It may not bo generally known that Cumberland Island to now in daily com munication with tho outside world. Tho boat makes regular trips now, and thus parties can leave Macon at any time and make connection at Brunswick. Fiom those who have just returned from the island, we leant that the weather is de- lighttul and the fishing good, there bcirg plenty of shrimp bait. Tho lover of good ‘ Ling should take in the island. The following letter has jast been receiv. ed from Mr. Nat Harris: Editors Telegraph and Messenjeri I have jast returned from s trip to Macon’s seaside resort, Cumberland Island. The crowd down then is cot large, bat is pleas ant and in the best of spirit*. The accom modations are much better than last year. The fish bite, the sea bi'da are tame, and tho huckleberry bushes are loaded ovith npo fruit. Tho mele visitors wear blue hunting shirts, but the females cm dress in any style they please. The sea voyage going and coming is just about long enough nud exciting enough to satisfy those in'aodera like my self who are afraid of too mnch salt water, and then the bath ing is the best on the continent. Traveled gentry who have visited the place toll me that the beach on Cumberland- Island is surpassed by none of tho famous watering places in the United tita'e*. Edgar Bo's has fitted up good bath-house.*, and ea- peeiaily has built an arbor near the brach for the beuefit of those who wish to look on merely, without “toying with the mane of old oojan." 1 did not see nor hear of n mosquito or sandfly. Altogether this is decidedly a pleasant resort, cool and in vigorating. The little steamboat “Islander” now rnna regularly between Brunswick nnd Camberland Island. She is a staunch, trim boat—a side wheeler, and her Pilot informed me that she was well fitted for the service, and perfectly safe. She has been caught in two or three gales sine* •he entcrid upon the ran, and behaved admirably—in fact she surprised the pilot, who is an old and experienced navigator of these waters. The seafaring men iabont Brunswick told me that she was as good a boat, it not even better, than the Vittla Marts*-, which is high praise, I found a portion of the wharf at High Point broken down, but the tide was high and we easily made the landing on the part of the wharf yet left.

I reply to yon, as I have to every ono who has written ms—I shall not seek the position. I cannot ontor into a personal contest for it, yet I woa'd not de cline the honor should the convention ten- derittomo. I do not desire any strife over my name. I prefer peace and har mony, and would subordinate personal as pirations nnd ambition to the unity and success of the Dsmocratio party. I havo teen prompted also to thisoonrso, because I havoporsonal friends who aspire to the position, any ono of whom would do honor to it and tho State. 1 do not desire to an tagonize them, perhaps at the expense of harmony and good feeling. This is no time for dissension and strife. Important elections nro npon us, ami nothing ehonld bo dono to endanger onr success. The party has not entirely recovered from the bitterness of tho last campaign. I do not wish to becomo a “bone of con tention” again. Somo years ngo I aspired to i>osition. I saw tho majority of the people were against me, yet it was urged, under the required two-thirds vote,the will of that majority could bo thwarted. I de clined to bo a party to such a contest, and determined that as far as it was in my power tho will of the i»eople should be carried out. Two years ago, in our State convection, we had strife, which, owing to passionate and imprudent speeches, solid ified parties and resulted in serious di vision in onr ranks. It is known to rnnny 1 did all in ray powor to maintain harmony then, and when pi evented from following tho ilietato* of my own judgment, I urged those personal friends to whom I could appeal, to abandon me and make a nomination and save the party. Some yielded to my aoqnest, indorsed as it was bv their own sense of propriety, and had all in that convention been prompted by similar motives, we would have b*en spar ed a contest in Georgia which reflected no credit upon the Demcratlo party. I desire no sneh straggle again over mr name, and for that reason I say I do not desire to en ter into a contest for the podtion. If the party wish to confer npon me the honor of Congressman at large, they will of “their own acoord” give it to me, and I will ac cept it. If they prefer to confer it upon another, I will without a murmur do. as I did in the dark days of Georgia when we were struggling to reveno the State from Republican rule nnd reconstruction op- prtM-sion, fall into the ranks, and as a pr vain citizen, go with the foremost ini every Congiessional district in Georgia,! following the banner and fighting as val iantly as I may be able the battles of a harmonions and united Democratic party.

