Washington, June 14.—Cobb, of In
diana, called up the report of the commit
tee on public lands recommending concur
rence in the senate amendments to the At
lantic and Pacific land forfeiture bill.
McCrea, of Arkansas, vigorously opposed
tbe senate amendments, contending that
notwithstanding the title of the bill, the
adopting of the amendments would con
vert the bill into a confirmatory net.
The report of the committee was then
agreed to and the amendments concurred
Under the call of states a number of bills
and resolutions were introduced and re
ferred. Among them was the following:
By Wheeler, of Alabama, a resolution re
citing the resolution offered some days ago
bv Kelley, directing the public printer to
oinit from the permanent record the
speech delivered by Wheeler upon Edward
M. Stanton, stating that the resolution is
si * framed ns to render it improbable that
the house will adopt it, and asking for the
appointment of a special committee to ex
amine the speedi and expunge therefrom
any unjust reflection upon Edwin M.
Stanton or any expression in regard to
Abraham Lincoln which is not commenda-

The floor was then accorded to the Dis

to call up the bill without knowing more
on the subject than he did at first, except
that as he was encouraged by the late cor
respondence between the'president and
Secretary Manning. If the motion is de

the democratic members from New York
when he might reasonably expect them to
be with the administration.

Among those present at the convention
of the Knights of Labor, recently held in
Cleveland, Ohio, was J. S. Meynardie, a
Baptist minister, of Augusta, (4a. This
person is also the master workmen of the
Knights of Labor of Georgia. It appears
ill the reports of the convention that this
reverend gentleman made statements, cast
ing serious reflections on the cotton manu-
J foeturing enterprises of the place of his
citizenship. So grave were some of his
I charges that, we were prompted to inquire
■into the truth or falsity of them, and to
I that end'addressed the several concerns
! accused for such intelligence respecting
! them as they thought lit to communicate,
j For the responses made, we will
| refer to another portion of Ibis issue, which
l cannot but impress the render with the
I jealous euro exercised in preserving the
j good name of the manufacturing interests,
I which have so materially added to the
I prosperity and wealth of the south. How
j much Mr. Meynardie may have been under
' the excitement of the occasion, when the
| deplorable conditions of the laboring
classes were uppermost in the minds of his
| audience, and when the selfishness of em-
I ployers were expected to be depleted, even
| in extravagant terms, we will not attempt
j to fancy; enough it is to say that there is J
jus!, excuse for an immoderate mis- I
health of the locality. Mr. Meynardie
asserted that lie had walked until
he was footsore, trying to get coffins to
bury the dead in,—for children who worked
in the mills. He may have done so, but
there was nothing in the general circum
stances of the families in which death took
place, to oblige him to undergo such trials.
We have not space to give more extend
ed remarks on the allegations of this gen
tleman, whose mission should be consis
tent with his ministerial professions, and
all statements of facts adhered to in their
truthfulness. Thereeanbe no Justification
in falsifying the moral standing of an in
dustry.

A neighbor of mine has recently called
my attention to some insects which are
committing great depredations upon the
elms in front of his house, and as others in
the city may be suffering from the same
pest, I venture to give a few brief notes
upon its habit* anil life history, together
with such hints for its destruction as are
at my commend. The insect ill question
belongs to the family Cocclrias, ami is a
near n lation of the well known cochineal
insect of commerce. The group of which
it is a member is a section of the large or
der llemiptera, or plant bugs, the species
of which are, in some form or other, very
destructive to vegetable life. The Aphides,
chinchbugs, and the detestable bedbug are
familiar examples of the order, which has
numerous representatives in tlie United
States, the various species running far Into

The government gave no notice that it

George desired to speak, but the hour

Chicago, June 14.—Payne, Sorrin &

at the fire alarm office that three of the

rapidity. The blaze originated in
the machinery. When the engines

a large number, lmd to flee for their lives.

tude of Augusta when bare feet is a UJftttor
of choice; and no such instance* are au
thenticated in extreme cold winter. The
removal of the shoes inside of the mill is
rather a question of comfort than of neces
sity.
The native white employes, it is said,
have for their regular diet, pork, corn
bread and greens; fresh meat
being a luxury. To the north
ern taste this might indicate 1
a pretty hard bill of fare, even presuming
upon its truthfulness; but the writer of this
can testify from his own southern experi
ence that it i.s not so bad as it seems, or as
the acc user intended to convey to Ins hear
ers. riuch a diet is often one of choice, and
when well cooked i.s palatable. Unwhole
some food is not a necessary concomitant
of a factory employe’s living. As in every
community there are undoubtedly many
who do not know how to enjoy their sur
roundings to good advantage.
In regard to wagon Mr. Meynardie stated
“that the wages in the mills are, on the
averag**, 50 cents to £1.50 a week for chil
dren. Women are paid by the piece, and
make about .50 cents a day. Men get from
<10 to 75 cents a day, and machinists, w!
arc paid the highest wages of any
jinployes, receive from £1 to $2 a day.”
The impression intended to he conveyed
by the foregoing statement was Unit the
Wiigc-s named were for ste^uiy einployinent,
either by the day or by the week. The
facts do not agree with the ailegatic>ns.
The least w.'ige-s paid in any of the mills
nary, remedies for inducing sleep are
worse Ilian useless. The nervous relations
betwiM it t he brum and Lne strunach are so
intimate t hat disorder of the one organ is
almost certain to affect the other. Excite
ment, worry and anxiety, which have
their s*at in the brain, interfere with the
functions of tlie stoi.uuh.and in a likeiman-
ncr anything that unduly taxes the power
nf or irritates the stomach disorders
the circulation ami nutrition of the brain.
The sleep! jssuess often complained of by
gouty persons is due u» the poisonous effect
ofthe morbid material upon the nervous
system. Kxcessivc smoking, tm) much
alcohol, ten and coffee, often resorted to
by overworked persons, are frequent causes
of sleeplessness. In all these cases the
cause* is removable, while the effect may
be counteracted by appropriate treat
ment. Nothing is more mischievous, how
ever, than to continue the habits, and to
have recourse to drugs to combat the ef
fects. A flue amount of exercise tends to
induce normal sleep, and such exercise
need not be of a violent character.
A walk of two or three miles
daily is sufficient, and is perhaps as much
as a busy man can find time for. A ride on

gout, is probably tlie best form of exercise
