It must be confessed that on our coa-st at least the present seasuu baa not boea such, on tho wholo, as to have warranted, as in for? mer times, tho pros o noe Of tho cotton worms to any visible extent. Yet they aro upon ?Je. i Their recurrence, however, is Lono the Iona assignable to some producing cruise or new combination of circumstances, Which lt may bc of the highest importance to know. The presence of the worm to however great an extent one year by no means involve* tb-? oocesBlty of their coming tho next. Nay, In old times just the contrary waa held. Th< y swept everything b3fore them in IBM, 1825 and 1846; yet not one waa to be seen or hoard of in 1806, 182?, or 1847; nor after 1816 was any ap? preciable injury suffered from these Insects, save in o&e or two local ina toncos, until af toi 1881 at least, and, I think, after 1802-a spsx-o Of llftoeu or sixteen years. Tlieeo broad;facta must' be fairly kopi in view. * ,1 Sm : t . . : Tho questions-?Lieh have excited inquiry in concoction with this subject, fe known to 'mo, are aa'follows: - *. . ? **> ? 1st.

Baa the continuous planting over of the cotton fields in cotudo promoted or Induced . the worm? -, Tpropose to answer these concisely.. They- do hibernate with us. A genuine moth was taken last January by Mr. Ashe Seabrook, an intelligent and observant young gontlemao, who could not possibly be deceived by the genuineness of the moth*. The insect was bad? ly injured by the cold, and though carefully provided for, died aoon after being taken. Mr. Seabrook reporta having seen several after? wards. Mr.-Ephraim Seabrook, Jr., reportas1 also baviug Been the genuin 0 worm, with which he waa perfectly conversant, eating tho young cotton in the latter part of April, 1868.- So. too, were they seen early thia spring on James' Island, SB rc ported, m THU ft BWS. Tho cocoon of this moth does .undoubtedly burrow in the earth. I saw several ploughed out of tbe earth about the lat April, 1868; took them up and foond them active, and pronounc? ed them unquestionably the cocoon of the cot? ton caterpillar. So did my foreman, a smart, > observant and experienced man of his color. Planters around me reported ibo same thing. This spring tho cocoons were ploughed up by thousands. Ibis cocoon is as well known and as distinguishable by certain peculiarities both j of motion and otherwise aa tbs worm or moth, in which no experienced observer can be mistaken, It is idle any longer to entertain doubt on thia subject. - As to the supposed destruction of the birds. This ls simply a question of fact. There has been no such destrnction. ' Tho coast swarms with birds of all kinda, heneo thia point ia dis-; missed as fatally defectivo aa to fact. The absenoe of domeatio -an?mala I thought at one time bad mach to do with the subject. Upon reflection I think other wiso. Finit, for tbe reason that we have no pastures, but plant our clearer lands over. Furthermore, both in Texas and Florida, whore, these animais still abonni)-, the worms aro BB bad, if not worse than anywhere ebie; So too do they prevail in other BOCIions without diminution, whero the' "stock" hie beep pioservod.

Cotton, sickened with water or from any other cause, is th? last to-be attacked bj ibo worm. I Again, the cultivation which we admit to have been good in '46 and Via. did not pro vont their coming early and. in countless hordes.' Nor do we Abd bl?ttern work in certain seo tione, or on certain plantations, oonducivo to the pr?sence ortho, woim there, beyond other places, far or near.

