 Easy methOd of H;ving Bees.--Mr. Mo-
 sos Winslow, of Westbrook, has described
 to us this method of hiving bees, which he
 has praticed with complete success for fE- teen years, and has never known his bees to pitch on any other place thas that pre- pared for them.
 Drive down two stakes, about fonr fees apart, fifteen feet in front of tho bee house, and lay tho other part on the pole between
 the stakes. Put on this board in tho begin.
 ming and let it remain till the close of tho
 swarming season. Tho bees will pitch oh
 the under part of this board, and then that
 end which lies on the ground should be
 raised to a level with the other and put on a barrel, box, or something else. Thea turn the board upside down and placO the hive over the bees and fasten it with props to prevent the wind from blowing it down.
 By having board not more than foot wide, the hive will extend oue over the board and be less likely to kill the bees when it is placed over them, end it will ! leave room for the bees that may bo out- l side the hive to pass into tt. Mr. WipslOw observes that he has sometimes found three swarms at once pitched on one board in differen: places.-When he first puts up
 the board he usually rubs on it some honey or salt water, herbs, or tho like. but this may ! not be necessary.- Yankee Farmer. Morning Walks.-The pleasantness end
 usefulness of an early mornings w4lk, ,sin
 the promotion of health and improvements of the complexion, are well known end
 readily acknowledged by all ouy fair fead-
 CTS who have reduced their theories io
 practice, and have had the courage to un-
 dersake them. What can be more sgree- able than to rise when the sun ushers forth his radiant glories to the earth, and shaks- ing off the dullness of pampsred nature, to walk forth from the heat and confined air of your chambers to the enjoyment of the pure and salnbrious breeze of the new made morn-to sip the sweets of its balmy atmos- phere-to catch the feelings that awakened nature inspires-to contemplate tho glories l of regenerated creation, bright in it's eff0l-
 gence, and redolent in rich delights. To
 hear the melody of the featherod choir, sweet almost to the ear as the music of the spheres, and to gaze upon the astonished displays of art as she unfelds the magnif-
 cence of her architectural beauty, and ma-
 jestically waves the sceptre of her power over the subjugated earth. But tho grati6- cation of those important senses is not the only benefit to be derived from an early mornings walk. The animal spirits are elevated to high degree and happy tem- perature-an agreeable exhilaration of feeling is produced-the heart dilates with more expanded fulnoss and freedom-the mind is invigorated and enriched with rar- CT and more unrestricted vigor-and every part of the complicated machinery of mind and body moves in more perfees harmony and order, in unison with tho sweet and lofty diapason of nature's admirable work msnship. The strength is vastly improved and more firmly established, the flowers of heallhiest hue bloom beautifully upon tho lovely cheek-the cOuntenance is burnish- ed with most complacent brightness. and assumes smile of tranquil serenity-snd the accomplished and viGtuous lady, filled with the pleasures of contemplation and the joys of fond remembrsnce, refreshed with healthy exercise, resumes her task of duty with a cheerfulness of delight seldom felt before. Then. ladies, rouse from your dusky slumbcrs, and during the warm and sultry season take your early morning walks, and health and bloom and happiness hax
