There are two winds at Charleston--one bringing
pest, and the other carrying taway. The easter
ly wind brings swarms of little mosquitoes, which
are said to bite without singing; and the south
ern breeze sweeps these little unrnusical blood
suckers away. The visitors at Sullivan's leland,
few nights SINCE were dreadfully incommoded by
sudden incursion of these insects borne upon the
eastern breeze. and then we're as suddenly relieved
