FROM FREDERICKSBURG.
June 5th. 1871.

June 5th, 1871.
MEssRs. EDITORS: Owing to multi
plicity of cares, have deferred writing
for some time. We are now having very
pleasant weather. We were visited last
week by frequent rains which were ac-
ceptable, and had the tendency of in
vigorating all vegetation. Corn, oats
and wheat look very promising. Fruit
in this section has been seriously DAM
aged by tile frost, but there will be
more than was expected. The Ciceroni-
an Literary Society, of this village; will
give 4 public entertainment i'm Redett's
Hall, at the close of the select school,
which will be on the 23d of this month.
We understand that they will spare no
pains in cndeavoring to make this sue
cess. All are invited to attend.
We wish to make correction at this
time in regard to a statement in our
last concerning the Greiger oats. Mr..
Greiger, upon a closer investigation,
discovered that from the one grain and
one hundred and six stalks, there were
eight thousand five hundred grains, in
stead of four thousand, without consid-
ering an amount destroyed by vermin
Those wishing to see this new variety Of
oats, will find the same at the post office
in this place.

Accident.

Morris Joiee, Il citizen of Baughman
township, this county, residing about
three miles east of Orrville, has been for
some time past working on the extension
of the Cleveland, Mt. VerIDn & Della
ware Railway, four miles south of Ma
poleon, Holmes county, i'm the deep cut,
where he met with Il very serious and
painful accident on Monday oflast week.
At the time of the accident, Mr.. Joice
was in very tight place. In the cut
where Mr.. Joice was working, there are
steps from the bottom of the cut to the
top, and on each one a man works, the
gentleman above mentioned was work
ing on the top one and each one throwing
his dirt and rock to his next neighbor
above him. A cart was backing into the
step where Mr.. Joice was working, and
by some means gave him shove,
which over-balanceG him, and he fell,
or rather jumped from his step. He did
not hurt himself at this time, but found
that he was ina very perilous situation,
having jumped almost on a rock with a
lighted fuse already Sizing, and he had
no other alternative than to leap into
the deep cut below and risk saving his
life, there being no hope in any other
direction. He jumped for his life, al
most thirty feet down the embankment,
misplacing both ankles, breaking one of
his legs, below the knee and mashing
both feet in a horrible manner. One of
his legs will probably have to be ampu-
tated. Mr.. Joice has been brought from
Holmes county to the residence of his
brother-in-law, Mr.. Conner, in this vii
lage, where his every want is being at
tended to by his friends. There Is little
hope for his recovery -Orroilte Crescent

Sudden Death.

On Thursday morning, May Both,
George SpOoner, of Oxford township,
went out into field on his farm to get
doubletree, intending to 20 to plow-
ing. Not returning at noon, his wife
went out to the stable, and found that
the horses had not been taken out. She
however did not feel alarmed, supposing
he had gone to work for neighbor, he
having been assisting neighboring
farmer a few days. But as night drew
on she became alarmed and went in
search of him, and found him lying
dead in the field with the doubletree in
his hand. There was no marks of vio-
lence upon his body, and he evidently
fell dead without a struggle where he
was found. He leaves a wife and two
children.-Taseara,,ds Adcocdte.

Accident.

Mr.. G. B. Smith, clerk at the Butler
House, met with an accident on Tues
day forenoon whereby he had two or
three ribs broken and several other
bruises and scars. He drove the Light
ming Rod team, attached to Buffers
buggy, down to the Depot where he
wished to see and watch the progress OF
a game of Base Ball. In driving over
a rut near the depot, the buggy was
thrown about rather roughly, and the
traces being too long, the pole dropped,
and the buggy was jerked upon the
horses, which caused them to start sud-
denly, whereby Mr.. Smith was pulled
over the dashboard and down among the
traces and wheels His legs caught in
the wheel, from which he was extricated
in a moment to be run over by the buggy
The horses ran short distance crossed
a fence and were stopped before going
very far.

For the Republica
SCIENTIFIC BEE CULTURE.

