To "BEE" OR Nor TO BE IA small
privateer with forty or fifty men, having
on board some hives full of bees, was pur-
sued by Turkish galley, manned by five
hundred seamen and soldiers. As soon as
the latter came alongside, the crew of tho
privateer mounted the rigging with their
hives, and hurled them down ca the deck
of the galley. The Turks, astonished at
this novel mode of warfare, and unable to
defend themselves from the stings of the
enraged bees, became so terrified that they
thought of nothing but how to escape their
fury, while the crew of the small vessel,
defended by masks AMI gloves, few upon
their enemies, sword in hand, and captur-
ed the vessel, almost without resistance.

iicntial chair. If his lisgraceful conduct
was the result of debau6hery, he might
possibly redeem himself, however indel-
BILE the stain he has already inflicted upon
the fame of the people who have loaded
him with honor; but if he was insane,
then there can be no hope, and his re,
moval becomes an imperious duty. But
we submit that, in either case, he should
'vacate his position. If he has given dis
play of drunkenness on an occasion of all
others calculated to wound and humiliate
the National hear aud pride, there can be
but one atnnement for it, and that is his
voluntary retirement; and if mental alb
CREATIONS have fallen to his lot, and his
reason totters when most needed in the

The Springfield massachusetts, Repub-
Hcaa of the 18th inst, one of the leading
Republican papers of this country, refers
to Jnhnson 10 the following language:
at would have been thought that after
the exhibition which Mr. Vice President
johnson made of himself on Inauguration
day, be woul be more careful of him self
in public We are informed, however,
upon private but entirely credible authori-
ty, that the Vice President was so far stu
pifed with liquor at the Inauguration ball
that some of his friends were obliged to
carry him home. We would gladly dis
believe this, but the source from which
it canes leaves no room for doubt

WHAT is AN LNOH OF RlIN?-The
late weekly return of the British Regis
ira General gives the following interest
ing iafrmstion in respect to rainfall
Ruin fell in London to the amount Of
forty-three inches, which is equivalent to
forty. three tons of rain per acre, The
rain fell during last week, varied from
thirty tuns per acre in E linburg, to two
hundred and fifteen tuus per acre In Glas-
gov. An English acre consists of $751;
$50 square inches aud an inch deep of
rain on an acre yields 6,272,240 cubic
inches of water, which, at 277, PA cubic
inches to the gallon, mikes 22,622 gal.
Ions; and as gallon of distilled water
weighs ten pounds, the rainfall on an acre
is 226,2 25 pounds avoirdupois but 2, 240
pounds are ton, and consequently, an
inch deep of rain weighs 100,993 tons, or
nearly one hundred and one tons per acre.
For every one hundrelth of an inch ton
of water falls per acre. If any agricu!-
turist were to try the experiment of dis
tributing artifcially that which Nature SO
bountifutly supplies, he would soon feel
inclined to crest an be thankful."

D'Orsay Ogden by military court martial,
a short time since, has been RENTED in
consequence of the precarious state OF
his health. He was sent to Camp Lee
on Saturday for consignment, but during
the day obtained a limited leave Of az 10.
sencc to visit the city, and was in at
tendance at the theatre that night: In
the opinion of Mr.. Ogden's physician,
he was not able to conform to the st'pu'
lations of the finding of the court mar
tial in his case, and the authorities,
therefore, thought it better that he should
perform service elsewhere than remain as
an inmate of the hospital.
