The “ f ichborne Claimant.*’
This la the last name that has been fitted to
Beast Batter in oonnection with his raid npon
the gubernatorial chair of Maaaaohnaette by his
Bsdloal opponents In that State, and ex.Attor
ney General Hoar has tha honor of being
author.
Butler's en.m'es think it very nett and ap
propriate. It may be all that, hot certainly
does cot lie in Mr. Hoar’s month or the menth
cl soy other AtaaaachnaeUs Badieal to apply It
to Batler. Of all the men in that party he beet
represents its principles, character and policy.
If he la an imposter the Hadioal party baa given
him the power and proofs neoeeaary to go Into
canrt and make a contest. He has the support
of the Adminiatrailna and all its hirelings in
Massachusetts, and Mr. Hoar may find himtelf
turned out of coart when he attempts to show
np the pretended Sir Hager. It seems to
that this Sir Hager h-a a stronger case than the
real heir to the name and estate of Badicalism
In Massachusetts—if indeed there be one,
Mr. IIoar and bis friends claim. Ha bears all
the marks of identity, whether personal, mental
or moral, and if be has changed so ranch that
his early friends do not recognizs him, that
easily aoconnled for by the life he haa led, and
the oumpany he has kept sines his disappear
ance in 18GO. He may not be Ibe reel Sir Hager,
bat be certainly makes n marvellously correct
personation of Mm, and Mr. Hoar may have yet
to acknowledge hla identity.
We hope so. anyway. Oae of the sweetest
reverges the South oonld have, won’d be to se
Bailer Governor of Massachusetts, and Mr.
Hoer gal, the cream of Massachusetts respec
tability, compelled to do him honor. In the
olden time, that State prided itself, and with
cause, npon the spotless character and pare
breed of its dignitaries. It will indeed be
goodly a'gbt io witness the triumph of such
leper ea Batler, whoso whole career has been
shack and a soacdtl to all the proprieties and tra

were glad to ntilize his villainy In their scheme

The New Fork Commercial and Financial
Chronicle of last Saturday reports receipts of
tbo week np to Friday night, 1st instant, at
12,255 bales, against 12.G18 balsa lest week,
13.883 bales the previous week, and 15,181 bales
three weeks since, making the total receipts
alnoe the first of September, 1872, 3,575.348
bales against 2,708.090 bales for the name period
of 1871-72, showing an increase sinoe Septem
ber 1, 1872, of 807,258 bales.
Tho interior port roeeipts were 3,372 bale",
against 475 last year—the shipments were
4,428 against 1,534, and the storks footed np
1,388 bales against 8,297 lost year.
The Chroniole's table of visible supply shows
2 328,595 bales against 2,498,297 last year, and
185,100 the year before. This indicates a de
crease in the ootton supply as reported last year
am muting to 109,702 bales, and an increase on
that of tho year before of 143,489 baleB.
The Chronicle reports good growing weather
throughout the week ending the 1st instant—
frequent showers and high temperature. It had
rained In New Orleans every day—it had been
showery in Mobile—one day's rain at Selmi, in
Montgomery it bad rained more than ha'f the
days, showery three days in Colnmbns and Ha-
con—five showers at Savannah—Charleston
warm and dry—Nashville more wet than dry
days, and In Memphis rain every day bnt two.
Caterpillars were reported in every Gnlf State,
they had done very HtU* injury nn far. The
nse cf the oaterpillar daatrover—° onmr°''uA of
Faria green and flour—had been attended with
general snceess. The meronry averaged at
Memphis 79, Savannah 82, Mobile 82, Selma Si,
Maeon 81, Montgomery 8G, Colnmbns 83.
The New York market during the week bad
been more active at a decline of jb far all

