T1IE FALL OF CARDINAL WOL8LY.
Farewell, a long farewell Jo all my grcatucss
This is the .Slate of Maine ; to-day in.in puts
forth
The louder leaves of hope, to-morrow blossoms,
Ami bears his blushing honors thick upon him ;
The third day conies a potato bug ;
Tho fourth day this bug scuds for his family
And gets reduced rates 011 the railroad
For a colony of his neighbors.
The sixth day a grasshopper and a Juuebug
l'ut in appearance, and, seeing that
It is a fine opening for young people,
They send tor all their kith and kin,
Who settle around the poor cuss like
The seventeen year locusts in Egypt :
And when he thinks, good, easy man,
Full surely his greatness is a ripening,
'They eat him up slick as a whistle.
Not even sparing the brass buckle 011 the.
Pack of his pants !
1 have ventured, like little wanton boys
That swim ou bladders,
These many summers in a sea of glory,
lu full view of railroad trains,
Hut at last I've come to grief;
My high-blown pride at length broke under,
And lias left me, weary and old with service,
aud
Afflicted v/itli curvituro of the spine, ringbone,
Spavin, poll-evil, rheumatism, unable to swim,
Aud at tho mercy of a rude stream
'That must forever hide me !
Vain pomp and glory of this world, I hate ye!
1 feel my heart new opcucd ; 0I1, how wretched
Is that poor cuss that hangs on
Princes' favors, and cxnccls an annointment '
There is betwixt that "smile" he would aspire
to, i
That swoet aspect of princes and his ruin.
More bangs and tears than wars or women l.avci
And when he falls, lie falls like I.ucifer
Learning to skate, never to hope again !
?Oil City Derrick.
JOHN AND AGNES,
If Mrs. .lenks wore widow .leaks,
And honest John were free.
At Hymen's altar firmly linked,
Lo ! what a tcam they'd be !
If poker were a game of lies,
The stake a nation's fate,
>ure this would bo the sort of pair
To play and beat a straight.
BERMUDA GRASS
"I planted last February 05 acres in
.Bermuda grass, >u rows 8 feet wide and 3
foot in drills, find have since planted a row
of peas iu each middle, and cultivated sonic.
I want to plant more grass next season. If
there is a better plan where plants are
scarce, L would like to kuow it.
I want to sow the lands/J'alrcady set in
grass, in wheat and oats next fall, manuring
some. Will it iujuro the grass to plough
it up at that season? The grass is what 1
want.?N. T. Luthcrsville, (Ja., June 10,
1S78."
Answer:?Bermuda grass is becoming a
subject of so general iutercst, tliat a rather
more extended account of it than the inquiry
in band calls for, seems appropriate. In the
lirst place, it is a tropical plant, and docs
not perfect seed in this country. A great
many seem not to have learned this fact.?
We have very frequent inquiries for seed.
It is propagated exclusively by pieces of
its underground growth, Whilst the portion
abovo ground is killed in the winter,
, the life of the plant is preserved until the
fl/Jt next spring, by numerous underground
stems. These mniify in every direction
through the soil, and as soon as warm
weather sets in?say in April or May?
send up stalks to the surface. From these
"runners" spread in every direction, caking
root where circumstances favor, something
after the manner of strawberries, and from
these in turn again, underground stems arc
developed. It forms ultimately a very
dense sward, which neither tramping nor
very close grazing damages, for the obvious
reason, that the underground stems arc ever"
present, and ready to send up a now growth
above ground. Drought arrests its growth,
but upon the advent of rain it at once
springs up into new life. A decided "pest"
in cultivated lands, it is for summer pasture
(.May to October inclusive) not only unrivallod,
but incomparably superior to anything
else; and on rich bottom lands produces
a large quantity of the very best hay.
