countaleady has two organizations of the
kind one' fit COvington and one in Charles
ton and it wasnecessary if another was to
be formed that prompt action be taken in the
atter. : About twenty-five men offered
emselves as members of the proposed:new
company, and a committee was appointed to
look up recruits. We understand the pros
pect of rapidly running the roll up to , ono
hundred names is very fair. The provisions
of the present malitia law are most liberal,
and we see no reason why a large and'efil
cleat company can not be organized and
maintained here in a state of creditable 'dis

martial spirit for the purpose if it is properly
directed. Any man feeling an interest in
the subject can learn more of it by inquir

ELKLA4D ITEMS.—Elkland has two

blacksmith hops, two wagon shops, a steam

mill and tw hotels.
—The C wanesque Valley Railroad is
graded to this place with the exception of
one or two short cuts. Five miles' of track
are laid, and the depot and freight house are
completed and ready for business as soon as
the road is in running order which, it is be
lieved, will be in July next.
—The boro authorities aro widening the
streets, and in many cases the opetation
leaves the front yards so narrow that a lawn
mower cannot be conveniently used. . :
—The corporation officials have given prop
erty holders a very polite invitation to build
sidewalks in front of their lots by a certain
day not far distant. If they aro not built by
do day fixed, the corporation is to build them
at the expense of the owners of lots with 20
per cont. added to the cost. This has the ef
fect to make some at least very energetic,
while some think the officials assume too
much authority, and Would like to live just
outside the corporation limits.
—Like most country villages, Elkland is
occasionally blessed with a circus, a gipsey
.wagon, a fanning-mill peddler, a seWing ma
chine agent, &c. At present it has It life ih
t'
suranee agent in the person of lifarVin an

Life Insurance Company. The inves ent
of money in life insurance furnishes a sure
piptection for a family in case of the death
et its head. DIXIE.
A: DRS:At/AU VISITOR.—We have an im
porthnt but most unwelcome arrival to an
-110111300. Tho famous Colorado Potato Bug
has made its appearance in this village, and
we hear that the same "varmint" has been
seen in other parts of the county. Yesterday
morning Rev. N. L. Reynolds • brought to
our office a piece of potato top with ono of
the creatures busily engaged in depositing
eggs upon it. The specimen shown us was
somewhat like an enlarged melon bug. It
wok nearly half an inch in length and about
half that breadth. The back had a hard, hor
ny shell covering of a very pale chocolate
color striped with black lines running longi
tudinally. Underneath, the body was a red
dish brown color, the head being nearly of
the samo - hue spotted With black. The erea..
tare deposits it eggs, which are dl a bright
orange color, on the under side of the potato
leaf, standing them close together on end and
quite firmly glued
.to the leaf. Tho egg
is about a sixteenth of an inch in length,
rather slim, and seems to be covered with
some glutinous substance, causing them to
adhere to anything touching them. The
bug brought us deposited thirty-six of these
eggs on one leaf; about one-half of that num
ber being deposited within thirty minutes
after.it was dispovered.
The gentlerriart who brought us this speci
men informs us that the creature is one of
the genuine Colorado Potato Bugs, he. haV
ing seen them in their native home at the far
west. lie says the eggs will hatch out in a
few days and bring fortka small grub larger
at ono end than the other. This little pest
will thrive finely upon the leaf of the doomed
potato, and finally, after reaching the estate
of mature grubhood, it will enter the ground
whence it will, in due time, emerge a full
fledged, six-legged, striped-backed Potato
Bug fully prepared to increase, multiply and
devastate the earth, so far as man's favorite
tuber is concerned.
The only known remedy for the evil that thus
threatens the potato crop la the actual sweeping of
theibugs and,ieggs trom the vino by hand, and their
destruction by fire. In many places at the West bat
season men. women and children were obliged to
turn out twice each day to fight the pest which thro at
oned the complete annihilation of the family potato
patch. It Is hardly necessary to commend our dread
ed visitor to the prompt and interested attention of
every Romer and gardener in this region.
THE SECOND WEEK OV COVRT.—Court

ring the whole week. We print below min

Lars—the pile° - of the Gazette 'for' one Year
with the privilege of subscribing again—and
found that the sum amounted to twenty-six
dollars. By the time I had made-this-little
calculationthe party had arrived •in front of
my sanctum. They then halted long enuogh
to.apell theinscription od my sign, and hav;-
ihapected it , txs - iheir ' satisfaction, 'they
came up stairs in single file. *hen they
came through my office they took their head
gear off and folding up their arms awaited
the motions of the meanest looking chap in
the whole gang. He stepped forward and,
ducking his head, inquired with a half-idiot
ic air if -th,e,,Editor of the Copp Hollow Ga
detii Was in. - I informed him that I was that'
distinguished individual. "Then," said ho,
"to proceed to business we . understand you
desire to take some one into partnership with
'you:.; I nodded
some
head as Harry Graves
used to wheesome one asked him to play Old
Grimes on his toot horn. "Wo are all at
your service, Mr. Editor," said the spokes
man, "please select one of us." I looked
them all over about as a sick man will in
spect a box of pills. One was so confounded
hoinely that no one would ever think of
coming into the office the second time if he
was to be there.. Another had his head fast
ened 'on just above the top of his legs. The
'third one that dreiv my attention was a "lit
tle, leaehatchet face with his dyes on 'the top
Or his head" Who acted as though he hadn't
bad a good square meal in a long time. Fi
nally I selected a cross-eyed specimen of hu
manity who was obliged to, walk with a cane
in e i bilSequence of his legs not being of 'equal
length. I dismissed the others and hastened
to examine,nlY partner. I asked him how
much capital' ho had. "Two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars," he said, by way of a
reply. I told him to show it to me. He took
several packages of crisp looking bank notes
out of his pocket and laid them on the table.
How can I describe' 'to you what transpired
during the next thirty minutes? .His money
was all in Confederate scrip I I thought I
could improve his personal appearance, so I
went at him with a club and hammered him
until I was tired, and then wound up my ex_
ercise by scalping him ala Captain Jack, I
aM so affected to think of -this matter that I
can't write any more now. Gloomily yours,
JOHN Woon,
Copp Hollow, Juno 4th, 1873., .
