The Hunny Bee.

Josh Billing discourses upon the
honey bee as follows:
The hunny bee IL about 10 times the
size of the house fly never measured
them-they won't stand still long
enuff, butt think / have got their
demenshuns about right.
III have made blunder in this
matter, am reddy to repent and be
forgiven fOrit.
don't kno az we kan blame them
for this, for if beefstake lay hot and
well buttered by the roadside all the
time, and the bivalves were running
around on the half she'll, peppered aud
salted, and crying, "who will eat me?"
iwould like to see the man yu could
hire to thrash out rye that was wet in
the bundle for 10 shillins day.
Hunny bees are bilt with a sting,
which iz quicker than ghost when a
good bizness chance offers; but never
knu one to use it jest for the diviltry
Of the thing.
These little workers travel about 5
miles day during the sweet sezOn,
and bring their hunny home stuck on
to their legs. If there IL lazy one in
the hive he gets linched at once.
Linch law IL the hunny bees justiss
Man stole his code from the hunny
bee, jest az he haz stole pretty much
everything else he haz got.
Killing off the lazy may look little
tuff, but after all, there's sumthing
like mercy in t,for it IL the only way
known az yet to put an end to their
t0rments.
Hunny bees havea queen, but never
a king; this iz glate compliment to
the sex, and liz an argument for
"Wimmin's Rights" which the be-
leavers in this doklering are welkum
to use without giving me kredit for
it.
The hunny bees are the only nation
kno ov who have allwus had queen
for a ruler, and who have been more
prosperous and have existed longer
than any other people we kno ov.

Demand for the Bible.

People who are disposed to look con-
descendingly IN the Bible as IN obso-
lete book-a volume whose teachings
have been superseded by those of sci
ence and philosophy-a book which is
interesting only to theologians-must
be greatly perplexed by paragraphs
which occasionally creep into print,
even in newspapers which make no
pretence of supplying religious news.
The latest of these is that the British
and Foreign Bible Society has distrib-
uted during the past year nearly 10000
Bibles in Russia and Prussia, and that
new editions are necessary. Although
a demand for any particular book does
not necessarily prove its value, the
frequent recurrence of such bits Of in
formation about the Bible, shows that
the old book does not lose its interest,
and that neither the attacks of its foes
nor the wisdom of its friends can pre-
vent its retaining its influence upon
the human mind.-ChaiStian Union.

German Invasion Of France.

The Germans are getting back into
Frauce-this time on a peaceful mis-
sion, apparently. The French com
plain and take consolation in a round
of abuse, as follows: Germany is a
shabby land, as it's inhabitants can't
stay at home. Prussia sends back into
Gaul her discharged soldiers, on the
close of their war labors, to gobble up
all the best paid positions which the
Gaul is foolish enough to give them,
generous hearts abdicating vengeance.
These Germans are not only covetous,
but spies of Bismarck, to ferret out ali
the secrets of the shop, families and
state, and yet thrice silly Gaul persists
in wearing her heart on her elbow, for
the davis to peck at. These Germans
are permanent overseers, not discour-
aged by hatred and contempt, only
thereby rather more Shiny. These
Germans are Austrians and Poles, or
give themselves out to be, while taking
the trout seats in trade and manufac-
ture. These Germans left us to get
their weapons across the Rhine; they
came back and skinned us alive they
then went home to hang up their
bruised arms now, like vultures, they
have come back to pick our bones.
Auoso 0ormauS nave De6n particularly
spotted of late in the projects reports.
They prohibit the expectation of their
horses to Gaul, which in turn should
prohibit the importation of all their
two-legged animals, not wanted and far
more dangerous than quadrupeds. And
SO we go. The ruth is, the Germans
like France-love her-got a first class
taste in 1870, snd subsequently iuched
to get back. France is a pretty girl
her teeth are like flock of sheep, and
Pfussians like sheep meat. CONNIE

White Quails.

