AMUsEMENTs.
Academy OF Music.

Go TO the Academy this evening. The
house is well ventilated, and currents of
cool air projected by steam fan the brews
of all who go to the Academy for comfort
and to get cooled OF. The Yankee authors
of the political burlesques and the Yankee
actors on the stage, like Bi ly Carter, under
stand their business to a dot. The way
they fool the rebels is most amusing. The
Ac deny is doing excellent work IN recon
structton, and all Republicans appreciate
the efforts of its managers in bringing rebel
sentiments into ridicule and dierepute. The
benefit of Treasurer kittredge last evening
was brilliant affair, rendered more so by
the grand pyrOtechnic display outside and
the dazzling beauty of the ladies inside of
the house; Kittredge ought to have some
idea by this time of the number of his
friends, who are legion. A big bill this
evening, including the Olio performances.
We omitted to state in the proper place
that Immediately before the close Of the
entertainment last evening there were
urgent calls for "Kittl1 "Kit?" "Kitt-
redge ~ to which that gentleman responded
gracefully and briefly, thanking his hosts of
warm and enthusiastic friends for their
kind remembrance of him.
The New Orleans correspondent of the
Alexandria Democrat is more truthful than
gallant in saying:
Among the dancers are Carnaggia and
Malvina Evers; the one extraordinary for
her grace ard vigor as a premiere danseuse
aud for her ugly face aud ungainly walk on
the street; the other with limbs like an
Amazon and a form and stature which
would serve as model for Hippolyta or
Penthesilia.

KIllina the Cntton Worm.

In 1864 millions of dollars worth of cotton
was destroyed by the worms, aid men who
supposed they were sure of fortunes were
impoverished by the unexpected loss Of
almost entire crops. Experiments since
then have demonstrated that the worms can
be killed, and their destructive ravages pre-
vented. A correspondent of the Natchi.
toches Times says, relating the result of his
experiments last year:
Now that the cotton is small, the worms,
moths, and chrysales can be easily found
and destroyed. By gently striking each
stalk of cotton with a switch or paddle the
caterpillar can be knocked off. A laborer
can thus go over about ten acres of cotton
per day. The pupR can at the same time
be easily detected, folded up in the leaves
Going over the cotton once every two or
three weeks would be sufficient to nearly
annihilate the caterpillars. Fires kindled
about dusk would be very beneficial in de-.
strOying the moths. 1t takes twentyeight
days for the caterpillar to go through its
different changes of existence. The planters
need not be discouraged. If they are ener-
getic in their attempt to destroy the cater
pillars they will greatly check their ravages.

COLoRED DEMocnATs.-The Red river Dem.

COLoRED DEMocRATs.-The Red river Dem.
ecrats have become convinced of the wisdom
of enfranchising colored men, and are
making endeavors to win their votes. The
Nstchitoches Times is in ecstacies over the
arrival there from Baton Rouge of two
colOred Democrats, of whom it says:
Scott Gordon and E. H. Pierson, two
earnest workers and champions of the col
ored Democracy, have come among us to
restore that kindly feeling between the
white and black men of the South which
has unfortunately been interrupted by de-
signing men.
We welcome them as the harbingers OF
restored friendship between the two races,
and the beginning of a better period for
both white and black. We have long felt
that there is no good reason why the two
races should not dwell together in unity,
peace, and mutual friendship-working to
gether to develop the prosperity of our
common country and the advancement Of
both races.
The same paper, at later date, says Of
their speeches:
Everybody was pleased, as the lively and
frequent applause attested, and few who
were present viii ever forget the earnest
manner of the speakers and the pointed
truths enunclated by them. We commend
them to the Democracy OF the State-they
are true men, who know how to fight the
good fight with the keenest weapons, and
win leave their mark behind them wherever
they go.
The Natchitoches Spectator reports bar.
beeue at Campte by the Democratic Con.
servative club, addressed by three gentle.
men whom it names and adds:
After which several colored men of both
parties discussed the political issues of the
day for the edidcation OF their own race aud
color. The affair terminated quietly, with
harmony and good feeling prevailing be-
tween all.
1t is pleasant 70 note the rapid progress
that the Democrats of Louisiana are max.
ing in the recognition of the essential prin-
Ciple of reconstruction-th enfranchise-
ment of colored men. With these liberal
views there is no danger of war of races,
