Tho National Democracy Split
Open

The Washington Sc ..,ssi. the well-paid
organ OF the u ). Senate and the South,
ern IRE eaters. recently came out with q
carefully prep red and able editorial, de.
nouncing the Pierce Administration in
Che fame of the l. National Democracy =
hs first charge again st Pierce is that he
made IN egregious blunder in selecting
his Cabinet. HIS advisers should have
been homogeneous Oh public measures y
Aheras they are like The leaves Ct The
mulberry tree-no Two alike. a part OF
them, by faycring the Pacific Railroad
that mammo.h scheme OF internal lin
provement by the General Government
gave the Democracy an irfeparable
shock, which made even the Washington
Union laint ind fall back.
The next fatal bunder was his inter.
krence in the New York Controversy,
between the Sufis, or Free Soil Demo.
Gratis. and the Hards, or National Demo
Gratis. Pierce fostered the former-those
men "whose wicked Vaccinations had
well nigh destroyed cur beautiful sys-
tenn" And thus another awful blow was
struck q, the Democratic organization.

Locusrs.-We have heard fears occa.
sionaily expressed that from the great
numbers OF thu insect now in this vicinity,
there was danger Of destruction 10 the
vegetation. There need, however, be no
apprehension Of that character. The
species Of tnisiaaec.. cieada sepiendecin, J
now present eat nothing from the time Of
their emerging from tie ground till their
disappearance. Indeed they have no
mouths or means provided for the con.
sumption OF food. their only office above
ground being the propagation of their
species. To some extent they piure the
trees in which they deposit their eggs
With the egg is deposited poison which
is designed to act upon the wood and dis
engage the young at proper period -
The extent to which this is done some
times greatly mutates the tree, but this
IS all that is 10 be feared from them.
They live only about three weeks from
the time of their appearance. All OF
pretty much all the damage they can do
has been already done. and in few DAYS
more no Locusts can be seen until The
young iarsa fall to the ground, which
hey very soon penetrate.
