NOVEL CAPTURE OF WHALEs.-A paper
has just been published in England by Pro
lessor Christison, the result of some expert,
ments suggested so long ago as 1881 by
Messrs. w. & G. Young, of Leith, for the cap
ture OF whales by means OF poison, the agent
being hydrocyanic or prussic acid. The sub
tie poison was contained in glass--tubes, in
quantity about two ounces. Among other diff.
fculties one was to discharge the poison from
the tubes at the right time. After various
trials, the plan fixed upon was to attach firmly
to each side of the harpoOn, near the blade
one end OF strong copper wire, the other end
Of which passed obliquely over the tube there.
by securing it in its place, then through an OBJ
Hque hole in the SHAFT close to the upper end
of the tube, finally to blight in the rope,
where it was firmly secured. By these means
the rope could not be drawn tight, as it would
when the harpoon attached to it struck the
whale without crushing the tubes, the poison
would then enter the whale, and death ensue
The Messrs. Young accordingly sent guam
tity OF tubes charged with the poison by one
OF their ships engaged in the Greenland fish
cry, and on meeting with a fine whale the har-
poon was skilfully aud deeply buried in his
body the leviathan Immediately Sounded"
or diyed perpendicularly downward, but in a
very short time the rope relaxed and the
whale rose TO the surface quite dead but the
men were so appalled, by the terrific effect of
the poisoned harpoon that they declined to use
any more of them.

IMPORTATION OF STINGLEss BEEs.-Mr.
A. o. Moore of this city, who went to Central
America last year on account of his health
has just returned from Guatemala and brought
with him two swarms of stingless bees com
mon to that country, which he has given in
charge to Mr.. Parsons of Flushing, who will
propagate them for the agricultural depart
ment OF the patent office, which will in due
time distribute them if it is found they can
be kept i'll any part of the United States
These bees are of two varieties, one large and
one small, and both quite different in all their
81 ioits from the honey bees common with u.s.
For one thing, there appears to be but
two classes-the workers and queens
The largest class are about the size of
our common bees, the queen being much larg-
er; and while laying eggs appears very clum-
sy, and unable to fly. The honey is depos-
tied in egg shaped capsules, more than half
the size of hens eggs, fastened to plate OF
wax only on one side, and sometimes arranged
quite horizontal in tiers one above another.
The honey is considered peculiarly delicious,
but not stored in as large quantities as with
our bees As these are stingless, they are of
ten kept on the same familiar terms as Paddy's
pig, about the house. The hive most com
monty consists of a hollow log, and that is
hung up in the hut that shelters the family, or
at the door, under tue projecting thatch OF the
root 1t is to be hoped that the experiment of
their introduction will prove successful.

THE TEXAS PLoT-TwENTY-Tw Ne
GRoEs HANGED.-Just as we are going to
press, news has arrived here from Il reliable
source, that twenty-five negroes have been ar
rested and are to be hung in WaXahatchie
to-day. Our fellow citizen, Mr.. III. l.. Cotton
informs us that letter was received by Thurs
days mail, by his niece in This place, from
Mrs. Bennett, of Austin, giving an account
of fearful attempt made about the 22d inst.
to reduce our state capital to a heap of
ashes. The daring experiment was made
to set fire to some twenty-five of the prin.
cipal edifices of the city; fortunately, how
ever, the flames were discovered and ex-
tinguished before any serious damage had
been sustained. On the night previous, the
Austin correspondent to whom we are indcbt.
ed for the intelligence we are recording, had
been keeping vigils over the sick bed of
friend, when she observed 4 sheet of flame
bursting from neighboring house, which, in
consequence of timely warning, the citizens
were enabled to arrest, and save the building
from impending ruin. AT present, says Mrs.
Bennett, the whole population of the nietropo,
lis are under arms, and laborng under the
most intense excitement. police force. con.
sisling of from sixty to ninety men, are main.
tanning the strictest system of vigilance by
night and by day.
The Fort Worth Chief of July rs has the
following On the 18th instant was found the
body of a man by the name of VIM. II. Craw-
ford, suspended from pecan tree about three
quarters OF mile from town. A large num-
Der of persons visited the body during the day.
At a meeting of the citizens the same evening
strong evidence was adduced proving him te
have been an abolitonlst. The meeting en-
dorsed the action of the party who hung him.
Three negro men, the leaders in the late in
surrectionary plot in Dallas, were hung in that
town on the 9th ultmO Vigilance commit
tees have been organized in every hamlet in
Northern Texas, and the people are now fully
prepared for every emergency.

