I would ask you how soon we may look for the report of the committee, on Mathews' remedy for the Curculio's depredations on the Plum tree! I have seven or eight fine Plum trees, and cannot get as many Plums in a season, although the trees blow full and the fruit sets well. If he has found out a remedy against the attacks of the Plum weevil, so that we can be sure to save our Plums, if made known to the public, or to every person who will apply for it, I will be willing to contribute my mite for a knowledge of it - A Subscriber. - West Bridgewater, Mass.

We have many inquiries of this kind. It is perhaps no more than due to the public, and to the Associations who have appointed committees to test the remedy in question, to fay that those committees have concluded to give it another year's trial, although some of them felt fully prepared to report now. The members of the committees have no liberty at present to speak of the mode of applying this remedy, and it may be that they were not expected to divulge their opinions as to its merits. In the mean time we would recommend to our correspondent the old, excellent, and well tried remedies combined, of the confinement of pigs and geese under the trees, and jarring down on sheets and destroying the insects while laying their eggs in the fruit. - Country Gentleman, Nov. 16th.

It may be proper to add that the Editor of the Country Gentleman is one of the committee appointed by the N. Y. State Agricultural Society to test Mr. Mathews' remedy.
