Catterpillar Prevention. A plan, lately patented, to prevent worms elimbing trees, looks as though it would be effectual. A tin trough is made in two parts, large enough to encircle the tree and leave a space four or five inches between the trough and bole of the tree. From the outside edge of the trough a strip of cloth extends all around, wide enough to have its upper edge tackeif to thie tree, by which the trough, filled with oil, is sheltered from rain and sustained in its place, so that worms creeping upward come-first in contact with the cloth, and if they crawl down that to get around the edge and so up the tree, they are eaught in the oil, which, being sheltered, remains longer than when exposed in good condition. Now it is an experiment worth trying, arid for which there is no patent, whether a strip of clqth nailed around the tree at one edge, and having the other ex tended six inches from the bole by a wire or limber rod, would not answer the purpose without the oil-troueh. The under side of the cloth could be coated with some kind of pitch that would pot harden soon? being protected from the sun and rain, which would effectually prevent the ascension of insects certainly much more so than the belt of tar as it is usually applied. v —^

Weather Predictions.

It has been stated by Mr. White, the Secretary of the Meteorological Society of London, who has devoted much attention to the subject, that “the storm periods of the present year, as pointed out by the science of astro-meteorology, will be! from the Bth to the 11th of April, and 23d to 25th more severe. The first half of Maiy, the mo6t violent from the 18th to the 20th; June, l ßtlrto 11th, apd 24th to 27th. July will be rife with short periods of heat and thunder; but the most striking;features from 18th to 22d, when it is highly probable Epgland will be shaken by an earthquake. August, from the 10th' to the 12th and the most severe from .the 20th to the 27th. September, 7th to 14th, and from 20th to 24th. j And October, though too late to do much! damage, from 20th to ijflth.” As these are the predictions of astro-meteorology, it will be curious to observe if any or all of these events take, place about the time stated, j

Quantity of Seed per Acre.

* Last spring, having a field of very uniform soil upon which I wished to sow oats, I resolved to try what effect an increased quantity of seed would have upon the crop. Accordingly I sowed about fi|»ur acres tw o and a half bushels per acre. The least quantity of seed gave a yield oif one hundred and niPety-two and a half bushels; and the larger gave one hundred bushels, by measure; —a trifling difference by weight; the latter exceeded the former two pounds per bushel,, weight thirl y-dne to twenty-nine pounds. This was upon ground which had not been manured for the la6t six years, had raised a crop ol barley and one of corn previous to the oats. The difference in the weight of tho crop is something which I cannot account for with satisfaction to my own mind, as the seed was of the same kind> and the ground plowed of a uniform depth and all sowed and harrowed on the same day.

farmers" of the North-west will t?e glad to hear that the groat suit between McCormick and Mpiny, rival mannfacturers •f reapers, growing out of an alleged infringement of McCormick’s patent, has just ,been decided in the Supreme Court of the United. States adversely to McCormick, the plaintiff. Now, if his application for a renewal of an old patent can he defeated by Congress, the farmers of the North-west will soon be able to buy reapers at prices which-correspond with the times.— Chicago Tribunt. And yet, the right of a man who has done so much for agriculture ought'to to be overruled; one interest cannot thrive at the expense of another.

(£J”Ab the race mare “Prioress” is to, lie again brought on the turf in England, we give a brief description of her. She is a bay mare, about sixteen hands high, small ring of white on near hind pastern,/Star on the forhead. She was sired - by imported “Sovereign,” outof “Reel,” by “Glencoe.” She was four years old in 1857. She made the first mile heatß in April, 1858, on the Metairie Course, New Orleans—two heats in 1:46$ and 1:45; and two heats in 1:47 and She was beaten on the Fashion Course, Long Island, by Nicholas I in two straight heats. She was also beaten in the Goodwood cup-r&ce, which took place July 30, 1857. Distance two milda und a half.

