' " 1 "'.The R-J.Bur .CheBtprftcld, n. a recent essay read before the 8ociety Hill mploglcil Via rarniuer clot giyea the following as the' method ;a$opted,by him, to destroy this pest of the gardener, and farmer. More nut grass may be killed in a hard winter than an, a ummr.,- To ,do this about the last of dctobcr, take a long' six-' inch shovel and break th land, leaving five inches Unbroken between each furrow, which will leave the land in small ridges ; after solid freeze and thaw, run the same plow in the same furrow ; this will bring a fresh , supply of nuts ; after another freeze and thaw, split .the. ridges open with the same plow, and again after freeze and thaw. 'This last will bo equal to two plowkigs in a winter: and never to be repeated in, the same field, If the sum mer ptowings are kept pp.. If these plow inga have been well done and the freeze hard, the nuts will be killed from eight to twelve inches deep. Commence your summer work about the first of May, and do not allow the grass to bloom, lor al though the bloom may not produce seed, yet the bloom is neocessary to -the forma tion of nuts, no new nuts will form and mature, if the grass is not allowed to bloom. It will not bloom in much less than six weeks, so that it it is regularly plowed every three or four weeks through the summer and fall till frost, it will form no new nuts, and a large proportion of' the old nuts Will die from exhaustion, par ticularly the deepest ones. You niay now sow the land in wheat, ' rye or fall oats, and when they are taken off, break, the land so as to turn the stubble under.'' In about three or four weeks.. (The grass after the first summer's work will be so much weaker, that it will bear to stand a week longer the second, third and fourth nmnun.) continue the process for four summers, and you will not be troubled with nut grass in that field "againj unless it is carried there. It will always bo best if possible, , to have your head lands beyond the nut gross, -with a well defined furrow which the plows may not pass in carrying out ; have the head lands plowed regularly with the field. . ' : Look well, to all trees and stumps in fact, to all places where the plows do ' not reach, and have them hoed regularly; cut from one to one and a half incTias deep, which is the- depth the plows ought to cut. . ,- . The sweeps should be made of steel, and when well set and tempered, ought never to be sent to a smith to be sharpened, but taken to a good stone and ground. Treated thus they will last five times as long, be always bright and smooth, and do. their work well. The advantages of winter, killing are, 1st : The nuts will be killed eight inches deep and there will be less danger of their spreading by the plow. Second, the liv ing nut will be beyond the influence of the sun until late in the 3pring, consequently the blades - will be much later" in. making their appearance, giving time to plant your crop before the work will be needed in the nut grass field. 1 No hogs should be" allowed to go in ' the nut grass field, as they root deep holes, break the roots, and bury the nuts deeper in the earth. . D6 not le discouraged because the grass appears, after each plowing; after three" or four plowings the grass will spring up more feeble and be paler, as a jprighty jffork is going on below,' though you see it not, the work you so much desire, the decay and final destruction of the nut grass. , , . , From 'the KnrafNew Torker. , k f ' .; i.jti'".i i ' -unions ;;-- a.i v j' Those' wbo have tried' the' Potato onion, regard it much more prolific than the pe cies more generally 'cultivated,1 Its large bulbs crowd in clusters 'at the root of the , . .

"' North Carolina, 1869.. Y1 N.B. Terminology of the Grape Vine. Dr. Warder, writing in the Journal of Horticulture,' says that it would be well if poindlogists or horticulturists could agree as to the precise meaning of several terms by which, they., designate the different' parts of the grape vine. , With a view to facilitate the adoption of regular terms which may be used and understood by writers and readers, he presents some terms which be obtained from the works of Dr. Mayr. y -, ".,' '; ",' The definitions of Mayr are simple, ex pressive, and easily understood, and'majr be summed up as follows : ' ' ' . " The stock is the main stem of the vine. ,ThB tem includes all portions that are more than two years old. The cane is the young or bearing wood when from six to eighteen months of age. In short, ', it is a spur. '',.". Lateral canes are the lateral shoots in their second year. , SJwots'areHhe growth of the current year until the fall of the leaf. - Laterals spring ony from the buds of shoots. , . . 2VW are the joints or breaks in the shopts andfcanoB' V Internodes are the spaces between the nodes; both these disappear in the stem Duds or eyes occur only at the node and in the axils of the leaves. Tbey are ar ranged alternately and produce laterals, in which new buds are produced at their base. ! ' . , ' Leatei af e arranged, alternately at each node. - ' "-. r - - Tendrils are situated opposite to the leaves ; they are sometimes wanting. , Bunches or clusters are transformed ten drils. - Pedicles 'are the ultimate subdivisions supporting the fruit. Berries are the fruit, varying in size, shape, and consistence. .: Seeds are the gems of future plants ; the normal number is four ; but many of the best varieties have fewer and some are seedless. Henri Roche Tort on the Em peror. In theRappel of September 1st, Henri Rochefort compares the Emperor to the lion tamer, Lucas. -' He says : " - - "For eighteen vears we have seen a mas ter standing alone in the cage of the ani mals which he subdued. Not only did they not jU. tempt to bite him, but they licked his handstand feet, and showed the most abject submission, sometimes with out any particular reason, and merely to prove to the spectators the absolute ex tent of hia authority, he would stir them up wi(h a red hot iron, and they timidly received the correction. He would make them go through the most humiliating exercises : he would tease and dety them, tread upon them, and use them as sofas aud carpets. This went on so long that, seeiug how much he was feared by his beasts, he brought himself to fancy that tncy loved him.

Mr. W. is a gentleman of high respectability, and during the prevalence of the cholera at St. Louis, watched the result of the application of the Pain Killer for this disease, and his testimony can be relied upon with. the utmost confi dence : - Mt Dkab Sir: lou recollect wnen I saw you in January last, my expressing to you my most sanguine - expectations that DAVIS' PAIN KILLER would have a tremendous sale in the west this season, and my anticipations have been more than realized, and the testi mony of thousands who have used it has been that they would not bo willing to go to bed at tnat tney wouia not 00 wiums ; night without It in the house On the appearance of the "c erasaremedy, thftt many who purchased it remarked . to me that they had no fears or dread of the cholera as long as they had the Pain Killer by them, and hundreds took it daily as a preventative, for' no person ' can have a -derangement of the bowels or diar rhoea if they use this medicine. This was the security and confidence bf hundreds acquain ted with it, and when their friends were at tacked with the Cholera they would adminis ter the remedy in large quantities,' and in every case when it has been taken in any of the first stages of thisdisease.it has proved Successful. , , ;;; I consider it an infallible remedy. I have not heard of any Individual ' In any famUy who used the Pain Killer when attacked but speedily recovered. .j " A i The clerk informed me that he administer ed it to persons when colcLpr in tje, cramps, and it gave immediate relief,' hut still it should be given quickly, for when the dis charge of " rice-water" has begun, the hope of life has fled. Should this disease make its appearance among you, as in" all probability it will, be not alarmed t you and all others there have the remedy, aud I am confident if cholera wni occur m your ity. the Pain Killer is used, not a single death by t'U lAH- ReSpeotfuaiy yours, I A.
