THE THIRTEEN YEAR LoCUSTS.
Chattanooga fines.

From all sides we heG wailings over
the arrival of the thirteen year locusts.
The croaker, mid his lamentations, pre-
diets the ruin of the crops, and foresees
starvation, famine. ruin and disaster, and
the Adventist listens with eountenGnce
cleaning with satisfaction while the unc-
tious oil is poured into his capacious
pouch, as be calmly scans mother Ship
tons exhalations. Tie woods resound
with the hum and luzI Of the insects,
which drown the Clipping OF the birds,
the rustling of the leaves, the moaning Of
the winds, the loving Of the herds and
transforms the wnnted sylvan sti Illness
to the confused whiIr of the work shop
The locusts are the real thirteen year
locusts, as evidenced bS the w on the
wing and the red color Of the eyes.
The last visit of these lOeusts to this
section occurred thirteen years ago.
There is no danger to growing crops from
these insects, but they destroy thousands
! of fruit and forest trees. Their habits
are curious. The female fxes herself on
the small limb of tree snd cuts small
cavity beneath the bark into which she
lays her eggs. When the eggs are hatch
ed the grub deliberately drops to the
ground and digs int it. When he bur-
rows until he reaches the eni Of rootlet
Of the tree. He fastens to this and for
thirteen years lives underground, suck
ing the sap from the root Of tree. At
the end of thirteen to hfteen years he
energies from the ground, his back splits
open, wings make their appearance, and
he is then a locust and in for six weeks
of summer holiday. The mate does the
humming and the female puts new stock
of eggs under the bark Of the trees.

Tue FRuGr PROTECT. the present
writing there is the promise of an unu-
sually fine fruit crop.
The apple crop, exceeding in Importance
all the other fruits combined, viii be
fairly good one, much better than might
be expected in the off year.
The apple, generally speaking, bears
full crops only every other year, but ow-
ing to moist weather last summer aud fall
most trees that bore full last year are now
fairly laden; and while very heavy crop
need not be expected, there is little doubt
that superior quality will compensate for
the less quantity.
Peaches were considerably winter killed
in unfavorable localities but the crop will
fully equal that of last year, though 1t is
not likely that in quality there will be
repetition Of the marked exeellence OF the
yield of 1880.
The small fruits all promise unusually
WELL but the outcome will be proportlonate
to the amount of rain fall. Strawberries
promised early in the season crop oil an
usual excellence, but at this writing the
prospect is blighted, and no matter no"
favorable the weather should prove now,
only q partial crop may be expected
Some sections of the country have beer
more favored with rain than this, and
there, of course, the outlook may be more
favorable.

Kentucky sepmbiicans Quar-

An ugly quarrel between two leading
Republicans Of this State has found its
way into the newspapers.
Mr.. commonly called COLI Walter Evans,
late Republican candidate for Governor OF
Kentucky. made application for the Judge
ship vacated by the death of Judge Ballard.
Gen. Z. A. Murray, late U. S. Marshal,
now Governor of Utah Territory, protest
ed, by letter and kilograms, TO the Presi
dent against the appointment OF Mr..
Evans. He said the appoi would
be unfii to be made;" that Evans was ga
mischief maker in politics" "a chronic
Office seeker" and that he was not enti-
tied to wear the title Of Colonel. Could
anything be more damaging to an aspir-
ing KeRtuckian2
Murray's letter and kilograms were
placed on file ia Washington, and Evans
has just obtained copies OF them, which
he publishes with rejoinder. Evans
shows that he can sling epithets with as
much facility as his assaiiant. He calls
Murray ''an unmaSlJ traducer," ga mall
content in Kentucky politics, " "abomina-
bly, mean aud false" and more than init
mates that "Mr. Murray obtained large
sums of money from the government to
which be was not entitled"

1nxxa,s walled Lake.

Burlington Iowa Hawkeye.
The greatest wonder in the State of
Iowa, and perhaps in any State, is what
is called the Walled Lake. in Wright
county, twelve miles north of the Dubuque
& Pacific railway and one hundred and
fifty miles west of Dubuque City. The
lake is two or three feet higher than the
earth surface. Ia some places the wall
is ten feet high, fifteen feet wide at the
bottom and FIVE feet wide at the top. An
other fact is the size of the stone used in
the construction. the whole of them vary
ing in weight from three tons down to 100
pounds. There is an abundance of stones
in Wright county, but surrounding the
lake, to the extent of five or ten miles,
there are Rone. No one can form an idea
of the means employed to bring them to
the spot or who constructed it. Around
the entire lake is belt of woodland half
a mile in length, composed of cak. With
this exception the country is a rolling
prairie. The trees must have been plant
ed there at the time of the building of the
wall. In the spring of the year 1855
there was great storm and the ice on the
lake broke the wall in several places, and
the farmers in the vicinity were obliged
to repair the damage to prevent inunda-
ton. The lake occupies ground surface
of >, 900 acres; depth of water as great as
twenty-five feet. The water is clear and
cold, soil sandy and loamy. II is singular
that no one has been able to ascertain
where the water comes from nor where it
goes, yet it is always clear and fresh.

The Danville Tribune makes a feeble
and disgusting atte mpt to revive he ak
pIoded yellow fever SANDER on Governor
Blackburn The matter is scarcely worth
notice anywhere in Kentucky, and the
utterers and retailers of such falsehoods
will meet their proper reward in public
contempt. The word ''yellow fever has
no unworthy or unpleasant associations
as connected with Governor Black burn.
Had the noble and voluntary services
rendered to suffering humanity at the
risk of his life been the gratuitous work
of a subject of monarchical government,
the physician would have been rewarded
with titles of nobility and pensions for
life. In this free country of ours it is the
privilege of Tray, Blanche and Sweet
heart to bark at the heels of merit. but it
is likewise the privilege of the just and
the gene rous TO reward such services as
those of Governor Blackburn in private
protest. onai capacity with the homage Of
an admiration which, though sincere,
pays the giver more than the receiver.
He may be criticised for much officially
or personally, but when one mentions the
yellow fever in connection with his name,
memories of heroic service at Hickman,
Memphis and Bermuda are revived. aud
he and his friends are made to feel proud.