. . Oxen ys. Horses. —Oxen cost far less, l and can be kept cheaper than horses. The wear and tear o! the yoke and chain is less that of a set of harness, .and if an accident,swell as breaking a leg, should occur, he is not a dead loss; for, if kept as he should be, and as any will find it to his interest to keep his cattle, he will make beef, while a horse »in like circumstances would b# s dead lose.

Steel Plow.

By this invention the mold-board and lay always retain their form while on the frame or foundation; and in case the lay becomes Sprung while being sharpened, it will be Caused to take its original shape when applied to the frame or foundation. Thus all inconvenience from the lay and mold-board in steel plows being sprung and banging in the soil, is avoided. A perfectly smooth and regular steel surface is presented to the soil. This plow is well adapted for western lands. It is the invention of John Lane, of Lsckport, Ill.— Scientific American.

Ten Broeck, the champion of American horses in England, has gone to Europe, intending to follow up the English turfmen uptill he conquers them. Charleston, a favorite South Carolina racer, has left for' England in the City of Baltimore. He was accompanied by three trotters, which Mr. Ten Broeck takes out for his own use, and which will, no doubt, astonish the Britishers on the road. Both Charleston and Prioress are to contend for Ihe Goodwood cup; and if they are both in fine condition at the time, our sporting men say one of them is sure to win the cup.

A Nail in the Heart or, a Horse. —A horse, eight years in Sir John Trollope’s possession, being incurably la.ne, was killed and cut up for his hounds. In hisiieart was found a blacksmith’s shoeing nail two and a half inches long. v—- *

It has lived and grown ujSiilj its own merits, seldom receiving official paiteopuge, or governmental favors. Its name is uN*ftjusehohl wordl’ throughout the length and brigauth of theState; and its position upon all piibljp matters — political or otherwise—is so well that anything said in reference to its* course tip on any i of the questions now before the people Would be superfluous. &■=- The Journal wifi continue to advocate the! great principle V>f freedom, and givedts support j to the Republican parly, as the partvjW the peo- i pit—acting with the party when rigid; and repu- | dinting it when wrong—but it wilU'bo for the; coming year more of a family pupoiisthat it has j ever yet been, and D- made more afegeutuble to I the general reader than a purely ponmuil paper could be. The session of Congress under a nqw iuhniuis- J tration is always fraught with more importance to the welfare of the ccuutfy, and the | present session will be looked upon wtjth feelings; of peculiar interest. The position ot the admin- • istrittion upon Kansas affairs is a matter of much public concern.

Mecca and Mohammed. GP. PUTNAM fc CO. have published and , have now for |ale, BURTON’S PILUKIItIAGE TO MECCA And the Tonk> of the Prophet, With an introduction Dy Bayard Taylor. I vol., 12>n0., with illustrations. $1 50. The history of this curious book is as follows: Burton, an officer of the East India Company, having by a long residence in Tpper India acquired a perfect knowledge of the Oriental language and customs, projected a visit under the auspices of the Rovnl Geographical Society, to the Holy City of Mecca and, the Tomb of the Prophet at Medina, places rarely, if ever before, visited by an Englishnrmn. This lie successfully accomplished in 1853-4, disguised as a Mohammedan Dervish. The history of the pilgrimage is not surpassed in interest and originality by any book of travel ever published—embracing his residence Cairo as a Mohammedan student; the journey across the desert with the great annual caravan of pilgrims; the. visit to the tomb of the Prophet; the discovery that the great Blackstoue of Mecca is un oirolite; ‘.he annual sermon preached at Mecca to an audience of 156,000 pilgrims, gathered from all parts of the Moslem world; Ills narrow escape from detection, and tlie only accurate account of the Mussulman faith.

To the religious community this work furnishes information never before made puh'ic, respecting the ceremonial laws of a large portion of the world; while, for general interest. Burton's will compare favorably with either Rotliem, or Crejscjmt and the Cross. G. P. PUTNAM & CO., 88 No. 521 Broadway, N. Y.
