We deeply regret to learn that
the worm, rot and rust, have at
tackled the cotton in many portions
of Madison and adjoining counties
In addition to our unfavorable sea-
son, these destroyers of our great
staple must needs appear to blight
the prospects of planters, and leave
di. aster as the result of their toll
and industry. Thus it will be seen
that our farmers have painfully re
allied the truth of the old adage,
that 'smisfortunes do not come
singly." We truly sympathize with
these hardy tillers of the soil in the
great injury to their crops that these

Blasphemy Punished.

| The Athens Georgian relates the
following remarkable circumstance,
which, if true, should be solemn
warning to the prOfane and bias
phemous:
''There is a report prevailing on
the streets that man living near
Sculls shoals, about twenty miles
below this city, told his wife last
Saturday night to awake him up be-
fore odd God Almighty woke OIL
Sunday as he wanted to catch "a
a mess of fish for break fast. His
wife, in accordance with his lnstruc-
lions, called him before day Sunday
morning, and he, taking his fishing
tackle went to the stream, and,
finding IA tempting hole, took his
seat upon the rock. His wife wait
ed anXiously for his arrival, but he
not appearing toward night she
summoned some neighbOIs and
went in quest of the truant. Going
to the. Stream, she found the miss
ing man seated upon u rock, and
upon the party requesting him to
to get up and accompany them home
he told them that the Almighty
had sent judgement upon him and
he had tecOme part of the rock
