Tbe caterpillars, says the Chronicle and Sentinel,
appear to be playing sad havoc In the cotton fields of
tins vicinity. We are informed that in two fields two
m-.iea from the city, where the cotton was green and

syl.m rrs were meted and so badly demolished as to
render them entirely useless The small win s were
melted, and the lightning arrester and switch
board were badly damaged. The window
frame was srlintered in a reckless manner, and
also a rule-frame that waa hanging near the wmdow,
was badly defaced, the gilt finish being melted to a
ciadsr. Mr. Frank Wyatt, the operator, who was pre

'i ah ectric shock deadened his nerves eo that it waa

,l 18 °ffice sent to bis address—all mid is a man of remarkable temperate
from women wanting work; some directed
the delicate and trembling hand of tbe poor
widow, weakened by starvation and crazed by
anxiety ; some in the band of the bold, reliaut
wife who “wishes to help John save a little;”
some written with the flourishes and wastage
of the young girl who is willing to woik for
the sake of a cherry-colored ribbon; bat all
from women who want “work,” and who are
but the mere hint—the mere suggestion —of
the great army of hungry women who, with
impatient hands folded, are waiting in the
background for “some work to do.”
What is to be done for the relief of this
multitude, whose numbers the wildest guess
could scarcely cover? What shall we put
them to work at? What task may be found
for these thousands of idle blit anxious hands?
The question is no easy one to answe r. The
truth is the Southern people liAve always
treated this matter of women working with
entirely too much contempt. We have heeu
taught to believe that woman was not
meant for work—that she was but a being to
be petted and caressed —to be toyed with and
idolized, hut not to be soiled by labor.
This theory, or, rather, this prejudice, isolj
wrong. Every human being in the world is
put here fn some good and useful end, and
none will be soiled or degraded by working
to the accomplishment of thut end. There
are hundreds of avenues open to women,
through which they could seek light aud pro
fitable employment, and through which they
icoukl seek it if they were ouly assured tint
society would uphold them in tbe endeavor
and not snub. them. I; becomes our mer
chants aud our business men to encourage the
weaker sex in the effort (not “to emancipate
themselves from the slavery of dependence,”
as Susan Anthony would say) bnt to lighten
the burdens on their husband’s shoulders or
to win bread for their dependent children.
The difficulty with ns lies in the prejudice
we have against women engaging ia any sort
of work. We have seen one notable influ
ence within the last six months. A beautiful
girl whose mother was very poor was put to
clerk in a highly respectable store, ou a good
salary. Nearly every customer that the girl
had to attend was a lady, nnd things went on
swimmingly for a while. At last, the preju
dice-poison began to work. “Have you heard
those awful stories about Miss Blank ?’* ”Ii
is a real down shame for that girl’s mother
to force her into such a position. She will
be rained,” etc., etc., airiil the poor giil
yielded to the clamor, and went back to gen
tility and beggary.
But we do not propose to discuss ihe ques
tion to-day. We merely call attention to the
fact, as shown so plainly by the advertise
ment of “Industry,” that there is a perfect
army of hungry, starving women, who,
capable and willing, are wearing ont them
selves and todies iu idiom ss for the want of
some work to do, and,
“What are we going to do about it ?”

