third week in April the grasshoppers be -

until the last of May. Then th" work of
destruction began. The wheat, corn and
grass were tatSfi off to the ground ; the
young and tender vegetables disappeared
like snow wreaths before this aU-derour-
ing army. The grapes, h aves and ten
drua, the strawberries, buds, bloasonu,
and the plants themselves ; the turf,
shrubbery, and all kinds of small fruits,
shared alike the same fate, until by the
1st of June the lawns, shrubbery, veget-

large patches. On the roads the under
growth was stripped of both leaves and
bark, and seme of the large grasshoppers
were working on the foliage in the
tops of the forest trees. Osage orange
hedges were completely denuded of bark
and leaves, the onoe trim and beautiful
barriers presenting the appearanoe of
only a tangled oht vaux-dt -rite of dry,
thorny brash, which will never grow
again. The only sign oi yegetaoie iixe

tai.i exic a, relieve others, but small
farmers, and all depending n the pro
ducts of the soil for a support, are m a
in--st pitiable condition. 1 have heard
of strong men begging, with team in
their eyes for a few pounds of fioUT and
bacon for their Starving little ones. A
whole family, consisting of father,
mother, and three children, died for
want of food to keep !. dy an I soul to

Between Independence and Kansas City.
It is but justice to say that the neighbors
and citizens were not uwure of
the facts of the case, and wen- not,
therefore, responsible for the terrible
death which overtook these poor pil
grims on their journey to the better
laild. This is, we believe, the first 01 IS
of the kind which has transpired in
Jackson county, but. from present indi
cations, the future twelve months will
laak. many graves marked with the in
scription, "Starved to death." Think
of it, yon who daily sit down to beauti
fully spread tables, and then, if you can,
refuse to give to these poor suffering
ones, li you could but BCC what 1 have
seen, of the destitution of the people,
you would not hesitate iu this matter,
but would gladly help the old and in
firm, the crippled, the widows and or
phans, whose cries for bread, bread, are
daily ascending to heaven, lam in re- 1
Oeipt of a letter from a friend residing
about live miles from Independence, in
which it is stated that the destitution in
the oountry among the poorer aliases Is
simply fearful ; thai many families have ;
nothing but corn meal and water as a 1
means of subsistence, ami some others
have nothing but bran and water, and
that if assistance is not rendered soon,
murder and robbery will be the ord. r of
th" day. Stock of ill kinds Sure dying
off daily. One of their horses had died
the night before ; he had been tinned
out to pick up a living from what he

nal valia .
One evening there was taken from the
Court-House yard in ndepencb nee fif
teen barrels of grasshoppers, each bar-
( rel weighing over 300 pounds. Tins
went the rounds of the papBTS, and it
was amusing to see the comments it oc- i
usioned. They did not hesitate to state '
taut if it was not a fish story it was vry
lai grasshopper story; and yet this is
a fact, to my certain knowledge, for I
was there at the time. I have s en the
fences, thebodiesol trees, the shrubbery

I Tha following sotoda ooourred at
B&aaaillon on Thursday of last week. On
;l stiver, m ar the spot where th.- ami (
Banuim'i show wat pitched, two tnea
approached eaefa other, ami when about
bin feet anart both stopped and stood
for a moment gaaing at saoo outer in
mat.' aatoniahment, whan khey rnahed
each into the other's arma, and Uka two
autniaos hngged and kissed each other;
then separating, they took another look
1 and went through the same unrestrained
oneration; anil while thev stood nana in
hand a third man approached, and on
seeing them, he came up, star, d at then
a moment when they noticed him, and
the trio went through the same frantic
and loving motions, shaking hands,
laying On and hugging each other iii
turn. At first we thought the men were
drunk, but upon further observation,
ami on approaching the group, we
learned the facts were theSO. The two
who first met w. re Dr. J. R. Gardner.
of Brook field, in this county, and John
Shang, boss cauvasmau with the Bar
nutn show; both had been for three
y an inmates of the Ohio Penitentiary,
where from day to day they had marched
side by side, without daring to speak a
word t each other. Shunt' had been
wnt from Carroll ton for killing a man in
a genera tight, and the people of Oar-
rollton regarded him as innocent, but
circumstantial evidence led tlu; Judge to
send him up. Gardner will be rcmcm
bered as having been sentenced from
Canton nearly four years ago. Shang
was released s vera! months before
(laidner, and thev hud never nu t to
speak, from the time they first saw each
other in the prison until last Thursday,
The third man, now traveling for some
Columbus establishment, was for a long
time guard in the penitentiary, and both
Shang and Gardner had been under his
supervision ; they hung about his neck
and Called him their dearest friend, and
sad he was the kindest and best guard
that ever stood in the walls of the Ohio
Penitentiary. The whole transaction
was very touching, and we can confident
ly assert that not one of the men was
under the influence t honor in the
slightest degree, nor were their actions
prompted bv any but earnest emotions,
natural under the circumstances, S"ar-

