Result as usual; swindled. Good. The Herald also says, that all the pretty girls have left the town on visit. We will bet that Turner has mouths made at him. at church uext Sunday, by all the girls that were left in town. The Thomasville Times boasts that there is not a bar room iu their town and says that speaks well for Thomas ville. We suppose they buy it in the jug.—Cuthbert Appeal. Not by a jug full. An old man of eighty has measles in Dablonejja.

Well he will have one consolation. He will get his wash-woman for a weeks washing at least; get next to his boarding house keeper for the run of his hash for a month ; and then the reflection that the eveut will be eager ly wrote up, by his brother reporters, ought to satisfy any common man. A Griffin man is reported as having been lately bit by a snake, stung by a bee, lost a valuable dog aud stuck a splinter in his toot, in oue week. He is now loafing round a stable trying to get kicked by a mule. If that don’t satisfy him let him try lo trace up alljhe caterpillar reports afloat, and he will end his miserable existence in a few days by drinking some villainous Bitters. We wonder why J. B. G. in “Swing ing Around Georgia,’’ did not tell us something about liis recent visit to Thomasville f Surely he did not in tentionally forget it; for we know he tilt there. What lor ?—Standard.

Smith, of the Seaport Appeal up a spicy sheet. He notes the exist- of a “Fin aud Fun” club Brunswick. From the number of bar rooms, which dot that extensive bur: (sixteen) and the belligerent character of the citizens in trying to take a Forte, we should suppose that they lmd a “Gin and Gun” club also. The Georgia Enterprise published at Covington one ot our spiciest ex changes says the bachelors club there has just :>■» cents left in the treasury. At its last meeting the following resolu tion was passed amid the wildest ex citement, every member voting “aye” with a yell. Jlcsolred, That any male man mem ber ot this Society who is free born and 21 years of age, is Yvorthy an}' \vo- *"au with £20,000 clear cash. The Rome Commercial brings to the front a mau who killed sixteen tur keys at three shots. know one who brought down three turkeys at sixteen shots. Arlington the new town on the South Western extension, has two doctors, a lawyer and a boarding house; and yet she is not happy. It is strange how difficult it is to please some people now- •lays. The Macon Telegraph is growling i'er a 8()oiltd item. They had evi dently prepared a very thrilling ac count of the attempted suicide of a painter in Rarncsville. and now it turns out that he never killed himself after all; iu fact was not dead—only dead drunk. The same paper goes for the ;s of Macon in a style that is refreshing. There are computed to be two inhabitants in IluflVillc to every oue dog. The canines are said to be able to touch any chord in the scale, will back the one that howls every morning in the rear ot our office against creation for being the basest dog. The Telegraph Messenger had au advertisement the other day for a grocery clerk. They have bad fifty applications, and the cry is still they come. Moral—Too many young men want to part their hair in the middle, carry a tancy stick, and be “one of the boys” al»out town; instead of pursuin the nobler avocation of cultivating the soil. Barron of the Fraukliu News, and and lloully of the Visitor, say that if they cau hold out until blackber rv time, that they can then pull through the Summer. It would be a sad iliiug if the crop was to fail. It is gCDci ally supposed that Woods of the Dispatch, is engaged on another gourd vine story. It will probably eclipse all Hi* former efforts. We hope that he will not confine hit talent to snake stories (although that Cobb Creek one is good.) Any bodv get up one of these, but it requires a higher order of talent, to sling off such a gourd vine story as Pat Woods doe*. Iliwkinsyille was electrified the oth er day by a silver dime which cotne all the way from Texas. Woods has punched a hole in it, pasted a strong coni through tlie same, and is wearing it around his neck. It is fetred that this unlocked for accession to his for tune, may cause him to withdraw from the fraternity. Some old bachelor says “it is was ting time to bug the girls.” A young friend of ours around on Broad SL, suggests that he will have a good deal of ot spare time during the aull sum mer months. [Crop prospects in Mitchell good, so ays the Enterprise. Mason claims in same issue to be boarding at home, Lilt insists on Advertisers, and subscri bers footiug his hoard hill. Right, every town and county like Mitchelle. ought to support a local paper. A debating club abolished capital pouishment in Valdosta last week. - There is a wail of mournful sadness in the announcement made by Charley Pindleton, that “the matrimonial mar ket has been dosed for this sea- Alas Charley, the harvest is over, the summer is ended, and- yet you uot saved. THE COTTON' WORM. BY PROF. CIIA9. V. RILEY. Gentlemen of the National Agricultu ral Congress : It was my pjpasurc, wpll nigh a year ago, to be with you at v’our organiza tion in the city from which I hail.