Walker, Snperinten dent of the censns, with a view to secur ing greater accuracy and uniformity m the flgricnlinral statistics to be compil ed for the tenth censtis baa just issued a circular setting forth the aims and ■wishes of the burea with regard to the method of arranging snch statistics. As the ennmeration of the c ensus of 1380 commences on the first of Jnne and closes on orbeforethe30tu,nll the crops which are gathered once a year will fall pretty clearly on one side or the other bf the dividing line. Thus the cotton crop reported in the census will be that of 1879, gathered in the fall of that year; while the wool dip or “wool 1 *crop”£will be that of the. spring of 1880, except in ■ portions of California andT exas, where both a full and a spring clip are secured. For certain of the produc tions ;of agriculture, however, there is no harvest iu the usual sense of that term, but the product is gathered week - urday by day as itmatures. Milk, but ter, cheese and meat fall into this class. Iu view of the requirements of the law, and of the great importance of accurate statistical information relative to agri culture, it is deemed highly desirable that farmers should prepare themselves \ iil advance to give the information with promptness and accuracy. It is urgent ly recommended, therefore, that agri cultural journals and the officials of ag ricultural societies and clubs give pub- publicity to the announcement, and that all persons engaged in agriculture who shall receive this circular or see it the public prints make notes from time to time of the quantities and values of their several crops gathered, and the number of acres of land planted, and produce of the daily, vineyard,orchard, etc., in order that their statements when made to the enumerators may bo of the highest potsible value. Bahn Weevils.—Several correspond edts informed the American. Agricultu rist of their methods of ridding their bams or weevils. One used slaked lime dusting the bins before putting in the grain, and, also, after removing it. Another used lime and leaves of the ohioa tree, without effect, the weevils seeming to increase. Noticing the strong odor of fig leaves, be spread some on top of the wheat and in less than a week there was not a weevil to be found. The past spring he tried fig leaves npon cucumbeis and squaBlies; a single leaf was placed in each hill and these were no striped bugs to be fouu tbe next morning.” The correspondent who gave this information is Mr. 8. Hurpold, of Ellis county, Texas. Theso leaves are easily obtained all over the South. Perphaps this information will induce those who have not cultivated fig trees for their delicious fruit to do tp, to get rid of the wee-devils which destroy so much wheat, and the innu merable bugs which commit such dep redation in their gardens. The war between tbe Unaerwoods and the Holbrooks, of Kentucky, is about over, not because the two f unities have declared peace, but because of the want of men on the Underwod side. Jisse Underwood was killed while standing in his father’s front door, a day or two ago, by Ihe Holbrook crowd, making foui of the Underwoods who have been shot to death by tbe Holbrooks within - the last three months. No one has been arrested or prosecuted for all of jThese murders, and prabibly nothing .will be done towards bringing the mur derers to justice. A family fued has ex isted between the Underwoods and Holbrooks for many years, and their history is marked by many deeds of vio lence and bloodshed. They belong to a class that is a curse to any communi ty, and the killing of all of the male members of one uf the familes will per haps, be regarded as a blessing by the people of the neighborhood in which they lived. At The South.— The Philadelphia Jiortk American Bays;. “Thera is very little doubt that cotton manufacturing in tho North will becomentbingof the past within a generation after prosperity i,s restored in the south. It will no long er pay to carry the raw material hun dreds of miles and transport coal and supplies to the colder climate of the North, when both can be saved by the erection’ of factories on the spot. New England will loose her cotton mills, just as she lost her glass factories, when the manufacture was begun at Pittsburg, End the freight on coal and sand saved. The future of the South is in her own hands, and she alone holds control of her destiny. ^ , ,i To BEHOVE WABTS.—Waits, can be ea sily removed without danger by tbe use of caustics and acids. Care must be taken not to have the ingredients too strong. A mixture of 20 grains of the nitrate of silver and two ounces of wa ter would make the right strength. Another good receipt is the mixture of any given quantity of nitric acid with four times the quantity of water. Ap- plv either to the surface of the wart, this corrods the outer surface. Contin ue this without cutting the wart and see that the mixture does not eat into the flesh and it will soon be cured.

It is an established fact tbat^Quinine or Oinchonidia. will stop Chills, andjffcr this purpose there is nc better remedy. But it is also an established fact that they do not remove the cause that pro duces the Chilis. For if they did, the Chills would not return on the 7th, 14th, 21st or 28th day. Then is it not money LOST to attempt to permanently cure the Chills with Quinine or Cinchonidia, when they do not remove the cause fromMhe system that produce* them? For until the cause is removed, the Chills will reiurn. The FERRINE Is warranted to remove every cause from the system that produces the Chills, and if it fails to do this you will sustain no loss, for every druggist is authorized to guarantej a permanent cure in every case, no matter of how long standing, and will refund the money if the Chills return alter you are through taking.— Positively, no cure, no pay.
