A New and Destructive Tree worm.

in the extensive belt OF cedars in the
northeast portion Of Maury County, un-
told millions oil kind of worm, encased
selves 10 the cedar rtrees-haDgiHg to the
limbs OF the trees--in many thousands
apparently to the tree. The trees ap-
pear to be thickly covered with these
destructive insects. In sections con-
tanning many hundred acres OF the finest
red cedar in the State--tae timber at
tacked-much of it is already
killed, ana nearly all that the
pests are on appear to be in q dying
condition; grave Tears are expressed by
many that tney will in the future almost
destroy the cedar timber as they niu ii.
ply. They seem to be indigenous to the
cedar, having as yet molested no forest
tree but 1t. The young apples in the
orchards near the affected forest have
been attacked, the fly having apparently
laid the eggs on the bloom or apple.
Thousands OF. little oblong cocoons may
now be seen sticking to the young aI-
pies; within the bali or cocoon is a small
black looking worm. The apples tlat
they have been on are knotty and scar
red and stunted iu growth, and can not
make good apples. The little worm in
his sllken web seems to suck the apple,
as there are now many acres OF timber
that have been, already killed by them.

confer favor by explaining what they
are, EagW.& .EtH FE

Declare Tilden Elected.

New YORK, November 10.
Special to the Register.
The Democrats continue perfectly con-
fident that they have carried South Caro-
lima, Louisiana and Florida and have
elected Tilden. The latest dispatches to
the Democratic National C,mmittee
place the majority for Tilden in
South Carolina at one thousand, in
Florida fifteen hundred and Louisiana
ten thousand. A large number of Demo-
Gratis have gone South to see that the
Republicans commit no frauds in the
count. The city is more excited than
since 1861. The Republicans still stick
to it that Hayes has carried all these
states is and elected by 1856 votes. The
Tribune and Times will claim his cleo
tion tomorrow morning. Tho Herald,
World and Sun will insist that Tilden Is.
Prominent men of both parties have
been in close consultation all day. a
special from Raleigh says that North
Carolina is Democratic by $4,000 ma.
jority. At midnight both sides are
confident. Z. S. LORD, Sun Office.

ILLINOIS.

CHICAGO, November l0.-Gen. John
NJ Corse, a prominent Democrat and
chairman of the First Congressional Dis
trlct Committee, left this city tonight
for Louisiana. Besides the Republican
Congressman gained in Illinois whose
names have been already reported,
Marsh is elected in the Tenth district.
This makes a gain of six Republican
Congressmen and reverses the Congress
sionsl delegation from Illinois. The Re-
pubicans here also claim the election of
Ashcroft over Sparks in the Sixteenth
district.
CAIRO, November 10.-The Official
vote of Alexander county is: Tilden
1880, Hayes 1919; Stewart 278. Cul-
lom l,274; for Congress, Hartzel 1888,
Wiley LOB. Late returns from the
10th Senatorial District confirm the
election of ALBRIGHT, Democrat.
CHICAGO, November l0.-A Tribune
Springfield special says that report was
received there to-day that j. q. Black, de-
feated candidate Tor Congress in the
Vermillon district, died to day. The
following are nearly accurate figures on
the stats election of Illinois. The legis-
lsture is composed o: "a Republicans, %

ocrats in the House; total Demo-
crats and independents, 98i Re-
publicans, LOG. The he>Republicans have

counties of the State give Hayes % 800
majority, gain of $3.50 over the vote
of 1872, when oglesbey had 40,69O ma

What the New York Papers Say.

