TWO HORSES KILLED BY BEEs.-A few
days ago driver In the employ OF DR.. Webb
OF Boopton, N. j., took the doctors team To
Frapklinville for q load OF mari. While
passing place where there are several
hives OF bees, the driver stopped for a mo-
ment, and Immediately the bees few out In
large numbers and attacked the animals
The horses kicked and plunged, and were
almost wild with terror, but all efforts to
urge Them on proved Intellectual. The
driver tried TO unhitch them, bat the bees
attacked him vigorously and soon drove him
away. de proceeded TO Pennington, where
he procured quantity Of mosquito netting
which be wound around his head, and put
on pair Of leather gloves. Protected thus,
he returned to the aid OF the horses and,
after scraping the bees of their sides with
his hands, succeeded In getting them away.
The animals died short time after reach
ing home. The bees seem TO have been in
furiated, for they afterwards attacked their
owners house, but were driven away by the
fumes OF burning sulphur. In the morning,
however, they renewed the attack. and drove
the family out OF the house-[N Y. Times

The Lady Who Discarded Washing
toms Suit.

THE elder sister of Miss Mary Cary had
whose house he was on visit, when she
captivated a young man who paid her his
addresses His affection. however, was
not returned, and the offer of his hand
was rejected by Miss Cary. This young
man was afterward known to the world as
Gen. George Washington, the first Presi-
dent of the United States of America.
Young Washington asked permission of
old Mr.. Cary to address his daughter be-
fore he ventured to speak to herself. The
reply of the old gentleman was: IF
that is your business here, sir, | wish you
to leave the house, for my daughter has
been accustomed to ride in her own
coach" 1t has subsequently been said
that this answer of Mr.. Cary to the strip
ling Washington produced the indepen-
dence of the United States, and laid the
foundation of the future fame of the first
of heroes and the best of men-our i'm
mortal Westinghouse it was more than
probable that, had he obtained possession
of the large fortune which it was known
Miss Cary would carry to the altar with
her, he would have passed the remainder
of his life in inglorious ease 1t was an
anecdote of the day that this lady, many
years after she had become the wife OF
Edward Amber, happened to be in Will
liamsburg when Gen. Washington PASSED
through that city at the head of the Amer
lean army, crowned with never-fading
laurels and adored by his countrymen.
Having distinguished her among the
| crowd, his sword waved toward her a
military salute, whereupon she is said to
have tainted. But this wants corfrma-
ton, for her whole life tended to show
that she never for moment regretted the
| choice she had made It may be added,
as a curious fact, that the lady Gen
Washington afterward married resembled
Miss Gary as much as one twin-sister ever
did another.-From Bishop Meades i" Old
! Churches and Families Of Virginia."
