There is no greater pest to the horticultur-
ist than the curculio. The growers of fruit,
especially the plum, are just beginning in
some places to find out that he is the real
agent which causes all the fruit to drop Of
when partly grown. They have hitherto ig-
norantly attributed this event to blight, to
something unfriendly TO the soil, or to other
occult causes which battle all efforts for pre-
vention, as they elude oil discovery. But
the calamity is owing simply to the insect
named the curculio, which, at the first ap-
pearance Of the germ, makes puncture in
II, where it deposits an egg to PerPetuate
his species. We saw about the first Of July
last q country garden filed with choice fruit
trees but unhappily maturing little fruit.
The plum trees in special manner were lit
orally loaded down almost to breaking with
green plums Of nearly the natures size. But
suddenly, in day, as il were, as If struck BY
malignant poison, they began to rot and
fall to the ground, till in Q week or two after
not single plum remained upon the limbs.
There they hung in clusters like grapes on
one day, and in less than week perhaps sue
ceeding not trace was left to tell what sort
Of fruit the barrea branches bore, or whether
they ever bore at all. t.a
VIII farmers tamely submit to the inya-
sion of this injurious but still contemplate
inscct2 If they do not rouse themselves to
some pans Of determination, at least for the
prevention of his wholesale depredations,
they had better cut down their trees at once;
for, if things are to 60 on as now, they only
eumber the ground. Naturalists have dis.
covered and taught how several Of our insect
enemies may be met and conquered. They
may extend their conquests further with
the help Of the experiments Of the practial
horticulturist. Cultivation has the effect Of
introducing into our fields and orchards
many new foes TO fruits and We etables; and
since human industry has been thereby in.
strumental in bringing upon US evils 10 a
certain extent human ingenuity ought in jus.
tice to be on the alert to combat them with
the weapons put into our hands BY It's pow.
erfal science.

receive with any degree Of favor is the nova
bic comb hive of Mr.. Lanstroth, who has
written a valuable work on bees, that no
apiarian can afford to dispense with. And
though believe that his hive may be Of
advantage in the hands of large and skilfHl
operators, yet for general use, Mr.. Quinby's
(which is but slight modification of the
old plan) must ever take the precedence for
these reasons; That it is much more simple,
requiring a hive far cheaper and less COM
plicated, and affords equal facilities for the
collection Of surplus honey-oue Of the i'm
portant desiderata inall systems. But to my
question, as fear ! have already trespassed
too far upon your time and space. On the
25th of June last, one of my best hives sent
out first swarm, and as there was on abun-
dance of bees left, confidently expected o
second swarm, but was doomed to disappOint-
ment, as the proper time passed without any
indications of further swarming. On the
18th day from the issuing of the first swarm,
took queen cell from an adjacent hive that
knew must contain q matured queen, and on
opening the cell allowed her majesty to walk
into the hive in question.
My object in this experiment was to see if
| could induce second swarm; hence watch
ed it with some anxiety, butcould discover no
change in the domestic affairs of the little
colony until the sixth day after the introduc-
ton Of the new queen, when fine swarm
made its appearance, followed by no other
swarms. Thus "a days intervened between
the issuing of the first and second swarms.
Now what have yet to learn and desire to
know, is simply whether the introduction of
the stranger queen had anything to do with
the appearance of the second swarm, and II
not, how is it to be accounted for under the
circumstances lam unable to give any sat-
isfactOry solution of the question, except on
the ground that the second swarm was the
result solely of my adding the new queen, and
this point may perhaps bc decided by the ex.
periencc Of others; and if the experience Of
every one is at variance with mine, trust that
some Of your apiarian readers will be kind
enough to communicate through your columns,
their views Of this singular phenOmenon-and
] would be especially gra.iied to see the yer.
sion of your correspondent, Mr.. Quinby.

lIanaEemsnt OF Bses-Query.

On this subject writer in a late number
Of the COSniry Gentleman, after eulogizing
that truly valuable Journal, says;
Il is my present purpose to PROFOUND a
question to apiarians, the answer to which
may interest others as well as myself.
And first, let me give you an account Of
my success land to whom owe that success)
in this humble department Of rural economy,
Some three years since, was in profound
ignorance of even the elementary principles
Of apiarian science, and as an evidence of
the crudeness Of my notions, would mention
that even supposed that bees like ants
existed in torpid state during winter, to be
warmed into life with the swelling buds of
spring.
At that time fortunately became possessed
Of copy of Quinby's "Mysteries of Bee
keeping Explained, /" and was SO charmed with
the work, that at once resolved to test its
merits by my own experience. In accordance
with this resolution, purchased two swarms
Of bees, and with no other guide than the
book, which followed to the letter to the

went to work in earnest I had an excellent
screw for removing bullets, and my pistol barrels
were emptied in a very few minutes. had q
very serious objection to firing them of in the
woods, where the report might bctray the knowl-
edge ! had gained. So I empticd them, and
snapped cap upon each. I found them both
clear, and then proceeded to load them, which I
did carefully. And now how should proceed :
That this road would lead me to Fosters Mills I
had no doubt; and It would be nearer for me 10
keep on than to turn back. So upon that point
my mind was made up. And next-which way
would my host Gomez For that he meant to rob
me ! felt certain. Would he 60 down the river
piece and head me Of, or would he follow me
directly up3 Most likely the former Iconsid-
cred il awhile, and then resolved to push on and
keep on my guard. The sun went down, and Il
grew dark in the deep wood; but the moon was
already up, and as her beams fell lengthwise upon
the road, she gave me considerable light when my
eyes had become used to the transition. Half an
hour had passed since looked to my pistols, and
just as began to wonder Il I had been mistaken,
heard the sound Of horses tramp at no great
distance AT hrstt puzzled me to tell the direc-
ton from which it came; but in a moment knew
itvasin advance Of me, and upon my right hand,
which was turned towards the river. Presently
il stopped. drew my horse to the LEFT side Of
the path and kept on q gentle trot, having raised
tne appel o. my right holster. In a few mo-
ments saw dark form among the bushes,
Iaa..
little way ahead on the right. As I came up, .
man rode out TWAS my hostl
"GOOd evening sir" he said, with exceeding
pOliteness. q
I "Ahl good evening, ] returned. "Ihad not
expected the pleasure Of your company" 4a
| No expect not" he resumed, ina sort Of
hesitating manner. And l shouldn't have come
out only for little business forgot when you
were at the inn," # 81
II was plain as DAY. NY pistols had been rem
dered useless; had been sent on into this un-
nequented wood, and now the villain bad thought
to take my lie and my money without any risk
to his own body, and then hide my poor carcass
in the earth, where, very likely, others had been
hidden before. Myeyes were open, and my hand
ready. hie M % lla 20
