The {limtingdoa Journal tam auti *who'd. Concerning the Bots. ilary says: "In twenty-seven years' time I have never had a horse to die of the bots. I believe that almost:everybody is convinced that the bets come from the eggs or nits which are deposited upon the horse's hair by that troublesome fly resem bling the bee in color. This has always been my opinion. Now it is generally known that a horse that has the bots does set appear to suffer until he is too far gone to be cnred. To prevent fatal effects of disease, I have made it a practice to give my horses, in the month of September, the following remedy :Of Olive oil, honey and lemon juice, each, two ounces and a half; mix and give these to the horse; the next day purge well. Whether a horse be inclined or not to have the bets this remedy will do him no harm." A correspondent of the Department of agriculture says: "It appears from re lurks by different writers that none know of anfieftilin remedy. I know of a remedy that is safe and certain,.discovered in the following way : About thirty years ago a friend of mine losj by bots a fine horse. He took from the sttlinach of the dead horse about a gill of hots and brought them to my offioe to experiment upon. He"made preparations of every remedy he had heard of, and put some of them into each. Most had no effect, a few effected them slightly, but sage tea more than anything else ; that killed them in fifteen hours. He conclu ded that he could kill them by using nitric avid ; but it had no more effect upon them than water; the third day they were as lively as when put in. A bunch of tansy was growing by my office. fie took a handful of that, bruised it, added a little water, scpteezed out the juice, and put some in; they were dead in one minute. Since then I have had it given to every horse I have seen affected with bots ; and have never known it to fail of giving entire re lief. My friind had another horse affect ed with hots several years later. II• gave him the tansy in the morning and a dose of salts in the evening; the next morning he took up from the excretions three half pints of hots." Value of Covered Manure At various times we have pointed out to our readers the profits resulting from covering manure, instead of allowing it to get soaked by the rains or dried by the Nan, as is generally done, We have given this advice from what we have actually seen. When rough sheds have been built to cover tWe manuee heap the crops fer tilized by this pile have been increased in productiveness sufficient to pay for the shed covering the first year. We have never seen any exact figures of the pro portionate value of covered manares, that we remember until the following, which we find by Lord Kincade, a Scotch land owner and farmer. They present the best statetnent possible, we think, of the ad vantages of the plan. Four acres of got &oil were measured, two of them with ordinary barnyard ma nure and two of them with an equal quantity of manure from the covered shed The whole was planted with potatoes.— The products of each acre were as fol lows : Potatoes treated with barn-yard ma- nitre : One sere produced two hundred and seventy-two bushels ; one acre produced two hundred and ninety-two bushels. . Potatoes =mired from the covered sheds : One acre produced four hundred and forty-two bushels ; one acre produced two bundred and ninety-two bushels. Potatoes minured from the covered sheds : One acre produced four hundred and forty-two bushels ; one aere produced four hundred and seveoty•one bushels. The next year the land was sown with wheat, when the crop was as follows : Wheat on land treated with barn-yard manure : One acre produced forty-one (41) bush els, eighteen pounds, (of 61 lbs per bush el.) One acre produced forty•two (42) bush els, 4thirty-eight pounds, (of 61 it s per bushel.) Wheat oa-laud manured from covered sheds One acre produced fifty-five (55) bush els, five pound, (of 61 lbs per bushel.) One acre produced fifty eight (58) bush els, fo►ty•seven pounds, (of 61 lbs per bushel ) The straw also yielded one-third more upon the land fertilized with the manure from the covered stalls than upon that to which the ordinary manure was applied. Saving Seed Cern. One of the great difficulties experienced in the cultivation of corn is the failure to get a good stand. In nine cases out of ten this arises from injury to the seed while hardening; for corn thoroughly ripe and dry at the time cold weather sets in will remain intact and germinate as prompt ly at planting as any other ordinary grain. Our plan, says the Western Farm Journal, has been in fields thoroughly ripe, when busked, to have a man at the wagon when unloading to throw out such ears as ap pear all right. These should he thrown into narrow cribs, well protected from the weather, and in an airy.situation where they may have the full benefit of the sun and v.ind. As soon as convenient the corn should be sorted, saving only such as is perfect in *very respect, and put where it will become thoroughly dry before hard weather comes. If corn is damp on the cob, freezing and thawing will swely injure the chit or germ. In this case we have found it of great benefit to smoke it lightly, say for one day, thus assisting in drying. This ha been practiced by the Indians from time immemorial, and when they do not smoke it they bury it during the winter in some dry spot, thus securing an even tem perature and uniform moisture. What ever plan is pursued for saving seed corn it must not be placed in cotnpact masses, else injury is liable to follow. Once dry and kept so it is secure. Now, if none but the good ears are saved for planting, you will have no difficulty in its germinating, and as like produces like, increased yield must fbllow selection from the best just as sure ly as it does in the animal kingdom. It will pay. Miscellaneous THE MEDICINE THAT CURES VEGETINE. Taking into consideration the character of its vonehers , the history of its cures and the illlntellSO increasing demand, Ysorilivi: may be fairly entitled the loading medicine of the age. For Scrofula iu the blood, VaIETINE is an infallible remedy, and no person need suffer from tumors, ulcers, and all diseases arising from impure blood, if