The distance at which Ilcrmuda should
bo planted to secure a thick sward in shortest
time, has not been determined by careful
experiment. If the soil is rich and
damp, it spreads more rapidly than when it
is poor and dry. A wet scasou is also more
favorable to its spreading than a dry one?
the extending "runners" taking root at
every joint on a wet surface. If plants arc
abundant it is best to put them out thickly,
say in checks 2 l'cct each way, that they
may quickly take possession of the land,
not giving intruders an opportunity to get
in. With a scarcity of plants, aud these
set out at wiue instances apart over a wnoic
field, it is doubtful whether anything would
be gained in time, over inuking two or more
thick plantings, in successive winters, on
portions of the land. Under almost any
plan or treatment, it will however in a comparatively
short time take possession of land,
unless ploughed during dry, hot weal her,
or shaded by other growth. Tho planting
and cultivatiug of peas in the middles will
do no harm, if the ploughing is dono when
the ground is damp, but if the spreading
grass is rooted up, by cultivating the peas
in dry weather, it is liable either to be
killed or to bo retarded in growth and
spreading.
It is a common belief that one of the
host methods of eradicating licrmuda, is to
plough it up in winter, and expose it to the
i? CI 1 1 <1 I Ml. 1 .1 i
lrce/.yjj- oome is uouuuess kuicu mat way,
but in our observation uot a great deal.?
That portion fully exposed on the surface
of tlie soil may bo killed, but most of that
eovered up escapes. After the winter rains
set in and the ground continues damp,
ploughing will not injure your Hermuda
much, but fall ploughing in dry weather
may destroy much of it. Aside from this,
however, if you wish rapid growth of lJorinuda,
do not slxtiir it with a small grain
crop. Continuous shading by grain followed
by peas (broadcast.) is one of the
most effective means of eradicating Herm

THE BATTLE OF DINGLE'S MILL.
ONE OF THE LAST FIGHTS OF THE WAR.
A correspondent oi' the Acira ami Courier
gives tho following interesting account
of one of the last and most during battles
in the late waY :
The mouth of February, 18G5, was full
of anxiety for the people in tho lower portion
of South Carolina. Sherman had entered
the State jproui Ceorgia, and already,
the glare of burning homes lit up tho midnight
sky and marked the track of his army.
About this time Potter's Division left
Cleorgotown and commenced its march, pass
ing through Clareudou, Sumter auu Kershaw
Counties ami ou iuto North Carolina.
This force numbered some 15,000 troops of
all arms. There was literally nobody to oppose
them and they advanced leisurely.
For several days the good people of Manning
had been in a fever of excitement.?
All sorts of rumors filled the air. The old
men and boys got out of the way, the women
and children were scared out of their
wits. At last the long-expected dreaded
day cauio and the Yankees were approaching
the devoted little village. It was on
Sunday. Ou that moruing two Confederate
scouts (both now living,) stopped at a
friend's house to rest a while, giving their
horses in charge of a trusty ucgru2\vit,< instructions
to bring them up oif^Thc first
alarm.
Early in the afternoon an alarm was
raised way down the street, and there cauic
the negro with the horses full tilt, hotly
pursued by a dozen or so "blue coats." lie
managed to get them to the gate, where
one of the scouts was waiting for him, and
vaulting into the saddle in the very teeth
of the Yankees he was off in a twinkling.
lie was hotly pursued, and had many
shots fired at him. One of his pursuers,
an officer, got in short range of him and
ordered him to surrender. The scout, with
one glance over his shoulder, quickly turned
in bis saddle and brought his carbine to
bear. A flash and report immediately followed,
and the officer tumbled from his
horse and lay dead in the street. The ball
entered his mouth and passed through his
braiu. At his fall the troops way in the
rear shouted, "We've killed one d?d rebel
!" but when they came up and found ic/io
was killed, bitter imprecations burst from
them and they swore they would be revenged.
The dead officer was carried to
the residence of Mr. Jllakely, prepared for
burial, and was buried in that gentleman's
flower garden, and and to-day he is still
there sleeping his last sleep. 11 is name
was Jones l'ratt, a lieutenant in J'otter's
army. The Yanks left Mauuing early
next morning?but they left it in nithos?a
heap of smoking, smouldering ruins.
