EXTRACT FROM UNITED STATES COAST

NANT-COMAIANDISG ALMY:
No one can look at the chart Of the lower part Of
York river from the entrance up TO Yorktown with
out pronouncing 1t harbor of the rst-class There
Is bar at the mouth OF the river and the least
ter to be passed In entering 1t is thirtythree
feet at low tide, the tail at York Spit, in the
Chesapeake bay After passing this the water deep
ems to six, seven, and eight fathoms, increasing
passing up the channel to eleven and twelve fathoms,
abreast of Yorktown, where the shore Is very bold,
and wharves carried out distance Of fifty feet would
strike four and half and five fathoms Of water,
The channel of the river Is more than mile In
width, and with few buoys and beacons judciously
placed the heaviest incohattle ship could beat up
or down the river without the least difficulty. York
town is situated about thirty nautical miles from the
entrance of the river into Chesapeake bay. The To-
cation is elevated and could be easily fortified at
moderate expense, against attack either by land or
water. 1t affords harhor sufficient for the Target
navy and commercial marine, and next to Newport,
Rhode Island, 1T is, In my Judgment, the eafest aud
most commoGious har5or IN the United Sta.es.

Whether lis nobl--"

or 1lapjacks?"
"Flanjacks, an it please thee, Anne, or a
pudding, for that matter; or what thou wilt,
good woman, so thou come not betWiXt me
and my thought"
Exit Mistress Anne, with strongly-accented
closing of the door, and murlnurs to the
effect: DAY, marry; t is we'll for thee to talk
as if thou hadst no stomach to fill. We poor
wives must swink FOR our masters while they
sit in their arn-chails, growing as great in
the srth through laziness as that ill-mannered
old fat man William hath writ of in his book
OF players stuff. One had rs well meddle
with porkpen, which hath thorns all over
him, as try to deal with William when his
eyes be rolling in that mad way"
withdrawing once more-after an
exclamation in strong English of the old
pattern:
Whether It's r--nobcr--nobler-
To Go what? O, these women these women

" Whether It's Iobler-in mind-to suffer

GREAT BEE F1eEr.--Captain Brown, Of this
city, recently robbed three hives, and Dr.
West, neighbor, robbed four. The bees,
thus deprived of the fruits of their labor, be-
came furious, and uniting, making an army
of seven hives. they invaded the premises OF
Mr. Horace Bledsoe and made fierce attacK
on five of his hives. Blcdsoe's bees were taken
by surprise, and, although outnumbered,
fought for their homes with desperation. The
battle lasted several hours, and four of Bled-
soe's hives were literally destroyed. The In
vadars were finally replllsed, after being al
most annihilated. The ground for YARDS
around was black with dead bees. Mr.. Bled,
soc, although serious loser, buried the dead
warriors with the honors Of war. Few OF
the invaders survived the battle, and out OF
five Of the defending hives four were de-
stroyed. 1t was the bloodiest bee battle on
record, and deserves to be handed down TO
posterity.-Jackson (Temn.) Wing.
