Newberry Observer says: South Carolina should have a canvass of candidates for Governor before the nominating convention meets— something like Georgia has now be tween Bacon ami Gordon.

The canvass should precede ihe nominations. ocouiotiou of tbeir lives is comprised witliia the area of a few square inches. That they may not be washed o,'c by the rain or shaken off by the w ind, each leaf with its swarming tenants is carefully wrapped in a cotton rag which Ls pinned together with thorns. Indeed, the cactus plants in the season are rather better and more decently clad than the children. They are arranged in hills about two feet apart like corn, and when tiiey are dressed in their white shirts, each leaf by itself, the Held presents u singular appear- nnco. This fs still rendered more striking from tiic fact that the bugs exude from their skins a kind of fine wldte powder, md they themselves and their enveloping rags and the green cactus, and the people who work among them, who, by the way, are mostly women, seem as if thoroughly dusted witli‘flour. BAOGlin AND READY FOR MARKET. AVI:on the insects have reached maturity they are carefully brusiied from the plants into pans and placed in an oven where a gentle roasting does the business for them, and then having lioeii picked over and thus classed into the different grades ac cording to their respective buggy minds, tiiey are bagged and ready for market] When so prepared about 70,000 of them go to the pound. During the last year 40,000 bags of ISO pounds each were shipped from rhiutn Cruz. If you ars to know how many Jhstiuct individuals this amounts to, here it is—130,000,000,000. There is bugs for you. 1 The present selling price is alxnit twenty- four cents! How much is that per cochi- nexli' Cipher it yourself. My arithmetic is but finite. And yet possibly they have among theuMMves kingdoms and proviuci palltioe bounded by a cactus leaf with dis tinctions of buggy rank and Jealousies of buggy pcaco, with emulations and strug glos and loves ami hates and pleasures and disappointments—and all ends by being baked in an oven and ’sold 70,000 for twenty-four cents! I dare say there is an excellent and improving moral to lx irawn somehow from all this. But I wa± never good at extracting morals. The juice of cochineal was formerly much higher than now, being from ninety cents to gl.siO jier pound, and then the business was exceedingly profitable; sc nuch so that all Tcneriffe farmers com menced to cultivate it, even rooting uj their grann vines and Mg trees to plant t he cacUnv“'lj;ih n<T\v eheni'.-,.-, bi,,. o 77777777' erod aniline dyes that are equally good and much cheaper, and in consequence the smutty little bug has to go a bogging, as it were.
