We make the following extract from

the New York American.

NATURES MUSIC.

There's music in the prattling brook,
And in the whispering gale;
IT'S heard upon the lonely hill,
IT'S echoed from the vale.
The breeze that round the rose bud signs,
And fans the virgin flower,
Or gently waves the forest boughs,
Is armed with music's power.
The silent stars and gentle moon,
"A bright and glorious choir, -
Light up the midnight canopy
With music's holy fire.
TITS this that makes US love to muse,
Beneath their followed light;
lis their unconscious melody,
Sends loneliness delight.
AL nature speaks through music's voice
The earth, the air, the sky,
The fading year, the falling leaf,
The rose that blooms TO die.
The mountain high, the deep ravine,
The outrageous forest trees,
The rocks that battle with the storm.
The rolling, roaring seas.
'Tis heard where man has never trod,
Where nature dwells alone;
Its voice can make the desert smile,
Can cheer the frozen zone. D. l.,

management depends on knowledge of

fuence; and no apiarian can at all times
be sure 10 succeed in their cultivation, un-
less he has thorough knowledge in man.
aging them.
He also instructed us In his art of COM
pelling the bees to make and keep on hand
extra queens how they may be divided
into separate colonies when they have be-
come too numerous, without swarmng.
He showed US how the bees would
transfer themselves when the age of their
combs rendered it necessary, by little
aid of their owner, and urges, by many
arguments, that bees should never be COM
PEELED TO leave one tenement and take an.
other.
We observed in one hive, that he had
killed the queen and confined her therein.
In this experiment, Mr.. Weeks is about
TO demonstrate several important facts, viz
That there is no monarchical government
in hive of bees, nor domineering power
in a queen; though the queen may be dead
the bees will continue to work as we'll
provided her carcass be present; and that
no young bees can be raised without a
queen; the old bees never eat bread, &c.
These experiments Mr.. Weeks intends TO
publish, and their results; therefore | can
only say, that it is an interesting system,
which affords an agreeable amusement, a
comfort and profit. He advances his opin
100, that bees are susceptible of high
state OF cultivation; that they will never
flee to the woods and mountains. unless
neglected by their owner, or through de.
hclency IN knowing how they must be
managed; and that he had not lost q
swarm by flight to the woods in seventeen
years. One reason of the bees desertino
for better quarters is, when the rays of the
sun are direct it exhausts the air in the hive
OF lis vitality. Mr.. W. sells the common
coarse wood drawers of honey, in Boston
at from thirty -four to forty-two cents Del
pound, by the quantity; and for his bes
glass and mahogany boxes, he receives 2
higher price.
| Mr.. Aaron Barns, of Rutland, states
that ten of his swarms in the Vernon

extra honey.
