THE PRUssAN WINDMILL.-The Prussian
correspondent Of the Boston Traveller thus
speaks of famous incident -
II climbed up little steep mound to see
that homcly windmill which makes, and Justly,
too, so much figure in Prussian history. II
stands directly opposite of Sans Souci--scp-
arated from it only by the road. do not
wonder that it was an eye-sore to the King.
The history of this mill will interest the re.
publican readers. Frederick the Great, when
building Sans Souci, wished to extend his gar
dens in all directions, but was prevented on
one side by mill-site. lie requested the
owner of the mill to take it down. The mar
declined to do so. Frederick then ordered
him to remove it, threatening to destroy it il
case of disobedience. The man refused K
comply, and brought suit against the King
Frederick lost his SUIT, the man kept his mill
and it stands to this day. This took place
before the first French Revolution. VIVA
the reiusals of the English House of Com
mons to comply with the demands Of the Stu
arts did for liberty in England, has this right
GUS Judgment done for liberty in Prussia
And the man lost nothing from the boIt
ground he took. His heir, when reduced t,
poverty, was obliged to offer the mill TO
sale. The king released him from his diff
culties, settled the estate upon him, sayin,
that the mill now belongs to Prussian history
1t still remains in the family.

A Coon REToRr.-A humorous young man
was driving horse which was in the habit Of
stopping at every house on the roadside.
Pas ing a country tarven where was collect
cd together some dozen countrymen, the beast,
as Usual, ran opposite the door, and then
stopped in spite of the young man, who ap-
piled his whip with all his might to drive the
horse on.
The men on the porch commenced hearty
laugh, and some enquired if he would sell the
horse.
Yes" replied the young man, "but l
cannot recommend him, as he once belonged
to butcher, and stops whenever he hears the
calves bleat."
The crowd retired to the bar in silence.

"SouANruM" is the name for species of
fun known only to the Nantucket folks. A
party of ladies and gentlemen go to one of
the famous watering places, where they fish,
dig CLANS, talk, laugh, sing, dance, play, battle,
sail, eat, and have general "good time, -
The food generally consists of chowder, baked
clans, and fun. No one is admitted to the
sacred circle, who will take offence at joke,
and every one is expected to do his or her
part towards creating general laugh. Any
man who speaks of business affairs excepting
matrmony) is Immediately reproved, and on
second offence is publicly chastised. Care
is thrown in the wind, politics discarded, war
ignored, pride humbed, stations levelled
wealth scorned, virtue exalted, and-tbis is
"squantum."

A man who was up to a thing or two offered
to bet that be could prove that this side Of
the river was the other side. This challenge
was soon accepted, and bet of $40 made,
then pointing to the opposite side of the river,
he shrewdly asked -
Is not that one side of the river 2"
agreed" said the man.
"And is not this tho other side ?''
YES" said the other.
Then" said the man, "pay me ten dol
lars, for, by your own confession, Ihave proved
that this side of the river is the other side.'

FRIGHT OLA pRrvArrER.

Sir Ralph Woodford told us that when his
steamer first started, in Trinidad. he and a
large party, as a mode of patronizing the
undertaking, took trip of pleasure in her,
through some Of the Boca of the main ocean,
Almost every one got sick outside, and as
they returned through the Boca Grande there
was no one on deck but the man at the helm
and himself. When they we're in the middle
of the passage, small prisateer, such as
commonly infested the guilt during the troubles
in Columbia, was seen making all sail for the
shore of Trinidad. Fer course seemed uuae-
countable; but what was their surprise, when
they observed that on nearing the coast, the
privateer never tackled, and finally she ran
herself directly on the shore, the crew at the
same time leaping over the bows and sides Of
the vessel, and scampering as if they vert
mad, some up the mountains and others into
the thickets. This was SO strange a sight
that Sir Ralph Woodlord ordered the helms
man to steer for the privateer that no mig
discover the cause of it. When they cam
close the vessel appeared deserted. Sir Ralpl
vent on board of her, and after searching
various parts without finding any one, he

man lying on a mat evidently with SOM

Any body can manage bees. It is the
easiest thing IN the world to do it, just as it
is to make an egg stand on end,-atter one
knows how. A man who knows their nature
and habits, and can avail himself Of their In
stincts, can make them do just what he pleases.
Ten thousand men have kept bees for thou
sands of years, and have watched their doings,
and many have written learned treaties upon
the economy Of their Commonwealth. But
it has fallen to Huber and Langstroth and

while they are unknown, have rendered their
movements SO mysterious. Any body can
