HoNry BsEs.-lhe Albany Cul-
tiyllor has an iniefe. ing article on
honey bees, from the pen Of dis
uugulshcd professor, lroa which We
quote the following paragraph;
Many, nearly everybody opposes
that the bee calls honey from the
nectar of flowers, and simply carries
II to his cell IN the hive. This is not
colreei. The nectar he collects from
the flower is portion Of its food or
drink the honey II deposits in It's
cell is a secretion from its meliiic, or
honey secfeling glands, (lnalagous to
lie milk secreling glands Of the cow
aal other an,mals.) If they were
the mere collectors and transporters
OF honey from,tAe flowers TO the
honey comb, then we should have
the comb frequently filled with mo-
lasses, whenever the bees have fed
al molasses hogshead. The honey
bae ia the bee preforgs the same
inoctions as the cows bag or udder,
merely receives the honey from the
secrcung glands, and retains it until
proper opportunity presents for It's
btug deposited in the appropriate
siuuhouse, the honey comb.
Another error is, that the bee col
lects pollen from the flowers acclden;
tally white il is in search of honey
Quue the contrary is the fact
When in seurcho nectar. or honey
ms it is improperly called, the bee
does not collect pollen. Il goes in
search of pollen specially, aud also
lof nectar. Vine the pollen of the
flower is ripe anc q, for the use Of
Tie bee, there is 40 nectar; when
there lsneeiar, there is no pollen fit
for use ia the flower is generally
supposed, also, that the bee constructs
the wax from which It's comb is made,
from such vegetable sabstances.--
This is likewise an error. The wax
is o secretion from the body, as the
honey is aud il makes It's appearance
in small scales or flakes, under the
riuss Of the belly, and is taken thence
by othe. bees, rendered plastic by

LATEST FROM CUBA.-The mail steamship
Catauba arrived at New York on the 10th,
in four days from Havana. The Official Ga
zette, of the 9th, contradicts the statement
that the government of Spain had directed the
Captain 6 eneral to indemnify the owners of
the Black Warrior. On the contrary, it says
that the Queen has the fullest confidence in
the zeal. services and action of General Peru
ella, and that he will bring the affair to proper
termination, recommending him at the same
time to maintain the dignity Of the nation.
1t is said that there are ten thousand addi-
tional troops now on their way way from
Spain, to reinforce the army on the Island.
A correspondent of the n. Y. Tribune,
writing from HAVANA, on the 18th, says:
There can be no doubt but that we are fast
verging to a desperate state of things, and, in
spite Of our desires and interests, the blacks
will be made free. All the movements of the
Government have that tendency, as appears
from the documents recently issued here.
Among the Cuban population, even of the
white class, there are many in favor of aboli-
ton and there are others taking their stand
among this class, not descendants from whites
on their mothers side, who would not dislike
seeing all doubt as to their being as good as
their neighbors, done away with bv the equal
ization of the different races upon the Island.

Next and last comes the Suspension Bridge
1t is one of the wonders of the world, but Is
nothing compared to the Railroad Bridge now

magnificent work in the world. There are to
be three tracks across the BRIDGE the Great
Western track, the guage of which is live
feet six inches the Canandaigua and Elmira
road, which intersects the New York and
Erie, at the latter place, with guage of six
feet; and the New York Central which runs
directly through Lockport and Rochester, with
guage of four feet ten inches.

Hon. n. P. BANKS, JR.-Considerable SEN
sation was produced, yesterday, by letter
from the Washington Correspondent of the
New York Times, charging Hon. Nathl P.
Banks, Jr. with treachery to the cause of
Freedom, in his vote on an incidental ques-
ton, in relation to the Nebraska Bill We give
no heed to the denunciations of this letter
writer. "No other paTer has the news. =
John Wentworth and large number of the
staunchest opponents of the swindle voted
with Mr.. Banks, and the vote is nowhere else
spoken of as indicating any hinching. The
Tribune Correspondent speaks in direct terms of
it, and says, that when the main contest
comes, Mr.. Wentworth and his associates
will be found unfinching and true. -
We think the Times letter writer must have
had some personal reason for his assault on
Mr.. Banks, for we can in no other way ac-
count for his being singled out, by name, from
the number of other anti-swindle members
who voted with him on that occasion.

SEVERAL LARGE FAILURES have recently
taken place in Philadelphia. The business of
that city, has been unusually heavy the pres

to secure safe customers. The fact is, that the
present initiation of business and prices, must
come to an end, and the sooner the reaction