A “Wolf Boy.”—An interesting child, re-
Duki tbe Pall Mail Gazette, has lately iuade
bis appearance at Lucknow. The Pioneer re
ports the arrival there cf “a novelty in the
shape of a wolf boy." This young gontle-
inan, who ia now undergoing a process of
taming in a lunatic asylom, was, it is said,
earned off by wolves when an infant, und
has remained with them until a short time
ago, when eanght snd recognized by his pa
rents. His family, however, can baldly be
congratulated on his restoialion to their
bosom, for his education iu tbe woll nursery
(which, by the way, was puiely secular,)
seems to have been very defective. His man
ners are not only disagreeable, but peculiar.
At first he walked on all fours, though now
be has been induced to walk on his two feet
only, liko a reasonable being; he has long
hair on his besd, and hi* body is much
scarred, and he cannot speak, nor c»n he un
derstand a single word. His parents suffered
much inconvenience on bis first srrivul at
heme, owing to his frequently stlscking aud
trying to devour them by night; and, indeed,
it waa owing to his persistence in tb>s nnfil-
ial conduct that they were compelled in self-
defense, to place him under medical surveil
lance, He also, among other diSAgreeable
habits, tears raw meat to piec.a with his
teeth, and eaU it ravenously like a wild beast,
and, moreover, bites and soaps at any one
who attempts to toneh him.
Writing from Kurractiec, India, on tbe 8ih
ultimo, a correspondent, signing himself H.
Izank Walton, sends the following to the Lon
don Times:
The cable between Knrrachce and Gwadur,
distance of about three hnudred miles, sud
denly failed on the evening of the 4th inst.
The telegraph steamer Amber Witch, ouder
the command of Captain Bishop, late I. N.,
with the electrical and engineering staff under
Mr. Henry Mance, proceeded on the follow
ing day to repair tbe damage, which, by teats
taken at either end, nppeared to be one hun
dred and eighteen miles from Knrraebcc. The
Amber Witch arrived on '.he gtonnd at 2 p. m
on the 6th, a heavy sea nnd tuick fog prevail
ing at the time, bnt the cable was successfully
grappled within a quarter of a mile of the
fault.
The soundings at the fault were very irregu
lar, with over-falls from thirty to seventy fath
oms. On windiog in tbe cable the unusual
resistance was eiperienced, ns if it were foul
of rocks, but after persevering for some time
the body of an immense whale, entangled iu
tbe cable, was brought to the surface, when it
was found to be firmly secured by two and a
half tnrns of the cable immediately above the
tail. Sharks and other fish had partly eaten
the body, which was rapidly decomposing,
the jaws falling away on reaching the surface.
The tail, which measured fully twelve feet
across, was perfect, and covered with barna
cles at the extremities. The sea being loo
rough at the time to make use of the boats,
an attempt was made to haul the whale on
board, but its own weight broke it away from
tbe injured cable as soon as it was above the
surface.
“Apparently tbe whale was at the time of en
tanglement using the cable to free itself from
parasites, such as barnacles, which annoy
them very much, and the cable, hanging in a
loop over a submarine precipice, ho probably
with a fillip of his tail twisted it aronnd him,
and thus came to an untimely end.
“ During tbe time tbe Amber Witch re
mained on tbe ground, a large school of whales
continued to play in the close vicinity of the
ship, frequently blowing within a dozen yards
of the vessel, and even rubbing themselves
against the bawser by which the ship was se
cured.
“B>fore the outbreak of the war several
American whalers regularly frequented tbe
coast of Belooehistan, and were generally
very successful iu filling up with oil in a sin
gle season, but of late years tbe whale fishery
in these waters has been abandoned.
"To show how closely these whales can be
approached, I may mention that I was com
ing in a native boat from Orrnara to Kurra-
chee a distance of one hundred and forty
mile* on the 12th of November, 1872. The
inhabitants of the coast looked on me as a
jadoo-wallab, or magician, when first into-
dneing the telegraph into their inhospitable
conntry, nnd remembering the annual dis
play of meteors that would take place about
the time of my leaving Orrnara, Hold my
wild boatmen to expect a ahower of stars
daring the night. The meteoric shower duly
commenced about 1 a.m., and shortly after
wards an enormous whale came ftloogsids
and kept company with the boat, now and
then passing under it aud grazing it with bis
back, much to our alarm. Having a double-
barrelled rifle and a revolver under tbe cork-
bed on which I was lying, I wished to
tire at the whale, with a view
to frighten him away, but the ratives
begged me not to do so, as hs would destroy
the bout; aod vivid recollections of the pic
tures illustrating whale fishing, with a boat
thirty feet in the air, bottom upwards, nnd tbe
habits, and takes an uclixa part in the gov
ernment of the country, and is proverbial for
hie hospitably and liberality. Like all the
royal race ot Ashantee, he is remarkable for
the lightness of his color, and his features
are rather of a Moorish than a negro type.
All his family, although without the least ad
mixture of white blood, are remarkable in
their country for the lightne-s of their com-
E lexion, being iittle darker than a swarthy
Ulian or Spaniard.
He is now in his thirty-sixth year, and is
tbe eighth monarch who has ruled over the
Ashantees since the death of the great Sal
Tootoo, the lounder of the Ashantee power
and the greatest of their kings and warriors.
HIS WIVES ABE MANY.
The laws of Ashantee allow to the King an
