Wc haw received fruin a subscriber in Beaufort
au ?inicio from lim Massachusetts Ploughman, re?
lating to lliu nae or tito euler aa a preventive ni
the attacks nf insects, which no publiai] below.
Tho coiiit'iiinicatiou waa lom arded tu Gov. Iii ; -
LOCH, ill Ma .sacho?.etta by tho widow of Ibo lato
Consul-Go'iornl lo Egypt. Tbo writer think* it
might bo used uucccstjtully against tho anny
norm-it would bo ? cheap experiment to try ou
Hie caterpillar, which i-i now doing GO much dam-:-jo
on our Sea Islands :
"Tbo elder is a moat wonderful preventive
aga I nat all kmdn ni in.secla and worms that nu; ii
Hie vegetable kingdom, and al times utterly des?
troy the labor ol man."
"Il was, Uko electricity, discovered liv nooideiil,
and I think Hm agrieulluristH will owo much to

nients ol' Hie inquiring ni iud that discovered Hie

"Ibis preventive ts to bo used in tho following
manner :
Isl. For fruit and other trees, a strong solution
is to lie malle by punine- n quantity of tho older
loaves into a lurgo tub lilied with water, and when

great risk of injuring cither thc blossoms or fruit.
If Ibo nuttlhucils tree waa pin tiled uniotig tho fruit
and nihor trees, it would havo tito samo oiled, sn
that its branches might entwine llionisolvos among
tbosoof tin -fi nit iroo, or lyiug a number nt ita

tim caterpillar and all othor insects would disup
I aar,
2d. Tor wheat eiops and other cereals, but p?r
lijuliirly tho wheal, Milich is ol'lon attacked with
Hie yellows or mildew, occasioned by a small yol
low Hy with blue wings, about thc alzo nf a gnat,
which blown into nu ear of corn aud produces a
small worm, utmost invisible to tho naked oyo, but
when icen with a mioroacopo, it appoars to' bo a
largo yellow maggot, tho color or amber; thia fly ia
very prolitlo, laying as ninny ae eight or ten t ego
st a Hmo; thoy "ure tho greatest enemy to tho corn
croii. Ibo method of liebig tho elder in thia in?
stance is for two men to supply themselves with
Bovoral bushes of tho older, and to go on each
nillo ol' Hie ridges, mid tu uiovu tho bushes from
un 1 to end, and so ou back again, drawing them
well over the oars of corn, beforo limy uro too fur
advanced. 1 think it would bo preferi'de to apply
tbo older before thc cuni ia formed, nnd whenever
then' dies or any other insects uro discovered to
have made HtoiV appearance, und they will im?
mediately evacuate.
?d. Crops of turnips, cabbages, cauliflowers,
publicen, etc., aro fr.-queutly dostroyed when
young by benn; billen ky sumo kind*of insect,
either lites or fleas, mid which may bo prevented
by having au oidor bilah spread so aa to cover
about tho breadth of a ridge, aud diawn onco or
twico over Ibo beds,, forward and backward. Arter
this operation these iusecta disappear.
?ltd. Tho cock chaffer, or oak web, may Hms bo
expelled hy whipping and passing ibo eider bilah
over Hie parts they have assaulted, as they seldom
leave any green thing untouched, but bold nt ab?
horrence tue older tree, and will not approach it.
Olli. Tbo army worm, which is so destructivo to
the cotton piont crop o I think may bo cxpolled, if
used ns is bei em directed lor tho wheat crops, and
thia great and formidable army, which bringa ter?
ror to thc planter, would very soon be compelled
to ron rendel. The dwarf elder (Cullins), I should
think with Hui anny norm would bc preferable, as
it is much more powerful in its odor. Whon they
commence their march onward it would be advis?
able to lay brauchen or thc abulus on thoir road of
march, aa tboy seem to def;, nm thing in their
destructive progress, and it would be well to tako
nbscrvatinus how they would manag? to avoid Hie
elder, which I think will destroy them. This is a
suggestion of my own. a\s this preventive, tho
elder, has liten thoroughly teated, and mel willi
the most wen,In tul success In all thu other cases
herein cited, and as accident han been Ibo inoanB,
through investigation, of doing so much for the
laenelit of man, 1 am tully persuaded thal the agi i

