ments to forarard Mails. from this rtg

|p. m. for the south, the mail messengers
have been withdrawn, and the mail will
be carried as express matter, in locked
pouches, and received only at Philadel-
phia and Baltimore. This arrangement
will leave Wilmington with no male IA
cilities, between Philadelphia and Balt-
more after the morning delivery, and
postmaster Pyle is now in correspondence
with the Postmaster General relative to Il
slight alteration of the plan as at present
arranged. He desires to have pouches
for Wilmington placed on these trains at
Philadelphia and Baltimore, and also to
have the Wilmington mails for these two
cities placed in locked pouches and car
ried with the other mail in the noon trains
He is in hopes his endcavors will prove
isucccsstul, as thereby the business men
of Wilmington will be saved considerable
annoyance and delay in the arrival and
forwarding of their mails.

Where shall We ship our H0neys

This is the all absorbing question now.
with beekeepers. San Francisco has
heretofore been the honey market for
Southern California, but at the pres
en- low prices it will not pay to ship
there when at least one half more can
be saved by shipping directly East.
The Eastern market is and ever will
be our main market, then why not
dispense with Frisco! Honey dealers
who only stand between the beekeep-
ers of California and the consumers of
the East and control the market and
shear the beekeeper of his profits. En-
terprsing spectators not content
with reasonable profit, resort to
rings and corners in order to wiring
from the hard listed producer his well
earned dollars. The products of the
cles of export and are subject to rings
and corners the same as grain and
other products. The failure in the
honey crop last season renders
the financial condition of bee
keepers this year of such character
as for them to secure at least
a fair price for their honey. The pres
ent wants of many compel immediate
shipments to Frisco,-all of which the
dealers seem to understand and avail
themselves of the circumstances by
offering a nominal price for honey.
We are informed that some of the
leading honey dealers on the coast
have notified some of the large deal
ers east not to order honey yet as they
will soon be able ia obtain it at much
lower figures. We are of the opinion
that there is a way of thwarting these
operations by the producers clubbing
together and shipping in large guam
titles and sending one of their number
through with the shipment to dispose
of the same to the best advantage.
We are informed that this matter will
be presented at the next meeting of
the Los Angeles Bee-keepers' Associa-
tion, on Saturday 18th inst, at Leck's
Hall, Los Angeles. We see no good
reason why this plan of marketing
honey cannot be carried into effect.
The plan is certainly feasible one,
and we think should be carried into
execution at once, as it would un-
doubtedly result in big gain to the
producers. Should this method OF
Shipping be adopted by bee-keepers
generally, it would make small rings
and little corners.

BEE KEEPERS COLUMN.
EDITED BY N. LEvERING.
The Bees Vocation.

DR.. Max Hedmond, the celebrated
savant, says in his physiological
Hints:n
This marvellous little being, the bee,
seems to have quite unique vocation,
viz: to assist and promote general life
propagation, even HUMAN propaga-
tion not excluded. AS astounding as
it may appear, this latter fact admits
now OF no doubt.
Since the first days of medical
science until about thirty years ago,
any grave disease of the human Quar-
les (Which organ of course, forms the
very ground basis to human propaga-
tion) had proven to be incurable, in
spite of any alleviating remedy which
merely served to retard the inevitable
sad end of the patient. AT the pres
ent day, however, we possess cer-
tain medical preparation of the bee,
perfect, inappreciable specificum
against all grave affections of the
ovaries. The homeopathic faculty es-
pecially hath fully evidenced the fact
and there is to-day no materia medica
or repertory wherein you will not find
prominent chapter about the hon ey
bee or Apis mettitica, and her specific
influence upon the above named or
gan.
Considering then the we'll known
fact that the bee during her life time
is messenger or carrier of UegtiUe
propagation by transferring during
her wanderings the germs of fructifi-
cation from plant to plant and from
blossom to blossom, we will in all ma
ture scarcely find second example of
so sublime character, to wit: an ap-
parently insignificant insect which,
besides many other valuable gifts and
qualities,-proves to be an assisting
necessity to vital propagation, eUen
after its oaOn death.
Will any materialist deny here the
prearrangement by divine power?
The bee herself seems almost con-
scious of her important relation to our
fairer human sex. Let company of
ladies and gentlemen approach bee
hive, and you will see the ladies very
seldom attacked, whilst their male
companions will have to take all kinds
of precautions to avoid the dreaded
stings.
In short, the highly remarkable
features known to-day in regard to
this little being are we'll apt to lead
the mind of man to very strong refec-
tions.
If were sent as a missionary to
warm up the icy soul of disbelievers,
l think I could achieve my task singly
with little bee in my hand. Don't
you think so?
Whenever an Infidel you see,
Who can't get rid of doubt,
Tell him little of the bee,
And he'll become aevout.