Grasshopper* In tho West.
The State of Nebraska has jnst boen eaten
ont of every green thing by the grasshoppers
in the spans of two or three days, and on tha
back of this performance wo read of a- hall
storm In the neighborhood of Omaha, wherein
the hail fell to the depth of two feet.
The great clouds of grasshoppers which at
not nnfreqnent intervals sweep over those far
Western States, carrying niter devastation In
their rapid progress, mast be altogether inoon-
oeivakle to one who has not seen them. They
obscure the snn and darken the horizon. All
verdnre vanishes before them as Instantaneous
ly as if touched by the wand of a malicious en
chanter. They come and go like the blast of a
hurricane, and the laws regulating their advent
and fi'ght are alike unknown. Where the;
oome from, and how and where they vanish,
are both a mystery. Bnt it is a dreadful mis
fortune, we should suppose, to cultivate orops
In a eonn'ry where every leaf and stalk may dis
appear any honr in the day.
Dnngerona Counterfeit Gold Coin In
Circulation.
A Western press dispatch from Now York
says counterfeit five dollar gold pieces are in
circulation In that oity and Boston, so closely
imitating the genuine as almost to defy detec
tion. In weight and color, the counterfeit cor
responds with the legal coin and is made of
813 thousandths gold alloyed with oopper; in
trinsic valne 471 hundredths. The ontllnea of
letters and eagle on the counterfeit aro not as
sharp, square and angular as on the gennine.
The Chief of the saoret ssrviee offers a reward
of $50,000 for information leading to tho oap-
tnre of the dies from which the spurious article
was mode, and the arrest and oonviction of the
parties guilty of making and petting it into cir
culation. Counterfeit $20 gold pieoea are in
clrcnlation, and efforts are making to trace
them to suspected persona.
A Ctannce to Secure Immigrants.
Joseph Arch, the great leader of the English
Agricultural laborers’ Union, avows his pur
pose to come to Amerios this month, to see for
himaalf whether tha country doe* not open a
way of escape to tho English farm laborers,
from penury and degradation. Arch wields s
controlling personal influence over this large
population, and his advice in the premises will
be followed almost implicitly by them. What
should hinder the Georgia landholders from ap
pro icliicg him with a liberal proposition to fur
nish lands to his inm'grenta and inch informa
tion npon the resonrers of the State as would
satisfy him that aa industrious farm laborer
here can not oh\j cam a bountiful subsistence,
bnt seoara a competency In a reaeonatle time?

Ujder this head the Herald of Saturday has
the following cloudy paragraph In its money ar
ticle:
These were likewise doll, tha only transac

Beioham Orrxas to ConraottiiZ.—Salt Lake
City. August 1—It is reported on good author-

Caatlen to Flusters.
One of tha largest sod meet intelligent plan
ters in Doogberty ooonty, s resident cf B.bb,
told the writer yeateidiy, that the too free nse
of Paris Green was acting very Injuriously upon
the ootton crop* in that regloo, cansing the
leaves and yonng fruit to blast and wither.
Ia the cases mentioned, it had been mixed
with wheat floor and effectually destroyed tbs
caterpillars, bnt aa stated, damaged the weed
badly also. This may have resulted from nsing
the poison in exeemire quantities, or want of
thoroegh mixing. Oar informant farther says
that the worm so far haa been very partial In
its ravages, even in tha districts where they are
reported to be most numerous.
Plantations within several miles only of those
visited by the insect, have so far, escaped en
tirely. Tiers ia some reason to hope that this
will oontinne to be ao daring the remainder of
tha season.
The writer has frequently seen the rack oot
ton along the msrgics of awamps devoured,
while other portions of the same field were
spared, even is bad caterpillar years.
That the Paris Green will deatroy the Insect
la sufficiently proven; bnt the operation may
eqnire to !>e repeated again the same season.
The great desideratum it to learn how to com
bine it with other substances, so aa to preserve
ffiraoy, without harming the foliage of tho
plant. This knowledge, constant experiment
doubtless will soon supply. Until then, plant
ers shonld nse the poison very cantionaly, or pro
vide themselves with the preparations whioh are
sold under a guaranty by chem'ata.
The royalty e’aimed for the nse of Paris
Green Is disputed by many of the most intelli
gent farmers. Doubtless this question will be
dell oitely settled by the eonrts.

