Farewell to tae Potato Bug.


The Colorado potato beetle, or
potato bug, as we generally call it,
has at last found it's match in the
shape of % mite parasite. Prof.
Riley, at meeting of the St. Louis
Academy of Science, exhibited
potato bug which was SO completely
covered with mite parasite that
the point OF needle could not be
placed on any part Of the beetles
body without touching one OF the
parasites. He estimated the number
of mites at 500. The bug had been
attacked by these enemies and killed
The potato bug seems to have a
number of natural enemies. such as
the toad the crow, the rose-breasted
grossbeak and domestic fowls. There
are no less than twenty-three insect
enemies that attack and kill it. The
bug has also been migrating east
ward across the continent for several
years, until it has now reached the
Atlantic ocean. We hope it may
find watery grave. and let the
waves sing its requiem. = Rocky

A Plan Of c,ErrcH:Se.

1t is reported from Washing
ton that six members Of the Senate
committee to consider the matter OF
counting the Presidential votes have
agreed upon a compromise plan Tor
performing this duty. These oena
tors are reported to be on the Re
publican side--Senators Frelinghuy
SEN Edmunds and Conkling; and
on the Democratic side---Senators
Thurman, Bayard and Ransom.
They are certainly Senators who
are entitled to high respect. Sena-
tor Morton, of the committee, does
not agree to the plan. The basis Of
a agreement is said to be as follows:
N That the President of the SEN
ate is not coDstitutionally vested
with the absolute power for count
ing the votes; (2) that the count
shall be made in the hall of the
House Of Representatives because
of long established practice; (3)
that the vote of no State shall be
rejected without the concurrent as
sent of The two Houses Of Congress :;
and (4) that, if the two Houses shall
not be able to agree III case OF an
objection TO the counting Of any
State, then the dispute shall be re-
fcrred to arbitration outside Of Con
gress. The tribunal for arbitration
will probably be the Supreme Court
of the United States. 1t will be
noticed that this plan requires mutu-
al concessions from both parties.
This plan is supposed TO be in ac-
cordauce with the views of Senator
Booth, AS indicated in his recent
speech Eliminating from SO high n
sourch, it should at least receive re.
spccttul consideration. Every per
sou should desire u solution of this
| Presidential question, that shall be
fair and just, and shall prove salts.
factory to the people Of The country,
and be quietly acquiesced in by them.
War is a thing not to be thought of
seriously IN this connection. There
must be craftsmanship and patriot
ism enough left in the country to
effect settlement of the question
without resort TO arms. This task
| will be an easy one, If demauogues
will cease from their Efforts 10 excite
and inhame the public mind by furi-
Gus war speeches, and by an effort
TO show that all the leading Rcpub

The Cincinnati Enquirer publishes
General Grants modest letter OF
May oath, 1861, in which he zen
dered his services to the govern
ment, "until the close of the wnr in
such capacity as may be offered, >
and is moved TO remark that it is
impossible to look upon a public
career so eminent without admlra-
ton. The organ of the Ohio De-
mocracy admires President Grant.
Why? 1t has found an opportunity
for him. 1t wants him to keep his
hands off of the White Leagners in
Louisiana. Hence, it finds it impos
slblc not to admire.
