 fort to get at ;he straight Of the matter in the three cnEtesled southern states. The evitlenec has been SO conflicting that eoa- fusion is rendered almost yet more confused.
 The result of the whole matter is not easy to foretel Ali adeii. tional developments which come to light more firmly confirm as la the belief that the sound sense of the country will not permit such gross wrong as the counting out of Mr. Tiidpn:
 Concerning the present status of the case the New YvIk San ee marks:
 "The reports of the Senate side are ore-shadowed. The Return ing boards are to be sustained as strong as that of Louisiana was by John Sherman's committee. That of South Carolina may be some wha. milder than the others but Louisiana and Florida wiii take no step backward. Howe and Sargent are to justify all the false counting that has been done and the Republican majority of lhe Senate are expected t0 swul. low this dos, sus ar-coated with the personal explanations of their committee. without the least ob. jection.
 The case to he made up by the House side is pretty well under stood by those who have followed the general testimony. But 1t will be materially strengthened by the repol ts when all he lead. ing points are condensed and con tirmed by irresistible proofs. Or course the majority in the Houss will sustain their committee, a. q great majority of the people a.e likely to do. because the investi. gation has been conducted in a way to attract confidence and sympathy.
 Now, these conflicting reports are more likely to widen the breach than to heal the distract ion. There is real dan ger of disagreement between the two Houses, unless there can be found sufficient number of Senators brave enough to rise above the dema Ids of party, and to stamp ont the COT spiracy m ike Presi- dent upon fraudulent returns. A number of Republican Senators stand professedly uneommitted upon the present issues, which relate to the powers of the presI- dent of the Senate and the ri ghts of the two Houses as to the mode of counting the electoral votes.
 They have uniformly said, Let us wait for the reports of the committees" and in the mean time some of them have express ed liberal views, which will have no binding effect if these reports lead to a change of mind.
 There is little probability that the joint committeee appointed to devise method for the count will finally act until these South m committees have reported. That delay may prove a ssrious ob struc.ion to agreement, especially l if the extreme counsel of Mr.
 Morton should prevail"

CONGRESSIONAL.

By the introduction of an almost unlimited sluice of bills and resolu. tions, and the final passage or def mite disposition of almost none, Con- gross has passed the time away thus far. The elections now being over and all anxiety or -footedness on that score being removed, we may expect both houses to get squarely down to earnest work.
 On the sth inst one of the impor. tant measures of the sesslon, the Army appropriation bill was taken up, and without any great difficulty passed. It has the redeeming fea ture of prohibiting the recruiting of the army beyond twenty five thousand men.
 Senator Beck has introduced bill to authorize the payment of all the custom duties in legal tender notes.

THE COTTON MOTH.

It is well known that the cater. pillar, and perhaps the boil worm also, is the product of the cotton moth. A subscriber of ours asserts that he has found out from expert menting that there is also a large weevil, very destructive to chufas which also has its origin from the moth.
 The subject of devising some means of exterminatidg the moth before it develops into its destruc- tive state has attracted considerable attention. A writer in the Patron of Hnsbandry gives his experience In poisoning the moth with bait of watermelons and muskmelons upon which cobalt had been spread, and thinks that the destruction of the caterpillar and boll-worm may be eficctually evaded by poisoning the iholh before It develops Tito the , worm.
 The plan proposed by this writer, it seems to us is not by near so ex- peditious and effective as that which has been introduced by Messrs. Duke and Patton, of our county. These gentlemen have invented an apparatus which we think will prove n grand success, and be of incalcu. lable value to the farmer. It's sim plicity and cheapness will at once recommend 1t to all. For further particulars we refer to their adver- tisement in this paper

THE ELECTIONS.

The result of the elections on the 9th inst. are truly cheering to the Democracy of the Union- In all parts of the country the Democracy has made gains. No State which went for Tilden for President has been lost, while important States which cast their vote for Hayes have been secured.
 In New York, notwithstanding the quarrel between Tammany and ante TamUany, the result is truly grati- flying. The majorities, although less than those given for MT. Tilden, are far greater than those of 1875.
 In New Jersey Gen. Mcclellan has been elected by a majority of some l2,000. Maryland, Mississip- pi and Virginia have also rolled up handsome majorities for the Dem ocracy. Pennsylvania has broken from the Republican ranks and now takes her stand in the list of Demo- cratic States. Minnesota, Nebraska and Kansas remain Republican. Connecticut and Wisconsin likewise. Massachusetts goes Republican but the loss on the majority given for Hayes is alarming to that party.
 Altogether the elections on the 9th show that the Democracy is still in the ascendancv.
