STRIPED BUG.-Jonathan p. West Of
Morristown says he has successfully de-
Tended his vine patches against the ravages
of these mischievous creatures, by means
of very simple process, which we do not
recoIlect to have heard Of before. 1t is
this:
Lay board, one or more according to
the size of your patch. between the rows
in such a manner as to afford a shelter TO
toads in the day time, and leave it undis-
turbed, SO that they will make their home
under it, which they viii do great num-.
bers. At night they sally out and devour
every bug, and grow fat as Aldermen.
He says he has had dozen or more of
these little philanthropists make their
home under single board not more than
six feet long, and perfectly protect his
vines. The process Is 50 simple, and the
authority for its perfect success so good
and direct, sha, everybody should try ii

We welcome to our exchange list that ably
and fearlcssly edited paper, the " La Crosse

of its Editor, " Brick Pomeroy, who is ably
assisted by the facile and powerful pen Of
Mr. Charles Lobdell. Brick Pomeroy, has
just set out on his Southern tour, and as he
will follow up the line Of march Of General
Sherman and his army, his contributions to
the Democrat will be of considerable interest
to the Southern reader. From a note re-
ccivcd from Mr.. Lobdcll, VIC learn that it is
probable that Brick" may take our city in
route. We suggest that he may find vast
field of information for the Northern reader
in our frequently ovcr-run section, and es-
pecially in the wanton distinctions Of Gems
Hunter and Sheridan in our once beautiful
Valley. We hope he may visit this section
and promise him welcome reception.

An Army for Congress.

A military member of the House of Rep
resentatives, Gen. Paine, of Wisconsin, has
submitted to that body a bill to reconstruct
the militia system of the United States 1t
provides that all able bodied citizens over
eighteen shall be enrolled within sixty days
of the passage of the bill. 1t also provides
for national guard of two regiments in each
Congressional district. Among the qualif-
cations is that of loyalty" Officers are to
be elected by the troops, and commissioned
by the Governors. The latter shall exercise
authority over the national guard, and no
State shall be permitted to organize any
other troops. No Governor shall exercise
authority'ov the troops unless be has taken
the iron-clad oath. Congress may order the
national guard into service to repel invasion
or to suppress Instruction; it may also aid
in the execution of the law in any State. A
refusal to serve subjects offenders to a pen
atty as desertcrs. 1t provides also that the
national guard shall become part of the
regular army in time Of war. The bill is
obviously intended to furnish Congress with
standing army to overcome the people of
the States, and enable Washinston cabal to
successfully resist the enforcement Of the
Constitution and laws by the Executive and
Supreme Court, and perfect its scheme of
revolution .-Rachn,ond Wing.

Loudoun county, the judgments entered on
the bench docket for the year ending June

and (estimatcd) entries for $25, 500, or in
all $175, 900; the deeds of trust to secure

deeds Of trust to secure deferred payments on
purchases Of real estate amount to 1913, 936,
and inasmuch as they are usually two-thirds
of the whole sale, it would result that $l31,-
915 worth Of real estate changed hands in
