MP. ED; .OP. : —ln the yard attached to my

plum trees. For e-.'eral year* after the plum
trees came .0 bearing, we had fine crops : bu.

iar with the manner* :-.nd habit* o{ the eur
cuiio, ! did not 1 me him -gith tie- mischief,
but concluded to watch closely the ensuing
spring for the depredator. Ignorant of the
character o r tin.- 1 nea,y of my fruit, 1 deter
mined to try asi'-xpciim!ait with ono of my
trees. I : ■ -.n uh:;'. ! v preuur. i •> pound of

ThisVas early in the morning while the at- <
jaosphbre was perfectly calm. X the fu
if the sulphur a <•,.micd through the trc-% i
watched do; i\ . iho purpos of ascertain- ,
in<' whether m y i l/occ had .ecu produced
upon my unknown foe. .Scarcely had the va
por risen to the topmost branches, whin 1
vel vet several round looking object- falling.
Upon examination, T found them to be in- (
sects which were entire strangers to me.
(fathering up two or three of the nearly de
funct little creatures, 1 showed them to a
friend somewhat skilled in eioniulogy, who at
once pronounced them the dreaded cmrulio—
the scamps that had the preceding year de
stroyed ra\ plum*. Much delighted with the ;
discovery, I immediately renewed the sul
phur fumigation, continuing it for mure than '
a week, and always with success against the ;
foe. The ro-mlt was most gratifying. The
tree which had been fumigated, bore mo a
fair crop of excellent fruit, while 011 the other
scarcely a single plum came to perfection.
This spring the two blossomed profusely. ,
I again caused the sulphur to ! e applied, and :
at tlie period of writing, 1 am rejoicing in the !
prospeot of a fine crop of plums. If you j
think this little experiment is worth present- j
ing to your readers, it is at your service ; and i
; i offered not with any desire to see my name
m print, but with the hope that it may prove I
effectual in ridding our fruit trees u! this
tioubleaome and desir active ii.-ect.

Spent i'un liarL.
MH. EDITOK : in a former number of the I
Journal, I observed an article from one of i
you; correspondents in Cumberland county, i
detailing his method of rendering spent tan- '
bark available for fertilizing purpose*. 1 was
inu. h pleased to find that some one had at
length taken hold of the subject, a- I deem i'
worthy consideration.
For a number of year- past I have 1- eu in
the habit of using spent tan-bark in my gar
den, and with the very be ? results. Then..i) j
on which it was tried was a stiff clay—alto
gether too stilf for succes-fulgardening. The ,
tan was procured from a ii'-ighboi ing tannery,
where it had lain jr ibibly two years, and j
was applied the thickness of four inches over
ihe beds. It was then spaded in to the depth
vi a foot, i boon oh erred the difference. not
only in the s-.il but in th- •. :a ui \--gcia
bics. A new life seemed to ha *';• b -cu im
parted t<. the eo'l. from b iiig .-tiff and ■
cold, ii baeaifte triab!•• and warm, and the ve- i
,ot '• • -.n v.l.c. • tin- ten vva- applied,
wette not only new- vigorous in ganrei, but [
several day* earlier. 1 Jive strong faith in !
■the v.rtac* of spent ian, and hope that the
lgucrun ru jnd'.-c itiili: no entertained in re- J
iuti'.lll.> it will speedily be removed.

inn A aj) Aim
Completely Cured in Three Days,
fly Dr. J. W. C( oner's Vegetable Compound
Fever and Ague Pills.
'Pfll'Sn PU.LS are composed entirety of Vegetable
Substances, and in ninty-riiuecaees nut of every hint
will perform A perfect and Complete curt in three
days. No instance has ever Ixrcu known, where more
than six tints have been required to perform a complete
cure, even in the very worst cases, .'Hi J on lire strongest
constitutions We would earnestly say to all who are
utihcte.l with this distressing disease, to get one box ami
try them. Rr.ii i:i at! cases, two boxes arc warranted to
eure, if taken according to the directions, or the money
returned.
'l'll tse pills not only perform a perfect cure in three
days, but remove the bile and create a healthy irtion of
i the liver, and consequently fortify the system against a
futurcattack.
ALSO.
My Vegetable Aiiti-Dysyicpsia Bitters.
This Med.cine is a certain cure for Dyspepsia in its
very worst forms. Thousands of cases have been coin
; pletely cured fay it within the last year, which have
! heen entirely despaired of by the regular family physi
1 ci.ms. Wc do not recommend it to cure everything—we
recommend it to cure Dyspepsia, and the diseases origi
j uaittig from it, and that it will cure in almost every cafe,
and it i* recommended for nothing else. In many in
stances, even the "worst of cases have been completely
cured in two and three months, but it depends somewhat
j npon the constitution of the patient. We would say to
| all who are afflicted with Dyspepsia, give this medicine
a fair trial, and if it fails to do good, your money tt til be
t retained.
ALSO,
My Vegetable Worui Powders.
This is the most wonderful Worm Destroyer ever
known, and at the same time, so pleasant to take, that
almost every child \\ it! he fond of it, and manv instance,
have been known of children crying for mote after , me
taking it.
This medicine is in the form of a powder, the onU
medicine ever used in that form, and it operates on a
principle entirely different from any other medicine ever
administered by any other physician. It is the only
medicine which has no Wotm-aeed Oil or Turpentine
combined with it, which is believed by all other physi
cians, to be the only two things which will destroy
worms, and these two things combined, together with
castor oil, arc the active principles of all other worm
medicines, which every person who has ever tasted o
' smelted, knows to be the most nauseous of all nauseous
ine :i- tries, and on account of which, there is generally
j something added to destroy this nauseous taste, and iu
order to do this, it must be something stronger than the
medicine its. If. and therefore, it must necessarily destroy
some of its medicinal properties. These powders are
simple and so harmless, that a child may cat a whole box
at once, and it will not he hurt, while at the saint- Unit:,
the principle upon which it acts he'.ag different from any
thing else ever used, it will destroy all kinds of Worms
with a certainty never equaled, it will not only destroy
th- seat worms, or Ascarides, and long, round worui%or
Teres, but is the most effectual medicine for the destruc
tion of the Tape Worm ever known. Ten doses have
brought as many as FIVE Tape Worms t/ornnne person.
It your children have any symptoms of worms, try
these i>o".\ ders, and in nine cases out of ten, you will nev
er use any other. These are also warranted.
These medicines are all separate, and one for each dis
ease, and each for only one disease. They are not re
• commended, as many other medicines are. to cure some
| fifteen or twenty diseases, and ail of different natures,
! but they are each to cure but one disease, and ltal thev
j will do in ninety -nine cases out of every hundred,and
where thee have a fair triai and fail in all cases, the
; money will be returned.
