Wholesome Reform,

At the opening of Court, Monday
morning, Judge Okey announced to the
bar that the amendment of last win ter
to the jury law contemplated that there
after courts shall so arrange their dock
cts as to first try, in order, all jury cases,
and then discharge the jury from further
attendance upon the term. His Honor
thought the law a wise one, and an
nounced that instead of keeping the jury
here six or eight weeks, much of the time
idle, 1t would be employed daily until its
work is done, and then discharged. This
wholesome reform will save taxpayers
of this county two or three thousand
dollars per annum.

THE HARVEST FLY.-The advant

THE HARVEST FLY.-The advance
guard of the harvest fly (or seventeen
year locust) has made its appearance in
this vicinity, and doubtless within a
week the air will be vocal with their
music. The books say this insect eats
nothing whatever during its life. With
its little augur it bores a hole of intini-
tesimal proportions in the young and ten-
der limbs of trees, and then deposits its
eggs therin, where they are Matched.
The embryo locust then drops to the
ground, and at once bores its way down
to the roots of the tree, upon which it
lives its allotted time in the earth.
Woodpeckers and other birds destroy
great numbers of the eggs.