Sixteen miles above Manniug, in Sumter
County, there is a little mill pond known as
"Diuglc's Mill." The stream is crossed by
a very narrow causeway, about a hundred
and fifty yards long. Here some live hundred
Confederates?old men, beardless boys
and convalescent soldiers?determined to
dispute the ground with the overwhelming
thousands. Well, they did it, and this is
about how it was done :
There was a young soldier there from
Louisiana hv tho name of I'auipereau. lfe
had one heavy field* piece, and this he
placed in such a position as to rake the
causeway. At the same time the gun was
concealed from view. The Yankees had
no idea there was any otic to oppose them,
the Confederates being concealed by the
hugo cypress trees and undergrowth, and
behind a rail fence, just on the edge of the
swamp. The Yankees soon came on and
struck the causeway. Pampcrcau waited
until they were in point blank range, then
opened on them. That discharge of grape
played havoc with the head of the advancing
column, and so completely were the
enemy taken by surprise that they retreated
instantly. J ne i;onieucrntes were pouring
a galling lire of musketry into tlieiu from
all sides. Very soon the Yankee cannon
began to roar, the shells and balls came fast
and furious, but all too high. The gunners
never did get the range.
The Yankees now found what a small
force was opposed to them, and deploying
on each side of the causeway, after great
difficulty and loss of life, managed to got
through the boggy swamp, and took the little
foreo in Hank, pouring a fearful fire into
them as they came into the open field.?
They fought bravely, but wore soon overcome
and had to retreat the best way they
could. The battle of Dingle's Mill was
over.
The Yankocs lost upwards of a hundred
and fifty killed and wounded. The ConIcdcratcs
some thirteen killed and twenty

body was found beneath his gun, showing
how he had died. I have often wondered
if bis family, away down in Louisiana, have
over known how* he died.
Here, too, fell the gallant young McQueen,
(son of Rev. Dr. McQuocn,) almost
in sight of his home, lie was buried on
the ground, but very soon after his body
was moved to Sumter. I have often seen
the grava where ho was first buried.?

i>?arer to me unu, young >> iiiio Keener,
of Charleston, was killed, ami lying very
near him was old man Long, dead, with his
sixty years of honor on his bloody brow.?
Tvo or three nights before the fight, young
llecder, with Rome companions on the way
to their command, went out of Manning
singing, "Hut O 'Twill be sweet to remember."
Poor fellow, there is nothing left
his friends now but a sweet remembrance
bow gloriously he gave up his young life in
defence of his home. And it will "ho sweet
to remember" all those noble fellows who
died at "Dingle's Mill." Maiisiiam*.

IIow to Raise Lakoe Stkawrekiuks.
?Pros Wilder, the famous horticulturist
when asked how lie succeeded in growing
sucli beautiful strawberries, replied :?
''Three things are ncccssory?First, you
should give them plenty of water. Hut
this will uot answer unless you observe the
second requisite, viz ; give the plants a little,
more water. Hut with all this labor and
care you will fail in obtaiuing the best results
if you fail in the third condition, viz:
<jivc the jtlants more witter." The strawber^bed
once well established, ^ater is
Ih^jPliy lerfilizcr needed to make mammoth'
berries.
Treatment op Heaves.?Heaves is
often an hereditary or constitutional disease,
depending upon s narrow and ill-formed
chest; at other times it results lroui ncive
wcakuess, and from indigestion, or it may
be a resuil of all three combined. It is,
therefore, seldom successfully treated by
medieinc. The course usually followed
with success is to give moist, cut feed ; but
little corn, feeding crushed oats chiefly, in
its place; to give with the feed four drains
of sulphate of iron, with au equal quantity
of ground gentian root, and to ho careful
uot to overload the stomach with either
food or wat<^
To Km a Harn op Hats.?The method
is as follows : Procure several empty bnr'"I
^ ^ a quantity of bran or grain in
them, and leave them for the rats to feed
in without disturbance for a few days.?
Then remove the bran, and half lill the
barrels with water, covering the surface
with bran. The rats will go into the barrels
without hesitation, and inanv will be
' J
caught. To prevent the increase of rats,
avoid having any hiding places, leaving the
Hoors often to the entrance of cats, raise all
the sheds and buildings above ground on
posts, and have no wooden lloors.
If a person were suddenly asked what
"Ghoughplhcighltceau" spcliod, the chances
are that in the Hurry of the moment lie
would say he didn't know ; yet Prof. Knowlton,
of San Francisco, says it spells "potato."
