresistible to these birds of prey, who invaria
bly take wing and fly away. If suspended
by wire or strong twine, they will remain
permanent during the season, and if taken
care of at its termination, will last many years
indeed while ever their brightness is pre
served, as it is the glitter thereby which the
crows so much dread.
According to the facts believed to be as
certained by Miss Morris, the difficulty at
once disappears. The fly lives only ten days;
during which time it deposites its eggs in the
wheat. The eggs remain unaltered until the
wheat sprouts; and the young worm is then
below the surface of the earth, in a substance
which is ot frozen, and which supplies him
- e i
wnn iooa.
Should the theory put forth by Miss Morris
be sustained, and it appears very reasonable
as well as plausible, nothing more will bo nec
essary to prevent the Hessian fly, than to sow
seed trom uninfected districts. Pure seed
would gradually become contaminated from
the neighboring fields, but a recurrence to this
mode ot seeding would again remedy the evil.
" It would seem," says Dr. Coates, " that the
farmer who uses seed wheat from a district
ravaged or infested with this animal, actonllv
. ' j
commits the absurdity of planting Hessian
flies for the benefit of his next year's crop."
The theory of Miss Morris also explains the
reason why spring wheat frequently suffers
from the fly; since if the fly ova is in the seed,
the worm is ready at the sprouting of the seed,
to follow the growth of the plant, and pass
through its several transformations, in season
to deposit tho egg again in the seed, and thus
perpetuate the mischief.
Some farmers have supposed that the Hes-
ian fly was identically with the one that pro
duces the wheat worm of the Northern States,
and which in many districts for a time com
pelled the cultivator to abandon the growing
of that crop. The observations of M is Mor
ris, however, show that such an opinion is
formed in error. The ovum of the wheat
worm, whether deposited in the berry or mere
ly within the sheath of the kernel, changes to
the larvae state at once, destroys the berry by
feeding upon it, and leaves the head of the
grain for its winter quarters, most usually be
fore the grain is harvested. The Hessian fly
ou the contrary leaves its ovum in the berry,
where it remains until the seed is sown; and
germination furnishes it suitable food as well
as residence.
We are pleased to hear that she is continu
ing her observations, and we shall doubtless
learn more of them in good time. Cultivator.