Exciting Arizona News.

SAN DIEGO, June 7th.-A gentle-
man who arrived last evening from
Lower California, reports that when
passing the Mexican camp near Ja-
cumbe Pass he was required to go
around the camp and not allowed to
come III. He represents that the In-
dians and Mexicans number about
one hundred, and said that they did
not want any difficulty, but wanted
the surrender OF the person who killed
the Indian week before last to be TAX
ell to San Rafael for trial, and are on
ly keeping the two herders AS hOstag-
es. The party have a strong position
and any attempt to dislodge them
would be difficult.
The Unioa's Tucson special says re-
ports from Camp Bowie, dated yester-
day, says a report reached there that
tile Indians were fighting among
themselves ten miles distant, and
that Toza had sent for soldiers.
Lieutenant Henly and party, with
thirty Indians, went at once and re-
turned yesterday reporting twelve In
dians killed and wounded. The cause
of the trouble was that unfriendly In
dians undertook to force ToZa on the
war path against the whites, but lost
their best men in the attempt. ToZa's
band came in and are now camped at
Bowie.
Generals Kautz and Oakes, with
Mr.. Clum and three troops of cavalry,
and 81 Indians, arrived yesterday and
a grand pow-wow will be held to-day.

tance below the line.
The Blaine Investigation.
WASHINGTON, June 7th.-The fol-
lowing is copy of the telegram re-
ceived by Knott, Thursday, aud which
he furnishes for publication:
"LoNDoN-To Chairman of House
Judiciary Committee at Washington
Il have just read in New York papers
| Scott's evidence about our bond trans
action, and canfully corrobrate it. /
never gave Mr.. Blaine any F. s. r. r.
bonds, directly or indirectly. have
three foreign railway contracts on my
hands which make it impossible for
me to leave without great pecuniary
loss, or 1 would gladly voluntarily
come home and so testify. can make
affidavit to this effect and mail it.
(Signed) JOSIAH CALDWELL"
The scene between Knott and Blaine
to-day in the room of the Judiciary
Committee, was at times of a most ex-
citing character, especially on the
part of Knott, in consequence of ques-
tions asked by Blaine which Knott
supposed impugned his honor. After
the sub Committee adjourned, Knott,
approaching Frye, a member of the
/ Committee and who had been In at
tendance as an advisory friend of
Blaine's, said to him:
''Mr. Frye, your friend Blaine is the
| God dam modest scoundrel in Ameri-
car
This remark or its equivalent hav-
ing already found its way into print,
it should be added that Frye replied:
"You forget yourself, Mr.. Knott"
"Yes'' said Knott. 81 do.n
He therefore Immediately withdrew
his remarks and apologized for having
made them.

EDITORS PREss.-Will you please
be kind enough to tell an amateur the
best way to save the swarms of bees?
1t cannot be possible that the apia-
rists have the same trouble that |
have had the last few days trying to
save a swarm; beating drums, blow
ing horns and ringing a bell, and
sprinkling them with water, trying to
get them to settle and then put them
in hive to have them swarm again. /
bought six swarms last year, lost two,
got no young swarms and am now
about to lose all the young swarms
this year. Also, please tell me the