Heenes at thc French Debtors' Prison.
At onndown, writes a Paris correspondent, tho
keeper of the prison for debtors at Cltchv, pro?
claimed Hie joyful intelligence that tho bill waa a
law, and announced that the doors would bo open?
ed at ono minute past midnight. Great waa tho
jubilee ol tho prisoners ; so crest tyan their do
lighl, thc absence of thc sex was not observed in
tho ball (boy extciniiorizcd. There wore ninety
three ini,u!vent debtors then in custody. Among
Hiern tv a s ono Anim ?1-1111. Ho waa unfortunate ill

with Ilia wilo.
A Fruneh creditor discovered him and had him
at i cab d, roekoning upon tho wife's fe?ra sud affec?
tion to nimbin bim to recover tho $1U,U0U duo. Tho
majorit? of men uow-a-davs would roast their

three timos aa much for playing Judas Iscariot,
Our country peoplo declined to roward tho French?
man's boldnoss'ao munificently, and tho husband

Aa tho clock pointed to ono minuto past mid?

CimiPSK DWTI.LINO HOUSES.-In Ibo article on
cheap living, by Ur. Calle, published in tho Jour?
nal liev Connaissances ?(fdirates, wo find Homo
curious tacts concerning thc way in which Ibo
Chinese have solved that difficult problem. They
do not grow much wool, and aro, therefore, be?
hind ns in Hist respect, but they replaco it with
furs and stud's they mako of cotton, hemp, flax
and various othor fibious roota. They bave a
?rod igious variety ol silks, whioh they adapt to
bo different scaaona, and aro cbcap cnongh to bo
within tho reach of tho moat needy. Tho cheap?
ness of f'irs in China strikes Europeans with as?
tonishment. Aa regarda dwellings, thoy uae
stone, brick, wood or bamboo, according to tho
provincos. It ia Imo, their housos liaro no leoo
or upper story, hut their ground floors, built on
an elevated pl?tlorin, aro vory convenient. Moat
large bouses in China have a court, with a south?
ern exposure for tho women of tho family, nod u
gardon 10 tho r|orth. A town entirely bulli ou this
BVstcm, with wido slrocts, enjoys a' much freer
circulation of air (nan o-.tc towns, willi thoir lofty
houses and -ation very narrow streets.
Tn ere is s singular system of rent-paying in
China, and which certainly does not appear to us
tho most- profitable. Tho tenant, on taking pos?
session of (he boase, pays tho proprietor a capital,
Ibo interest of winch, at twelve per cent., is
largo enough to cover tho rorit for three years.
At tho end cf (hat limo tho capital ia return?
ed to tho owner. At Tlen-tsln, a house consist?
ing or six rooms and 1 court, may ho routed
in this wav hr paving down a capital of 600
fiancs, which ia n ?urned al tho end of that
timo, lu thc wav nf food, tho Chin?se have

