WAsHINGToy, FEB. 10, 1871

The Southern Mail has arrived, and W.
have New Orleans Picayunc of the Sd inst.
from which we select the following inforYa-
ton.
The above journal gives in detail the dis
cussion in the Mexican Congress on the pro-
ject to raise fifteen million by mortgage of
the Clergy; selling the same, if necessary, to
raise that sum.
The project was laid before the Mexican
Congress on the night Of the 18th Of Jan, and
OF the morning Of the 8th the discussion was
commenced, but limited to five o'clock in the
afternoon, when there was i recess until sey-
en- in the evening. A statement was then
made from the Vicar Gen in opposition 10 the
project. After much discussion, the pro-
jcct to mortgage the property was carried
50 to 81. q.
The question Of giving power to sell the
church property was then discussed, and dcci-
ded in the allirmatye--44 to 35.
The ministers argued that unless means
were placed ut the command Of the Govern
mcnt, the Vice President could not be respon-
sible for the safety of the country, and that
they were apprehensive that without funds
the army would be disbandcd, and would
march upon the capital to light the fires Of
civil war.

And lovely as some star that sleeps, on moon-lit
skies of night,
That on thy bright and peerless broH, the sunny

And sweet thy baby lispngs were, as carolled song
of May.
But ali, dark death hath stole away the light of thy
Young eve,
And all those merry prattng5 stllcd, and babe thee
pine and die,
And like some fair and gentle flower, that DROPS
mid summers bloom,
Thou yielded to its cold embrace nor trcmbled at
the tomb.
But lonely hearts are pinng now in bitterness for
thee,
For thy sweet smile, and laughing eye and notes Of
infant glce;
Why ever thus relentless death, why steal into their
bower
And bear away that cherished one, this fairc5t,
brightest 1lower
"Twas that l might transplant, to yonder world Of
Where trees are ever robed in green, and skies arc
ever bright,
Where dwell in all their gorousness, the FATHER
and the Son,
And since for Jesus the gem, took the lovliest
one"
And is it thus fair spirit then Jesus-Jcsus haste,
And sing of sweet redeeming love, and all its glo-
res taste;
Yes, with thy little brothers. join that infant che

Who miss them through the long, long day. and at

Think that in brighter, purcr lands they dwell mid

Patented May 9, 1916. Entirely nc,o Prncj-
PIES in the Management Of Bees. Simple,
Useful, Cheap and Durable.
yANHESE Hives the only ones of real value
and utility to farmers and others engaged
in the culture of Bees, now before the public,
are CONSTRUCTED UPON NATURAL PRINCE
PIES, and combine the following advantages :;
The Bees are easily hiycd in them-it never
becomes necessary to Kill eff the swarms
honey can at all times be taken away when
it can be spared by the swarms, Or can be ad~
dcd for the sustcnance of late ones; young
swarms can be taken away at the proper peri
DDS, and put into others hives, where they 90
to work without the trouble of swarming or
hiving, while the main swarms are never dis
entirely protected from robbery by neighbor-
ing Bees and from mice and insects; they can
be handled with perfect safety, and always
living and breeding in new honey comb, are
kept entirely healthy, and young swarms are
always fully developed,
The eggs or embryo of the Bee Moth, or
Miller, cannot hatch or mature around these
Hives and therefore the Bees are Entirely
Protected from the ravagcs of that destructive
enemy, while the ALTERNATING PRIN-
CIPLE is such that the Bees are kept indus
trous the whole season through, by always
having plenty of room to work in. Old hon
cy-comb cannot accumulate, nor will the Bees
"run OUT or 'die off," in these Hives. They
have been fully tested by actual use, under
direction of the Inventor, and all the swarms
and their increase, are now and will remain
as good as new young swarms.
Ample Directions accompany each Hive,
giving full Instructions for the Management
of Bees, which are so simple that any person,
with ordinary capacity and attention, cannot
fail to be successful in their management and
culture.
They are sold very cheap, and all farmers
or other persons who keep Bees, or wish to
enter into that profitable culture, will find
these Hives all that can be desired, and those
persons in the towns Of Pttsford Brandon,
Pittsield, Chittendcn, Mcndon, Sherburn,
Shrewsbury, Clarendon, and Rutland, are in
vited to call at Bucks & Curtss' Rutland,
