 aLocusts.-The cicada sepiemdecim, or seven

 years Locust. has again made it's appearance

 in sOnne Of the towns in this country.. We

 heard this week, for the first time, that they

 had been discovered in great numbers in some

 of the orchards in Glastonbury. Seventeen years ago they infested the same orchards and did much damage tO the fruit trees. They make incision in tue tender twigs, probably for the purpose of depositing their. eggs, and the shoots are not nnfrequently wholly de- stroyed thereby. These insects are said to make their appearance with entire regularity once in,17 years, and their regular return at such distant periods is among the inscrntable mysteries which WIG do not understand, and shall not of course attempt to explain. Some ofthe orcliards in SUffield also, we learr, are suffering On account of the rasages of the Lo- cust.-Hartfohd Pat. and Democrat. q !, zs

We have not lsarDt how far thesrayages, of the worms ex- fend but in this vicinity they have entirely blasted the fairprospects lately enjoyed of fruitful season for apples. - Bridgeport E Far.
