The Tien Sin correspondent of the
London Times gives the following picture
of Chinese gastronomy:
1.-The crowds of Chinese thinned off as
the distance from the city increased, and
those who were present divided their atten-
ton between curiosity to see the barbara
ans. and catching locusts for the next day $
meal During the last fortnight all Ten
Sin have been eating locusts in a roasted
State; itinerant veRlcrs shout ''Locusts,
fine fresh locusts." all day long; every bird
{and sparrows are as impertinent here as
eIsewhere) may be seen with locust in
his mouth. Gun boats report acres o.
drownded locusts having been seen float
ing in the river. yet there is no dimunitior
of them. anil with all this prodigiouS mum

off the province of China, the natives dc
not complain as if it was an unusual visi

4 late letter from Cedar City, Utah,
contains the following singular piece of in
telligence:
A new trade is springing mp between
the Utes and the Pides Indians-that oil
selling and buying squaws. AtHarmony,
some forty miles from Washington, the
fiede Abram, having squaw who signi-
fled her wish to have younger husband
marched her before the muzzle of his rife
to Cedar, where the Utes were quartered
having come here for the purpose of buv-
ing squavs for the United States troops
and sold her to them; so she had fair
prospect of having her desires more than
gratified. 1t is understood that agent q
Hurt is encouraging this trade. A few
days since noise Of crying was heard in
the streets; went out and saw an In
dian dragging along his squaw, she was
bowling bitterly. Upon asking what wa,
the cause he replied. Knots ashinti mi
she don't want me, having also concciv
ed desire for another husband, and prob
ably she may be likewise accommodated
There are soldiers enough here, who hav,
nothing to do or think of, to furnish ali
