A highly respectable Baptist minister of
Kentucky, still living, related to us tbe
following anecdote : He bad just com
menced preaching and had for a few years
lieen married and house keeping. He was
in humble circumstances and of limited
education modest and retiring to a fault.
It was with great difficulty he could Rum

lawyer, came to the neighborhood of our

the troops were exposed to a severe fire
from the Burman guns at Shway Dagnng
and Sale's Pagoda. About half-past two
Gen. Godwin formed a storming party to
seize the height of Shway Dagong. He
had lost the services of all his aids, they !
having been killed, wounded or stricken 1
down by thc sun. The storming party,
led by Capt Lntte, rnshed up thc hill
and then up the great stairway, exposed
to a shower of musketry. MaCy fell on

'uersing the tubers for four 0? five days
aminouiatea water. Une ounce of
.iquor ammonia, to one pint of water, are
the proper proportions to be observed.
After the potatoes have thus been im
mersed, they should be spread and dried.
The cost of this is but trifling, and pota
toes ouce f hotoughly subjected to the pnj
cess, will keep six, eight or ten mouths
as souud aud good, as whoD taken from
the soil When it is desirable to transport
them to other climates, say to the tropics,
it is an object of great importance to pre
vent their sprouting, and for this purpose
they are often stflfi'crged for days in a
strong solution of common sa!t and water.
This stops the iusipient vegctatiou quite
effectually, but the salt must be cutirely
freed fio'-it thtm, which requires much
care and man? siiosi-nuent hlnt?nna
many changes of water to accomplish it
thoroughly. Rubbing ont the eyes is a
tedious process, end can never be effectu

destroys tue germinative instiina, only
temporarily arrests its action, and in warn!
we!Uher, requires to be repeated every

is, it actually renders the tubers ntoe