Last or the Swamp Angels.
A Goldsboro, N. C., dispatch to the
Mew fork Herald says: since 1S71 a'
stalwart mulatto, passing under the as- !
BUmed name of Bill Jackson, has been
living in this neighborhood following the
vocation of a plaaten r and brick mason.
Jackson and another negro had been
suit rs for the hand of the same woman,
and this engendered bitter hostility be
tween them. They had hitherto been
warn; friends, and it was during this pe
riod ot intimacy between them that Jack
son divulged to his friend the secrets f .
his forna r life with the robber chief
Henry Berry Lowry In Robeson county.
Jackson's rival betrayed him, and, act
ing upon the information received from
him, a letter was s. at t- Sheriff McMil
lan of Robeson county, asking for a
minute description of George Apple
white. A photograph of the bandit was
the response, and led to the apprvheu-
Sion of Bill Jackson as the escaped free
I ter.
While Applewhite was engaged in
conversation upon one of our principal
streets to-day he was approached by
William Freeman and Bryan! Oopps,
who commanded him to surrender.
(Jpon his refusing the summons the offi
cers clinched him, ami a desperate
struggle ensued. Though wholly ttn- ,
armed, Applewhite did effectual execu- I
tioo with his lists, knocking Freeman
OUt of time in the first round. He then
ran rapidly down James street toward
the market house, but was SOOO over- I
taken by his fleeter pursuers and beaten
Into submission. The officials here are,
positiv. as to his identity. Applewhite
murdered Mr. King, a former Sheriff of
Robeson county, and was sentenced to
death. With the assistance of his con- 1
fed rates he escaped, and has bean at
iarge ever since till now. He was con
sidered one of the most daring, brutal,
and devilish of the " swamp angels."

It has been generally supposed that a
bald le ad was of no account, even to the
owner, but Vicksburg stands np and re
marks to the contrary. Tle other day B
resident of this city went up to Thomp
BOn's Lake to get a shot at t he bi: alligS
tor, and while eating a cold bite in the
shade a man jumped OVCX the fence, pre
sented an old army musket at his head
ami cried out :
" Stranger, ankiver yer head I"
The Vicksburger was dumbfounded,
but made hast.' to remove his hat and
exhibit a pate which shone like a newlv
polished pilpaw.
11 Stranger, that saves ye !" continued
the man, as he shouldered his musket ;
I I thought ye was the red-hcuded
, peddler who charged my wife seventy
five cents for a testament which hasn't
got a darned picture in it !M Vicksburg

Twenty Lalies.
On June 1, James Warren was sen-
I ftsoosd t three mouths' imprisonment
I and forty lashes, to be delivered in two
batches of twenty each, for the crime ot'
rape upon a little girl. Yesterday nioru-
: ing the prisoner re eived the flrai twenty
. hislieu. A little after '. o'clock, the prifl
oner, .lames Warren, was brought from
hjeoelL He walked into the hull with
( a firm step and removed his coat, waist
coat, and shirt, and stepped to the tri
angle, to which he was hung strapped, so
that tt was impossible for him to move a
limb. The prisoners were theu "ailed in
and ranged round three sides of the hall.
There w. re present the Sheriff, Deputy
BharinT, Dr. Richardson, the jail surgeon,
' and the reporters of (he morning papers.
at 9:80 the Sheriff took the cut, which
odnajsted ol nine Isshns of whip cord,
each having a knot on the and, ami
' handed it to the executioner, who was
one of the prisoners of the jail. Time
was given by the Sheriff, and Sir. Bwing,
turnkey, was stationed as counter. The
executioner showed some nervousness,
but on receiving ncouragement struck
' the first blow upon the prisoner's
shoulders, high up ami close to the
leather collar which was placed round
his neck. The second blow, w hich was
d Livered with the full strength of the
executioner's arm, fell in the same place,
and the executioner, who now appeared
to have full command of his powers, de
livered the third blow in the same lo
cality. The Sheriff whispered to him to
strike lower, and the next blow wius
given below the former ones. The fifth
was given still lower, and the sixth was
struck in the name place. Up to this
the prisoner remained silent, but his
heavy panting showed that he was suffer
ing severely. On receiving the seventh
stroke the prisoner moaned, and he con
tinued moaning during the rest of the
punishment, and kept moving his head
from side to side with a quick mechan
ical motion. His sufferings were intense,
his muscles were distended, and he
struggled to free himself from the iron
grip that held him to the triangle, as
stripe after stripe of the cat descended
upon his back. No cry escaped his lips,
but his agonizing moan showed that he
WM suffering, and when the turnkey an
nounced twenty his back, from the neck
to the waist, was one livid mass, red,
swollen ami bleeding. Every knot on
the lash had cut into the prisoner's back,
producing a wound about an eighth of
an inch in Umgth. As soon -us the pun
ishment was over the prisoner was re
leased, and trembling in . v. ry limb, he
was led back to bin oelL Turonto i

Ext raoH i BS rj Suicide.
A Koine correspondent describes a re
markable suicide of recent occurrence
there, which has caused much sadness
ami horror among the professional and
artistic Romans. The victim was the
distinguished Juvara, an engraver of the
highest reputation and s pupil of the
celebrated I'allll;' eli;raver, Toschi. He 1
was 67 years old, easy in means, married
to a good wife, and lived in a quiet, or
derly, old-fashioned way. On the morn
ing of the fateful day he shut himself up
in his private studio, and proceeded in S
leisurely and systematic manner to kill
himself. He was over sis hours in per-!
forming the horrible act, and has left a
written record of his sensations during
that time. At 8 o'clock he OUt vein in
his foot and OOUeoted the blood In a
dish; then with a brush painted with it on
the Wall, on S great cart ion, various sen
tences at dill, tent hours. For instance,
one of these a otenoes said i B o'clock.
ith a serene and obi erful COnsciet , I
am awaiting my death." Another is
" 10 o'clock. Death has not yet arrived.
I now cut the rem in my arm." At 10:80
he wrote ; 44 How strange! The blood
mounts to my head. God pardon me,
for I pardon my enemies." Tlu-saddest
sentence is this: 44 2 o'clock. 1 have
recovered my reason. My God, wliut
have I done I What a rash ad I It is
too late, however, to repair the evil. 1
will now put an end to myself at once."
Whereupon it seems that he took a re
volver and shot himself in his mouth,
which killed him instant ly. Upon en
tering the studio an hour afterward they
found the poor old man dead, sitting in
an arm-chair, holding the revolver in one
hand ! The bloody writing on the wall
told the am I story.