NEW YORK, November l0.-The Post
this evening editorally says: A special
dispatch from Florida leaves no reason-
able doubt that Hayes has majority IN
that state. These dispatches are confirm
ed by an examination OF dispatch to
the Times giving the first returns by
counties which have been received. The
result in Louisiana is vet to be definitely
ascertsined, but it is reasonable to expect
a Republican majority. 1t seems safe to
take South Carolina from the doubtful
list. The S.n does so in its leading edi-
torial article this morning.
New YORK, November 10.-The Tn
bune saws that the following is the sub
stance OF the late.t news and comments
furnished at the headquarters of the Ma
tlonsl Committee: Information from
Louisiana and Florida shows that the
White Leaguers and hu-klux are max
ing raids on the ballot boxes and can
vassers. This, of course, proves that they
know they have lost these states. Gov.
kellogg and Gov. Stesrns are informed
that leading friends of Mr.. Tilden are on
the wsv to Louisiana and Florida, and
they invite prominent men of national
reputation of both parties to be present.
They ask that the situation and facts be
thoroughly known. They say, we
know we are right, and will stand or fall
by the record
New York, November 10 The
Times repeats the assertion that there is
no room for further doubt of the election
of HAYES. This statement is based on
specials from Florida, South Carolins
and Louisiana.

NEW YORK, November l0.-The
w Western Associated Press agent has re-
ceived the following through thu usual
channels, with the admonitlon that it is
not from the regular source:
CHARLEsToN-This county gives the
Republicans 6,2l4 majority. Nearly all
the counties have been heard from, otfi.
ciallv and unotficially, and give Hamp-
ton, Democrat, for Governor l,2l3 ma
iority. The Democratic ~ Presidential
ticket IA not cut as much as was at
first supposed, and it is not believed
that Tilden will fall moro than 400 or
500 behind Hampton. ItEdoes not ap-
pear possible for the Republicans to over
come the figures above given from the
counties not officially heard from.
New YORK, November l0.-The Post
publishes this special dispatch from Gov.
Chamberlain:
"CoLUMBIA, November l0-South
Carolina is safe for the Republicans. The
Democrats claim the State on the basis OF
heavy reported majorites in three or
four counties where the Republicans have
heretofore had large msjorities. If a
Democratic majority appears on the
face of the returns they are iraudu-
lent and the result of the grossest
terrorism, but concedng Democrats all
they claim in the counties not definitely
heard from, and giving the Republicans
only what we know we have, we have rs
the result small majority for the Re-
publcans. The final honest official result
cannot in our best judgment fall below
5000 Republican majority.

A CAMPAIGN OF CALUMNY.

The Republican party, it Is with sin
eers regret that we present the asser-
ton, has made record for itself in the
campaign now ended to which it can
never refer but with absolute shame
From its leading journal, the New York
Times, and its leading orator, Bob In
gERsoLL, down through the ranks of its
papers and speakers, its tone has uni
formly been one of calumny and scan-
dalous abuse. This unjustitisble temper
WAS intensified IS the canvass progress
ed, until at its close it became too
ribsld even for ridicule. We should
much prefer TO withhold observations
like these after n political struggle is
fairly over, but justice.to to some of the most
distinguished men of the country, and to
more than sn ascertained halt of the
American people, compels the timely
Characterization Of such conduct in the
only language 1t deserves. The Demo
Gratis not only nominated the best and
purest men that were to be found, sup
posing that character would certainly go
for something in the eyes OF their oppo-
nents, but they scrupulously treated the
nominations of those opponents with a
consideration and courtesy that ought of
itself to have taught lesson in regard
TO the temper OF the four months dis
cussion.
From the Republican side, on the con-
trary, there has flowed q steady, un-
broken stream Of slander and personal
vituperation. The same Republican
press that a year ago solicited votes
without regard to party to support Gov.
TILDEN, made indecent haste to set the
fashion of raining abuse on his head,
chasing him as confederate with the
TwEKDs he brought to punishment, as a
deliberate defrsuder of the government
in respect to his income tax, as the secret
and persistent ally of secession and its
wicked schemes, as cowardly and pu-
sillsnimous deserter of his lifelong con-
victions on a sound and stable currency,
rs fraud in his professions of econo-
my in public administration, and as
man who, for the sake of Office, stood
ready to sell his country to gang of
traitors after he had first made 1t a
worthless bargain by destroying that
country's credit. Not only he, but
man of the purity of character that
CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS possesses
could not escape the foul lbels that were
freely uttered by frenzied Republican
press and list of demented Republican
speakers. The cue was given by Bob
INGERsoLL, who styled him in Cooper
Institute an "exhumed cemetery remin-
iscence.,' BLAINE caught up the cry.
and tried TO outdo his riotous rival of
the prairie.
