Nee ba- nav baigs' Lake in the far gone
ages of antiquity. While speaking of
the Devils Lake we must not omit to
mention the life like stcrcopic views, of
the magnificent scenery taken by the
scientific photographer and artist of Bara-
boo, Mr.. Mathew Mould These views
bring the weird and wild scenery before
you, as nature made it, without incurr-
ing the risk of broken bones, and fati-
gued limbs, that would be necessary to
obtain them, IN the native glens.
Before leaving Baraboo, we must
touch upon the Railroad prospects Of the
town. Two competing lines will soon
control the surrounding country the
Chicago and Northwestern, branch to
St. Paul. under management of Col.
James Ii. Howe, Jno. G. Ga ult and g.
G. Wheeler, from south to north and
the Milwaukee and St. Paul road man
ged by S. S. Merrill and 0. E. Britt,
from east to west. The former road has
its track completed and trains running as
far north as Lodi, with large gangs OF
men grading, building bridges, culverts,
etc., as far as Baraboo at the present
writing.
The Milwaukee & St. Paul R. r. Co.
are within II miles of Baraboo at Xii
bourn city, but contemplate building a
branch to Baraboo from Portage City.
The facilities for transportation
these two monster Railroad corporations.
with all their numerous branches, can
furnish to the manufacturing interests
of the place, give new life, as it were, to
every member engaged in them. 1t was
the last thing needed to give the Baraboo
Manufacturing Company the ascendency
over all other furniture manufacturers in
the west; nor can we begin to express
the satisfaction felt by the manager .ot
this company over the prospective ad-
Vantages to accrue to it by reason of the
completion Of the Railroads. The G. &
n. W. or NJ. and st. Paul r. R. Com
panies can only be equalled by the other,
while IN road or management, they car
not be excelled by any other in the United
States. Their officers are courteous and
affable, and extend all the facilities and
favors to their customers, consistent with
duty to their respective companies.

A Whisper TO Clergymen.

How wish clergymen would not try
to frighten people into heaven / can
never believe for one, that any good can
come of il. What is that love or obcdi-
ence worth which is enforced by terror
Ask yourselves, you who are parents.
Is not terror itself the parent Of subter.
fnye and silent rebellion ? When hear
these things as i sometimes do, | long to
whisper in that clergyman's ear, 'Oh,
speak to them of Gods infinite pity and
love, melt that Indifferent and careless
hearer by the untiriug patience with
which lie torgives and bears while the
recipient forgets and sins on If true
and glowing statement OF all this, low
ingly spoken, cannot move him, be sure
that words Of terror and denunclation
will fall to the gronnd. In fact, be-
lieve that not only do they make no i'm
preston on the class for whom they are
intended, 1nt often do infinite harm to
the conscience Of some over sensitive
person, who, shivering at a tame,
needs 10 bp led forward TO bask in the
warm sunshine OF 'Our Fathers love.
How often have s, en- young persons
who could be led, but never driven, into
the tight way, utterly turned aside by
such utterances.
Now, say this without any disre-
spect toward the preacher, or others Of
the same class. Do you suppose, that if
you held biudgeon over a mars head
and then told him he must love you, he
would be likely to do IL Wouldn't it
be much more likely TO rouse all his
antagonisn toward you ? Or If, for the
time being, you forced him to lie, what
would be bis state when the restraint
was removed ? Sunday is no Sunday to
me without go to church. 1t is because
| love to do so, and am comforted and
strengthened by it, :hat l feel sensitive
about having anything said that will
keep away those whom | want to see
there. Surely, then, even if they who
read this differ from me, my motives
being such, they will hardly condemn

The Cincinnati Gazette has the follow
ing letter from Preble. County, Ohio: /
saw an account some time ago of artiti-
cial swarming, which do not think il
correct. 1t was as follows: Take
strong stock of bees and divide them
equally, bees, comb and all, and then SET
them apart" To this plan l will state
my objections. 1t is true u. queenless
stock will raise queen, but all the
comb that this stock builds will either
be drone comb or for storing honey,
which is great disadvantage. Now it
will be about from twelve to sixteen
days before the queen hatches Out, and
tIel four or five days more un il she
commences to lay. SO it will b, three
weeks before there is any thing done to-
wards replenishing the hive. The better
plan think, aud the one have practic.
ed for sometime, is as follows: Blow a
few whlffs Of smoke-that from punk
wood is the best--so as to drive them
up among the combs then carry this
hive away four or five rods and turn the
hive bottom end up; place it on the
'lorcing" box aud keep the two boxes
SO close that they can't get out to sting.
Now drive good swarm up by slightly
rapping againts the hive with stick.
AS soon as you carry this old stock
away, set an empty box on the old
stand to catch the returning bees that
come from the field. The swarm should
be made when the bees are in full fight.
Now take the old s ock and set them on
their old stand and let the bees that
have been at work all 90 into this,
which they will soon do. Then set this
stock to new stand not less than rod
away. Now get your young swarm
is done. Give the young swarm one
frame of brood if possible.
