Our Italian Queens.

We received last week four fine Ital-
ian queens from the apiary of Newton
lowering, of Orofino, Cal. Mr.. L. Is
one of the oldest apiarians in the
State, and has perhaps the finest stock
of pure Italians. We were very much
pleased with our royal pets of golden
hue. Had they been as dark as q Mo-
doc or as black as the ace of spades
the enormous express charges were
enough to make them appear as yell
low as the gold of Ophir. Their ma
jesties arrived in good order, and have
entered into new scenes and formed
new associations. When we intro
duced them and saw them surrounded
by a retinue of tiny subjects who
seemed to vie with each other in their
attentions to their new sovereigns, our
admiration was wrought up to fever
heat and as we watched the royal re-
ception and beheld these welcome dig
nitaries walking forth with stately
tread and queenly airs, robed in their
golden cOlors, without pull-back or
chignon, and attended by their loyal
subjects, We involuntarily exclaimed:
o beautiful golden queen.
The fairest that eye hath seen,
With stately tread she doth roam
Ger snowy fields OF comb. f.ff
When the muse suddenly dropped
into our memory box the following
beautiful lines: ~ -atti'a

MY NEW ITALIAN QUEEN.
BY JAMES MARLIN.

SO stately is thy step and mien,
Thou needs't no diadem TO show
That thou art every inch queen, a
AS true as reigns the moon below;
And sooth thou'rt OF regal line,
OF ancient name and "rix ht divine" 4
The eldest dynasty of earth, Tt
That saw the Assyrian empires birth,
And Traas, famed OF Homer's Tyre.
1t saw proud Rome her eagles raise.
And Venice in her palmy days,
The Adriatic's naughty bride.
1t saw them rise in pomp and pride,
And saw them sink in blood and crime,
Tho>e empires OF the olden lime
Outlived them all, thy royal line.
And reigned meath Italy's skies divine.
Tue lilies pale, by Arno's wave, 81 igO,f
The rose that blooms on virgil's grave,
Have lent such nectar to thy lip,
As envious fairies fain would sip. ti
But with thy tiny retinue, aa
To bathe thy feet in Western dew,
Thou'rt come to soil by freedom biest-
Like mans proud empires. moving West.
Here, though no Horace ever sung,
Or Cesar proud his legious led,
The flowers are sweet as on the fields
Where siumber Rome's historic dead. i
Wyoming's sweet romantic vale f
Hath flowers as fair and fields as broad
AS scent the breath of Eastern gale,
Or bard or Cesar ever tr ID. = ~ .
Then welcome. royal traveller here;
Begin thy peaceful Western reign;
Possess the dew upon the vines.
The flowers upon our boundless plains.

Long live the golden-belted queeni
Bright wanderer from Italy! .
Well rear thy palace on the green;
Yon hive beneath The cedar tree
Thy stately Buckingham shall be.
