Travellers aud inhabitants both informed
me that on some parts OF the st. johns,
especially about Paiatka, there is an insect
Of this name which rivals the famous lice of
Egypt, and is believed to be q lincal de-
scendant of that terrible plague. They do
not sting, but their name is uncountable
myriadS. During the month OF June they
rise from the swamps and streams, from the
whole surface Of the river, from every place
that is damp, and ill the air and infest every
pace.
II fire is lighted they will ny into it in
such numbers US to put it out. They will
cxtinguish lamps and candles fly into the
open mouths Of the people, so that it is
dangerous to yawn; fly up against the walls
OF house and fall down in masses to decay,
and cover the decks OF steamers, to be swept
off like dust and cindcrs. In fact, they are
everywhere, and everywhere nuisance.
And the disagrceable part of their lives is
that they are offensive in odor. The stencil
from them, dying in heaps, is said to he hor-
ribie--as unlike cologne as possible indeed,
the price Of that article always rises when
they appear. The only thing tolerablc about

THE PRACTICAL BEAUTIEs OF Mo

THE PRACTICAL BEAUTIES OF Nor
MON ,PoLYGAMY.-A Gentle woman in
Utah lately gave correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Commercial this littl., but
telling sketch Of the practical Workings
of the Mormon SYSTEM: ". t.,.
"Now, there's Eph. Roberts, over
there" pointing to stone house near
the mountain, she broush a real young,
delicate wife from New York, poy 60
ing on sixteen years ago, and She work
cd hard, I tell you; why, I've known
her to do all her own work, when Eph.
had three hands and the threshlng maj
chine at his house, aud sometimes she
worked out in the field, bound wheat
aud raked hay, which you know isawful
on delicate New York woman; faint
as if she'd been raised to it., like we folks
and after all, Just last year Eph. went
and married another woman, a real young
one, not over twenty, and don't you
think, this spring she knocked Maria
that's his wife-down with the churn-
dasher and scalded her.. Eph stood by,
and said "Go in, Luce; kill her if you
can." 1t all started about churg, too.
Both wanted to use it at "ncc. Maria
had it and her butter was slow comm
and they got mad, and Luce struck her,
and then snatchcd the kettle right of
the stove and poured lot water on her
feet, so she fell down when she tried to
run out. And wat vas the result final
ly? Well, Maria left him, Of course
she had to, or be killed. It's very nice,
though, for the men. l had a.d2zcn
chances to marry old Murmcus; but law!
| would mt give that for all of'em. Why,
Just turn things around and let a woman
have two or three man, and see how
they'd like tlat. There wouldn't be
no Inurderin done in these rarts-oh,.

The BANK OF THE STATE.-The
Charleston Neus gives the following as
the grounds on which the injunction a
gainst Governor Scott, to prevent him
from issuing bonds to the ill-holders of
the Bank of the State, is to be applied
for:
/. Because The provision contained
in the Act which authnriz IS the bonds,
requiring the Governor to cake posses
sion of TIE assets Of the bank, is con-
dition precedent to the issuing of the
bonds.
2. Because the Act is unconstitu-
al, inasmuch as it does not comply wit h
the requirement of the CONSTITUTION
prohibiting ..h!.e Legislature from pass.
ing Acts creating obligations, without
at the same time, laying q tax by which
to provide for meeting the same: =.
8. Because the equal forinalities OF
legislation were not complied. with in
the passage of the Act.
4. Because the Act is contrary to the
direction of the late Constitutional Con
vention to the Legislature, to examine
into the liabilities of the Bank and
make provision for the same. -

FROM THE OGECHEE.-Sheriff Doom
er, Deputy Sheriff Isaac Russell: aud a
posse arrived in this city yesterday by
the evening train, with sixty-seVen
prisoners, making in all eighty.three OF
the robbers of the Southfeld planta-
tions, now in custody. They were march
ed to the United Staets Barracks tOr
safe keeping last night, and will be com
mitted to the Chatham county Jail to-
day by Justice p. NJ. Russell, Jr. A
general notice was given to the negroes
for whose arrests warrants were in the
hands Of the sheriff, to GONE to the mil.
tary headquarters Of General Sweeny,
and in response thereto most. OF the fol.
lowing named colored men made their
appearance at the camp and were ar,
rested.
Sheriff Dooner reports all quiet en-
the Ogeechee when he left. The mill,
tary remain in camp at the Grove plan
tation, and the sheriff expects to re-
turn today or tomorrow for the purpose
of securing the remainder Of the rob-
GERS for whose arrest warrants are in
his possession. The impression seems
to prevail that but few more will come
forward and surrender, and that it viii
be necessary to seek for the Bmainder,
The course pursued by the military
is worthy of commendation, and has
doubtless broken up the organization
of this band of marauders whose pro.
ceedines were calculated and intended
to render planting an impossibility in
