Gentlemen About lU day. ago we were visited,
in this neishborhnOd, by inyriads of striped, black
worms, having somewhat the appearance "f cater.

are very dark aud small, not NOR. than half an inch
in length aud glel,der. Alter feeding &C grass Il day

days. Ihey seem To enter ali the fields at the north
or northwest edge and TO move rapidly forward IN
n northern or n nnrth-westrrIy direction, dcvouring
first the grass, or the timothy and wheat aud Oat
Stubble and clover fields. Having ravaged these,
they then seize upon the corn fields, eating up first
the grass, then the fodder, and in nunbrrless ir-
stances, seizing upon the ears of corn. A. far ~ my
observation goes, they seein TO spare nothing in their
path, except the white turmip. the field pea and the
bitterest weeds. In some Instances they make slight
attacks upon these. In some cases they have de-
strOyed from Il quarter to one. hall Of the fodder OH the
stalk. Aud, most remarkable oi ell, they seem equal

some instances, more than q hundred al these worms
have been shaken from q single bundle at fodder; and

in n single night. These WORMS ne scattered nj in

In the Bakimor Potriot, a veracious Know Moth
ing sheet, we fluid a long list OF prominent men VINO
mr.. said to have deserted the Democratic aud joined
the Fillmore party. In this list ID the following:
Of. A. Peirpoint, of Fair,n"nt, Virgins, has come
OUT in u telling speech for Fillmore, and against Buc.
hanan, aud he WAS all ardent supporter OF Wise III
the late contest
The above is not only false, hut absurdly false. Mr..
Peirpoiut has always beru II Whig-a consistent, un-
changing, virulsnt enemy OF the Democratic party.
lie was u prominent man III the old " hig party ana
although we have no idea that he took upon himself
the terrible obligations of Know Nothinsism, yet he
was a friend Of Journeys, aud anxious 10 see him
elected, nud no doubt voted for him. We have not
examined the poll.book, because the Clerk o; the
county NIGH, laugh us Ia srorn if we were Ia tell him
that we wanted to examine it in order to ascertain
how Mr.. p. voted, 50 ridiculous is the story c"uSid-
cred here. We ~recnllect hearing n Democratic
speaker say to his hearers during the Wise campaign
something ike this "You know Frank Peirpoint. lie
is going for Fiournoy.!. They wanted no better proof
that Know Nottingham was opposed to Democracy.

Writings of Frederick Douglas, for which Mr..
Epson charged the exorbitant price of So so,
which Mr.. Woodcock promptly paid A com.
mlttee Of Vigilance, consisting of twenty five
OF our leading men, soon met at the Battle
House, sent for Messrs Strickland and Upsop.
and, after giving them q fair hearing, required
them to give bonds in the sum Of SIS 900 each
for their appearance before the committee the
next day for further eX animation
Meantime an examination of their stock
and account books proved the statements of
OF strickland and Epson to have been utterly
false. Instead Of these two or three comics
having accidentally got into their store with
a lot of second hand books, as stated by them,
their press-letter book contained an order, in
Mr strickland's handwriting, for Fifty copies
OF said work. On Thursday, tho accused ap.
