n the enemy made his last iate charge, which, had it been suc cessful, would have utterly annihilated our army. But Bragg, glory-covered Bragg, galloped his battery into position —his guns were brought to bear—the eye of his chief was on him—' A little more grape' was added—the enemy was so close, that the panting of his pressed chargers could be heard —and then pealed the deafening thunder of those six. guns —then rolled out an hundred iron deaths from every brazen -T-. f 1T cf.l like a forest strickeu by a gale—they are checked—see that dashing rider in their very front, riding to and fro amid the iron shower, urging them on. — By heavens! 'tis a woman ! They rally—again the tide of war rolls on, led by the dauntless heroine. Once more the fearful shower of grape and can ister sweeps down rank after rank of the coming toe. Death's scythe sweeps away wide swaths of victims. Again the foe is checked—the Amazonian leader bows for ward in her saddle, and, as the few who yet live in that devoted column, By in wild confusion, her coal black steed, in terror, bears his dying mistress into our lines. The horse is stopped —she is lifted from the saddle—but a fierce glare is in her eye —a curse, a bitter curse is on her lips— she dies—and HAGARITA, the Ranchero's Daughter, i 3 no more. Had the Mexican men possessed one half the courage of their women, our vic tories would have been more dearly bought. Do Birds Understand what they Learn? —And now comes the question whether birds do not, in some degree at least, un derstand what they learn. It cannot be denied that, in a state of nature, their notes and intonations are significative to each other, and convey intelligence on which they act; nor does it require much observation or credulity to lead one to the conclusion that they are not altogether ig norant of the meaning of the words which they are taught. They apply them, at least, very ofen, very opportunely. We knew of a parrot that was fond of a bone —not a good thing to give a parrot, by the way —and when the bird bad picked it, he would whistle to, and call by name, the spaniel that was suffered to run about the house. When the dog came, as he always .did .when within hearing, the parrot would <lrop .the bone out of the cage; and the dog .very complacently picked it up, and proceeded there and then to feed upon it, the parrot lookng down on him, and cal ling him "Pretty Beau," ever and anon du ring the operation. When dinner was brought, the parrot would climb up the bars of the cage, and there remain crying -"Bring Poll's sop," till something was giy •en to it. If a bottle of ale or wine was brought in it would say, "Waiter, waiter, a bottle ef wine and a cigar!" This par rot, which was an excellent talker, had not been taught to call the dog; but he had been in the habit of hearing him cal led to receive bones and bits, and did like wise.—Fraser's Magazine. Great Drought in Germany. —Accounts from # tbe Hartz mountains state that the district of C'lausthal is suffering from an unprecedented dearth of water; the natives had left off washing their hands and faces more than once a week, the authorities of the place having imposed a fine of two thalers on all laundresses who persist in pursuing their trade. Great quantities of cattle were dying from thirst, and a few of the community, who are unable to forego cleanliness, use beer to perform their ablu tions.

The image of a nymph I loved Some twenty years ago. The blushing cheek, the sparkling eye. The hair of raven flow— Ah, how they set my heart ablaze Sonic twenty years ago. I spoke—her answers did not much Of wit or wisdom slipw— But thus the lovely Mary talked Some twenty years ago. What! could a shallow heart like this My heart in tumult throw ? I must have been little green Some twenty years ago. I met the lovely Mary since— ller charms have vanished though ; Her wit and wisdom are—the same As twenty years ago. I look upon her faded cheek Until my feelings glow, And thank her that she scorned my love Some twenty yfcars ago.

This destructive insect is one of the great est drawbacks on the fruit culture of Penn- ■ sylvania. Its stealthy habits arc such that it j requires the greatest care to enable one to ; change its progress, which could nevertheless be accomplished if a simultaneous effort were j made by all the fruit growers in a large dis- | trict. Such an undertaking, by diminishing i its emigration from neighboring farms, would i materially prevent its injurious effects; and if the proper attenticn was paid to the sub- ; ject all over the country, its final destruction 1 would be more than probable. The eggs are deposited by the perfect in- i sect close to the ground about the latter part | of June or beginning of July, during the j night, and the grass around the trees protects ! the eggs from being found by the birds. In ' a very few days the sun hatches the youug larva', which soon work their way into the trunk, where they can discovered by the 1 plugs of woody fibres ejected through the j hole. Iu the second year the insect assumes i its perfect form, leaving the trunk during the night, about the latter part of May or begin ning ef June, when it goeo forth to lay eggs . for a new generation. The nocturnal habits of this insect make it j the more difficult tor the common farmer or I I orchardist to secure that full acquaintance with it which is necessary to be able to stop ; its ravages. The only sure way to destroy these insects is to attack them in the larvae ! state. During summer they must be hunted ; ; up, and cut out with a gouge so thoroughly i that none remain. j To guard orchards from further depreda- i ■ tions, procure thick hardware paper and jover • the trunk to the height of one foot above the ' | ground, and one or two inches below it. — j Young orchards protected in this way can be j ; kept clear of this troublesome and destructive ; pest. The paper covers must be renewed 1 i annually, and no later than the beginning of j : May. This can be best accomplished by re ! moving the earth from the trunk with a gar- j den trowel, and winding the paper and tying i ; it close to the trunk to prevent the beatle from , getting behind it. If the paper be coated j with tar as far as it is in contact with the ground, so much the better. After the paper is thus applied the ground ought to be leveled j i around the trunk. If the perfect insect de posits its eggs on this paper they will dry up when hatched for want of nourishment, since the larvae live on the soft bark of the tree ! first while young, rtud on the soft wood when older. Should they be capable of locomotion at this stage, they must go above the paper to ; enter the tree (which I have not found to be I the case in three years' close ebscrvation) or starve; and should any enter above the paper unprotected by the grass, the birds would . soon : them the eyes of the careful fruit grower , would detect them at a glance in passing the | trees, when with a knife the mischief could j 8 ion be remedied, and the trifling wound i would soon heal over again. With these paper covers I protected a young orchard for the last three years. With a sin- I gle exceptiou only, not a borer gained foot hold, and he secreted himself under the straw band by which the tree was secured to a stake J three or four feet from the ground, where the j fruit grower should frequently look during j summer. If any ono considers all this too much trouble, he ought to mako up his mind not to eat fruit of his own growing in a compara tively short time.- Cor. of Am. Agricultural. Wolf's Hanover Gloves.
