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

TWENTY YEARS AGO.^
I met a girl the other day
Some twelve years old or so.
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.
Fond boy, who now wouldst gladly die
To please some simpering Miss—
Who knows what thou wilt think of her
Some twenty years froinjhis?

TIIE APPLE TREE BORER.
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.

BULL'S SARSAPARILLA,
POT OP IN
FULL QUART BOTTLES,
And containing the strength of six times as
much pure Honduras Sarsaparilla as any
other similar preparation in America.
A FEW bottles of this SarsapariUa, put up 1
several years ago, rendering it the more
valuable, (as all well-informed druggists know j
that age improves it,) have been deposited at j
the drug store of CHARLES RITZ, in Lewistown, ;
where they are offered for sale at three-fourths
the regular price, namely 75 cents per bottle.
It has been a well established fact for years
past that SarsapariUa, when pure and properlv
prepared, was the only true panacea for all di
seases originating from an impure state of the
blood, the use of mercury, intoxicating drinks,
evil habits in youth, barrenness, Ac. We bold
Iv assert that JOILV BULL'S FLUID EX
TR.4CT OF SARSAPARILLA is the only pre-
paration before the public that is prepared on
strictly scientific principles and of uniform
strength. The sarsaparilla is purchased with
out regard to price, and every pound, before
being used, is subject to the strictest chemical
tests, and its genuineness ascertained before
beina: used. Bull's Sarsaparilla also contains
the virtues of several other valuable medical
roots, together forming the best compound, and
producing the greatest curative agent in the
known world! This medicine, when used ac
cording to directions, has cured
Scrofula or king's Evil, Cancers, Tumors, Erup
tions of the. Skin, Erysipelas, Chronic Sore
Eyes, Ringworm or Tellers, Scultl Head,
Rheumatism, Old Sores mul Ulcrrs,

other diseases tending to produce
CONSUMPTIOy,
Liver Complaint, Female Irregularities and
Complaints. Sick and Nervous Headache, Low
Spirits, Night Sweats, Exposure or Imprudence
in Life, Chronic Constitutional Diseases, and is
a spring and summer drink and general tonic
