regions of Booth Florida, LoaiaUna and
ToBW, and usually appears there in great.
„ or lees qnanUtiee, owing to the ohangea
„f weather and quantity of food (cotton)
it find*.
jlj masons for this opinion are as fob
'Trior to the late war—the culture of
n|sr cane being more profitable—there
wu hot little cotton planted in that sec.

Consequently, their forces were too weak
to reach oar latitnde exoopt nt long inter
red and then only after a mild winter—
when they snrvired north of the oanebelt
_*bere they fonnd plenty of cotton the
following summer upon whioh to propa-
gste by the million, until their forces
were snfflcient to consume the ootton and
m ueh on North until they reaohed our
Hdion. But, since tbs wer, the high
prioe of ootton caused those people to
tbsndcn sugar oane and take np cotton.
Consequently, the caterpillar annually ap.
pears there, and if the season ia favors
his, they multiply by the wholesale and
continue nntil they reach ns annually.
Csn Ur. P. remember more than three
or fcnr visits of thin pent to this section
prior to tbs late war ? Have they not
visited him nearly every year Bince
Doea he not always hear of them some
where South before he sees them in his
fields ? Did he ever know them to visit
North Goorgia, But Tennessee, North
Caroline or Virginia? And why not, if
they era bat Iho spontaneous prod action
of tbs ootton plant.
Ur. P. says the ostsrpillsr does not ra
mie in the chrysalis state over forty
eight boon. My obaarvation is, that
under some circumstances, they can and
do remain so for months. In 18G8 the
caterpillar appeared bore lets in the set-
soil, tnd on the 12th of October frost
ought millions of them when many
ihosatndt of them ware In the ohrysalis

notioed them ohrysalis manifested life

The weather kept cold, and on the 6th of
November I carefully examined aereral of
them, and found by gradually warming

0. J. H. ssys that a few dozen survived
the winter of 1872-73, four miles west of
Coltftnbua, in a room little need.
These being facia, can any one donbt
that they do annually hybernate in a
region almost perpetually spring?
If my theory ia true, then the remedy
ie for Congroas to protect the sugar inter
est by tariff to tha amount of twenty or
twenty-five million, and thereby restore
the cultivation of angar-oane to its origi
ns! extent, and tbns save to the ootton
turner fifty to seventy-five million.
I am opposed to protective tariffs (ex-
eept when they benefit me), but I am con
fident that a Ux'4n foreign engars would
pet a atop to the annuel visits of this
great curse to ootton.
Nature designed that section for the
projection of sugar, end to plsot ootton
■here is a violation of her law, and banco

If a* cotton caterpillar hibernates in

from its chrysalis web ? The chrysalis
forms you saw on the stalks in November,
no doubt were the worms retarded in their
growth and obanga by the frost. Did you

rod If the moth come forth aoy time from
November until Muy, what becomes of it ?
Iu mission is only to lay its eggs and die.
