3. The Wheat Caterpillar. This is span
worm of brownish color, with twelve feet-six
near each end of the body. 1t feeds on the
Aernal in the milky stale. and also devours the
terminating end of the ripe grain. II is said
be found in the chsif when the grain is threshed.
We have liule certain knowledge concerning
the parent Insect or its transformations.
In addition 10 these three, there are probably
other insectsmore or less injurious to our whea,
crops. Much has been published in our jour
nails relative TO these depredators; yet their hab-
its are imperlecily understood, and many of the
accounts are confused and contradictory. It's
greatly TO be desired that all who have the op-
prruniiy should endeavor to make careful OBJ
servations, and communicate them to the public.
These observations must be accompanied by
accurate descriptions of the insect under exam
malion, and in its various stages otherwise,
most of the labor will be spent in vain.

The Whig Cause.

The recent elections throughout the Union
afford conclusive testimony that the Wing par
ty is not disbanded, as our opponents predicted
it would be, after our defeat last fall, but that
its principles were never more arden'ly cher
ished than they are at this time. Notwih-
standing the Dorr demonstration in Rhode ISL
and, we have done nobly in that little State
In Connection, our triumph has been over
whelming beyond all expectation. We have
not only elected all the State officers, but have
carried every member Of Congress. The town
elections, in the several States, have also been
equally cheering. We have succeeded in ma
ny places where locofocoism has always here
tofore been rampant. These demonstrations
should certainly encourage US, and induce US
to remain firm 10 our principles-which are
destined soon 10 triumph most gloriously.

Coleman's Improved Piano Forte,

The late editor of the Lebanon Courier, Mr..
Frysinger, who is native of York county, Pa.
where he has resided the greater part of his
life, in an article written two or three months
since on this subject, denies that Mr.. Coleman
was the inventor of the improvement for which
he became SO renowned both in this country
and in Europe. He says:
"The honor of this invention, we are GER
tain, does not belong TO the one who seems like
y to reap its advantages, but TO an old gentle
man, (Mr. ADAM AULT,) residing in York coun-
ty, Pa. in whose house there now is, and has
been, for number of years, an instrument COM
bining all the qualities claimed for Mr. Cole
mans. 1t was projected some fifteen or lwen-
ty years ago, and intended for present 10 his
youngest daughter, then but five or SIX years
old. That daughter unfortunately died in the
bloom of youth, and year upon year elapsed be-
self to labor at an instrument, designed for one
whom he had hoped would be the stay and CON-
fort of his remaining days. Twas subsequent

PerpetuaI Motion.

The presen, age seems to revive the explo-

the strides OF science in their application to

perpetual motion as i, is possible to conceive
that The nature of earthly things will admit
These clocks have bu, three wheels and are

A Washington correspondent of the New
York Sun says:
Considerable activity is observable here in
diplomatic circles. England and France are
driving the annexation question to crisis, for
which our Government is fully prepared. The
concentration of a strong naval force in the
Gulf, and an efiicien. army on the Texian from
tiers, ready for prompt action, prepare US for
any event tina, may ,ranspire. Expresses have
been forwarded over land 10 the Pacific, 10 our
forces in that quarter. The Cabinet are turn
ing their attention TO steam packe, lines Over
lures for the building Of thirteen large steamers
have already been received, and am glad to
say that this great national measure is on the
eve of being adopted-the law Of the last Con-
gress gives the Government all necessary pow
er, and it meets with great favor"

Rhode Island Election.

The loco papers claim the election Of Gov
ernor Jackson as democratic victory. If the
election of Wings instead Of democrats, and the
pointed condemnation of the Texas iniquity, be
democratic victory, then is the election Of
Rhode Island democratic victory. Fenner
and Potter were supplanled by two wings, be-
cause of their real or supposed approval of the
annexation scheme. That the election of Jack
son is an indication ,ha, the people are in favor
of the unconditional Liberation of Dorr may be
true. Thousands Of whigs s,aunch law and or

Our Foreign Relations.

Within week past great change has taken
place in The aspect Of our affairs with foreign
countries We have received news from Eng
land which indicates great difficulty, and a
probable rupture in regard TO Oregon and
from Mexico,' which shows that that country
has stopped all diplomatic intercourse with US.
This warlike aspect of things is any thing but
agreeable; and il becomes our government, and
the people generally, TO do all in their power,
consisten. with the honor of the nation, 10 avert
the threatened danger.
The Inaugural Address OF Mr.. Polk has
stirred up feeling in England, in regard TO
Oregon, which it will be difficult TO alay The
unconciiating manner in which he asserts our
claim TO exclusive possession of the territory,
has produced a counteracting influence in that
country, and her statesmen deny in the most
emphatic terms, the correctness of his premi-
ses, and declare that England has rights in
Oregon which she will never surrender to the
United States. They are willing TO compromise
all difficulties in relation to establishing the
boundary-but will not give all, and receive
none. This does not suit the far-seeing policy
of Mr.. Polk, who says beforehand las if to pre-
vent all amicabe arrangement that the whole
belongs to US, and he is determined to yield
none. In this state of the case, we are unable
10 see how the difficulty can be settled without
resor, to arms. England or the United States
must recede from their position in order TO
avert it. Which will do SO!
In Mexico, the Annexation Resolutions have
produced stale Of things. A Resolution has
been introduced into their Congress, making ii
High Treason for any person to express him.
self in favour Of yielding up Texas 10 u.s. Our
Minister has been officially informed that all
diplomatic relations between Mexico and the
United States are discontinued and the Minis
ter OF Foreign Relations has directed Protest
TO the Ministers of England, France and Spain,
now in that country, in which he denounces
Annexation, and expresses the determination OF
HE government 10 strive 10 preserve the integ-
riiy OF Mexico. This, then, also looks exceed
ingy warlike on The part Of our neighbors Of
New Spain. Unless wise councils prevail,
and that spirit of peace and amiiy, which has
heretofore characterised us as nation, are
adopted, we will be likely soon TO have as much
fighting as ibe noisiest demagogue, who pam
ders 10 the worst passions OF the multitude, can
desire. Our prayer is that the honour Of our
country may be preserved, and peace maintained.

THE LAW OF NEWSPAPERS.
L. Subscribers who do no, give enpreSs no.
tice 10 the contrary, are considered as wishing
TO continue their subscriptions.
Q. If subscribers order the discontinuance OF
their papers, the publishers may continue TO
send them ill all a.rearages are paid.
3. Ii subscribers neglect or refuse TO take
their papers from the officers to which they are
directed, they are held responsible till they
have settled their bill, and ordered :heir papers
discontined.
4. If subscribers remove to other places with
ou. informing The publishers, and their paper is
sent 10 the former direction, they are held re-
sponsibie.
5. The courts have decided that refusing TO
take newspaper or periodical from the office,
or removing and leaving it uncalled for. is 'pri-
