The Honey Bee.

The honey-bee Is an inflamible crit
ter, sudden in his impreshuns and
hasty in his conclusions, or end.
His natral disposishun iz warm
cross between red pepper in the pod
and fusel oil, and his moral bias iz
'git out Ov mi way.n
They have a long boldly; divided in
the middle by waist spot, but their
physikal importance lies at the termi-
nus of their suberb, in the shape Of a
javelin.
The iavelin il always loaded, and
stands reddy to unload at minnit's
warning, and enters a man as still as
thought, as spry as lightning, and as
full oph melankolly as the tOothake.
Bees never argy a case; they settle
awl ov their differences Ov Opinyun by
letting their javelin fly, and are as
certain to hit az mule liz.
Bees are not lOng-lived-Ikant state
list how long their lives are, out
kno, from instinkt and Observashun,
that emmy critter, be he bug or be he
devil, who is mad all the time and
stings every good chance he kan git,
generally dies early.
The only way tew git the exact fite-

A Clever Monkey.

\ French cook 50 trained a monkey
as to make him useful in pIuckiug-his
poultry and winged game for the spit.
The monkey was one day following
his occupation at the open window of
the back kitchen, and had just pluck
ed one of the brace Of patridges, when
a hawk pomced upon it and carried il
off. Poor Pug was in sad fright, well
knowing the licking that awaited him.
Never despair, however, was his mot
to. He piucked his courage and the
remaining partridge, and laid the bird
in the win low. The hawk, pleased
with the feast, returned for another
tit-bit, when Pug seized him, and, in
spite of his scratching and screechiug,
plucked him alive, and laid him aud
the partridge down before the cook,
and with n gesture stronger than lam
guage seemed to say, DTS all right:
there's your brace of birds-a fair eX-
change is no robbery"

with exquisite teeth, well kept as they
could be; his lips painted, as it We're,
with indigo, indicating days Of suffer

hands were as fair and delicate as any
girls. Every part of his dress and
person was evidently accustomed to
the utmost care. His face was the
most beautiful and attractive TO me [
