THE Wool SUPPLY.

The price,efwooRhas, advanced nearly
100 per cent. in the past year. The
cause OF this advance is explained by
Ex-Governor Downey, Of California, in
the Los Angeles Express. He attributes
il to the unprecedented drouth in Aus
tralia, one Of the great sources of wool
supply, whore aocks of ify thousand
were reduced to. two. thousand FIVE hun
drcd, or one-tenth.. Another great
source of supply, the Argentine Re-
public, suffered from disastrous foods
which destroyed millions Of sheep.
The Cape of Good Hope, which was
also great wool source, has suffered
from the Zuln wars. and, the drouth in
California in 1877 killed off half the
fiocks in that State. The Russo. Turk
ish war destroyed another great source
of wool supply, so that the wool is not
in the world to supply the demand.
Governor Downey predicts, that it will
take at least five years to re-establish
the relations between demand and sup
ply in the wool market, and thinks it
problematic if this relation will again
exist in this generation.

Dispatches from Washington state
that the Democratic members of the
Senate Committee ON Rules and of the
Senate Select Committee on Counting
the electoral Vote, ct private meet
ing substantially decided to recommend
Congress TO adopt joint rule provid.
ing that in case only one certificate Of
State be presented to Congress, il
shall Dot be rejected, except by the
Affirmative vote Of the two Houses; and
in case Of dual returns, neither shall
be counted, unless the two Houses
agree that one of them is the true and
valid retawn- This proposed rule is
substantially the same as was offered by
the late Senator Norton in the Forty.
fourth Congress and adopted by the
Senate. The old Twenty second Joint
Rule, by which Congress was governed
when counting the electoral vote before
the Eight to Seven Commission was
appointed, required every electoral vote
b be rejected to which any objection
was sustained by either House.
Now, it is probable that the proposed
Joint rule will be objected to by the
Republicans in the; two Houses, as it,
will give the Democrats, who now have
q majority in the two Houses, advan-
tages in counting the electoral vote. as
would also the old Twenty Joint
Rule, which was annulled by Congress.
The same may be said of the Law re-
lating to the appointments Of Deputy
United States Marshals to. keep the
peace at elections. This law author
ICES United States Marshal to appoint
any number Of deputies at ten dollars a
day, for as many days as he. may deem
necessary at the time Of an election for
Members Of Congress. That this au-
thority has been abused, there is no
question: as in many instances shoulder
hitters and strikers have been appoint
ed Special Marshals, with discretionary
authority I'd make arrests on election
Gays. As these; Special Marshals are
appointed in, the interest of the party
in power, il. gives THAI party undae ad-
wantages. Ii the Administration should
be Democratic. the Republicans would
be as much opposed to the Act which.
authorizes the appointments of these
Marshals as the Democrats are now,
and no reasonable person wonld dispute
the justice Of such opposition. The
Government was organized for, and
should be conducted for the benefit Of
the people, not to perpetuate the power
Of party; and Legislation designed for.
partisan purposes should be discoun-
tenanced, by every good citizen. The
bill now before Congress limiting the
number of Deputy Marshals in every
election precinct to three, and provid-
ing that they shall be men of good
character and of different politics,
seems inst and reasonable, and it ought
to become law, as it gives no party
unfair advantages ON, election days,

The Army Worm.

The army worm comes from buff. colored
moth having conspicuous white speck about
the middle of each of the front wings This
moth haunts ourlfelds from the middle of June
till winter. Those which issue early in the sea
son probably lay their eggs In fall while those
which issue later hibernate and lay their eggs
in spring. The eggs are most probably laid on
mature grass and grain stalks, whether cut and
in stack or standing. They are either inserted be-
tween the stalks and sheath, or attached In rows
along the stalk. The worms when not excessive
ly numerous hide during the day and are seldom
noticed. In years of great abundance they are
also generally unnoticed during their early life.
The earliest acquire full growth and commence
to travel in armies and to devastate our fields
and attract attention about the time that winter
wheat is in the milk. They soon afterwards
descend into the ground, and thus suddenly dis.
appear, to issue again two or three weeks later
as moths. The bulk of the worms become
moths In this latitude the same season, but a
few probably hibernate in the pupa state below
ground, and the proportion of these increases as
we go north. There is but one generation an.
nually The worms abound during wet spring,
preceded by one or more very dry years. They
are preyed upon by numerous enemies, which
so effectually check their increase during years
of great multiplication that two great army
worm years have never followed each other, and
are not likely to do so. They may be prevented
from invading field by judicious ditching, and
burning over field in winter or early spring
effectualy prevents their Matching in such fields.

Great Rejoicing Is felt over the disappearance OF
this pest. The latter part OF last week remarls-
abIe decrease IN the number of worms was observ-
ed, and now very few can be seem Large numbers
of them are found dead In the wheat-fields, and
those In the trenches and pits have died without
theuseof the Ordinary means to kill them. Unless
another army appears, we feel that the army
worm is conquered in our vicinity. Weread with
peculiar interest the accounts of the ravages and
war going on in New Jersey and Pennsylvania
and we urge our northern friends to dig trenches
and fight them all along the line.

the Democratic column to 1852 Connecticut

The Cincinnati Convention.

The Democratic National Convention will
meet in Cincinnati, on Wednesday next, June
23d. While its proceedings are awaited with
great interest, it is expected that the conven-
ton will be harmonious There will be no
repetition of the scenes at Chicago, for the
reason that the Democratic party has no can
didates who arc determined to be nominated
at all hazards. The entire matter is left in
the hands of the delegates, and their consti-
tuents have resolved in advance to abide by
the result and give an enthusiastic support to
the Presidential candidate, whether it be
Bayard, Tilden, Judge Field, Jewett Han
cock, Thurman or any other of the can
didates less prominently mentioned for the
place.
The convention will be composed of G3s
delegates, and as it requires two thirds vote
to secure the nomination, it follows that the
successful candidate must receive the votes of
492 delegates
Fortunately the list of good and available
candidates is so large that 1t will not be easy
for the convention to make mistake. None
of the candidates we have named are be-
smirched with the Credit Mobilier, paving
contracts or the salary grab, and any one of
them would make n good President. 1t is
conceded by the Republicans that the nomi-
nation of Garfield and Arthur has ensured
the entire vote of the Southern States to the
Democratic nominee, whoever he may be-
These States, with Maryland and Delaware,
cast 1873 electoral votes. 1t will require 1856
votes to elect. Therefore the Democrats must

States. Indiana and New jersey may both be

He heeds not the storm of factions vile wrath,
But follows where duty points out the path.
True to the State, to his principles true,
The rights of the people he keeps in his view,

They do not strike him, but the source of his
power,
Corruption and faction, and all In their train
Can hurl their barbed arrows-ther efforts are
