Cause Of Rees Not swarning.

~. s., A correspondent Of the Ru-
raj World, says:
A correspondent in a late No. of the
Rural WOrLd wishes to know why
bees have not sWarmed this season?
It would be difficult to give all the
reasons, but the main one is, they
have laidupnO stores; the first bloom
was all lost to them, from frost, sleet
and -tempestuOus weather since,
there has not been any honey dew
and but little honey in the flowers
since the hot weather set in, the bees
have not worked but laid around the
hive and eat what little honey was
made before the hot and dry weather.
At swarming time the movable comb
hives were about half full of honey;
after the dry weather set in, the bees
commenced killing ofthe drones and
uncapaing the cells, and eat all
the honey; now they r making q
little honey, and, if the fall should be
favorable, q suficiency may be made
to sustain them during the winter
they cannot make much surplus honey
for the bee-keeper.

Characteristics ola Good Tree.

From Prest. Wldey's address atthe IIm Session
Of tie american Pathological Secicty.
Ever since the formation Of this
Society, we have been discussing the
best varieties of fruit; butwe have new
er settled what constitutes a good var
iety. Let us give a moment to the
consideration of the question. EhGt
are the chdr0ctistics Of q good fruit,
and aOhdt IS their relative importance 2
I think we shall all agree that, to
be desirable for general cultivation, a
tree must possess, first, health, or
freedom from constitutional disease
second, hardness, or the power of re-
sisting the extremes of heat, cold, and
drouth third fertility or productive
ness of fruit; fourth, persistency of
fruit, or power of adhering to the tree;
fifth, vigor Of growth, or productive
ness of wood. Sirth, persistencey of
foliage; and, seventh, a good habit of
growth; and that those which unite
these charactistics in the highest de-
gree will be the most valuable. They
are arronged in what is deemed the
order Of their relative value, though
it is not easy to do this where they
are mutually interviewer, and where
all are necessary to some extent.
Health and hardness are closely de-
pendent upon each other. A diseased
tree will be sooneriniured or destroyed
in an uncOngenial climate than a
healthy one; and, on the other hand,
a tree cannot long remain health when
injursd by heat or cold; but healthy is
placed first, because it is a universal
characteristic: that is, q tree may be
tenderin oneplace, and perfectly hardy
and ofthe greatest value in another
while a variety -cOnstitUtiOnaHy dis
easedi is valuable nowhere.
e A good constitution for a tree is as
essential q s a good constitution for a
man. AcclimatiOn of a tender tree or
plant is impossible. He who embraces
this fallacy is like one building his
house upon the sand, which will soon
er or later be swept away by the
vicissitudes Of climate. The million
cannot be educated to extraordinary
care; therefore a primary object in
the selection Of a fruit-tree should be
entire hardness for the locality in
is to be planted. Such sub
ject, although not itself producing the
best fruit, will farnish the foundation
upon which we may graft finer sorts,
and thus render them Durable
Like the oak that has braved the blast,
All b better for the trial"
Closely connected with hardness is
adaptation TO soM A variety which
easily accommodates itself to n soil,
is Of far greater value than one which
is difficult in its choice, and therefore
confined within narrow limits.

DEDICATION AT CAAERoN.-Last Sab
bath was day which will long be re-
membered in the history OF our neigh
boring town, Cameron. The dedication
of the new Presbyterian Church took
place on that day. The congregation
was organized about a year ago, under
the guidance Of Rev. Graham, and the
organization was successfully continu-
ed afterwards by Rev. d. n. Layerty,
of Bellaire. In the short space OF one
year, the little congregation had rapid
~ increased, and now they are able TO
worship in most elegant little brick
church. which greatly adds to the ap-
pearance of the town. An immense
congregation was assembled at lO1<
o'clock, and the service was opened by
most efficient choir, with the aid of a
magnificent organ from E. A. weber,s
Music Store. Prof. Weber presided at
the instrument and we must saw that
That We never heard better music. The
singing Of Miss Mary Watt, of Willard
Seminary, Bellaire, was especially de.
ightfal. Rev. Laverty delivered an
eloquent dedication sermon wb,o,,
aroused the deepest emotion among the
audience. Few eyes remained dr. ~
his touching illusions. In the pf,ar.
noon, another large audience iistenad
to a beautiful sermon by Rev. Graham
and in the evening, Rev. Laverty again
addressed a very large assembly ir
eloquent strains.
May the work so earnestly begun
continue to prosper and confer lastinI
benefit upon that community.

HURT.-Yesterday afternoon about 4
O'Clock, Mr.. Samuel whitesides, a
mailer in the Belmont Iron Works, met
with an accident which came near
proving fatal. AS Mr.. w. was passing
along the Market street front OF the
Mcclure House, brick which Is sup
posed to have been loosened from its
moorinGs in the cornice of the building
by the rope sustaining the flag put up
by the conservatives, fell to the pave
ment, atriking him glancing blow on
the forehead. The force of its fall was
broken considerably by striking the
stIT rim of the hat which Mr.. w. was
wearing, else the consequences would
have been much more serious. As 1t
was, a frightful cash, three inches in
length, was cut In the scalp. The un-
fortunate man was conveyed to the Of
fice of DR.. R. Il. Cummins, where the
wound was properly dressed. After
treatment, Mr.. w. was able to proceed
unasslsted 10 his residence in Centre

CRUEL TREATMENT OF MISSION
ARY.-We learn from the columns of
the Pittsburgh Christian Advocate, that
the Rev. j. NJ. Thoburn, for many
years a successful missionary in India,
was recently the victim of Ia cowardly
and unprovoked attack at the hands of
the natives in the district where he
is located. 1t appears there had
been considerable feeling both among
the Mahommedans and Hindoos, in re-
ference to the native Christians using
water from the wells, the former claim
ing that it was thus defled. Not long
since, in the Moradabad district, of
which he Is presiding Elder, having
gone out a short distance from the vii
lage with tho design Of quieting
an excited crowd at the wells,
he was set upon. maltreated
and bruised by the crowd, and
the ring leaders did not scruple to
drag him about by his beard. A ma
tive jury was then empanelled to try
him, and while this farce was going on
he was three times dragged out TO be
hung, each time by his beard. This
serious ending was however prevented,
and the jury finally ordered him TO be
released. Fortunately he escapde with
out great bodily hurt though he was
much bruised. While the many friends
of Mr.. Thoburn in this region where
he is SO widely known will be panied
to learn of this occurrence, they will
yet rejoice with us that it ended with
out the sacrifice of a life so valuable to
the mission work in India.
