THE POTATO Bug IN IowA.-All accounts agree
that the pOtatO-bng movement this season is
unusually early and formidable. Mr.. Joseph
Bennett informed MS on SATURDAY. that in field
of potatoes on the island, which he planted in
April, there are an average of nine bugs to each
potato. In patch he has on the bluff they are
not qnite so bad Mr.. W. p Frasier estimates
the number of bugs on bis at half dozen TO each
plant. He has noticed many of them on the
wing, aud they invariably fly eastward. OF
course, unless the bngs come to premature and
unexpected end, they will completely destroy
the potato crop this season. 1t is said, however,
that certain species of ant has appeared and is
destroying them in great numbers. The propa-

IL The Sabetha AdrdRee asks us how we
would like to support d. W. Wilder for Govern
or, and Robert Tracy for State Treasurer. We
could vote that ticket, without scratch. But
it so happens that Wilder is candidate, of his
own choice, for reelection as Auditor, ard does
not aspire to the Governorship. Then, We had
already spoken in favor of Doniphan County
man for an important Office, and were too mod
est to ask all the Offices for this County. Besides,
Bob says he wouldn't give the bond required of

" Another misfortune! The Wathena Re.
porter has cut our acquaintance-cut it, too, at
the very time when it was devoting an unusual
amount of space to our benefit. We had hoped
to be able to say, in language similar to the
beautiful words of Jonathan to David: "Thou
shalt not cut off thy kindness from my house for
ever; no, not when the Lord hath cut of the en-
emies of old man Stewart every one from the
face of the earth" But he has done it! While
we mourn our bereavement, we still have one
crumb of consolation-the Cincinnati Gazette
still exchanges with us!

~ Robert Riddle, the defsulting Treasurer Of
Jefferson County, has had his trial, and been ac-
Quilted. One who is acquainted with the cir
eumstances, says he thinks the aequittal was
principally upon the ground that Riddle was q
fool If it is coming to this, it will be necessary
hereafter, when man is nominated for County
Treasurer, for the Probate Judge to summon q
jury, to decide whether the candidate is fool or
not. In some Counties, the voters resolve them
selves into jury, and render their decision at
the ballot-bpx. They did this in Andrew Coun-
ty, Missouri, some four or five years ago.

yet they have bolted from the church, because a

VANDERBILT's WHITE CRA-
VAT Speaking of the white cra-
vat which Commodore Wander
bilt always wears, one of his
friends asked him one day if it
did not secure for him a good
many clerical favors. The Com
modOre replied that he did not re-
member of any important advan-
tage that he had ever derived
from wearing it; but said that he
had sometimes been taken for a
clergyman, and once rather ludi-
crously. He was coming down
town in Fourth avenue car,
when two young men entered,
both drunk enough to be in a con-
fiding mood. Perceiving the
snow looks and white necker-
chef on the other side of the car,
one of them nudged the other
with his elbow, and then moving
down on the seat until he was OPP

The English Language.

Morse's system of telegraphy
is powerful means Of spreading
the English language throughout
the world. It is found that more
matter can be sent in the English
than in any other language.
ffts> simplicity, .conciseness, and
strength put it into the very fore
front of the battle between West
ern civilization and the sleepy
empire of the East. English
capital invested in railroads,
steamships, and lines of telegra-
ply, as though so many mighty
arteries, is pouring fhe resistleSs
power and uniting energy of ali
the English speaking nations
through the barriers of heathen-
ism. Wherever English capital
goes, there goes with it the En-.
glish language-progressive,a ag-
gressive. dominant, and unyield-
ing: Japan is about to adopt it as
a national language; it is rapidly
spreading throughout India; it is
calling pretty loudly at the closed
doors of China; it is sinking along
the shores, and around the islands
of Polynesia. Australia is now
with Europe by an En-
glish-speaking wire, and the is
lands of the East Indies are feel
ing the influence of this resistless
tide. And so will this vast cur
rent keep flowing on and on till it
penetrates to the four quarters Of
the earth.

A MONSTER CLAM BAKE.-The
clam bake at P Portland, Maine, for
the Odd Fellows celebration
which occurred on the twenty
fifth of September, was the iarg-
est ever got up in New England.
Provisions were provided for 8, 600
guests. The bake was $50 feet by
10 in size. II contained 200 bush els
of CLANS, 400 dozen egg, 1000 lob
sters, 4,500 ears of corn. and 29
buahels of potatoes. In addition
to the bake there were 108 large
g gallon pots of beans, 200 loaves
of brown bread, and Z barrels of
pilot bread. There were barrels
of pickles and other condiments,
with 400 gallons of coffee. The
bake was served on tables, requir.
ing $50 walters. It took ten cords
of wood to make the bake.

OF all the evils prevalent among
young men we know of none more
bllghting in it's effects than to
speak slightingly of the virtue of
women. Nor is there anything
in which men are so thoroughly
mistaken as the low estimate they
form of the integrity of women
not of their mothers and sisters
but of others who, they forget,
are somebody else's mothers and
sisters. AS a rule no person who
surrenders to this debasing habit
is to he trusted with an enter
prise requiring integrity of char
acter. Plain words should be
spoken on this point, for the evil is
q general one. Let our young men
remember that their chief happi-
ness of life depends upon their
utter faith in women. No world
iy wisdom, no misantrophiC phil
osophy, no generalization can
cover or weaken this fundamen-
tai truth. 1t stands like the re-
cord of God itself-far it is moth
ing less than this-and should put
an everlasting seal upon lips that
are wont to speak siightingly of
