Honey is taking rank among the sta
Pile products OF California, and is al.
ready exported in considerable quaint
ties, even in the more luxurious condi-
ton of its original deposit in the comb.
The Calitornians claim, with that conf
dence which inspires their estimate of
the State in every other respect, that it
is the honey-producing section of the
Union. The Southern counties Of Los
Angeles, San Bernardino and San Diego
are peculiarly the home of the bee and
the chief seat OF the bee-culture and
honey-production. A wealthy resident
OF San Diego, the largest California pro-
ducer, has invented hive, which in its
original condition, as packed by the bee,
can be transported safely to any dis
tance by railroad. This facilitates the
transmission Of honey in the comb in a
softer and better and more desirable
condition. Hitherto it has been brought
in barrels, and sold consequently at
cheaper rates. Now it is brought in the
comb to the New York and Boston mar
kets, arriving in good state, at the cost
Tor freight OF about $1,000 q car load OF
20, ,00O pounds. The producer above re-
ferred to has this year crop of 100000
pounds, which he designs tor Eastern
markets. The honey product OF Cal
itornia, last year, was more than half a
million pounds.

The literature of horrors is to be soon
enriched by the publication of work
that has unaccOunlably escaped the
keen eye OF. translator and bookmaker,
the Memoirs OF Samson, the hereditary
French eXecutioner, who otticiated at the
decapitation of Louis XVI. 1t is said
that Sanson's son, who was also OH the
scatfold on the memorable 21st Of Janu-
ary, had at the Restoration secret ill.,
terview with Louis XVIII, to whom he
recounted minutely the death Of the last
French King. The Memoirs have become
very rare, even in France. They are
written III the turgid and vulgarly senti-
mental style OF a philanthropist whom
fate has condemned 10 oficiate at the gull.
lotine. Before he died Samson founded
a perpetual anniversary mass for the re-
pose of the soul Of Louis XVI.

A young Bostonian met with COM
ical mishap recently. His watch break
ing down just before he set out for the
opera, of which he was frequenter, he
stepped into jewelers. shop where he
was we'll acquainted Tor the purpose of
having his tlmepiece repaired, and OBJ
tanned substitute for it in the shape
of a handsome Swiss watch, loaned him
by the courtesy ofthe proprietor OF the es-
tablishment. Thus equipped, the young
gentleman took his seat at the opera,
and everything went well until the mid
die of the second act, when suddenly he
heard u strain OF sweet music not in the
score, waited sweet and low in his neigh
borhood. People to right of him, people
to the left OF him, people on all sides ol
him, queried and wondered. Finally,
horrible to relate, the unfortunate man
found that the music issued from his
vest pocket. and as he frantically pulled
out the watch. the strains of the Swiss
waltz thrilled his soul. He stood not
upon the order OF his departure but
went at once.

Little, loved face in which the clear child-soul

Cloud shadows of great questionings; and dole
For human ills half realized; where race,

THE sECRET OF SUCCESS.

The recent death Of John Harper, OF
the great publishing house Of Harper
Brothers, affords an occasion for en-
forcing one of the fundamental laws OF
success.
The firm OF the Harpers has existed
for more than half century. 1t CON-
prised four brothers. One died in 1867,
another in 1870, and now a third is dead
at 10 years OF age. John was the most
devoted member of the iirm from the
first. He made himself its heart and
soul-though his brothers were true to
the interests OF the house.
John was the first OF the boys to "strike
put'' into the world. Their father was O
plain farmer OF Rhode Island. John
went to New York and learned the print.

IN the Northern Indiana Conference OF
the Methodist Church, which has just
ad armed, strong effort was made to
LASS a resolution authorizing omen to
preach. Bishop Bowman said, in con-
nection with this subject, that techni-
cal objection could be raised against the
passage of the resolution, but he hoped
the next General Conference OF the
Church would SO amend the discipline as
TO allow women to aspire to the ministry.

DUSKY TIMES SAKATOG4.