RIOT ON THE GREAT EAsTERN-Quite a
riot took place on board the Great Eastern On
Friday smorning, 10TH in which several of
those connected with the ship were severely
handled. From all the information that can
be obtained it appears that a large number of
persons went down from the city, and there
was complaint that some of the females were
insulted by some of those belonging to the
ship There were then some words but no
blows, but all the indications were that a
fight would take place, and many left the ship.
About half All hour after the first collision of
words a female called upon Washington Good
rick for protection, stating that she had been
insulted, and pointed to the party, who it
seems was one Of the officers of the ship.
Goodrich asked him what he meant by insult
ing ladies', to which an unsatisfactory reply
was made, and which was followed by fight.
Goodrich first struck the man and then butted
him several times. This attracted the atten-
ton of several others belonging to the ship,
and they attempted to protect their officer,
when they too were beaten. The affair was
but of a few minutes duration, though san.
Culinary while it continued. A few minutes
after the above affray another female was in
suited grossly by another Of the ships com
pany, when Mr.. John Lutz, who was standing
near, witnessed it, and knocked the fellow
down and administered to him severe beat
ing. On the ship no particulars could be OBJ
tanned of the affray, and the above is the
information of those who we're present and
witnessed the whole transaction.

it came ont OF garnet window above. They

MERRY FUNERAL.-One of the most extra
ordinary cases is now on trial before one of the
French courts. A certain NJ. c. died, leaving
an express order to his heirs that he should
be buried in church, and a handsome paid to
the priests on condition that 'nobody should
laugh while the service was going on" The
intelligent detunct had observed that underta
kers and priests permitted themselves often to
take hilarious liberties with death, and he was
determined he should be buried with the gray
ity appropriate to the grave. OF course the
odd request got nosed abroad all the village
came to the funeral and everybody keeping
an eye on everybody else to see that nobody
should so much as wink, the natural result
followed tat priest near the coffin was the
first to break down the choir boys, in the
frailty of their youth, followed the fat priest !;
the minor canons, trying to stop the choir
boys, or at least to make them "augh out of
the wrong side of their mouths" caught the
contagon and began to shake their sides the
deacons went off next into full OUTLAW and
finally the cure himself was conquered and
choked in his handkerchief. In short, mer-
rier intermenI was never witnessed. 1t was
the joke of the season. But the heirs, not lik-
ing the sport, have refused to pay the clergy
for their rollicking services, and the case is
now in court where it will doubtless cease 10
be a laughing matter TO anybody but the

GHOST oRY.-Several weeks ago a married
lady residing in the Sandwich Islands, who
had come to this city for her health, and was
boarding at house on California street, awoke
in the night and plainly saw phantom of her
husband, which she supposed to be her living
husband, and in that supposition, called to her
son, boy about twelve years of age, saying,
Henry, here's your father She got up and
advanced toward the figure and it disappeared.
She pinched herself to see whether she was
not asleep, but found herself to he fully awake
The vision disturbed her very much notwith
standing that she had left her husband in Wig
Orous health at Honolulu, few weeks before,
she greatly feared that the vision indicated his
death. When she went down to breakfast in
the morning gentleman boarding in the
same house noticed the marks of weeping and
endeavored to get her into good humor She
told him the cause of her uneasiness, and he
attempted to remove the unhappy impression
from her mind, but failed. She insisted that
her husband must be dead, and that she must
return to Honolulu by the first boat and she
did So A few days after her departure yes
sci arrived from Honolulu with news that her
husband had died. His death, however did
not take place on the day when she saw the
vision but week before.