A year ago from last fall a pair of
white quaiis were netted in the western
part of this country and were purchased
by G. H. Ribble, Esq, of this city.
They were very much like the ordinary
quail with the exception of being pure
white. Mr.. Ribble kept them until last
May and then, as they seemed dropping
and Respondent, turned them loose in
the woods south of town. Nothing
more was heard of them until early in
the fall, when they were discovered on
the Lakeland farm, with an interesting
family OF thirteen chicks, all as white
as themselves. They are yet in that
vicinity, our sportsmen, by common
consent, leaving them unmoleeted. If
it had only been freak of nature, as
was supposed by some to be the case
with the pair captured, the progeny
would have been of the ordinary color.
They are evidently kind new to this
country. What is their proper name
and classification, and where did they
come from? Will some one who is
posted please inform us.--MeIico ono. }

A very few hours sufficed to prepare
an indictment, summon officers enough
for a court martial, and commence pro-
ceediDgs. Mr.. Israel was led across
from the forecastle to the cabin, where
speedy trial and short shrift were
in store for the rebel. And the rebel
took glance across the still water to
his pretty homestead which he felt was
not long to claim as the proprietor.
The trial was mere formality. Wit
ne, SOS testified to anything that was de-
sired of them. The Judge Advocate
evidently felt that the whole matter was
beneath him. He asked but few ques-
tions, and those in a careless manner.
One witness, as n browning point to his
testimony, averted that when Lord
Howe sent to purchase cattle with
specie that the rebellious individual re-
turned for answer that he would rather
give his cattle to Washington, than re-
ceive thousands of British gold T.

marines marched across the deck.

lake is literally alive with fish. I have
seen colored boys with an ordinary
pole cut from the woods. a line not over
four feet long, and a fly, rudely con-
structed of white and red flannel, catch
eighty pounds of black bass in couple
of hours. These fish average from two
to twelve pounds. An eight-pound bass
is common. A few days ago gentle
man residing i'll GainvilIe caught and
weighed On Fairbanks scales, in the
presence of a number of northern visit
ors here, a black bass weighing nine
teen and one-quarter pounds. Tradi-
ton says one was caught here last year
that weighed twenty-three pounds. All
the small streams flowing into this lake
are also full of bass. Day before yes
terday I saw three small boys standing
in n stream, about three feet wide, and
may be a foot deep, each armed with
piece of hoop iron, with which they
killed, in the half hour I was present,
eight good sized bass. Another boy of
the same party, with two-bushel corn
bag, made one haul in the same stream
of ten bass.

Ball0oning in 1875.

An Attempt at Crossing the Atlantic
Probable.
Although Mr.. Donaldson, the aero
naut, did not succeed in reaching Eu-
rope last year by the aid of the easterly
current, his limited success has induced
Mr.. Barnum to make further engage
ment with him for the summer months
of 1875. A few days ago an agreeme mt
was entered into by which Mr.. Donald
son agrees to devote his entire services
to the furtherance of aeronautic travel
ing during the next eight months, for
which he Is to receive the sum of two
thousand dollars, Mr.. Barnum further
agreeing to pay all expenses attending
the experiment. During the last sum-
mer Donaldson made a large number of
successful ascensions, during which
hundreds of careful observations were
made, none of the results have as yet
been made public. It is considered
proved, first, that it is possible to land
balloon successfully at any point
named and to re-ascend without material
loss of ascending power and, second,
that fixed law governs the air currents,
q knowledge of which will enable the
voyager to leave any spot and return
to the same at pleasure. During the
past winter Mr.. Donaldson has been
engaged in arranging compactly the
results of his work during his many
years experience, and possesses therein
a more complete aerial chart than was
ever before compiled. Extensive prep
arations have been made for carrying
on successful summer campaign dur
ing the coming months, to absolutely
determine the existence of an easterly
current. If these experiments continue
to develop Mr.. Donaldson's theory,
there is little doubt that by October Of
this year he and a selected company
will have a try at the Atlantic. He is
now at work upon six balloons of vari-
GUS sizes, capable of carrying from one
to twelve people.-M Y. World.

Marriage and Longevity.

