Another Crop DESTROYER.

The Baltimore American says: Benz,
M. Gill, jr., residing at Murray's Farm,
baltimore county, sends US q lively
specimen of the worms that are now
playing havoc in the rye and wheat
fields in some parts of the country. Al
though this. particular worm was
brought up by mail from Woodensburg,
and was tossed about in tue usual way
in the distribution OF letters at the Post
office and in the American, it was in ex-
cellent health and spirits when taken
from the envelope, and forthwith began
to crawl over the editorial desk with re-
markabfe activity. We never saw
worm of this size that showed so much
activity.
In general appearance 1t resembles
young caterpillar, bat il is far more agile.
Mr.. Gill also sends specimen rye-heads
in which this voracious pest has been
practiciBg his destructive arts. The soft
grains are followed out, leaving nothing
but the shell and the chaff. The worm
is about one ana one.f0urth inches in
length. Concerning the raSages OF this
pest Mr.. Gill writes,
In some rye.felds the heads are al.
most void of grains, aud the ground lit
orally covered with chat. Late-spwed
rye would not be worth harvesting were
it not for the straw. The eariy.sowed
rye Is also seriously damaged. The
wheat crop tn this section has also suf-
fered slightly.
The grasshoppers are beginning TO be
very numerous, but do not as yet appear
to BIZ doing any harm, except to the corn
and bean crop, and that as yet not to
very great extent.

Eaglish Participation in the Centennial.

In the matter of machinery and the
arts it is probable the English will be
very liberal contributors to the Cehten.
nial Exhibition. Our patent law gives
full protection for anything new, and
they will place their products before an
English-speaking people, who are ex-
ceptionally accustomed to the adoption
ofnew habits, new tools, new inventions.
Fer these reasons strong representa-
tions have been made by English tech.
meal journals to induce a very full ex-
hibiti0n of manufactures from that
country, and with the result that for the
46, 900 square feet in the Industrial Ii all
allotted to Great Britain and her colo
MES, the mother country alone has made
applications covering 10000 square feet,
and Canada alone wants 80, 900 more.
This is double the original allowance.
In addition to this the carpet industries
have asked for q, 900 square feet of hang
ing Hooin. The tact that the English are
SO eager to be we'll represented in our
exhibition is OF itself enough to give.
our Centennial success, SO tar as Amer
leans are concerned. The English will
come here with the avowed intention to
show Us how much better their manu-
features are than ours, aud how much
lower they are sold. This was precisely
the condition of things at the first Of
these great exhibitions, that OF London
in 1851. There the English were for the
first time made aware OF the fact that in
artistic work Of nearly every kind the
French were by far their superiors, and
the result of the competition thereby in
stituted has beer not mere improve
ment in the quality and variety OIL work
done in English workshops, but grand
educational movement, designed to Lift
the whole English laboring class to q
higher plane OF lite. 1t was evident that
there could be no competition with such
rivals unless new system and grade OF
training the workmen was adopted, and
this is the thing which for twenty years
has been the handspring Of English ed
ucational thought and effort. II we, on
comparison with our foreign c0mpeti-
tors, find ourselves driven to better
training and finer work in the aesthetic
arts, and if the result is half as great as
the result in the ssWorld's Fair'' of 1851
has been upon the English, our Centen-
nial will deserve to rank as one OF the
most important events that can possibly
befall us in the second century OF our
istory.-"Scientitic Miscellany" in The

POSTP ON-EMENT OF TIE CENTEN-
NAL.

Hon. John Jay, late Minister to Aus
tria, has recently come forward with a
proposition to postpone our Centennial
Exposition until 1877, ON the grounds
that there are some countries that re-
fuse to take part in 1875, and that there
are some specialties which would be
Of great advantage which have not yet
been announced or provided for. Mr..
Jay was Minister to Austria during the
time of the Vienna Exposition, and as
the affair was especially under his no.
tice and subject of much thought by
him during its whole course. his opinion
10 entitled to at least a respectful hear
ing. One of his particular reasons for
postponement is that Russia and Austria
and some other countries are not to take
part in 1876, but might be persuaded to
DO SO a year later.
He says, and very properly, too, that
'dt shdhid be universal Exposition and
not one in which such countries as Rus
sia and Austria would be conspicuous by
their absence.n Another argument, and
Dne well worthy Of thought, is that GER
tain popular features introduced by one,
or two countries at the Vienna EXPOSE

Mr.. Welsh Is beginning TO find that open
letters are things to receive as well as to
send. Gen. NettIeton, late an employe of
the Northern Pacific Railroad Company, has
addressed one to him, which shows TO the
public very plainly that if there was one
public officer more influential than another
in the sale of the bonds OF that company that
officer was Indian Commissioner Welsh. In
deed, Gen. NettletOn states that Mr.. Welshs
commendation of the enterprise was, with
his own Knowledge, extensively printed and
circulated by the agents OF the company as
document expressly calculated TO promote
the sale of the bonds; and he does not hest
tate TO express the opinion that this warm
commentator, thus published and circu-
lated, actually sold more OF the bonds in
question than any influence, corrupt or
otherwise, that emanated from the Depart
ment OF the Interior.
AS General NettletOn was an agent of the
company for the sale of it's bonds he doubt
less knows whereof he speaks, and his state
ments in the premises must be regarded as
conclusive. 1t need not be added that Ii puts
Mr.. Welsh In very unenviable position,
and that what he may say upon the subject
of frauds and bad faith hereafter must neces-
sarily be very much weakened in conse-
quence. At any rate, IL there was anything
wrong in the sale OF the bonds referred to- as
Mr.. Welsh now insinuates that there was il
