A BEE SToRY.-General divers experience
of bee sagacity is related by the Boston Tray
eller: MANY years ago he was an amateur bee
keeper, and was great faYorte with those wise
little creatures, as with his own kind as well.
He kept a hive or two in his own garden at
Salem-which, as everybody knows, is full of
gardens-and took great delight in communng
with his garden friends, being on tue most init
mate terms with them. One day, after remov-
ing small swarm TO a new place in his garden,
he went down town TO the reading room, and
while standing near an open window, was sud-
denly accosted by honey bee which seemed to
know him and TO have something of importance
TO communicate to him. But it did not occur
TO him that this visit had any particular sig-
ni6cance, and so, after looking over the papers
awhile he went about his business entering on
his way another public room; where, to his sur
prise, he was followed by the same bee, or an
other very anxious TO gain his attention. AT
length it occurred to him that this might be one
of his own bees, which had been sent to apprise
him of trouble in his garden. He accordingly
returned Immediately home to find his sus-
picioBs fully verified. The little new swarm had
been attacked by a larger swarm, which was
then In the act of robbing the hive of all its
treasured honey and the bees which the gen.

UNION PRAYER BooKs.-Before the Begin
ming of the Sunday morning service, at EN-
manuel church, 57th street, New York, Rev.
George L. Thrall, rector, stated that for nearly
three years a revised prayer book had been in
course of preparation by number Of divines,
both in this country and in England, with the
intent to exclude from it those passages which
had given rise to controversy and contention in
the church, and to so frame the work as to
make it acceptable to Christians of all denomi-
nations who desired liturgy. This work, after
much consultation and labor, has just been
issued, and the rector stated that he had re-
ceived a unanimous request from his vestry to
conduct services hereafter according to the
union prayer book. Having concluded to yield
to this request, he had sent in his resignation to
Bishop Potter as Presbyter of the diocese, which
left him free to use the new ritual as desired.
At the conclusion of these remarks, copies of
the union prayer book were distributed among
the congregation, and the services proceeded
according TO the revised ritual. The coDgrega
ton seemed pleased with the changes made in
the old form, and responded with great hearth
ness. AS far as could be seen, not one was dis
satisfied with the action of the vestry and
rector. At the close of the sermon, Rev. Mason
Gallagher stated that he heartily endorsed the
new prayer book, and was glad at last it had
made its appearance, tending, as he believed it
would, to bring Christian people of different
names more closely together.

Experiments have for some years past been
made near London with the purpose of testing
the value of the sewage Of that city as fer
tilizer, and the practicablity ofturnng it to ac-
count with advantage to the crops and without
inconvenience or injury to the people living
near. The Lodge farm has been the scene Of
some Of these experiments. Mr.. Mech, the
famous scientific farmer, has lately visited il,
and reports its condition to he very favorable.
All the crops were in fine condition, especially
wheat Of which three successive crops have
been grown on the same land. Mr.. Mechi saws
that, even In hot weather, the sewage is no more
offensive than the ordinary manure, applied in
the usual way. The stream IL made to msSpdel

TO that city, says:
ave have practical joker here-one Mr..
Jo Sommers, sporting man, originally
from Baltimore Sommers is educated, and
dresses fashionably, and but few, on looking
at him. would believe him to be a gambler
When Mr. Greeley jumped from the hack, 10.
met him at the entrance Of the hotel and ex-
tended his hand, saying How do you do, Mr.
Greeley? am very happy to extend the
right hand of fellowship to so renowned gen.
tleman as yourself, and, as one Of the citizens
of this great metropolis of the South, extend
to you, sir, the freedom Of our city, aud the
honest goodwill of our citizens. Sir, allow
me to introduce to your notice two estimable
gentlemen, Colonel Star, of Mississippi, and Dir.
William johnson, one Of our leading bankers.
Star and johnson are both gamblers, and the
sudden introduction somewhat unnamed
them, and they slid out of sight as soon as
possible. OF course Mr.. Greeley did not IN
derstand the joke, but the lookers-on did, and
enjoyed it hugely"

Divorce In our grandfathers' days" is
thus described by the Fairfax Ne,cs; There
is an old man in this neighborhood who has
passed his Z" three score and ten" who tells Of
divorce case that occurred in this town when
he was young man. He says man and
wife came into the village and applied to a
lawyer to procure them divorce, stating that
they had tired Of each others Society and de-
sired to separate. After some prelimiparics,
during which time fee Of ten dollars was paid
to the lawyer, the three walked into the road,
when the lawyer commanded the unhappy
couple to place themselves back TO back
Then stating 10 them that In consideration Of
ten dollars paid to him in hand he authorized
them to separate, with instructions that each
should continue to walk in opposite directions
and never return. The old man says he saw
the transaction himself, but forgcts the law
yers name.
