A Trustworthy Agent.

Earl W. Barney was an Express mes
senger on the New York Express, which
left Chicago and ran off the track and
was burned at Valparaiso. A local
paper says:
He was jammed in among q con-
fused mass of valuable freight, and the
iron money-safe or trunk, of which he
was in special charge, was thrown upon
him, nearly crushing him to death. A
colored baggage-master succeeded in
extricating Barney from the perilous
position he occupied before the flames
of the burning car got we'll under way
The heroic messenger, more dead than
alive from his terrible injuries, declined
all offers of assistance in enabling him
to reach house. and went to
work and got the safe ont of
the car, and nearly all the express
freight; then he sat down on his safe,
and to all inquiries as to the contents
returned evasive answers, utterly re-
fusing to leave until relieved by an en-
ploye of the Adams Express Com
pany, who did not arrive until two
hours had elapsed, Poor Barney was
conveyed to his home, where he now
lies, complete physical wreck, and il
will be months before he will be able
to get off from his bed."

A Savage Lot of Bees.

One of the terrors for the Nile trav-
eler is bees! At one time the adverse
wind made it necessary that DR..
Schweinfurth' boat should be towed
by the crew. AS the rope was being
drawn along through the grass on the
banks it happened that it disturbed
swarm of bees. In moment, like q
great cloud, they burst upon the men
who vera dragging. Every one of them
threw himself headlong into the water,
and hurried to regain the boat. The
swarm followed them, and in a few
seconds filed every nook and Granny of
the deck. DR.. Schweinfurth was sit
ting quietly in his rude cabin arranging
his botanical specimens, when he heard
a scampering round the deck, which he
at first took to be the usual frolicking
of his people; but as the noise in
creased, he called out for an explana-
tion of the disturbance. For an answerhe
received only the terrific cry of "Bees!
bees!" Springing up, he endeavored
to light his pipe, hoping to protect
himself with smoke, but it was too
late the bees were already upon him.
Thousands surrounded him, and he
was mercilessly stung all over his face
and hands. He endeavored to protect
his face with his handkerchief, but all
to no purpose the more violently he
flung his hands about the more violent
became the impetuosity of the irritated
insects. At length, almost maddened,
he threw himself into the river, but
the stings still rained down upon his
head. He tried to gain the main land,
hoping to find shelter in the woods,
bnt some of his faithful servants, know
ing that course to be certain death,
forced him back into the boat. Here
he wrapped himself up in a sheet,
which, after he had crushed the bees
inside, afforded him some protection.
He crouched down in this way for full
three hours, while the buzzing continu-
ed uninterruptedly, and solitary stings
penetrated through the linen covering.
Every one on board pursued the same
course, and gradually the buzzing sub
sided. At length some courageous fell
lows crept stealthily to the bank, and
set fire to the reeds. The smoke which
rose blinded and stupefed the bees so
that the boat was successfully driven
beyond their reach. Free from further
apprehension, the sufferers proceeded
to examine their injuries. Some of the
stings were extracted with pincers, but
those which remained produced ulcers,
and even fever, which kept the whole
boats company in an uncomfortable
state for several days.

The COOlie Traffic.

The Pail Mall Gazette remarks :
"Before the Macao coolie traffic is for
gotten it may be as well to recapitulate
some of the terrible disasters which at
tended the emigration of the wretched
Cinnamon from that port. These are
shown in o statement drawn up in the
Overland China Mail of the coolie
ships on board of which mutinies broke
out, or disasters occurred, from the
year 1916 to the year 1872. From this
we learn that evil befcll thirty hit
ships during the period named. On
board twenty-three vessels out of this
number the coolies mutinied, and in
thirteen cases murdered the whole or
part of the crew, including the officers.
But the mortality among the Europeans
was trifing in comparison with that
which prevailed among the coolies. On
board the Lady Montague, which sailed
with 450 coolies, 800 lost their lives. In
the Waverly, carrying 442 coolies, 295
died. The same fate befell 110 on
board the John Calvin. Eight hundred
ana nifty coolies, making up the entire
number of emigrants on board the Flora
Temple, were lost in the ship off the
coast of Cochin China. Out of $50 who
sailed in the Dea del Mare, only 1862
got as far as Tahiti alive. The Jeddo,
which sailed with 4S0 coolies on board,
lost 200. Only AZ out of the $50 who
started in the Providenza were found
in her when she was discovered off Ha-
kodadi, in Japan, and 600 were burnt
to death on board the Dolores Ugarte,
in the fire they themselves had kindled
in the vain hope of escape. In several
other cases, where numbers are not
given, it is stated that great mortality
prevailed. Of the fatal number of the
ships referred to, fifteen were British,
four were American, three were Peru
vian, eight were French, five were Ital.
ian, and Holland, Belgium, and Sar
Salvador each contributed one.

A Georgia Heroine,

The following graphic description of
the real jewels of the fair South is given
by paper printed in the State of
Georgia : "Among the many visitors
who came to our city to sell their coun-
try produce, was a young lady from an
adjoining county who had chickens,
eggs and butter for sale. Her beauty
was of transcendent excellence. Bright,
flashing, intellectual eyes, and face
round and rosy, while her calico dress
was plain and neatly made, and fitted
beautifully. Her rich black hair flowed
in luxuriant richness. Highly educa-
ted, she conversed fuently, and deported
herself with becoming modesty. She
wore no false hustle or purchased COM
plexion had no top-knot on her
head, or false fixings to present, but
stood in the majestic beauty of acreated
intelligence that would not yield to the
despotic dictates of frivolous fashion.
1t has been along time since we gazed
upon such sight. The young men
crowded around her wagon with curl
osity in their eyes and admiration in
their hearts. The old men wept for
Joy that there was one who had not bow
ed to Baal. She sold her country pro-
duce, went home and milked the COWS,
cooked supper for ten farm laborers,
and went to church that night with her
sweetheart"
