Millions of CrIckeis.

August Dallas was visited by flight of small
hard-shel beetles which at night would strew
themselves over the sidewalks and OCCASION
ally crawl down the backs of passers-by.
This year there has been change in the pro
gramme, and instead of beetles there has
come visitation of crickets of the singing
variety, which has been immortalized by the
poet who wrote The Cricket on the Hearth"
A single cricket hidden away behind large
friedrich occasionally touches a tender chord,
but wien the horny-looking things cluster by
millions, frying in the electric lights and
crawling over the sidewalks. the idea of the
poetic gives way TO that of the hideous. The
creatures seemed to descend from the clouds,
as if attracted by the electric lights while
migrating in the upper regions of the atmos-

the south. indicating that they came from the

inquiry to the effect the result in his district
would have on the democratic party and on
the independent fighters he said:
I'VE carried our county for Hume by a larger
majority than had been expected, but Gen.
Lees overwhelming victory in the district in
spite of this vigorous Endorsement of Hume in
his own home means good deal For some
time there has been an undercurrent Of senti-

governor, and he may be formidable candi-
Of Virginia her governors are elected for one
four years term only, and Gen. Lees next
term IN Congress will expire Just as the guber-
material campaign of '93 comes on. 1t is not
likely he will care to remain in Congress
longer, and while many do not deem him well
fitted for the rough and tumble duties of that
body they believe him well equipped for the
executive chair OF the state. and Alexandria
county would reverse its majority of over 300

'Yes, indeed. We worked for hustler. be-

Immediately issue manifesto to his Cork con-

This division created good deal of comment.
as the majority was much larger than was OBJ
tanned by the same bill at the last session. This
difference was largely due to the fact that Mr.,
Parnell and about dozen of his followers in

ment to the bill. but a majority of the party.
including Sexton and Healy. abstained from
voting. 1t is held by Parnells friends that his
support was extended to the government in
consequence of Balfours concessions to his
view in reference to the holdings to be dealt
with in the bill The Gladstonians. however.
believe this altered attitude to be due to resent
ment of Gladstones action.
The latest developments in the Irish political
crisis indicate that under the advice and lead
ership of Parnell the Irish party will cut loose
from the liberal party and fight its own battle
for home rule. During the vote on an amend
ment to the Irish land bill Gladstone and other
leading liberals left the house, while Parnell and
| his friends voted with the government.
