Bugs.

        One of the plagues of Egypt has visited several districts in County Derry, Ireland. A fly, hitherio unknown, but almost the size of a house-fly, has appeared in such vast numbers as to fill the air like mist. They molest the animal kingdom alone, awarming about horses, cattle and men, and inflicting a venomous sting which produces inflamation, some times closing the eyes of horses and driving cattle wildly home from the field.
