The DITFERENcE-The Democracy say,
restore the Union, support the COnstitu-
ton, obey the laws and be just to all Sec
tons. AbolitiOnists cry, Destroy slave
ry." To Democrats the government that
made the nation and protects 100000
Of white people is Of infinitely more con-
sequence than the crude theories Of the
AbolitiOnists for the imagined benefit o.
4,000,00 black men-theorieS of men
who have no practical knowledge Of the
people whose welfare they seek to pro-
mote. The difference between the two
parties is marked, easily understood and Of
character worthy of serious conSidera-
ton. In a short time the people will be
called upon to choose between them, and
on their choice depends the perpetuity or
destruction of the Union.
.
IT is conceded fact that the history Of
the Republican party is being written in
rum. Before 1t came into poweS our
country was prosperous, united and
grandly moving on to greatness. In what
single thing that we value are we now as
secure as we were before the election OF
Lincoln ?-before the triumph OF the Sec
tional fanatics who administer the Gov.
ernment? Will some friend of the Ad.
ministration point to oneY Will he show
Us when, where and how it pursued a
"wise, efficient and conservative policy" ?
Its friends say it has done so, and if it
has they can easily furnish the proof and
the proof is what the people demand
They will not be satisfied or convinced by

Large Deposit Of Honey.

A somewhat singular discovery was
made in house in ST. Louis. The ArglLS
gave the following account of the story:
The inmates Of one of our largest up
town mansion houses, a few days since,
were surprised to find large number of
bees flying about in two Of the upper
rooms. AS the little fellows continued
TO occupy the places, bee naturalist was
sent TO investigate. On entering the
rooms, lac exclaimed You have honey
somewhere here" and proceeded 70 search
for it. On removing the fire. board, he
discovered that one flue Of the chimney
was full Of honey comb, which was
hanging down into the fire place, and the
honey dropping from it, proceeding to
the top Of the house TO sound the CHM
ney, he found it the same one flue Of the
chimney was full, and the bees were in
dustriously az work there also.
These ilues of the chimney had never
been used; they were plastercd smooth
inside, and were perfectly dark, stone
having been placed on She top Of each
ilue. The bees had descended the adj
joining ilucs and found small holes about
ten inches from the top Of the chimney,
leading into the closed lues, and through
these holes they had made their way in
and out. They have, as is supposed,
occupied these places for three years,
having been kept warm in winter by the
heat from the adjoining iues, On re-
moving the fire board, the bees, seeing
the great light which had broken in upon
them, descended TO the room and gather
ed on the windows, until they were COW
cred to the tickness Of three inches. IL
is estimated that there are in the two
ilues from 10000 to 10000 bees, and from
1000 % 1000 pnnnds Of homeY.

"When your camp is in the neighbor-
hood of his house he sends you presents
of peaches, pies, and worm eaten apples.
He cultivates your acquaintance and al
lows his slaves to sell yon milk, and then
in little while he puts in his bill for all
his presents, and asks you mOnstrous
price; and when he charges you with
gallons of milk where you had quarts, he
coolly assumes that you shall pay for all
he sends by his negro, and not for the
moiety which you receive. And then,
when you tell him to go where he is not
due until he departs this life, he comes
down several pegs and calls it a misun-
derstanding.

HIS HOSPITALITY.

"You ride up, hungry as a wolf, to his
gate There is no tavern for miles. He
informs you with princely and baroni-
al air, that he has entertained thousands
and never took picayune from any
man; that no one was ever turned from
his door, and says, Gentlemen, won't
you alightY You go in, he gives you
good coffee, greasy ham and water logged
potatoes, (he is usually just out Of but
ter aAd when, like northern mudsill,
you offer him pay, he says: "No sir; |
can always give a gentleman meal
without pay; that's for the women or
niggers; | never take no pay myself"
And so you pay the women or niggers
double price for poor meal, and he takes
the money away from them as quick as
your back is turned.
HOW HE DEALS IN FORAGE.
"You pitch your camp in his neighbor-
hood. He has a straw stack, half this
ties and the rest weeds. You are in a
hurry, and the quartermastor is busy !;
he wont sell anything, and you take
what you want, he suggesting that as
the easiest course, and talking good ma
turedly while your men so of with the
straw. The next day he goes to BalG-
more, tells his own story TO General
Wool, and you get a reprimand for pi Ia
ging. Consequence is, our Maryland
farmer gets twenty dollars a ton for four
times as much straw as he ever had.
This he thinks better for him than hon
est weight"