unlimited number of wives. His favorite is
the Princess Sappon, daughter of a brother
of the late Queen Quacoeduali, who is not
only very beautiful, but is a woman of great
ability and eijoys great influence with her
husband. She has borne him but one child,
a son, who died while sriil an infaut about two
years ago. to his father's great grief.
If an Ashantee look upon tlio unveiled face
of one of the Kiug’s wives, it is certain dtaili.
AlltheKiug’s wives are kept jealously se
cluded in the woman's quarter ol the palace,
to which are attached large aud well-kept gar
dens. This quarter is jealously guarded by
the King’s eunuch guard, who number over
one hundred and fifty. The King’s wives are
the ouly women who are so secluded. The
women, as a general rule, can go about freely.
The capital of Ashantee is Commassie, al
though not the most populous iu the King's
realms. It is a well-built town, with wide
streets. The King’s palace, which is built of
quarried stone, is a large and c»q acious edi
fice. It is two stories high. Some of the
rooms iu it are of great size, and all are very
lofty.
Attached to the King’s palace is the gr« at
court yard, where he holds his councils of the
nobles. The King sits on a low throne, aud
the chief bits round—thos* of the highest
rank bring nearest to the King. A space in
front of the King is kept clear for the speak
ers, and whoever is addressing the assembly
takes bis stand there.
THE kino’s GREAT GENERAL.
The command of the army which invaded
the Fan tee country and is now attacking Cape
Coast was originally entrusted to Amaaqnah
Tia, one of the greatest of the Ashantee no
bles, and whose territories is in the immediate
neighborhood of Commassie. He also holds
the of Governor or Keeper of the Bantamm 1L1.
This is a fortified building, iu which are the
tombs of the Kings of Ashantee, in which
their crow'n and most valuable treasures are
kept, and which is one of the principal maga
zines for military munitions in tbe kingdom.
The King of Ashantee visits it once a year,
and remains *n seclusion in it for twenty
days.
Aumnqnah Tia is about forty } ears of age.
and is a distinguished warrior. He was ac
companied by old As i Moquaiitah. the A.vhan-
tee Von Moltke. Hi! is a little, old man, with
white hair and a long white beard. This old
warrior is nearly seventy years of age, und is
regarded with great devotion and affection by
the Ashantee troops, who entertain great con
fidence in his skill. He has greatly distin
guished himself in the many wars the Asbat-
tees waged w r ith the tribes of the interior,
and also commanded iu the second Ashantee I
war.
THE ROYAL COSTUME.
The King and the chiefs, when at war.
wear loose Turkish trousers of different col
ored stuffs. They are thus to lie known ironi
the rank and file, who «e»r only a tunic and
no trousers.
The King of Ashantee nev* r goes bare
footed, always wearing sandals richly jr\vel ed,
aud when traveling is carried in a hammock
by bearers. All the hammock beams are sup
plied by one tribe fiuui the. interior, lie is
remarkable above all his subj cts by the cost
liness aud splendor of his robes.
In tbe fi Id his sla'e dress consists of a
light tunic of crimson velvet or daiuask,
reaching from bis neck mariy to bis arms, of
loose trousers of siaiilar l..dorial, and ho
wears a cap of crimson velve , or at times a
cloth of the same color wound rwtmd his head
as a turban, with a profusion of gold orna
ments about his person.
THE KING'S UMDKELLV.
When the King of Ashantee takes the field
his presence is denoted by his state umbrel
la, which is always earned near him or over
him by one or the other of the nobles of bis
household, the King’s umbrella bearer being
always a man of very high rank. The King’s
umbrella is of great size. It is constructed
of alternate triangles of red and black velvet,
and is splendidly ornamented with gold. To
give an idea of the value of these umbrellas,
the umbrella of a chi* f not of tbe first rank
often costs £200.
The loss of the King’s umbrella iu battle
would be considered the greatest disgrace aud
defeat an Ashantee army could meet with,
and in like manner for a chief to lose his um
brella in battle is considered a great dishonor
for him. The chiefs all carry umbrellas, va
rying in splendor and costliness according to
the rank of their owner; but the Ashantee
chief may have an umbrella as large as the
King's or with the same arrangement of
colors, which are especially reserved for roy
alty.
THE REVENUES.
The King’s revenues are derived principally
from the gold mines, nearly all the most valu
able mines being his own private property—
and all nuggets found, no matter where, be
long to him, while the gold dust belongs to
the finder.
The crown of A.shautee descends in the fe
male line, the sons of the King’s eldest sister
inheriting in turn.
The Ashantee arms consists of a long mus
ket, the barrel of which is over five fet t long.
The soldiers are called Buccaneers, and wear
in their girdles a large spear-shaped knife,
which, at close quarters, is a formidable wea
pon indeed. They carry their powder in a soit
of leather case, and their biille-s in a bag of
native matting. A certaiu portion of the
army, about one-fourth, are armed with short
carbines or blunderbusses, which are loaded
with several bullets at a time; they also carry
pikes about six feet long.
The beards of the Ashantees make them
easily distinguishable from the oilier tribes.
They all wear a short pointed beard, and as a
general rule any Ashantee who is beardless is
looked upon as unfit for a soldier. They are
also lemarkable for a certain fierceness of
look and dignity of demeanor.

