SOUTHERN OPINION OF NORTHERN VALoR.
The following gem from the New Orleans
Crescent expresses the almost universal
opinion entertained in the South of North
ern courage:
A squad of Massachusetts, militia, con-
fronted by an equal number of Mississippi
rihemen, would make better time than ever
Lexington made over the Metarie course.
Massachusetts, pluck and prowess are terri
BILE on paper, but on paper only. The
down.easters of Massachusetts are now
avowing their ability aud their intention OF
whipping the Southerners. to use their own
classic language, "to all darnation." When
it comes to the pinch, they will simmer
down more quickly than the well-known
individual whose call for the man that
struck Billy Patterson was SO promptly and
Unexpectedly answered The South, so il
is threatened, is TO be invaded by an army
of Goldfish aud onion fed warriors from the
State of Maine. At the first fire from
Bragg'sor Beauregard's battery they will
scatter like a parcel of Young chickens
when they see the hungry hawk swooping
down on them from the upper air.

RATHER Low-NECKED.-Th following out
side touch is related by Mrs. Piozzi, in let
ter from Bath, in 1918, when the fashions
of ladies' dresses exposed "a considerable"
of the nude, and Talleyrand said of f. SIS
robe "BlIe commence trop tGrd ct 6nit trop
TOT. She writes: "a genteel young cler-
gyman in our upper crescent, told his man.
ma, about ten days ago, that he had lost his
heart to pretty Miss Prideaux, and that he
must absolutely marry her or die. The
mother gravely replied, my dear, you have
not been acquainted with the lady above a
fortnight; let me recommend you to zee
more of her, More Of herl' exclaimed the
lad, why I've seen down to the fifth rib on
each eide already!' The letter.writer adds
u joke of her own, that our British bellies
outstrip those Of any other nation.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-06-06

The ITALIAN HOTEYBEE.-The most desir-
able way to obtain knowledge OF anything
in animated nature, is by actual observa-
tiou. This is not always practicable, but
by faithful descriptions the deficiency can
be supplied. / shall endeavor In concise
and explicit manner, to describe the Italian
honey bee, and show clearly its peculiari-
ties. The body ds covered with light brown
rings the upper abdominal rings are vel.
low in about 0ne-eighth proportion to the
body, the wings are more deeply fringed
with hair than TIE common bee. The drones
differ from the workers, in having the up
per half Of their abdominal rings black, and
the lower half an Ochry yellow, thus caus-
ing the abdomen, when viewed from above,
to appear annulated The queen differs
from the common kind chiefly 10 the great
or brightness and brilliancy of her colors.
The workers. drones and quecna. are a lit
tie larger than the common variety. They
are milder in their disposition. This is not
a new tangled notion to advance their sale,
for it was mentioned by high authority
eighteen hundred years ago. The superior
industry and quickness of motion was also
observed at that early period. 1t has been
widely circulated by advertisement in this
country, that "they will not sting" which
isfalse.
will e0deavor to sum up briefly: Greater
industry-greater endurance-resst cold
better. These qualities are most observable
during the buckwbeat harvest, and in au-
tumn. when fogs chilly mornings, and high
winds seriously interfere with the labors Of
the cemmen bee. More inclined to rob.
and their individual strength being greater,
they generally succeed in attacking a COM
mon hive.
Italian queens are more prolific. The
graceful shape and beautiful color Of the
worker causes almost every one to take an
interest in them at first sight. II Is thought
by high authority, DR.. Kirkland, that they
will prove valuable acquisition to local
tiles of high latitude, and will be peculiarly
adapted to the climate of Washington Ter
ritory. Oregon, and the mountainous re-
gions Of California.-[Country Gentleman.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-06-06

WAR is BUsNEss.-The exploits of Gen.
Buffers men in repairing engines, relaying
rails, and fixing up broken bridges, seems
to have gained them great eclat. But they
merely illustrate The peculiar qualities Of
modern seldiery. 1t is not enough now that
troops be brave aad daring; they must have
varied skill aud business aptitude. War has
become a business demanding capital,
forethought, sagacity and endurance-and
the business races excel at 1t. The Austri-
ans in the Italian war showed admirable
bravery, but the superior organizing tact
of the French drove them out of Lombardy.
So probably the English would prove more
than match for the French in long cam
paign. Just so--even If the numbers were
equal-the trained business soldiers of the
North would aAd will overcome the troops
of the South, made up of aristocratic first
family scions, unused TO skilled labor of any
kind, aud OF "p0or whites" accustomed only
to the labor of getting living, and show
ing no skill at that How can these men
carry on simultaneously the thousand and
one things which are necessary to the Wig
0rous prosecution of modern campaign!I
They will fail In war just as they do in the
great enterprises of peace-as they do in
building up mercantile marts, extensive
manufactures, great thoroughares, literary
scientific and artistic excellence, aud. in
short, communities rich, thriving aud pow
erful.