Tho Cotton Caterpillar. ■ Editors Telegraph and Messenger:—] There appeared in yonr daily of Jnne 27th |an interesting letter on the cotton cater pillar, from Capt. John P. Fort After stating the pecuniary loss to the State of Georgia by the ravage# of the caterpillar, and referring to the insect enemies of the I I worm, be details an important incident, as [Late last fall I obtained a cotton moth and carefully secured it in a small box. |On examining it toward the apring, I found that a parasite was in the moth when cap tured, nnd ou careful examination with a good microscope, I found that the para- sito had lived some time within the body of the moth, having devonrtd the inner por-l tionof the body nnd emerge-l from a round orifice in the centro ofthebaek. •! regret very much that the parasite had escaped. 1 About Jt<G0 the i>otAto beetle was dis covered iu Nebraska and Iowa. It ad vanced eastward fifty to seventy miles a year until it has spread all over the Wes tern, Middle and Ea-torn States, and has oven crossed into Europe. Such*n calami tous insect iuvasion has scarcely boon known in history. The Irish pot ito seemed * be doom ‘d. The vigorous application Baris green and of other inneons wan only remedy for jear-. Within a few years, however, many in-ect enemies have ilevolopod and multiplied, and the power am sure that the moth was the tree Aletio.'

Many caterpillars were known lobe destroyed by birds, waspe, and other external enemies. I An ichneumon parasite also bad been seen by intelligent observers at the Booth, bat had not come to the knowledge of self enlists. The investigations of the coml | mission iu 1K78-'J brought to light thirteen] parasitic enemies of the caterpillar. Of I these, on* destroys the eggs of _ the worm j and the remaining twelve ‘ caterpillar or the chrysalis. W I Tho peculiar destructive powers of the parasitio enemies over those of the exUr-l nal enemies, as birds, wasps ate., aral shown in tha fact that the latter catch ana destroy a caterpillar occasionally as part of their varied food, wherr.as the parasites spend their Uvea in deporiling their nu merous eggs upon or in the bodice of cat- erpillsrs. Tbe young hatched from these eggs, borrow into the caterpillars, and feed upon their fatty parts. Borne mature rap idly and isene from the caterpillar*, which I die in that stage. Others mature more •lowly, and the caterpillar peseta into the chrysalis stage, before D succumbs. As tbe caterpillars form the sole food of these par- aritee, and as tbe Utter lay hundreds of •eg* and have ecvoral brood* in a season, it will be seen that tbe paroeific enemies I of the cotton-worm contribute noitffi keep it in check. Tbe importance of the fact Chronicled by Captain Fort will be scan by the follow ing sUtemeut of the operations of these thirteen parasites. As to seasons, tto e/gf parasite has been observed in the ■■■ active also in tie I the tachina and other files areL... ■ while tbe ichneumons appear intheUte fall. As to tbe stages of life, they are all confined to the rgg, the larva and the chrys alis. None disturb ths mature or moth \stage. But the moth preverted by Csptain Fort seems to have harbored a parasite some kind. If farther observations devfl lop it a* a t.ue parasite of tbe cotton moth in the late fail, the round of inseet enemies •f the Utter will be complete. It wiilffid reen to be hounded to dealb, in all seasoi and in ail stages cf its life, by minute eJPI I mice, against which it baa no defense.

