The Spectator, paper published in Hamilton,
Canada, says they had lively time with a swarm
of bees on a train at Princeton Il few days ago.
Some one had freghted the bees, and when the
train stopped at the above-named place. il was
discovered that the wire gauze placed over the
entrance of the hive to allow the bees air, and
at the same time to prevent their escaping, had
become somewhat displaced. The bees had
made the discovery first, and resolved to
Swarm, and make the rest OF the journey (to
some Western station, whittier they were being
sen) in their own way. They did swarm, too,
and about the ears of officials, who for some time
made Intellectual efforts to induce the saucy little
creatures to go back into the hive, and be good.
dozen or more passengers, who ran to the spot
to learn the excitement, got their eyes bunged
up us theprice for their curiosity. But all did feel
sorry for one bright, blue-eyed beauty, whose
nose suddenly assumed alarming proportions.
The train started on, and the refractory little
creatures who had refused TO return TO the hive
were observed on the winga few rods behind the
train, doing their best to keep up, generally
coming in, as the train stopped at different sta
tiOns, in time to sting the brakeman.

Washington correspondent OF the Cincn-
matt Gazette is one of the few fortunate men who
can telictate themselves in having an ''insidc
view of Grants policy. He has come to the
conclusion that the President desires full and
lasting peace. To the propositions that our
Government should seize Canada, Cuba. and
MEXICO, the correspondent makes this re-
sponse:-
To all these the administration has but one
answer-Let us have peace. To those who want
Lower California and the right of way through
Mexico; to those who want Cuba and San Do
mingo; to those who want Canada and n war
with England, the President says by his actions
at least: Gentlemen, the nation needs rest. 1t
has had war enough. The reconstruction of the
South is a gigantic task. The national expenses
were plunging us into bankruptcy; we must
have time to institute strict economy and get
the Government organized again upon this new
basis Of expenditure. The national debt must
be diminished: we cannot increase it and answer
to the people for it. Our policy with all foreign
nations must be peace unless they insult us, and
then of course il will be war. But they must be
the aggressors Annexation, North or South,
must wait on reconstruction on the institution
of economical measures of government; on the
reduction OF our debt; on the solution of the
Indian problem, whichiinvolves all the interests
OF 1Tr Great West, and the condition of the
National Treasury as well. Let us withdraw
our eyes from all other lands and work together
earnestly to repair the countless breaches of the
war, and develop the empire we have, before
accepting the burdens which the acquisition Of
more will bring.

The progress of the local money market has been
steady for the last six weeks in the direction OF per-
feet ease and IL is gratifying TO notice continuance
OF the same favorable feature The statement OF the
past week. transactions Is very satisfactory, show
ing an Increase in legal tenders of s397 939 and in de-
poss OF SOL O23, but for the first time notice
falling Off in the loans Of Sl50,S9O compared with the
previous week. This latter feature reflects the
apathy In trade circles at the same time indicating
the plethOriC condition OF the market
AZ no time during the past SIX weeks have the
loans kept even pace with the deposits, and the posi-
tive decrease the past week Is very significant and
we do not how the rates now ruling for loans and
discounts can be sustained. These rates, as we no.
ticed yesterday, have been very fuctuating during
the past two weeks but we do not feel justified in
changing our former quotations.
Government stocks are quite dull, but prices have
advanced since the opehng. Gold Is quite irm, the
market opening at 1881, and at II NJ. sales were
made at 1885,.
The stock speculation for rise still continues and
prices at the opening in advance of the closing
quotations last evening. Nothing was done in State
loans. City 6s sold at 100 for the new issues inter
est OF. Lehgh gold loan sold at 90sS.
Reading Railroad was quiet but higher, selling at

Curious Societies in Paris.

NJ Lopedier. French feuiletonist has writ
ten pamphlet on the secret societies of Paris
which is reported to have created a great sensa-
tion, which it well might, if his stories are to
be accepted as true. Some of them are decidedly
lacking in credibility For instance, he says
there is an association called the Society OF the
Trous Judas" which must be the meanest in
existence. A Trous Judas is n hole bored through
Il door for the purpose of watching people
within the room, and it is said that an immense
number of people provide themselves with gm-
lets for this purpose. The Society TroIs Judas
is wealthy and has an alliance with lodging
house keepers At their meetings those who
have interesting reports read them. This pre-
cious union has twice had serious trouble with
the police, who watch them closely. Another
club is composed OF cultivated and aristocratic
people, who actually believe that they meet
while asleep in dreams, or some equally mystic
riOus manner, but in distant lands and wonder
tul scenes One OF them told the author that
he met their chief, who is countess. in the
moon the night before, and when urged to
describe that locality for the benefit of science,
replied that mankind are not yet morally pre-
pared for an accurate knowledge of the moon

Pennsylvania, according TO the Boston Tran
script, is not the only State that has had to deal
with a corrupt Legislature. As will be seen by
this editorial extract from that paper, Massachu-
sets is, in this respect, no better off than her
neighbors;-
The Legislature has now been in session five
months, and il is a remarkable fact that nearly
all the important measures are TO be acted on.
The liquor law is apparently no nearer fnality
than il was two months ago. But what is re-
markablc is that the measures SO important
to the business community have scarcely been
discussed at all. There has been plenty of talk
about cider and lager beer and the marchings
and cOuntermarchings on the novel subject of
prohibition have all along excited the mirth or
moved the indignation of the public, and the
tremendous efforts OF the smelling committee to
find out whether past Legislatures have been
entirely pure, have been eXhausting to
But any great measures for developing
the resources of the Commonwealth in order
10 diminish the rate of taXation-any efforts for
substantial economy in the eXpenditures-any
serious endeavOr to cheaper transportation in
order to compete with other places-as to all
these there has really been nothing accom-
plisbed: and if anything is to be proposed, 1t
will be in the hurry OF the close ol the session,
