A Lively FREIGHr-The Spectator, pa
per published in Hamilton, Canada, SAYS they
had lively time with swarm OF bees, on a
train at Princeton few days ago. Some one
had freighted the bees, and when the train
stopped at the above named place, it was dis
covered 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 Ito
some western station whittier they were being

got their eyes bunged up as the price of their
curiosity But all did feel sorry for one bright
little 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 wing few rods behind the
train, doing their best to keep up, generally
coming in, as the train stopped at the different
stations, in time to sting the brakemen.

SINGULAR CAsE.-A correspondent at Burn
ham Depot sends an account Of the remarka-
BILE illness of Randall Sylvester, of Freedom
He was taken strangely sick at seventeen years
of age; has been sick fifteen years; for years
was not able to turn in bed; could not have
one walk with shoes ON in any part Of the
house; he has not been able to speak above a
low whisper, and is a mere skeleton. One
night he dreamed he could make violin and
conceived all parts of it in his mind, although
he had never made or seen one made. After
awhile they got him some limbs in the rough,
and he began his work with knife and few
other tools, such as a small chisel, &c. He
dug It ont with an apple corer. The violin is
a very handsome one, has considerable orna-
ment, such as are made of fresh water clam
shells, and are very beautiful-one would sup
pose them to be of pearl. The violin has nine
ty-two pieces in ALL and appears to be ono
piece until carefully examined. Its tones are
very beautiful-LeaUist0n Journal

WENDELL PHILLIPs wARNED.-If Mr. Wen
dell Phillips proposes now to take the lead in
the labor movement, he is more fortunate than
of old in his anti-Slavery warfare. BE is able
at the outset to find only words oi praise for
the PRESIDENT 1t is scarcely less noteworthy
that he seeks relief from the expressions of
labor rather in the eight-hour law, night
schools, and education up to the point OF coop
Grafton, than in the clumsy and inefficient
system of strikes, If Mr.. Phillips does not
take care, he will get credit for lending his ele
CANT eloquence to the enuncation of very
plain common sense.--N. Z. Tribune.

English Plutocracy has succeeded in making
the largest-hearted, most generous, humane
and sympathetic author of the century almost
a snob by their fiattery and patronage? And
will the pernicious scoundrels make him a

GRANTS CONVERSATION WITH BONNER
Mr. Bonner of the Ledger, has felt called upon
to deny the statements made by that eminent
ly imaginative correspondent, Dom Piatt. Mr..
Bonner says:
The truth is that Gen. Grants talks with me
have been of confidential character, and
whatever he said had no right to repeat-and
of course, would not repeat-to Gen. Piatt or
any one else. The real point of my reply to
Gen. Piatts question was to avoid particular
reference to what Gen. Grant had said to me
on different subjects. He talked horse when
behind Dexter, the same as Gen. Piatt did; but
those who suppose Gen. Grant cannot talk
quite as we'll on other subjects, know very lit
tie about the man.

PLAIN TRUTHs.-It is not often that Bos-
ton paper has the courage to offend local pride
so seriously as the Boston Advertiser did yes
terday in an editorial beginning thus:
There is probably no other city or town in
the country which has, according to its popu-
iation, so much public spirit and downright
business pluck as the city of Portland. Her
citizens are always at work in some scheme OF
public improvement; and while there are
great many among them of remarkable ener-
gy and sagacity, there are few or none dis
posed to stand in the way OF their enterprises.
The Forest City is fortunately saved from that
infiction.
Some fine morning, before some of
our people are awake, another continuous
line from the West, running clear of Boston,
will be landing grain on the wharves in Port
land, to which ships of the largest kind can
come without difficulty.
The same article concludes as follows:
Meanwhile the General Court has been in
session about half year, committees have
been at work, it is said, and great projects are
talked about, but the first practical measure
has not yet been reported. And so we go!-
With plenty of railroads stretching to the
West, with an excellent harbor, and the Com
monwealth in possession of seven hundred
acres of flats which ought to be improved-we
are forced to see even the western flour for our
own consumption brought in a roundabout
way; while our neighbors are working in New
Hampshire, Vermont, and at the West for a
through line which may soon carry passengers
from California to Halifax who Will not eaten
