THE DKOCT1I AND THR ORASSHOPFIRS.
Tbo St. Louis Republican of the 20th
has been permitted to publish the follow
ing letter to a lady of 8t. Louis :
Manhattan, Kas., Aug. Hi, 1874.
You wi 1 all feel sympathy for us, I
know, when I tell you we have had no
nun* yet, and the grasshoppers are still
with us as bad as ever! Nearly three
mouths without r«iu; g a«shoppers tor
two months, and excessive heat aud dust
uearlj all that time! I uever felt so dis
heartened and prone to murmur! Over
and over agaiu we have had heavy storm
clouds, thunder and lightning directly
over us, and fe t confident of relief; a
few drops would fad, and (except for a
slight cooling of the atmosphere) that
wou d be ull.
Every tree is stripped, the maples, wil
lows, fruit trees, bushes, grass, weeds
even—all greenness gone—and it preseats
such a singular, dreary sight; looking like
November with the heat of summer. Ou
oar seven pe «ch trees not a leaf is left,
and tho fruit euteu away and the pits left
hanging most forlorn! The “hoppers”
aro thick upon them from root to stem,
now eating the very bark, and many,
many a young tree will be killed. We
cannot step out of doors with comfort,
for thoy n-e in swuruis sud blind us, and
ut night I have to take off every article of
• lothiug separately,and carefully hunt the
pests. They are very destructive to cur-
taius and clothing.
In hanging out the clothes from wash,
the artiobs have to be watched with lynx
eyes, nud taken in as soon as dried, or
tiioy would be ppotted and eiten in a few
minutes. But thero is no use trying to
make you understand the nuisance ; you
cannot form an idea of their horrible de
struction without witnessing it, nor the
disgustingly nervous feelings they give us.
Tue trains are often stopped by clogging
up the trues. Even the plants iu my
house I am unable te preserve. They
have destroyed my geraniums, my calls
lily, etc., though I have kept them in the
parlor aud endeavored to protect thorn.

this unjust and partial sys'em of taxation.