— Few things were characteristic of that reunion of the friends of agriculture from different parts or our broad land, than the large representation from the South, and the mutual good will and cordial fellowship which reigned on all sides. There was mauifest a a due appreciation ol science in the honor paid to one who did much to make us masters of the elements, ami whom we all sorrow for as having since left U9 for that world which know no sectional strife nor brother ly feud. There was also manifested a strong desiie to profit by one another’s experiences, and it is for these reasons that I am led to offer, to the members from the South, a suggestion which may prove of little service, per contra, of the utmost value. I gave you last year some idea of the immense sums which farmers of this country loose by insect depredation^, aud it is unnecessary here to enlarge upon this subject. You, as cotton growers, arc well aware of these rav ages, for a single fortnight iast sum mer, One single specie—the Colton worm—ate up somethiug like twenty million dollars’ worth of cotton for Nome of the Northern States have been sufficiently wise and provident lo appoint officers whose duty it is to study these insect pest, and suggest remedies for the ravages ; but in the .South, no such officers yet exisL You are, in consequence, entirely at the mercy of this appaicnily insignificant worm ; and it is a matter of surprise that, where the losses arc so heavy, some efforts have not been made to get the mastery over the pest by dele gating some individual or commission to make thorough investigations and experiments uj>on it. Up to the pres ent time no really practicable remedy has beeu discovered. Hand-picking is not wholesale enough. Fires, lights and traps containing attractive but poisonous sweets, together '.villi other devices, intended to allure aud des troy the parent moths, aie ot little use, except where they can lie generally emolayed throughout whole districts— and this implies an amount of intelli gence. organization amt unity of pur pose rarely, if ever, found in any farm community. Carbolic soap has failed to fulfill the hopes and prophe of its advocates. Now, it Ua> never been my fortune to experiment iu a cotton field, but from my experi ence with insecticides in other fields. I feel quite assured that by a proper use T’aris grecu the cotton worm may mastered. In the so-called North-western States, as you are doubtless aw have been sorely troubled, during the (»ast decade, by tin; Colorado Fotato- beetle (Doruphoru ro line at a), an in- •t which affect the potnto very much the same way as the cotton w affects the cotton plant: hut from which it is not likely that you of the South will ever suffer. Wo manage to tibduc aud defy it by the proper of the mineral mentioned, and from xperiments tm other lcaf-devourin, worms, many of them belonging t the same family as your cotton worm I am satisfied {hat this last will sue umb to the mixture I propose eve more readily than does the potato- beetle. Paris green, or Schecle'ft groen, tains n varied proportion ot nrsenious acid, and is a deadly poison : but the manner in which it may he used to counteract the cotton-worm, renders t perfectly harmless. If the ; pure, which can generally be ascertain ed by the brightness and intensity the color, it may bo mixed with 30 f arts ot flour, plaster, slacked lime, oi ashes, and still be thoroughly effectual, The least possible dusting of this mix iurc U(»on the plant? wil! bo 1 he mean* of destroying ali ‘he worms upon then), without the least injury to the plant themselves. The green should neve cost more than twenty-five cents pc pound, at wholesale, and thirty pounds of the mixture will suffice for several acres. It is best du<ted on to the plants early in the morning while they moist with dew. It may be dusted in various manners, and some person* lighting the potato-beetle, have found an old sleazy sack, such as those used fi>r table salt, to do good service, when attached to the end of a stick. It is most *afcly applied, however by aid < a perforated tin box attached to tf end of a stick three or four feet long, Such a box can be made of any desira ble size. The least possible* duslin, suffices, and by taking the handle e the dust-box in the left band, and thei tapping the box with another stick held in the right hand, one can walk rapidly along the rows and regulate the amount sifted. The green cannot well be mixed with the flour or plaster except by the aid ot the mil!, and it U for thi* reason that those who mix iu large quantities have the advantage. It is mo*t effectual when mixed with floor, though plaster has the merit of cheapness. Belielving firmly that thU mixture wc have a cheap and available antidote to the cotton-worm plague, I am anxious to give the s ge*lion as wide a circulation as j sfble, in order that it raav lie thorough ly tried and reported on the coining summer, and I will conclude this short paper with the natural history of the cotton worm very much as ■ the second report on the Elimology of Missouri The cotton -worm (A nomis Tylina) was first scientifically described by Mr. Thomas Say. in the* year lf*27. Ac cording to Dr. D. L. Phaies. of Wood ville, Mias., it destroyed, at a low esti mate, 200 tons of cotton in the Balia* mas as long ago as 1788 ; while in Georgia it completely destroyed the crops in 1793. According to Dr. Ca pers its injuries were noticed iu 1800. and it likewise proved very destructive in 1824,1825 and 1828. Since the last date, as we may learn from old vol ume! % of the American Farmer, of Bal timore. Marylaud, from the Patent Office Rej>ort". and the writings of Towuend Glover, of the Department of Agriculture, it has done more or less lamage to the crop almost annually some part or other of the cottou- growing district. As with the real grass-feeding aroy-worm of the Mid lie States, swarms in particular years to such an extent as to utterly rum the crop while in other years it is jarcely noticed. This # fact has led many to infer that there is a stated periodicity iu its returns iu such im mense uumhcis ; but the uatural his tory of the werm confutes such an idea while the records give uo foundation for the inference. The suddeu in crease ot this as of other species of noxious insect*, depend on climatic, as other equally po’eut iuflueuces. The egg, ’accordiug to Dr. Pharos shapeiK‘precisely like :i scull-can. with rows of pin heads from base to :»pex