Washington, July C.—A report of tho autopsy npon Guiteao, signed ly acting assistant t-nrgoon of the army, Dr. J. H. Lamb, has l»een forwnrdo<I to Philadelphia for publication in the .NVu-s. The opening paragraph describes it a* tho of ficial rej>ort of the autopsy, but it does not n to whom the rej»ort was made, nnd it lacks the signature* of Dr*. Some™ and Hnrtigiin, who were de-munled by Distnet Attorney OoikhlU aa the n«>vociate* of Lamb in making the autopey, and who were present nt tho diAaoo* tion of GuiteAa'a body. In ntterance-* to newspaper men Dr. Lamb declines to reoognize theso two physicians ns having any right to a voice in making the report, nnd no prepared tho document without consulting them in any way. District-Attorney Cork lull, on tho other hand, say* Dr. l^unb had no nathority to net independently of the above nnrnod physicians and the latter annouuce.their intention of preparing another report, which will bo the majority report. Dr. Lamb's action in tha* ignoring the other physicians was a surpriso to them nnd to Corkhili. Dr*. Bomera and Hartignu affirm that Lamb's report disagrees in important particulars from notes taken hy Lhenmlve* and by other physicians rosent at tho post-mortem, bat Dr. Lnmb as po»ses*ion of thoso notea and decline* to permit the other surgeon* to see them. 1 ho latter Aceordirgly will prepare their report fmm duplicate notos and other memoranda, and from momory. Dr. Lamb in hi* report states that it is made in no- eordanco with a request from Rev. Mr, Hicks- The roport is entirely too technical to be intelligiblo to tL^ gu::ornl reader, ex cept as to points which havo already been telegraphed, to-wit, that tho masdes of tho nock were torn asunder, bnt that the bone was not broken; that the brain woigbed 40K ounces, nnd that tho spleon was nbnormnlly large.

Washington, July 7.—The Senate, early iu the morning hour, resumed considera tion of the river and harbor bill, the ques tion being npon the Hennepin canal project reported Uy tho Senate committee. General debate followed, participated in by Messrs. Logan, Vest, Hawley, Sherman, Allison, Dawes, Windom, Butler and Mor gan. Tbe Northwestern Senators favored tire project and the Southern and Eastern opposed it, bnt upon different grounds. Mr. Morgan, in urging the nnconstitation- nlity of tho canal rchtrne, said its pnrpoeo was to dticrimlna'o against ona port in favor of another by diverting traffic from New Orleans to Chicago and breaking bulk at the latter point. Without action, the Senate went into executive eoeslog and adjourned. novtE. Tto House, at 11:16 a. ro., went into committee of tho whole (Ka«-on, of Iowa, in the chair) on tho sundry civil appro priation hill, the general debate to closo at 2 o'clock. As no member claimed the floor in order to continue the general de bate, the dsrk proceeded to read the bill by sections for amendments. An smend- men t was adopted appropriating $35,0U0 fur tbe erectioa of a public building at Dill,4-. Texas. Mr. Batterworlh, of Ohio, injected, a po litical speech into the debate, tn the oourso of which he went into a consideration of the etreumitance* attending hi* election to the fort) .fourth Congre**, and created considerable amusement by his descrip tion of the method* which he asserteJ had been pract.ced by the Democratic party. Mr. Cox, of New Yo’k, interruptod to in quire what Batterworlh thought of the re moval of Mr. timitii, internal revenue col lector st Cincinnati. Mr. Ualterworth did bot give a direct answer, bat in the ojarae of bis reply iaid to Cox: “You have a dtotriol ea thoroughly rotten that it votes the Democratic ticket by instinct-” This angered C« somewhat, and he re plied that each a remark came with bod grace from a gentleman who bad seduced a man, who, according to the gentleman, was a Democratic prostitute. In reply Batterworlh made an allusion which is not of a nature fit for publication, and which waa characterized by Cos aa tha remark of a blackguard. Bobeeqoently an effort was made to have the colloquy omitted from the record, and il was ac complished, though cot until a debate had gone on for some tine of such a character ladies to retire from the galleries. Mr. Batterworlh concluded his speech with an attack upon the Democratic party ozul its profusions of civil service reform. ,Inthe!44th Congrats, ha said, that party had ridden into power In tbe House fetlock deep In human b 00J.
