this place that the first constitution OF the

town was burned by British soldiers, and
marks of their torch can still he traced in

THE WAX OF BEEs.-Wax is generated
in the bodies Of bees at will, Oozing out
between the scales If their abdomen in
little plates no larger than the top Of a
pins head. When bees are engaged
building rapidly the floor board is often
thickly sprinkled with the wax scales
which have fallen from the workman's
mouths. Each bee generates two scales
at time and is unable to do SO on scanty
diet, but must feed literally on honey
during the time. The consumption of
honey is very great when wax production
is going on. Liebeg was of opinion that
twenty pounds of honey were required to
manufacture one pound of wax.--EagIisA

"a LITTLE farm well titled, little

We never farcied large farms for those
Of moderate means, The large farms are
not worked so thoroughly as the smaller,
generally speaking, and large farms are
not apt to contain more waste land, that
might be made available to ditching, or
clearing off stumps or rocks. Then on a
small farm one can give more attention to
gardening, and to fruits, and by combin-
ing, these interests would thrive securely

SHEEP VS.. DOGS.

To show the injury inflicted upon
farmers who raise sheep, by the dog
nuisance, take the facts as presented
by the single county Of Franklin,
Indiana. From official and sworn
statements, there were GAO sheep
killed by dogs, valued by sworn APP
praisers at S2,064 IS, for which
there is no return, but worse than
nothing; for in addition to the loss
of sheep, there were 1000 dogs in
tho county 10 feed, making no re~
turns. each one eating as much as a
pig Or sheep, and many of them
owned and kept by families that are
partly kept by the county. The
people are taxed to support the dogs,
which in return, kill their sheep,
srobbing the people and the county Of
their earnings and wealth. If there
was sheep raised to each dog in
the county, and added to the number
of sheep killed, it would add 2,74O to
the sheep, which at the appraised
value, would add to the wealth of the
farmers and to the tax duplicate
$7,22S each year. These are facts
that should claim the serious con-
slderaton in our Legislature.

The Berlin Congress will be in
session several weeks. The proposed
reorganization of Bulgaria is regar-
ded as the all important question to
be solved, inasmuch as it is to decide
whether Europe or Russia shall ex-
ercise a prepouderating influence in
European Turkey. The Congress
could not deal hastily with so impor
tant and complex question. 1t is
further stated that the delays and
frequent adjournments show that the
intention is to examine carefully into
all matters brought up for considera-
tion--not simply to ratify foregone
conclusions.

A DEPUTY sHsRIFFs LUCK.

John Corners, deputy sheriff of st.

ty to Jefferson city, conveying to the
penitentiary prisoner named Jones,
and at one Of the small stations thirty
or forty miles from St. Louis, on the
Missouri Pacific road, the prisoner
cot away. Corners was dumb foun-
ded, and got off the train and pIun6

ing Just why, but anxious to do some
thing. He wandered out in the
country, until, tired and wet, he

in the cabin finally relented and let
him in. He took a seat, and being
tired, was soon half asleep. The old
negroes went out, and he dozed alone,
when there came a laundering knock
at the door. Corners startled up
and shouted, "Come in !"
The door opened and man enter
ed. He stared at Corners and Con-
ncrs stared at him. Then the visitor
gasped out:

The man was Jones, the escaped
prisoner BY one of the most res
markable condolences on record he
had, after escaping, walked into the
very jaws of danger again. Not one
time in a thousand could an officer
have been so lucky as Corners. lie
seized the prisoner with yell and
hung on to him. Twenty four hours
later Jones was in the penitentiary.

POLITICAL NOTES.


THERE is no doubt about Maine electing
her Republican ticket.
SOUTH CAROLINA has about decided that
she will not tip over tho Government this
time.
The main trouble In estimating the strength
of the National party is to tell when the wind
leaves of and the votes begin.
The Springfield RepuJlicaa thinks Senator
Edmunds the best Republican yet proposed for
the Presidential campaign Of 1850.
PORTSMOUTH, n. H., will hold its municipal
election on the Gth instant. The Green
hackers have nominated full ticket for city
officers.
EX-SENATOR TRUMBULL, of Illinois, says
that the boastcd strength Of the National party
in that State is fictitious, aud the next election
will prove It,
GENERAL GRANTS trust Is in the people
His faith Is well founded. So, too, they have
trusted him and may trust him again.-IrOy

THE Keokuk Iowa) Gate City advises the
Western Republicans to make a strong fight
for sound money, and to oppose all repudia-
| ton ideas with the Old-time vehemcnce.
The New Albany Ledger-StdHdard, which Is
one OF the few decent Democratic journals In
Indiana, spreads to the breeze the banner OF
Thomas A. Hendricks for the Presidential con.
test OF 1850.
THE Democratic State committee and the
editors Of the Democratic papers in Illinois are
to meet IN Springfield On the sth instant, tt
consult upon the proper management Of the
campaign.
MILTOS SAYLER says the Democratic party
has nothing in its record to defend or apollo
gize for. Those who hastily condemn Mr.. Say
Ter for this statement should reflect that he /,
lazy, and hates big job.
THE Jacksonville (Fla.) Union expresses til,
opinion that the nomination of Lieutenant
Governor Hull for Congress by the Democrats
of the second district of that State has made
the election Of Republican easy.

to I've their own successors when they prop

tion in many Of the Congressional districts
for change. JOHN RANDOLPH TICKER,
who represents in Congress the sixth district
of Virginia, and who is the ablest man in
the delegation from that State, will expert
encc some difficulty in securing a renomi-
nation, and the possibility is he will not re-

THE sOUTH CAROLINA CASE.

OF course this case is viewed and discussed
from two -points-irom that of State
which sets up State sovereignty as superior
to the Federal power in the case, and which
throws itself between the General Govern
ment and the proper enforcement OF its
laws in that State, On the one hand, and
from the side of the General Government,
which is using all proper agencies to enforce
its own revenue laws, and out of which
effort has arisen a case over which II collision
of authority is imminent. We will now
permit the Charleston Is, c. NGrs to pre-
sent the case on its peculiar side, and in its
own way. II says;
The revenue officers were In search of RED
MOND, aud supposed him to bo IN the house Oi
AMOS LADD. They charged upon the house
with arms in their hands. AMOS LADD, stand
ing on the threshold of his house snapped his
gun at the officers as they charged upon him
The officers fired at him and killed him. They
had no warrant for his arrest. They had NJ
right to invade his house, Had he been
charged with Illicit distillng there would have
been no Justification for killing disarned
man. There was no gang there was no "at
tack" by "mOOnshincrs y there was no shoot
ing by the officers "iu self'deiense.'

fairly as it could from its own standpoint,
but most certainly not as fairly and truth

NORTH CAROLINA passed through the
Modification troubles, such Ms those with
which South Carolina is now afflicted, sev-
eral years ago. The Bourbons attempted ia
assert the supreme power OF the State in
the matter of the custody of revenue officers
arrested for the performance of their legiti.
mate duties as agents of the General Gov.
ernment but were overruled by the State
Supreme Court which was fortunately com.
posed of judges who were loyal to the logi-
cal and much-abused results Of the war
But this mode of settlement should not b,
accepted as precedent for the South Caro-
lima case, in which State the Supreme Court
rs reorganized under the "GoD-like" HAMP
TON, is composed Of unreconstructed de
voices to the heresy Of States rights. TIL,

WISCONSIN FIRST DISTRICT.
