ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS q n'e """i 'ueu W
q gentleman just arrived from Arkansas, that
about the middle Of May the locusts appeared in
that country in immense numbers. They evil
IDENTIFY came I'D from the earth in the form Of
Kind of grub, enclosed in a she'll. This grub
would attach itself. at evening, to the bark of a
tree. and in the morning the locust would be
found perched on this she'll, having burst through
its case during the night. At this time, its
wings we're imperfectly developed, but after two
or three hours, when they bad obtained their full
size, the locust flew away, leaving the shell at.
tached to the tree. The number Of the animals
was so prodisious, that their NOISE in the woods
was incessant and almost deaiening. An extra
ordinary circumstance was, that every one OF
these myriads had an N distinctly marked on
each wing. The people of the country interpre-
ted this to mean modification. After making a
great noise, for six weeks, the ocusts have entire.
IL disappeared and buried themselves in the earth,
NOT to appear again fora long period. Such
ws hone is the case with the cause which the wri-
ting on the wing is imagined by the good people
of Arkansas to typify, with the exception that
it will never make its appearance again
