Tie Army Worm. The Grenada (Miss}
Press says" This scourge OF the planter, ii Is
feared is about to blight the prospects of the pres
ent cotton crop, if not entirely destroy it, We
have heard Of their appearance in various portions
OF the country, and regret to learn that they have
commenced upon the cotton. We were yesterday
July 26) shown some taken from "a fiellssix miles
east of: Grenada of various sizes from one 10 one
and half inches in length" S' ;, s - 1'


The Fayeue (Mi-s. WATCH Tower. says
'' We are informed that the worm is|doing con.
siderable damage TO the cotton crops in sonic parts
of This county. 1t is thought, however, that it is
not the army worm but 4 species Of cut-worm re-


srmbling the caterpillar" s''.-i - S1'1-3 '. .-'5
The Yaz.o City Wing says 1--WE hear al


most daily complaints from our planters, in rG.
gard 10 the appearance. Of the cotton worm. & On
some of the plantations in the lower part of this
county, understand that these worms hs We at
tackled the cotton with great energy, whilst on
other places they are working ohithe grass p We
also learn that the worms have made their ap-i
pearance on Silver creek, ,.Issaquena county
Should these, worms make general and vigorous
attack upon the cotton at the present ime twill
prove rninous to the planters. We sincerely hope
that the accounts which wei have heard may. be
exaggerated" - 80: a-ir1-F@a - 10 ea"2 .


The Natchez Courier says SO From every
quarter of the compass we hear Of the appearance
of the worm, and of the alarm occasioned thereby


But, in most Instances, after the matter is nvesli
gated: the alarm and misc hief occasioned and done
is found to havefbeen all occasioned by the grass
worm, which, it is true, has been somewhat de-
structive! We have conversed7 with old and cx
perienced planters on 1.-The subject, not longer ago
than yesterday, and We 6nd that no one of them