In the recent published "Study OF
Sociology" Mr.. Herbert Spencer as
sails theory that has long been cur
| rent with regard to marriage and lon
gevity. That married life is favorable
to longevity has generally been regard
ed as satisfactorily proved by numer-
GUS statistics, sho wing, almost without
exception, a greater longevity on the
part of the married. When the ratio
of deaths in the two classes stands at
ten to four, and even twenty four,
there would appear to be little room
for doubt. But to this astute social
scientist the evidence, strong as it
seems, furnishes no warrant for the
current belief. He regards the case as
substitution of cause for effect in
other words, greater longevity is not
the consequence of marriage; on the
contrary, marriages are clearly tracea-
BILE to influences favoring longevity.
The principles of natural selection work
so strongly in deciding between the
Benedicks and the bachelors, that the
long hvers are drawn to the former and
the short livers to the latter. Marriage,
Spencer holds, is regulated by the
ability to meet its responsibilities. The
qualities which give the advantage here
are intellectual and bodily vieor, pru.
dence, and self control these, too, are
the qualities which determine pro-
longed life or a premature death. An
even more direct relation is to be found
in the instincts which lead most strongly
to marriage. The reproductive in
stlncts and emotions are strong in pro-
portion as the surplus vital energy is
great, and this in turn implies an or
ganization likely to last SO that, in
fact, the superiority of physique, which
is accompanied by strength of the in
stincts and emotions causing marriage,
is a sue eriority of physique also con-
ducive to longevity" Another infiu-
ence tells in the same direction. Mar
rage is determined by the preference
of women as well rs the desires of men,
and, other things being equal, women |
are attracted towards men of physical |
and intellectual power, refusing the |
diseased, and ill-developed |
types. In the operation of those three
elements Mr.. Spencer finds all that is
needed to account for the striking diff
ference of longevity between the classes,
and declares that "the figures given
afford no proof that marriage and Ion
sevity are cause and consequence but
hey simply verify the inference which
night be drawn priori-that marriage |
md longevity are concomitant results |

Leopard versus Cow.

Sir Samuel Baker, in his interesting
work on Ceylon, tells us that the Loop
ards in that country cause no little loss
among the cattle. They are SO daring
that they will get to the sheep and cows
by scratching through the matched
roofs of the sheds in which they are
kept. Sometimes, however, they meet
with their match in the small but active
cattle, as in the following instance:
About three years ago a leopard took
1t into his head to try the beefsteaks of
a very savage and short horned COW,
who, with her calf, was the property of
blacksmith. It was dark, rainy
night. The blacksmith and his wife
were in bed, and the COW and calf were
nestled in the warm straw in the cattle
shed.
The door was locked, and all was ap-
parently secure, when the hungry Loop
ard prowled stealthily around the cow
house, shifting the prey within. The
strong smell of the leopard at once
alarmed the keen senses of the COW,
made doubly acute by her anxiety for
her little charge, and she stood ready
for the danger, as the leopard, hav-
ing mounted on the roof, commenced
scratching his way through the thatch.
Down he sprang, but at the same in
slant, with splendid charge. the COW
pinned him to the wall, and battle en-
sued which can be easily imagined.
A coolic slept in a corner OF the cat
tie shed, whose wandering senses were
completely scattered when he found
himself the unwilling umpire. of the
fight. He rushed out and shut the
door. In few minutes he succeeded
in awakening the blacksmith, who pro-
ceeded to load pistol, the only weapon |
be possessed.
During the whole of this time the |
believing of the COW, the roars of |
The leopard, and the humping, tramp
ling and shutting which proceeded from !
the cattle shed, explained the savage |
nature of the fight.
The blacksmith, who was no sports |
man, shortly found himself with Ian
and no idea what he meant to do. He |
waited, therefore, at the shed door, and |
holding the light so as to shine through |
the numerous small apertures, he look
ed in. The leopard no longer growled,
but the COW was mad with fury. She
alternately threw a large dark mass
over her head, then quickly. pinned it
70 the ground on its descent, and then
bored it against the wall as it crawled
1elplessly toward corner of the shed.
This was the beef eater in reduced cir
substances. The gallant little COW had
nearly killed him, and was now giving
him the finishing strokes.
The blacksmith perceived the leop-
lrd's helpless state, and, boldly opening
he door, discharged the pistol, and the
lext minute was boiling as hard as he
Gould run, with the warlike COW after
him. She was regularly cup" and was
eady for anything or anybody. How
aver, she was at length pacified, and the
lying leopard was put out of his misery.

Magnificent Fishing in Florida.

South from Jacksonville about two

was vast prairie of over twenty thou
sand acres of good grazing land. In
the midst of it was a deep hole or Iaud

in the state, into which the waters Of
mcKinstry Lake, situated further north,
and the surrounding country used to
flow and find subterranean outlet to

let got more or less choked up, and the
surplus water backing soon covered this

condition it has remained ever since.
