EXPOSITION.
TO The PUBLIC.

The Board Of Directors have decided to open
their Second Grand Exposition on the 18th Of
November to the 10th Of December, inclusive,
In response to the general wish Of the commu-
nifty. and as an earnest token Of returning
prosperity and confidence. A liberal expend-
iture Of money and industry had already pre-
pared us TO open promptly on tho lst OF Oeto-
Der last. but tho cause which forced US to
postpone has not only departed. but leaves a
recuporativo spirit among our people. who
desire TO assure our sister cities that energy
can conquer misfortune.
A large Power Hail. with boiler, engine,
shafting and pullies, has been erected. and a
magnificent Floral Temple. well covered with
glass roof. and arranged so as to supply all
the artificial heat that may bo necessary. is
now ready to receive plants and flowers; and
although the season is late and opportunity
unfavorable. yet that department Is in the
hands Of expert and competent gentlemen,
who will make magnificent display. win
ter flower garden is perhaps much more
pleasing spectacle than a summer one. and
we have every assurance that the entertain
ment will be unsurpassed.
An Orchestrion has been imported at great
expense, and will discourse a large share Of
music at all times.
The whole building has been oyerhauled,
repainted. newly decorated and well ap-
pointed, with every convenience to please and
entertain the visitors. With a view to the
season. arrangements will be perfected to keep
the temperature pleasant and comfortable day
and night. A mimic stage with appropriate
scenery has been erected. which will add to
its charms during the season. Interesting and
entertaining tableaux. panoramas. concerts
and other novelties will be produced every
night.
The Fine Art Gallery will be newly fitted up.
and attract large share of attention.
In the interest of our city and country we
appeal to the liberality of our friends and the
citizens Of Memphis especially, for their gen.
erous patronage and hearty cooperation.
Goods will be received at any time and ar
ranged for display.
Arrangements have been made for reduced
fare and freight on all railroads, steamboats,
and express lines. N. M. JONES, Pres't.

what n Fairy saw in a Beehive.

Whht Eary hhN In ~ noe-hiNe.
In the store-rooms we saw rows upon
rows Of cells, fitted one upon another,
and every one filled with clear honey,
and securely sealed.
This is our winter store" said my
guide; "pure heney, made from the
white clover, and put up in the combs
by the workers"
" How do they make the honeyT l
asked.
They gather it" she replied. ave
send out thousands Of bees every morn
ing, TO all the gardens and fields around.
Mignonette makes good honey, and so
do apple-blossoms. We usually make
from two to six pounds in day. The
bees often fly as far as two miles from
the hive, and they come back loaded
with honey and pollen. Each worker
has n tongue or proboscis with which
she licks or brushes up the honey, and
puts it into her honey. bag.
Stop moment" said she 10 a
worker who was hurrying by. You
will observe, my dear, that the hinder
legs have something like baskets, on the
side, in which the pollen or bee-bread is
carried.
II see it," said l, 81 have often
watched the bees coming out of flowers,
covered with yellow dust"
i then took the opportunity to mention
to her that | lived in lily-bell, that /
sometimes danced the greater part of
the night, and that the bees were very
much in the habit of waking me at an
unreasonable hour in the morning. She
said she would attend to it.
Aud how do the bees make wax2" |
asked.
I" By a process best known to them
selves, replied Deborah. 1t is not in
my line just now, and / am quite sure
that ! could not describe it to you. The
bees say they cannot tell how they do it,
but they wish to keep the secret among
themselves. The sides of these cells are
the. one hundred and eightieth part of
an inch in thickness. So you see we
must use an immense quantity of wax. "
You must, indeed" | replied. "And
are the cells always made in this same
shape?"
"Yes," said she. "They are six
sided. The early bees fixed upon that
as the best for strength and economy of
space, and no change has been made
since. However, the bumble-bees, she
added, with slight expression of scorn,
as though she had said, the beggars,
have way which they prefer. They put
it up in bags, and store it underground.
This was no news to me. Such
thing has been done in fairy-land as to
borrow little honey from the bum
ble-bee in time of scarcity. But said
nothing.
And you tell me the workers do the
fighting. Is there much fighting to doY
| asked.
"a great DEAL" replied Deborah.
"We have many enemies, bother on
them Mice, caterpillars, moths, snails,
wasps, robber.bees and other evil
minded creatures" AS she said this
she buzzed fercely and unsheathed her
sting.
Look here a moment" said she,
and you will see one of them
And there in corner, guarded by a
squad of bees, lay wretched snail,

the shell was covered with strong ce-
ment, which held it firmly to the floor.