Even the negroes rebel against the
DEGREES of capital. The spirit of implicit
obedience to masters that had been en-
gendered through two hundred years of
slavery is contumacious when it is pro-
posed to reduce the pay for honest work
in order to increase the eXhorbitant prof
its of capital.
How many colored walters are en-
ployed at Saratoga during the 'swell-
head" season we don't know, but 1t is
reported that five hundred of them met
in New York the other night to protest
against the reduction of their wages at
Saratoga from S25 to $40 per month.
They say that $25 affords only bare
support for their families. Consider the
deduction to which they are liable and
the limited portion OF the year during
which they are employed. IT. waiter is
ten minutes late he is fined twenty five
cents, and for longer tardiness half a
days wages are deducted. They also
swyer deduction for any wares that are
broken or injured. The very best of
house wives break much glass and
crockery. Much more are walters in
such extensive establishments, where
the utmost rapldity of movement is re-
qured, liable to accidents in breaking
furniture.
Considering these deductions, and the
fact that the season of employment Is
pnly from June to August inclusive, and
the balance of the year they must get
employment, if they can find 1t, in New
York at the expense of a months
wages-how, under such circumstances,
could the proprietors of hotels for rich
pleasuye-seekers have the facial brass
to ask reduction to $40 per month?
These walters must dress well, and 1t is
not likely that they plunder the guests
by serving them in proportion to the
bonus they receive. They have organ
lied a society and resolved that before
submitting to $40 they will resume the
shovel and the hoe.
The President Of the Society said that
he had been accustomed to the plow both
rs a slave and freeman, and before
starving his family on the proposed
wages, he would go back to the plow
and cotton-picking. They express the
confidence that the proprietors will do
Justice to them when the facts are un-
derstood. They deal very gently with
their Saratoga employers. and do not
nrns,ose a strike.
Single men at $40 and board ought 70
save $15 every month, and soon get into
position of independence of capital.
We presume. however, that the negroes
are as foolish as many white men who
Bquander all while single, marry, put on
the yoke of slavery and stumble about in
the gloom and despair Of poverty the
balance of their days. II we are consid-
cred harsh on this point, we reply that
it is impossible to find fitting terms in
which TO denounce the insanity of young
men who marry before securing COM
Portable homestead OF their own.

up" in business on a small scale. At.

u IA
tention and good judgment insured sue
cess, and soon the other two brothers
were taken into the firm. Such was
their success that the loss of million
and quarter by fire did not at all Grip
pie their energies, but they "went in''
more largely than ever, and prospered
as if no loss had occurred.
Only one Of the brothers remains; but
the places of the others are supplied by
the sons and even the grandsons of the
brothers. One can not go to any depart
ment Of the almost infinite business OF
the establishment without encountering
a Harper as superintendent and master
of the department.
Now what is the secret of their sue.
cess? Simply this-fdelity to business.
They are not supposed to have pos
sessed more than the ordinary share of
talent that falls to business men; but
from the first moment of learning their
trade they were faithful, industrious,
and anxious for the greatest excellence.
They were brought up by an industri-
Gus and economical New England farmer,
who rose at O'Clock A. NJ, got breakfast
before daylight and was out to work with
his sons before sunrise. This habit re-
quired "early to bed," and "early to bed"
kept the boysout OF indolent and dissipat-
ing company. They learned enough of the
world to know that there were pursuits
that gave one larger range of influence
and more wealth than farming; and with
nothing at all but their "homespun"
clothes, they put into the great city.
They learned trade. They were never
afraid of doing too much for'their en-
ployers.
Too many ruin themselves by being
afraid OF earning more than their wages.
Every employe who is governed by such
spirit is inevitably destined to most
disgracetul failure. The employe who
would be glad to earn for his employer
$1,000, even if he did not receive $500 in
wages or salary, is certain to succeed.
He who would be glad, even on a salary
of $40 week, to honestly make for his
employer $4,000 year, will most Ger.
tainly do well through life and in all
probability become richer than his mas
ter.
Such persons always find enough to do
and they are generally in demand as
partners in established firms.
No matter what the occupation, duty
requires the best that the employe is
capable of, without regard to the amount
of his wages. To shirk this duty, to do
the least possible, is to contract habit
that proves fatal in everything one may
undertake Tor himself, even in the bare
expenditure of his low wages.
No matter about the contrast of wealth
and poverty, and in this point Of view,
no matter about monopoly and injustice
success, under the circuna-
stances, is the immediate pressing prob
lem for the individual to solve. Reform
takes time, and in the meanwhile, each
must do the best he can under the exist
ing state Of things. Every one should
keep reform in view, so that his children
will enjoy tairer field for success, but
to whine, and groan, and get malicious
at the monopolists, and thus fritter away
all the means Of prosperity which one
may employ, is the most ruinous mad
ness. No reform can ever come from
such a spirit, from such baseness.