Ilo spells the word according to the
following!rule x "Gh stands for p, as you'll
find fvowihe last letters in hiccouirh.?
Ough stands for o, as in dough. 1 'litli
staudsfor t, as in phthisis. High stands for
a, as in neighbor. Ttc stands for t, as in
cozettc, and cau stands for o, as in beau."
Sowing Guass in Woodland.?There
are many opportunities ol providing valuable
pasture lots by seeding wood-lots down
to grass. If the undergrowth and ruhbish
arc removed, aud the ^touud iightly broken
up with - the plow and brfrrow, it may be
seeded without difficulty. Orchard grass,
and Kentucky bluo-grass, thrive best under
timber. A bushel of each may be sown
per acre.
To Poui.tky Kaiskils.? Headers of the
Cultivator engaged in poultry raising, should
heed this useful suggestion : "Put a tnblcspo-.^^Uvif
s>i!phur in the nest as soon as
the hens or turkeys arc set. Tbo heat of
the fowls causes the fumes of the sulphur
to penetrate every part of their bodies, and
every louse is killed, and as all nits aro
hatched within ten days, when tho mother
maves tno nest with ncr brood, sbc ts perfectly
free from nits or lice.
To Preserve Pea ani> 15i:an Seed.
?To preserve pea or bean seed in the
South, all that is necessary is to put the
seed in wood boxes or jars. Soak small
pieces of cork in kcrosine oil or turpentine
and mix with the seed. Put away in a dry
place.
To Kir.r, Hats.?A writer in the Ccrmuutoirn
Telvyraph nays, "the best way
that 1 have found to kill rats, is to get some
good fresh plaster of Paris and put one
pound of jt with three parts of corn meal
(or haiKof each.) Ali rats that cat of
this are sure to die. The amount of grain
destroyed by rats every year is enormous."
Guf.en Corn Puodino?Ouc dozen cars
of corn grated. Three eggs, well beaten,
one pint of sweet milk, half a cupful of
butter, one large spoonful of sugar, pepper
and salt. Hake in a large pudding-pan two
hours.
Every once in a while we hear of a California
woman killing a bear. This is all

Oats on Ckaykm.y Clay Land.?UI
have a lield, mostly rod, gravelly clay land,
cleared 12 or 11 years, lies well and is
washed but little. All the land of this
hind, in this section, makes, while irc.sh,
good corn, wheat or oats. In March of
last year this lield was ploughed (subsoiled)
to the depth of 8 inches, aud planted in
corn late in April. The cultivation was
eleau, thougli^ot jMdue time. 'rhe crop
was a very poOT oot^ No fertilizers were
used. The lield was in corn the year before
also. In September last the crop was cut
off with knives, ami in October 1? bushels
oats per acre were sown on the rough
ground, and turned under and immediately
dragged. The crop is good. You now
nave tne conditions. j no question wun
nic is this : Can I .sow this liold in oats
again this fall, uud with like seasons, &c.,
and expect as good a crop as the present
one, without fertilizers? Or even with a
fertilizer, will the land be in condition,
uicuhauically or chemically, to make a good
crop ? And if you say use a fertilizer,
what kind and quantity for the best and
cheapest ? I have no stable manure nor
cotton seed to use on oats.?Agricultor."
A NSW Kit:?Several consecutive erops of
oats may be grown on the same 'and, and in
some iustanccs they seem to improve from
year to year. The best plan for you, is to sow
down land at once in peas?1 bushels per
acre?with a view to turning under the
vines the last of September, when the oats
may be sown and ploughed in with the
vinos. Sow 150 lbs. acid phosphate per
acre with the peas, and if the season is
favorable, you will have every reason to anticipate
as good a erop the next year as the
presont 0110. The ploughing iu of the peas,
and allerwaids the ploughing in of the
vines, will bring the soil into good mechanical
condition ; and it may bo still farther
improved by several liarrowiugs in different
directions, using a harrow with teeth inclined
backwards, so as not to pull up the
vines to the sur'ace agaiu.?Southern Cultivator.
