had been saturated with turpentino. The

broke into the cellar through a trap door in

it really was.

there is no doubt but that the destruction Of

serve much commendation for their stenuous
exertions to extinguish the fire.

The Locusts.

To he Editors Of tie ". Y. Post-The scv-
cntccn-year locusts have again made their
appearance, and will probably remain un-

referring to my memorandum book, that IN
the wear l843, they began TO show tnem-
selves on the 18th of May, and entirely
disappeared on the Goth Julyi they are
about ten days later this year.
These locusts were then, as tney are
now. plentiful on every fruit and forest
tree. but ] was not able to perceive th"t
they ate any thing-the sole object OF their
short life would seem to be the .propoga-
tion of their species. The females pune
ture the small branches of almost every
tree. about two feet from the end, ana He-
rosit their eggs. The branches soon ne
gin to wither, and finally break oil Mt the
snot where they have been punctured anu
| fall to the ground, thus permitting Tue
iorya, TO enter the earth and commence
their seventeen years of subterr"nean ex
istence. My fruit trees required several
wears to recover from the damage done IN
| Ills way by the locusts of ls43.
/ The object of this communication Is 10
elicit from Others some method of prevent
ing the ravages of these insects.

Correspondence Of the Philadelphia Press.1

WASHINGTON, June 6, 1860.
The death of the infant daughter of
Judge Douglas, born some months ago.
leaving the young mother for long peri
cd in condition of almost hopeless debiI-
ity, is a heavy blow to his happy domestic
circle. Judge Douglas has had his full
share of trials and excitements during the
last three years. His life itself has been
one always beginning and nevcr-ending
contest with adversely. Every triumph he
has achieved has been achieved against
the most cmbittered antagOnism. His
path, though made bright with great deeds,
has been beset by many foes, and covered
with many thornS. He has been no carpet
warrior. The leader in many hard fight,
he has been fortunate because he has bocn.
