Having SWarRRRS.
~. Butler, in American Bee Journal, Western
Agriculturist.l

In large apiaries, and where natural
swarming is practiced every bee
keeper knows h%W important it is to
get swarms hived as quickly as pos
sible, to prevent several sWarms from
going into mass.
/ practice as follows: All my swarms
are caught in peach baskets on the end
of a pole. Take a basket and bore the
bottom all full of inch holes, and cut
away quite a good portion of the slaves,
so as to make it as open as possible ;
stick the inside full all around on the
slaves with small strips of comb, a
leather strap, six or seven inches long,
but through the bottom of the basket
and nailed on the inside, with a small
harness strap on the other end of the
strap. Then fasten to the end of the
pole a ring, snap into the ring and your
basket hangs in the form of a bell.
Take a light pole, with hook on the
end, and you have all that is required.
We suppose your hives are already
just where you want them to stand,
ready to receive the swarm, some brood
combs having been put in the hive.
Now, then, this hive has a cover, to cap
after the fashion of a bandbox. just
as the swarm is on the wing and they
have selected a lighting place, take the
basket in one hand, hook in the other,
and when about a quart has settled to
the tree, shake with the hook and put
the basket in the spot. just as soon as
the bees begin to gather on the basket,
lower the basket about a foot or SO and
keep the branch shaking with the hook.
and in less than five minutes you have
them all on the basket. Now carry to
the hive and one jerk will drop them on
top of the frame. Put on the cover
and your swarm is hived and out of
the way, and not a score of bees will
take wing after they are put in.
Towards evening you must put them in
whatever shape you want them. If for
honey stock, fill them up with combs
and brood and put on boxes.

pacing the floor for few moments, he
turned to the gentlemen and said
'The truth is, gentlemen, have
very little influence with this admin
istration."
This is the true story Of this histor-
ical statement of Lincoln's, as told by
an eye witness. The President, with
out further comment, then told the
gentlemen to cali the next morning
and he would see what could be done.
They called. The President handed
Gen. Mitchell an official paper, saying !:
"There is the appointment of your
friend to the position OF major In the
quarterlnaster's department." "ei
No further explanation was offered
by the President. The nature of the
interview with his war secretary was
never made public; but the net of the
President shows that he had, in fact,
some little influence with his atlminis-
tration.

1t is reported that the President will
present to the Senate for confirmation
the name of Col. John NJ. Harlan, OF
Louisville, for the vacant seat on the
Supreme Bench. Harlan is bitter
partisan-a man who has always been
found at the extreme outposts of Radi-
csilissn. Ever since the outbreak OF the
war, or ever since Republicanism had
Il foothold-it never had much more
in Kentucky, he has been the leader
of his party, its head, front and MAIN
stay. He is about forty years old.
His parents were natives of Kentucky,
and his father (James Harlan) was the
distinguished Whig politician who rep
resented the Mercer district in Con-
::ress from 1886 to 1889. His father was
also Secretary of State of Kentucky
from 1910 to 1874, and from 1850 to the
time of his death, in 1869 he was At
torney General of the State. Harlan
county, Ky, was named after Harlan's
grarduncle, who fell In battle with
Indians, at Blue Lick. In 1859, when
only twenty-four years of age, Harlan
ran for Congress in the Fayette district,
then called the Eighth, on the oppo-
sition ticket, and, after hard fight,
was defeated by the Democratic can
didate by Il majority of only g., In q
total vote of 1897.
When the war broke out he Joined
the Union army, and served for two
years as Colonel of the Tenth kentucky
Infantry. The death OF his father then
| compelled him to tender his resigna-
| ton. On returning to civil life Harlan
settled his fathers estate, and in the
same year (l663) he was elected At
torney General of the State on the
Union ticket, which was headed by
the late Governor Bramfette. Harian's
majority was 52,s52 in total vote ol
Is, ,632. Gov. Bramlette's majority was
t5O,9l7 At the close of his term he re-
moved to Louisville and returned te
the practice ofiaw. Harlan is probably
the best orator in kentucky, and is one
of the ablest and most successful mem
bers Of the bar in that State.
In 1871 Harlan was the Republican
candidate for Governor, and potIcd SO,
294 votes, against 12G, ,447 for tho Demo
cratic candidate. In 1875 he was again
the Republican candidate, and he then
increased his vote to 9O,795, against
i26, ,97G for Governor McCreury.

The following anecdote Is told of
Judge Abbott, one of the members Of
the House Investigating Committee
which went to South Carolina: "When
he was in Charleston he asked the old
darkey at work In his room what made
him so slow about building the fire.
The reply was: 'Fact is, Judge, dar is
no coal down stairs. I'se been up and
down do alley, and stole all the wood 1
could find, and in present delnor'lized
condition of society 1 can't do no bet
ter.''

Bullock and Lieut.. Edgerly went to the
shaft and demanded those below to come up
and surrender as they had warrant out for
their arrest, which the sheriff proceeded to
read, stating that this would be the last de-
mand made; that the soldiers were here,
and requested them to come out before he
should be compelled to resort to harsh
measures. After fifteen or twenty minutee'
consultation an answer was returned reading,
We will stay As long as we can! On receipt
Of this answer the officers Withdrew and dis.

ENGLAND PREPARINu FOR wA1.
London, Nov. 23.-It is said that the re-
csnt success Of the Russians in Asia, and the
probability that they will soon achieve q
decisive . victory At Plevna have brought
back the government to that state Of ankle
ty into which they were thrown by the first
raid across the Balkans. The papers that
support the premier" foreign policy, are
daily and vehemently demanding an active
Intervention Of England. It il stated that
the premier has informed the Russian min
lister that if Adrianople be taken and Con-
stantinopls jeopardized, there may be such
an outcry in England as to- make war on
the part of this country inevitable. Infor-
nation Of this declaration has been sent to
Russian headquarters, aud has made a
strong impression there. In these circum-
stances there is some reason for fearing that
the country may be dragged into the pre-.
sent conflict. Further ground for such ap.
prehensions is that within the last few hours
orders has been issued for the immediate
preparation of an army corps.