Tho worroB carno oariier in 1840, when tho manaring system waa folly practiced, and ate moro voraciously than thoy did in 1825 when tli at ays tem was not generally introduced. ' Nor in tanner times could any peculiar su? periority be* aasig ned to well manurod crops over those wblob were otherwlae. Tho worm always appears drat on tho best grown or "rauhest" cotton. 'They always appear first on Edisto and' adjoining islands, then. St. Helena Parish, then St. Luke's. It was well known that the Edistonians were tho best man? urers in the State. Nor yet should wo conclude from this that the worm waa produced fey the manuring. Facts af to-Day contravene this idea. Tho truth is, wherever the growth was fine, wheth? er from strong land or high fertilization, the I same thing occurred, lt waa the inviting food which attracted Ute insect, just os good pas-' tures do the ?ra ?lng herds. I aball now consider the planting over of our cotton fields in cotton continuously. Here, perhaps, is the gravamen of tho diffi? culty, combined possibly with 'other circum? stances peculiar to the present timos. Ho far aa our coast is ooDoerned. thore ia tbls strik? ing coincidence: That with tho general and continuous planting over-grown cotton fields for the first time practiced, comes, for tbe first time, in tho culture of tbs plant with ni, tho annual recurrence of the worm. This is a broad fact to bo dealt with. Now, it is true that "before tho war" there were por? tions of fields planted over sometimes; but these were small and exceptional iuBtances, and nut enonsrh to weigh against any conclu? sion to be derived in thia oonoeotion. Tbis planting over may be just euob a depar? ture, although not enough in i ts- lr to causo the recurrence, yet sufficient, with new con? comitants, to effect the samo. Winters mild? er, on tho whole, than formerly, tho singular exemption for tbo last aoven years from fall equinoctial gales,' the cold and unpropitious springs, -the - late preparation of the landa these, among others, may: be, and .1. think are, tbe combining ciroumatanoes to which wo I owe the aunual coming of the (vorm. I But the main cause I Beti, I think, in con? tinuons planting aver or (ho Mino ile'ds in cot? ton. Let us soe. .Qt. Helena .Parish and Hil? ton Hoad...involving" something like . thirty thousand acrea or less of open land, add plant? ed over during the war without intermission, and tho worm, eave perhaps the your 1862, came regularly as tho year rolled round with? out'fall. ' The result is, theso islands became caterpillar neals 1 from which they were dia ' tributed upon us as soon as wo returned after tho war to the cultivation of tho plant on con? tiguous shores. How is ibis sustained? In 1866, the first year we began ia St. Luke's, and goncrally tho starting of eoa islands, after tho war; whilst Ht. Luke's, noxt to Hilton Hoad and st. Helena Pariah, waa-eaten out and much injured by the worm, the plantationa of Christ Church, James' Island, andall around Charles? ton, were unhurt. Bo, too, was Florida. Both of these sooiions made uno crops. Florida one of tho best ever made in tbe Htate. How do wo account for1 tins ? Formerly tho worm appeared in Florida weeks and weeks be? fore they did with us; we sometimes, it not of tonj.eecaplnn 'altogether. Jost so, too, with Edisto.aod all north of us, while the wotm in? variably appeared betor? they did in St. Luke's. Tbis was tho case for m oro than a half con? ti iry. . t ? In I860 the wuim swarmed, the fields or ;bt. Helena Pariah^and Hilton Hoad lung before they appeared . in. our .'^reconstructed" fields. Tho conclusion ebemB Irresistible that the moths flew from tho termer fields on ours and deposited tbeir; eggs by mstiuot, where the worm, when .hatched, ..would.git food, or the mo ilia sought tho fresh blooms in our Saids, those of tho former1 bavin g boen destroyed; .' . Bo thia aa it mayt thus began the difficulty Which we, as well aa tba neAro and Yankee hi? landera, ha79 contributed to foster by planting over and over the samo fields, more or less, in cotton. '">>'" Now, with this mild fringe of seacoast plant? ed over from year Ao pear -ste-have estabbahed, without the assistance of thp .Patent Office, or "Deportment,'' ? great gardon for propagating the cotton worm, wbiob, having boen distribu? ted by ca re ru 1 means along the coast from year to year, ia ready to supply the interior, from "Sleepy-Hollow'! to Bpartauburg. They begin with ns, and go up on tho wing aa their nee ess i ti es may ' require and the prevailing winds admit. Now, it may be said that tho same preva lonee of the worm exiats in other soot ion s aa well aa oars-the Golf States and others, for instance, where the same method ot planting Is practiced as formerly. Whilst we admit tho force of the Huggestio', wo reply, tho worm always formerly prevailed more with them than with us. It may he that our old system of alternate fields and pastures, coupled with our going into the flolds earlier in the season than we do now, may. have gi von us that very comparative exemption then en? joyed, and now'lost. Again, if the Golf sections and other upland regio js peculiarly subioct to worms have nude any alteration in the time of breaking up their la?ds, or in the thoroughness thereof, this may be the fatal variation with tuarn, in com? bination with other things. L;t me bo understood. ; suppose Ino cocoon lo be preso ut in tho soi), as conclusively shown above. Whon we go into the field? late in .the aoason these chrysaloids or cocoons are turner] ont, or set f/ee from the beds in which thet Save been packed, bolaro thoy otherwise would aveoscaped but for thia wifloial mechanical assistance, and thoa- .being better able tc weather it out than thro a gb mid winter, and fooling the genial days of coming springt-thc moth ls batched earlier than any one has beqo accustomed to'thihk.

A striking and important difference exists in our entire oxomption from equinoctial galea since tho fall of 1661 Tho havoc tbat was made of the worm aa weU aa crop, of 1601 waa known and long remembered. Wo find a record of thia by Mr. "Spaulding, of Qebrgii. Tbe late sprinis 1 deem by no moana otherwise than conducive to the worm. Thia some? what from analogy, We all koputhat ih?so cold springs almost invariably axe coincident with the cul worm and "leaf and root bug" i ofes tin g tho cotton. And again, tho plant is kept back in growth, and by that in nearing bloome and reaching that maturity incident to miro genial weaiber. Honco, when the worm first comes (before it is seen, perhaps,) the plant is lust beginning to grow, and the sec? ond or third brood (called by us the first, be causo Iho first actually aeon, ) tinda the cotton, instead of baviug ripe and tough leaves, lust in the condition to food the young' worm into destruotivo swarms, aoooraing to tbAoltarao'er of the weather prevailing at the time.

Ber proBS bas called tho attention of her cap* italieta, tbe citizens and the corporation to the great advantages of this road, and carnoatly fu caen tod the Btiong reasons for its con H true ion. Some of her leading; citizens havo at? tended meetings of tbe friends of the road to advance its interests, and beoimo acquainted with the obstacles and tho encouragements to its success.

Har lan is spread wide to catch overy drop of benent that migbt fall io that neighborhood; but, then, ario has not pat her hand to her purse to '.contribute" of ber means, nor her shoulder to the wheel to push the work along since tho war. We would, of course, prefer that our own commercial oily should get the tm do which thu road may bring to any of tho great marts, but if Hbo, by ho . inaction, or ber wodding her aol f to tho ono idea of tho Blue Ridge, sof? ters it to go elsewhere, we can onlv do as she has done towards this sootion of country look oo, and wonder, and (fish somo good tbing may turn np for her without any effort on our part to bring it about. Charleston ought to have beoome tho purchaser of tho Dtock that wu" j sold, i net jori of Mr. Bridgen, and then ?bo would have bad the sam? power to "control the road" that is now attributed to Baltimore. Tho sale of this stock will place tho board in funds to po on with their work; and that was tho great objoatHhoy bid in view.