l'ollti? ni MrrtliiK ni Helton, S. <\
Tho Anderson /?M/iurntvr gives thu following
account vf thc recent meeting at Helton :
In accordance with previous liutlco given in this
parior, a lam r.umber <?{ rithtOBa assembled at
Liciten on Friday tant. '29th ult. Wo wore not pres?
ent, aud nre indebted to others for tho iuformutiou
which follows.
Mal. John 1?. Mooro waa tho Ursl speaker intro?
duced. Ho announced hhnsolf in fovjr o? tho
Convention; declared tho interests nf both racos
woro identical, and that it waa their (tatar to treal
each othor kindly; told tho frcodiuon that their
whito in-; :r li bo ru woro tholr best and onlv friends;
denounced in strong tertnB all secret political so?
cieties; admonished nil cir.we, to avoid n conflicl
of races, and assured tho freedmen that nrraviog a
black man's party against ibo v, bites would'prove
disastrous lo them.
Col. W. D. Wilkes nett addressed Hie audience
in a lengthy speech, mainly directed to thc treed
men, and entering fully into their history ana race
aud introduction into ibis country, giving (hem
praise for past behavior, hut especially during Ibu
late ?ar. For thia mid other reasons, tho whites
of tho South were not univ willing, but anxious to
promote their welfare. Ho favored the State Con?
vention, and declnrod that, wbilo some good sol?
diers wera opposed tu it, ho knew that the great?
est opposition cunio fruin men who woro in soft
pincus during tho lalo wai.
Hon. J. ?S. Murray was then introduced, and in
nu abbi manner explained thc objeot of goveni
inont, and demonstrated the uoccssity fur a stable
?tovcrttnicnt nt thia time. He then'garo a brief
listore of thu introduction of slivery, and nf the
contests to which it lcd. - Having remarked thal
all were citizens uf a uouiinun country, that (iud
had cast our lot together, and that wo must livo
togothor either an Iricuds ol' enemies ; bc thou
warned the colored poop lo against em.?sui ins from
tho North-whose motives wero Hellish, ann whose
designs urn destructive of their best Interests'.
Hu also urged them not to identify themselves
with any party, abarred that Ibo Republican party
deus no ina ted in tm or of white labor, by heavily
taxing cotton, which was unjust mid expressive.
Tho speaker explained thou- civil ana political
rights, aud ''""ls red that wbon tl IOHO wore nee tired
to them, their do-tiny would bo in their own
bauds, and that, with industry, economy, educa?
tion ami moderation, a bright career wau before
them, but lr they recklessly made tho white man
mi eucmy, und brought about a oontliet ul' races,
their destruction waa cortatn.
Hon. J. L. Ocr aaa thou introduced, and ad?
dressing thu whiles, advised them to' register
ami vote for u Cunvcutiun, as it was folly and mad?
ness to attempt lo defeat that object. There wero
Ul,(KM neg i o voters, against 80,1)00 while, mid us
thu Convention would look to tho interest of thu
black man, it could not be expected that ono of
them would vote against it. Hu then admonished
Ibo freedmen that they must bo in lustrums und
anvo their money, and reminded them thal if they
attempt oppression of the whites now while In tho
majority, it might bo Visited upon thom in tho fu?
ture, wbon the balauco of power would bo ?huer?
ont, as no moro negroes worn to bo brought to
this country. Ho disabused their minds of tho
idea that tboy would obtain landa from tho Clov
truuicut, snuiobotrod Ibut thia was not oven de?
sirable upon their part. Thc Governor presented
overy phase of thu issues betoro tho people with
groat loren and ability, and to tba satisfaction of ,
his hearers. Wo regret that fuller notes of btu
speech aro not at our command.
Thu regularly invited speakers having condini- '
ed, it wau requested that J. r. M. Kppiug. of <
I'll ai lesion, bo allowed to occupy tho stand. Thal i
gentleman modo u short apce'ch, endorsing, for
tho most part, tho speech of Uovcruor Urr, but
advised thc blacks to adhere to thu ltopnblicai.
Early, and rocommondad to them tho Union
cague. Ho favored high taxes upon land, but
told thu negroes they wore to bovo ito lauds givon
to them. Ho admonished thom against a eoiitlict
of races, declaring that they would find U'J.COO.OOO
whites against 4.000,000 ot' blacks, and that thu
conflict would be abort, and result in their eal mal?
ua Uun,
Wilson Cook, of Orocnvillo, aud Illus Canadv, of
this village, both freedmen, alan made speeches.
We learn thal Cook told the uogroes they were to
have nu landa given to them, and that confiscation'
would work to the dtitrimenl of their race, lt
would lie the moans of iiiaiiguratiiii; a ivar of
races, mid, in that event, ho would not live in
Ibo State, though ho waa given a thousand ocrea
ol land.
From all thal we can leam, tho speakers in?
dulged in plain talk, without exception. Indeed,
weare assured that (hu diSciiBsiou waa of thai
character to allow no room for doubt as to the
opinions of both while and colored, and wo trust
thal tho impressions made will be deep and last?
ing, especially in regard to tho result of those
extreme measures referred tn by uv,'ry tutu of the
speakers. _
