Mosquitoes III Delaware.
Correspondence New York sun.

The other day group of longshore-
men stood on the pier in Lewes, Del,
waving their hats and handkerchief
around their heads rs though filled
with enthusiasm awakened by some
cause that was not then apparent. But
wnen the passengers i'll the Old Domn.
ion steamer landed they began waving
hats and handkerchiefs rs vigorously
The cause of these demonstrations was
a cloud of Mosquitoes. At the railway
station in Lewes there We're fires OF
pennyroyala and other weeds burning in
front oil the windows to drive out the in
sects, and the passengers were glad to
get into the smoke and enjoy moments
immunity from the annoyance.
AT Rehoboth Station, on the junction
4 BreaSwater Railway, the mosquitoes
were more numerous than in Lewes,
The negroes in the peach orchards had
their heads covered with old sheets
with holes cut through for their eyes
The men around the depot and the pas,
senaers in waiting had their heads GOV
cred with mosqui 10 nets like wells. II
was impossible TO purchase a piece OF
mosquito netting in the neighborhood,
While the stages were waiting II man
was stationed at the head of each horse
to hold the nearly frantic animals. AT
Rehoboth Beach the mosquitoes were
thicker than Mt the station. There
were at the beginning of the week over
400 guests at the Bright House, and on
Friday not twenty-five remained. They
had been driven away by the mos.
quitoes. Persons walking in the streets
we're nearly obscurad by the clouds OF
mosquitoes around them. BY bringing
the hands together handful of mos.
quitoes could be caught at single
sweep. The ladies light dresses were
almost black, SO thickly were they GOV.
cred. The hotel proprietors were SO
pestered by the insects that they seemed
to not care whether their guests re.
manned or not. Double nets on the
windows and darkened rooms gave par
tial relief, but the mosquitoes made
their way everywhere. II was only by
having a negro oyer each person at the
tables that guests could partake of tEeil
meals.
1t is said that the south winds and
muggy weather brought them from the
South Jersey and Delaware swamps, and
that the pest would probably be ended
with a strong wind from the ocean
Sailors say that they met the mos.
quitoes many miles out at sea, some.
thing they never before experienced
Nearly all the places along the coast
were similarly infested, but none 81
