Sting ON Bee.

The ingenious experiments of the Gel

sively, that the venom flhe bee is sstricily
analogous in its nature and mode flop
Grafton, 10 that ofthe viper. The matter
is a thin .diaphenous fluid retained in YES
sicles so constructed that they can admit
ofa ready compression in the act of sting
ing-during which the poison liquid is
forced through the hollow tube of the
sting in the same way that the irritating
sap of the ncttle is elected through the
oculet, or singing spines ofthat and other
similar plants. The most eficacious
remedy ! have ever found for the sting of
bee. is simple chalk. As soon as you
are stung, apply as much ofthis substance
as you cantake upon your thumb nail, in
a moist state, and permit it to remain as
long as the pain subsidies. After this
application there will be no soreness. aud
no inflammation.

Talent Always Worth "a Price.

No men are more justly entitled to fair
prices, than truly qualified and competent
teachers. And this, not barely because of
the value they give in return, but because
of the great outlay of time aud money
necessary to prepare for their profession.
Some teachers have spent dozen years
in their preparation, and have laid out
many thousand dollars. capital of time
and money sufficient to have made them
rich. in merchandise, or at any me-
chanical art. Few persons can estimate
the value ofthings, where results are pro
duced with ease, and in moment. They
must see the labor performed. Most
can readily believe that railroad, ca
nal. or ship, is worth all the money
asked for it but they cannot understand
why painting or slalue, should he
held at many thousand dollars. Nor
can they be amazed that Paganiui should
expect twenty guneas for a single tune

TIIE MOTH II Is.
BY HANS C. ANDERSON.

There sat a mother with little child.
She was so downcast, so afraid that 1t
should die. 1t was so pale; the small
eyes had closed themselves it drew its
breath SO softly. aud now and then with
deep respiration, as ifit sighed; and the
mother looked still more sorrowfully on
the little creature.
Then knocking was heard at the door,
and in came poor old man wrapped up
as in horse cloth, for it warns one. and
he needed it, as it was the cold winter
season. Everything out of doors was
covered with ice and snow, and the wind
blew so that it cut the face.
AS the old man trembled with cold,
and the little child slept moment, the
mother went and poured some ale into a
pint pot. and set it on the stove that 1t
might be warmed for him; the old man
sat and rocked the cradle, and the moth
,er sat down and on chair close by him,
looked at her little sick child that drew
its breath so deep, and raised its little
hand.
DO YOU think that | shall save hing
said she our Lord will not take him from
met"
And the old man, it was Death him
self, nodded so strangely, it could just as
we'll signify yes as no. And the mother
looked down on her lap, and the tears
ran down over her cheeks; her head be-
came so heavy; she had not closed her
eyes for three days and nights; and now
she slept. but only for minute, when
she started up and trembled with cold
What is ,harl' said she, and looked on
all sides; but the old man was gone, and
her little child was gone-he had taken
it with him; and the old clock in the cor
ner blurred, and buried; the great leaden
weight ran down to the floor, bump! and
then The clock also stood still.
But the poor mother ran out OF the
house, and cried aloud for her child.
Gu. there in the midst of the snow
there sat womanin long, black clothes
aud she said-"Death has heen in thy
chamber, and saw him hasten away
with thy little child; he goes faster thar
the wind, and he never brings back whom
he takes'
oh! only tell me which way he went!
said The mother, tell me the way and
shall find himl"
Il know III said the woman in The
black clothes, but before tell it, thot
must first sing for me all the songs tho'
hast sung for thy cMld--l am fond %
them; | have heard them before, an
Night; | saw thy tears whilst thou saHg's
them!' ..-. .t.-
Il will sing them all, all 7 said the moth
er; 'but do not stop me now-l may over
take him-I may find my childl'
But night sluod still and mute. Ther
the mother wrung her hands, sang ant
wept, and there were many songs, bu
yet many more tears; and then Night sale

forest; thither saw Death take his wa!
with thy child!'
The roads crossed each other in tht
DEPTHS of The forest, and she no longeI
knew whittier she should go; then there
stood thorn bush, there was neithe
leaf nor flower it, it was also in th'
cold winter season, and ice-hakes hunl
on the branches.
Hast thou not seen Death go past will
nv little child?" said the mother.
Yes said the bush; but | will not tel
thee which way he took, unless thou vii

To MAKE HENS LAY PERPETUALLY.-
Hens will lay eggs perpetualIY if treated
in the following manner: keep no rooslers;
give the hens fresh meat chopped up like
sausage meat, once day, to each hen
during the winter, or from the time that
insects disappear in the fall till they ap-
pear again in the spring. Never allow
any eggs to remain in the nest, for what
are called nest eggs. When the roosters
do not run with the hens, aud no nest eggs
are left in the nest, the hens will not
cease laying after the production of
twelve or fifteen eggs, as they always do
when rooslers and nest eggs are allowed,
but continue laying perpetnally. My
hens lay all winter, and each from seven
ty tn one hundred eggs in succession. If
the above plan was generally followed,
eggs would just be as plentiful in winter
as in summer. The only reason why
hens do not lay so ofreely in winter as in
summer is want of animal food, which
they get in the summer in abundance in
the form of insects. have for several
winters reduced my theory to practice,
and proved its entire correctness.-CO Cor
respoadence ofthe Perth Courier.

MANUFACTURING IN New HAvEN-The
largest establishment in the Union for the
manufacturing of Yankee Clocks" is
located in New Haven. 1t is perfectly
amusing to see the way they turn out
time pieces, averaging more than thirty
Thousand year. half Of which are sent to
Europe. They are neatly finished with
mahogany cases, the interior is Of brass
and the average cost not beyond SO. An
Infinite variety of small wares are also
manufactured there, aside from the ex-
tensive commerce which is carried on
with the West Indies. Vessels are con-
stantly leaving that port with horses and
mules for the Islands, where they are used
upon sugar plantations. These animals
are brought from every part ofthe North
ern and Middle States, and many come
from Kentucky.

Trick> uDOn Birds.

There is singular bird they call "The
Adjulant," in India. He performs the
duty Of scavenger, devouring offaI and
Furnishing the whole family of snakes.
He is huge, grave long gbeaked fellow,
with an air rather Dominic Sampsonish
than military. Some of the English sol
diers used to play sad tricks with him.
He would gobble UP large bones of beef,
or four pound loaf; and when he had fin
ished his huge meal, he would mount the
highest pinnacle he conld find, and stand
on one leg like matilaied statue, while
itdigesied. it The soldiers used to cleanse
out shank bones ofmuton, ,sluff'them with
gunpowder connected with slow match,
then throw them to the Adjutant, who,
swallowed them greedily; but while chuck
ling over his savory morsel, it would ex-
plnde and blow him to atoms! Another
trick upon the birds was to tie two legs OF
mutton together by strong cord, leaving
an interval of three or four yards and
then toss the rich repast among them
which soon found their way into the stom-
achs of two the most active. AS long
as they kept together it was all very well;
but as soon as the cord tightned both be
came alarmed and took wing, mutually
astonished at the phenomena, no doubt
A laughable tugging match then ensued
in the air, each Adjntant strivingt to mount
higher than the other, till at last they at
tained a great elevation. When atlengtl
the weaker bird was forced to disgorgt
his mutton, new power came into play
the force of gravity-and the pendul
um leg of mutton, after some ridiculous
oscillations, brought the conqueror to the
earth great deal faster than he wished