In my last article on this subject l
promised to give some methods of in
Producing Italian Queen Bees, to native
colonies. 1t is sometimes difficult to in
duce contrary colony of hybrids, (half
Italian and half Black Bees to accept a
stranger Queen by any method, even af-
ter they are reduced to the necessity of
such humiliation by depriving them of
any means of raising one of their own,
which is done by allowing them to start
their own Queen cells. and suffering
them to work with them about eight
days. Then open the hive and cut ont
erery Queen cell. In day or two after
the cells have been removed. Introduce
Queen rs follows:
Put her in wire guaze cage. such as
is generally used, (any Queen breeder
will furnish them cork the cage secure
ly, and place it between combs contain
ing sealed honey close TO where the
brood is deposited. In two or three
days, open the hive as carefully as poss-
ible and remove the cork from the cage,
and tie two thicknesses of newspaper
over the end, trim off neatly, smear a
little honey on the paper, and replace
the cage and shut up the hive. The bees
will cut out the Queen undisturbed. In
this way we have never lost a Queen.
TO INTRODUCE AN ITALIAN QUEEN TO
NATIVE OR BLACK BEES.
Method No. l.-kill the black Queen
and in six hours after, cage the Italian
Queen and place cage near the brood
between two combs where there is
honey, let her remain there As hours,
then liberate her by uncorking the cage
and permitting her to crawl out among
the bees. Ii she is well secured the
bees will show their kindness by OPEN
ing their ranks to let her pass over the
combs, or let her pass unmolested, but if
some of them should nibble her, or run
after her or show indications of a dispo-
sition to sting, or cluster her, remove
her at once. If they cluster her, throw
the cluster, Queen and all into cup of
water, the bees will instantly let her go,
and you can take her out of the water.

colony i'm the manner as stated above,

black Queen. After the Queen lin any
ease where cells can be made) examine
the hive in week after, and cut out

Method No. 2.-Wait till the Queen
cells are a week old, daub the Queen
with honey and drop her among the |
bees on a sheet of comb. Notice how
she is received.
Method No. 3.-Drive the bees out of |
the hive, and secure the Queen as in all !

hive and shake the bees from your |
box on it, and while the bees
are going in, drop the Queen down

and forget to sting her.
This is an unfavOrable season for bees.

Another Victim,

From the Massillon American we learn
that another person has fallen victim
to the New York swindling operators
to the tune of $l10. This man was poor
and had to borrow from his friends
part of the money. He procured the
box and started off with his supposed
prize thinking his fortune made. He
opens the box and instead of finding
his expected genuine counterfeit money
finds sawdust, scraps of iron and the
like. The reader can imagine his feel
ings upon the discovery. We would
again advise all not to allow themselves
to be thus trifled with.

A STRANGE PREsENTlMENT.

The Scranton pa. Republican
tells the following sad story of one
OF the victims of the late Pittston
disaster: "William James expired
about three o'clock on the afternoon
of the Tuesday following the catas-
trophe, and was the last added to
the list of those. upon whom the
death angel laid his hand in that
awful havoc. He was q Welshman,
and had been in this country about
seven months. On the morning of
the dreadful day in question he had
taken his breakfast and his wife had
made ready his dinner and set the
pail beside him. For some time he
sat wrapped in thought, his arms
folded, his eyes fixed vacantly upon
the stove, and a deep melancholy
apparently brooding over him. He
was aroused from his reverie by his
wife telling him that his dinner was
ready, and that he would be late, as
the bell rung. He started to his
feet, and gazing upon her for mo-
ment with a look full of tenderness
and significance, said to her, 'If l
should not come back alive would
you be in such q hurry getting me
out?" The wife answered NO."
but remarked that ''if he was going
at all, it was time he was gone. He
lifted his pail without saying q word,
and after kissing his wife, kissed
his four little children, who were
sitting playing on the door step.
When he had got about fifty yards
from his home, he returned again,
and kissed his wife and children
once more with great feryency. His
wife noticed that he was the victim
of gloomy forebodings, and as he
turned away she was about to en-
treat him not to go to work if he az
pretended any danger. But hope
and courage and the pressing ne
cessities of their family overcome
her intention, and she let him 90.
She stood in the door and watched
him on his way to the fatal pit.
When at a point where he turned
out of her sight, he paused and cast
a wistful look toward his home and
little ones, md seeing his wife,
waved with his hand n last adieu.
He parted with his loved ones for
ever"

answer is, simply because it does every