as thickly set as possible.” aj>- pearitig as if moulded iu a deep saucer. These eggs are of a transluceut green color, are deposited upon the un side of the leaves, and from their small size ate naturally difficult of de tection. Each female deposits from 400 to OOO, and according to the late Thomas Affleck, of Braliam, Texas, they hatch two days after being depos ited, if the weather he moist and warm. The worms at first feed upou the par- nchvma, or soft flesh, parts of the leaves but afteiward devour indiffer ently, not only any portion of the leaves, but also the 'blossom-bud and blossom, together with the calyx leaves at the base of the boll, thus causing the lobes which hold the cotton to fail entirely back and allow the cotton to drop out at the slightest touch. While young these worms readily let them selves down dy a web, when disturbed but when older they make less use of the web, and jerk themselves away to considerable distance when sudden- V touched. They cast tlieir skins at five successive periods, ami cotne to their growth in the incredibly short pace of fifteen or twenty days. Mr. Affleck e ven states that 'they usually nter thechrisalisstateou the eleventh day after hatching ; but I incline to believe that, such a larval existence is extremely exceptional, and the length ol time required for thehi to mature will not only differ in different indi- iduals of the same brood, but will ary with the state of the atmos phere. I have upon several occasions receiv ed full-grown specimens of this worm, and they differ materially, both in depthof shade coloration and markings deed be almost all the larva- of moths belonging to the same (Xoctn- ale) family. The most common color is light green, though they arc fre quently quite dark with a purplish line at the sides, and with black backs. Whether light or dark colored, how ever, they arc more or less distinctly marked with pale longitudinal lines and black spots, as in the above lig- Mr. Myman, in his Cotton Culture, says of this insect: “The first moths that visit a crop deposit their eggs and die. These eggs in ten day* be come little worms, which fall to eating the leaf on which they are hatched, and as they grow, consume the plant past to another. But age comes apace, with these ephemeral crea- s; the worm presently grows rv of devouring, selects aleaf, rc ’’ himself into a little cocoon and die Oi course this is a serious mistake to ay that the worm die*, else how conit it produce the moth which, as Mr. Ly himself shows, afterward issues from the cocoon. It is astonishing to titul such gross errors creeping into popular works, hut then, the study of these contemptible little hugs, even if they do sometimes totally destroy the crop. Is ot course beneath the dig- nity of the man who ran write a work cotton culture! The truth of the matter is that, when they have com pleted their growth, the worms fold the edge of the leaf aud, after, lining the Inside with silk, chaugc to chrysalido, which are at first green, hut soon acquire a chesnut brown col- Alter remaining In this state (ii which, though the insect is inactive, i yet lull <>f life, and undergoing won derlul development) from seven t fourteen days, or even longer, th. moth escapes, the chrysalis being held fast within the cocoon hy incans of several minute hooks with which the il i? furnished. The general upper surface is a gold- t-yt-ilow inclining to buff, with a faint ivc tint near the outer or posterior argin. T he front wings are crossed by more or less distinct, irregular lilac- colored lines. But the chief charactorist- g is a dark slate-colored or blank spot ui the front whig* in which there are ialer scales forming almost a double- pupil. while between this spot and the base of the wings tlie.e is a much smaller pure white dot. In general color and in the poritiou of the larger spot, this moth beurs a remarkable re semblance lo that of the true Army- worm of tne Northern and Middle States. Mr Affleck, who certainly had abundant opportunities for observing llic fact, assured me that this moth rests in the j-osition show n in figure 3.6. namely, with the head downwards. He wrote August 22nd. lfVW: • Th« Cotton moth (Optima ry inu of Har ris in his correspondence with myself) never aitghts in any other poeition.or it by accident it rir*t assumes another position, it instantly wheels around. head down. ' According to the best authority, there are three different broods of -.Toms during the year, the first ap pearing in June or July, and the la-t, which does tl e most damage, updat ing in August or September, or even later. Mr. Lyman, in the little work already rek-red to. say*: -That natur< has made no provision by which either the fly, the worm, the chrysalis on the eg-'*, survive the winter or exist for any length of time where the cotton plant is not a nerennial. ’ liut this i- -urc-ly an error, which Mr. Lyma;. would never have made bad he H-*ae«l a better knowledge of insect lift ; and as Mr. Glover found that tin chrysalis wn killed by the slightest frost, the insect evidently winters over in the moth slate, as do many other*- belonging to the same tnbe. Mr. W. Ii. S-abrook give* strong evidence that tliis U the ca*e, fo a “memoir on the Cotton Plant,"read iu l^L'J, before the state Agricultural Society ol South Carolina, wherein he *ay*: ‘^That the Cotton moth fturvives the winter li nearly certain. An examination of the neighboring woods,especially after a cold winter, has often been success fully made for that purpose.” Au*l Dr. Phare* states positively that the moth hibernates in pile* ot cotton seed under shelter, under bark and in crev ice* of tree* in den*e fbr< *ts and oth er m eluded places and that it may of ten be *een on p!ea*ant dars iu winter. •Patent Office Report,!^, p.74 CHAXGE OF SC HE DUL E.