field for offensive operations a force of nearly

after deliberation, to conscientiously request sufferers
to use it, especially persons in moderate circumstan

worthless mixtures. As clergymen, we seriously feel
the deep responsibility restiug on us in publicly in

Iu reference to tLe abstention of ILeCutLo-
lic* of Antwerp fiom tbe fete* of that city ou
tbe oocfetiou of tbe Royal visit ou Sumlay,
Aoguat 17, Mr. K. G. Kenyon writes lo the
London Daily Telegraph from Ilruges, to ex
plain that tho motive of abstention is not dis
loyalty, a* imputed to the clerical party by
the Belgian press, but n ilesiro to protein
against tbe fetes beiug made a Liberal de
nomination. Mr. Kenyon slates that not only
have the dignitaries of the Catholic Church
and tho leader* of their party, bnt also tho
senators and deputies who represent Antwerp
in Parliament, and who happen to be cleri
cals, been omitted from tho list of invita
tions. It is on this account that the Catho
lics, os a body, intend to take no part in the
fetes.
M. Janssen's method of photographing tbe
apparent contact of Venus with the edge of
the sun is worth; of description. The pho
tographic piste i* in tbe form of a disk, fixed
upon A plate which rotnlos upon an axis
parallel to that ot the Mlespope. Before it is
plsced another disk, forming a screen, in
which is a amsll aperture, in order to limit
the photographic action lo the edge of the
tun. The plate which carries tbe sensitive
disk has 180 teeth, and is placed in commu
nication with an escapement apparatus
actuated by an electric current. At each
second the pendulum of a clock interprets
the current, and the plate tarns one tooth, so
that at each second a fresh portion of the pho.
tognphic plate is exposed. Thus, in us many
seconds, 180 images ot tbesnn and the planet
can be obtained. When the series relating
to the first contact is obtained, the plate is
withdrawn and soother snbstituted, which
gives tbe second contact and so on for the