VEGETINE is used according to directions. There is not a case of Serofala in existence that VEGETINE will not cure, pro vhied, however, the vital functions have not lost their lower of action, all that may be said to the contrary not wit Itqauding. VEukut.ts is pleasant to the taste, mild in its influence, and absolute in its action on disease, as the following uu qucstiouablo evidence will show. PAID NEARLY 8400.00 ! ! STEVENI, EST Dear Sir—When about six months old I was vaccinated. The parties who were vaccinated from the same virus died from the humor. The humor spread over me to such au extent that I was rolled in bran to prevent me from scratching my person. The disease Really settled in my head. I remained in this condition about twenty years, troubled all the time with sores breaking in my head and dischlgi , g corruption from my ear, At this time a small- el appeared on my neck, gradually increasing in size until a tumor formed of such immense size I could see It by turning my eyes downward. All this time I was taking various remedies for my blood without any substantial benefit. I then went to a prominent physician in Boston, who, during his treatment of six months, lanced the tumor eight times, which cost me nearly $-200. This left me with a rough, aggravated sore, without at all diminishing the size of the tumor, and In a sickly feeble condition. I consulted another physician in Natick, who, after consid erable time, succeeded in healing the sore without re ducing the size. At this point I commenced to use VEGT TINS, through the earnest persuasion of a friend. After I had taken this medicine about one week I experienced wonderful sensations. My whole body seemed t be un dergoing a radical change, until finally, the tumor broke and discharged frightful quantities. Front this tints it decreased in size until the bunch disappeared, but my neck still bears the ugly scars of the sore and lance. I am now !nattily and strong and able to work every day. I will also mention that I have been an acute sufferer from inflammatory rheumatism ever since I can remember, until commencing the use of VZOETINF., when almost im mediately all rheumatic pains conned. This statement I volunteer for the purpose of benefiting other suffering humanity, and you will confer a favor by giving it as much publicity as thought proper. Very gratefully, 0, M. SAVELS, Ashland, Mass. WHAT IS VEGETINE ? It is a compound extracted from barks, roots and herbs It is nature's remedy. It is perfectly harmless from any bad effect upon the system.

Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every subject. Printed from new type, and illustrated with Several Thousand Engravings and Maps. The work originally published under the title of TUE NEW AREPICAN CYCLOPEDIA was completed in 1863, since which time the wide circulation which it has attained in all parts of the United States, and the signal developments which have taken place in every branch of science, literature and art, have induced the editors and publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough revision, and to issue a new edition entitled Tus AMERICAN CYCLOPh:LIA. Within the last ten years the progress of discov ery in every department of knowledge has made a new work of reference an imperative want. . . . . The movement of politieal affairs has kept pace with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful application to the industrial and useful arts and the convenience and refinement of social life. Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own country, which was at its height when the last volume of the old work appeared, has happily been ended, and a new course of commercial and industrial activity has been commenced. Large accessions to our geographical knowledg, have been made by the indefatigable explorers of Africa. The great politilal revolutions of the last decade, with the natural result of the lapse of time, have brought into public view a multitude of new men whose names are in every one's mouth, and o whose lives every one is curious to know the par ticulars. Great battles have been fought and im portant sieges maintained, of which the details are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in the transient publications of the day, but which ought now to take their place in permanent and authen tic history. In preparing the present edition for the press, it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring down the information to the latest possible dates, and to furnish an accurate account of the most recent discoveries in science, of every fresh production in literature, and of the newest inven tions in the practical arts, as well as to give a succinct and original record of the progress of po litical and historical events. The work has been begun after long and careful preliminary labor. and with the most ample re sources for carrying it on to a successful termina tion. None of the original stereotype plates have been used, but every page has been printed on new type, forming in fact a new Cyclopsedia, with the same plan and compass as its predecessor, but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, and with such improvements in its composition as have been suggested by longer experience and enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which are introduced for the first time in the present edition have been added not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give lucidity and force to the explanations in the text. They embrace all branches of science and of natu ral history, and depict the most famous and re markable features of scenery, architecture and art, as well as the various processes of mechanics and manufacturers. Although intended for instruction rather than embellishment, no pains have been spared to insure their artistic excellence; the cost of their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admira ble feature of the Cyclopedia, and worthy of its high character. This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed in sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing about 800 pages, fully illustrated, with several thousand M'ood Engravings, and with numerous colored Lithographic Maps.
