Bees generally winter in safety when
the hives are populous or full OF them pro-
vided they have supply OF honey. s
large mass of Bees ina compact body al
ways generate a degree of heat in winter
sufficient to keep them in an active state.
This is proved " the fact, that IN dlstribu-
tine them in the coolest weather few sal
IL out, though thsy may drop instantly III
a torpid condition, after coming IN contact
with cold air. It is the weaker families
that require the greater protection in WIN
ter; vet in a high latitude, where the
ground IS generally covered with snow for
three or four months, all families had bet
ter be protected in. some manner.
Some apiarans advocate placing bees N
cellars, but we do not approve Of the plan;
in consequence Of the danpness Of all eel
lars, more or less. Bees require dry at
mosphere. Others bury the hives in the
ground, and in some instances the bees
have winterod safely, being surrounded
with hay Of straw, so as to admit sufficient
air. Drive stakes down near the hiyes,and
ELL in around them with hay or straw, leav-
ing the passage way clear. This plan IS
very good one.
In all cases, when bees ale liable to sally
out their hives, VII n the ground IS cover
ed with snow, board should be placed
against the hives, directly before the en-
trance way, 50 as to clarken it as much as
possible, and yet place no real hi drance to
the bees going out, if they desire to leave
the hive. 1t viii not do to close the en-
frances, and make prisoners Of the bees, as
the, will come down III warm days, and
hundreds Of them will die in the struggle.
But if the entrance is SO obscured that the
rays Of the sun shall not fall on it, very
few bees will attempt to leave thor hives
ii winter.
The plan Of placing the hives in dark
ened room above ground, is not particular
y Objectionable, unless in mild winters
III such cases, the bees viii ,eave their
hives in large numbers, and crawl about
the floor, very few finding their way back
again into their hives.
Another method is to make outer boxes,
to Which the hives are set IN November or
December, leaving them on the stools or
resting boards, as they stood during the
summer. A passage is cut to the outer
boxes, SO that the bees can 90 in and cut
as usual. This plan we think the best, all
things considered, for q climate as cold as
Central New York.
The reason why SO many bees die in
winter, with an abundance Of honey in
their hives, is owing to the cold being SO
seH ere that they cannot pass from on cell
to another, in order to obtain supply Of
food. IF mild weather interyenes between
''cold snaps as often as once a week, bees
seldom die of cold, but when the Their
mometer ranges below Or near zero for
several weeks in succession, all weak fami-
lies Of bees are in danger of perishing, IN
less well protected from the severity Of the
season. Rural American.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES OF 1857.

The making powers Of Wisconsin
are to assemble at Madison on Wednesday
next; the Monday thereafter IS fixed By
law for eleciing a U. S. senator. The
Republicans will have a majority IN each
branch Of the Legislature; the Governor
being also Of the same political shade, that
party will be responsible for all hunters
and mi5-legislations. The democracy have
long promised that if these ,S1anglsais ever
get into power all the Ssnas will become
laws, including Maine Lawis'n, Know Moth
iugism, Women's Rightsisaas, Land Limita-
tionisna, Judaism, Abolitioniana, and also,
Infdelity, Priestcraft, Popery, Niger
Sovereignty and the like. Nearly every
d0ggery was authorised to deal in such
miserable thunder and rot-gut slang, and
every inebriated victim possessed patent
right to retail! these drugs to all the fools in
the country. This should all be remem-
bered now, and return be made upon the
lying raseals who have so long been the
agents Of a low gang of politicians calling
themselves democrats.

Farmers lay out their work for writer;

calculations have thus far been upset BY
deep snow and ice travel. Many charge
upon the climate the fault Of begetting

their error, as any climate is liable to OK
ceptional health, just as the human eonsti-
tution. Every climate and latitude has
its liable extremes Or exceptions. The
winters of dozen or twenty years ought

Last winter and the present have been ox-
ceptions, or faIurcs-the extremes having
exceeded the extremes of a dozen years

accidental condition Of roads; the difienl-

bles people. The roads are improving ev-
cry day, and no doubt the sleighing will
be excellent in short time.

producing line are low; wheat is below our

REcoyERENG.-The mad man, Picker
ing, whose hard fate we mentioned the
other day, we are pleased to learn, is in
a fair way of recovery. He was taken to
our jail, during his maniacal paroxysms,
and confined, and for several days has re-
ceivad the best Of care from Sheriff Bish-
op, attended, we believe, by the skill of
Dr. A. J. Ward.
Sheriff Bishop informs us that the I'M
fortunate man appears quite rational, ex-
cept when he sees the CRATES, which have
the effect to return the mental paroxysnns.
The cause Of the arrangement, as given by
the man himself, during his lucid intervals,
is about as follows: He had received a
draft from England Che is an emigrant
from that country which he got cashed in
Milwaukee. On returning home, he was
weather-bound for few days at Muscoda,
being unable to cross the river to his home
on account of the ice. He, by some means
conceived the idea that certain suspicious
character was watching him, for the pur-
pose Of robbing him Of his money. This
idea so worried his mind and preyed upon
his nervous system, that he soon fell a vic
tim to the malady. He obtained a pas
sage across the river, at last, and proceed
ed to his home, where meeting his wife,
he threw the bag Of money at her, and
commenced beating her with his boot,
which he had pulled off for the purpose.
He told her that God had commanded him
to kill her, and he should do it. Her
screams however, attracted the attention
of some passers by, who interfercd, and
secured the man, who by this time appear
ed as q raying maniac. He was irnmedi-
alely taken to this city, as before stated

RUMoREp SUICIDE OF Mrs. BRoGD1N.
We learn by gentleman, who came
from Toronto on Saturday, that rumor
was current there, when he left, that Mrs.
Brogdin had committed suicide at Niagara
by cutting her throat. The truth Of the
report is doubted, but such a termination
of the existance Of a woman made misera-
BE by her own folly and wickedness would
not be strange. She deserted her husband
at Port Hope, and with her paramour,
Henderson, came to this city; thence fed
to her mother at Niagara, while Brogdin
pursued the man who had DESTROYED his
peace and shot him, as he would wild
beast. The community and legal tribu-
mails where Brogdin resided aud where the
bloody deed was perpetrated, approved the
act, and acquitted the author blameless. -
Brogdin left his native town, where be
had always resided after acquittal, turned
his back upon all who had conspired to
make him wretched forever, and went
westward. How Mrs. Brogdin could re.
feet alone, for she was Stunned by all, up
on the dreadful consequences she might
have averted-the loss Of husband whc
was true, and a lover who was faIse-the
loss Of all friends, and the esteem Of all as
sociates-and seek relief in the grave or to
be driven to madness, is more than we car
understand. If she has not committed
self-destruetion, or become maniac, it is
likely she viii ere lnng
Mrs. Brogdin and her mother, who i.
the relict Of a British half pay officer, were
residing very quietly in this city about the
time Brogdin was tried for shooting Hen
defson, at least so we were informed at the
time by those who are acquainted will
the parties. Its probable that they came
here to shun the presence Of their neigh
bora at Niagara. Rochester Union, De