Perhaps the noble 8ir Walter In Lis yonth

There is an indivtdna'.Uy in the personal

His lameness, genial temperament, abound

constant firw of sympatby which never deserts
the reader, aa he ia borne along with the anther

While this splendid speolmen was undergoing

Tbe Vice .President Interviewed.
The Boston Journal has aotnally had the en
terprise to send m reporter way ont to Natiok on
purpose to see the Vice President and bring
back word of bla bcdily estate. Mr. Wilson
was ont riding when tbe reporter arrived, bat
presently returned, got down from the oarriage
wilhont help, went straight to his bed room,
and, while resting, underwent his interview.
He was at work on his “Slave Power In Ameri-
be aaid, when the stroke came. The mus
cles affected were those in tbe right side of the
face. He at once took medical advioe, was for
bidden to read or write, and subjected to a
treatment that has wrought a slow bnt unmis
takable improvement. He sleeps well, enjoys
meals and is assured by his doctor that he

yet, bnt the mnscles of the forehead and ohsek
are peroeptibly resuming their normil notion.
Yesterday be had decided to disoontinne tbe
medicine and tbe ice-packs hitherto applied to
his back, with tbe view of testing the reality
and peimanenoe of the apparent gains. He
does not contemplate any surgical operation,
dangerous or otherwise; bnt he does feel
confident that the beginning of the session will
find him in his place in the Senate, restored to
health and ready for business. "His neigh

Was this stroke meant as s warning to Wilson
oease his labors npon s work that oan only

defense of his administration and of the ac

cherished belief gone! We are now told, at a
day which Is certainly ridicclocs'y late, that the
car of Jcggernant, so far as the crashing ot
volnntary victims is concerned, is a hum bog.
Dr. Pringle writes to the London Times thst
the deaths icflioted by the oar are entirely doe
to accident, though the native priests have no
sort of otjretion to such accidents, being ex
ceedingly glad when they oocur. It takes a
crowd of 1,300 or 1,500 devotees to drag tbe
moostroos car, with its sixteen hoge spiked
wheels, and oonfnsed and entangled in the four
or five long ropes which they hold, many of
these poor wretobee naturally fall and are
crushed ont of life under Iboee great wheels.
Since an English commissioner ordered nets te
be fixed to the car for the proteotion of the peo
ple the deaths have beoome fewer. For the
sake of humanity, we ere glad to know that

An svent has jnst occurred in the trade of

recently some three hundred and twenty thou
sand feet of yellow pine lumber were shipped
by nut frcm here to Cincinnati at a less oost

northern poita. Anrlher order has been re
ceived in the oity tor a bill of three hundred
thousand feet to be need in rebuilding the Gib
son Honae, whioh was bnrned sometime ago.
The cause of this is said to be, and very res-
aonably, that while Urge quantities of freight
have been brought to the r»nlh from different
portions of the Wes’, there have been no return
shipments, and the trams have returned almost
empty.
Tex steamship Darien will sail from Liver

Mr. Lincoln’s views of what was right in

views now held at Washington. The following
letter, written by him in 1861, expressed his
opinions :
Executive Maxsxex, Washington,'*
, 4 _ _ November 21,1804. J
Dean Sib : Dr. Kennedy, bearer of this, has
some apprehension that Federal tffiuers, not
citizen!, or Louisians, may be set np as candid
dries for Congreaa in that State. In my view
there oonld be co possible otjsct in anohan
election. We do not partlonUrly need mem
bers ot Congress from there to enable ns io get
along with legislation here. What we do want
U the conolnsive esideooe that respeotable citi
zens of Louisiana are willing to be members of
Congress and to swear to support the Constitn-
tion, and that other reseeotable citizens are will
ing to vote for them and send them. To send
a parcel of Northern men here aa reptecenta-
tivea, elected, as wonld be understood (and per

satisfied if it ib properly applied it will kill all the
caterpillars npou the cotton without injury to the

five acres per day.
