Bees which, when wild, make their nests
IN places totally dark, as i'll the hollows of
trees, are in the habit, when dcmesticated,
of closiug~every aperature that can admit
the ght into their hives, and Will enly ear
ry on their work in a dark place. Scheib-
Ter has just made an extraordinary disccv-
cry, which, while explaining in beautiful
saanRcr this characteristic of the bee, adds
another to the many striking exemplifcations
Of that inscrutinable power of instinct which
50 often transcends reason itself. Scheibler
found that clear strained honey, which, kept
in the dark remained unchanged, when ex-
posed to light gradually became crystalline
and sofdiGed, undergoing, through the inhu-
ence of the light, some molecular change
similar to that impressed upon the iodide
of silver of the daguerreotype plate. The
bee, therefore, in order to preserve in the
fluid form the nutriment it stores up for its
progeny, shuts it up in total darkness.
