GIBSON COUNTY.
Congressional Pr0babiIiifes-OnIyE Eight
BeIfers I'm the County.

MILAN, August THE candidates for
Congress spoke here last Saturday to large
assembly. 1t is now conceded by all parties
who have taken the time and trouble to look
into the matter that the Hon. Wise A. Cooper,
of Trenton, is the strong man, and will
doubtless receive the nomination on the Sec
ond or third ballot He made heightened,
digniied speech, and gained many new
friends here Saturday.
1t is said that there are eight RUSSELL men
in this county, to-wit: six in Trenton, one in
Humboldt and one here. They say that out
of this number they are going to nominate
two representatives and one senator and
make thorough canvass; and one OF the
Trenton POSSIBILITIES, as 1 am informed, has
had the cheek to say they would carry the
county in November.
The election here on the Sd passed off ex-
tremeIy quiet. There was not single fight
or quarrel during the day. W.

Mr.. Harte seems to have quietly dropped
out of sight during the past couple of years.
This is one of the results of paying such a
man fair salary. So long as Harte had TO
depend upon the immediate proceeds of his
work, 30 long did he turn out fair amount
of mstter-aud it was good matter too. He
is singular chap, is Harte. He gets up
every morning of his life with the best in
tentions in the world as to work, and his
resolution clings to him while he is dressing.
Then he takes up the papers and sits down
to breakfast. Gradually his determination
fades away, and by the time he has turned
off a page or SO OF manuscript, industry
has fled for another twenty.four hours.

More RdueatiopaI statistics.

To the Editors OF the Appeal:
promised TO give you some further sta
tistics showing comparison between Massa-
chusetts and Tennessee of the times before
the former was enriched and the latter I'M
poverished by the war. We will mostly use
round numbers, as they are more easily re-
membered. The table below includes only
the whites in Tennessee, but in Massachusetts
the blacks are included in all the statistics
except in population. We have reduced the
statistics of Massachusetts for 1860 one-third,
which brings every number in proportion to
population with those of Tennessee, and for
1850 seyen-twentieths.

An Enemy OF the Peach.

The latest enemy of the fruit-grower is a
small iavra (caterpillar) that has appeared
in the peaches this season, and from present
appearances, if not prevented from spread
ing, it will have the same effect on the peach
and apricot that the codllng moth has had
on the apple and pear crop. The FIRST ex-
amined had eleven peaches that were in
Tested by this new Ito California peach worm
the second had twenty-six peaches infested
and the third nine. This little pest has been
found in peaches from three counties. 1t
also at: acks the apricot. Specimens taken
from the apricots are the same as those in
testing the peaches, although different from
the small caterpillar that attacked the april
cot early in the spring. Peaches containing
this pest are plentiful in the ma.xets at the
present time, and can be easily detected.
