SIR: We transmit herewith the re-
port of the Committee on Statistics,
and in accordance with instructions,

Nian6iilaS - lys St. j 0hn5 river De-
tween Welaka and Drayton Island
inclusive, from October l, 1878, to
June 1, 1879. In nearly every in
stance the returns made are full and
accurate. At two or three points the
shipping transactions were necessa-
rily approximated in the absence of
any record of the same, but due care
has been taken that the returns SUBJ
mitted were carefully estimated, that
our data for future action should be
trustworthy.
We have to remark in this connec-
ton that in every instance your COM
mittee met with the most cheerful
cooperation from shippers and 9th
ers. and found the people decidedly
alive TO the Importance OF the sub
iect of through transportation. All
manifested a desire to see some
changes introduced that time and ex-
perience have discovered to be essen
tial to any productive interests. The
proposition for a through line between
here and New York City, under the
control of one general management,
was favorably received, and the opin;
ion expressed that such an arrange
ment once perfected, would obviate
to considerable extent the objec-
tions to the present system Of trans
portation. AS to the tariff of rates
charged by the different transporta-
ton lines, we heard no objections.
The opinion seemed to prevail that
they are as low as could reasonably
be expected, or consistent with a
healthy competition.
In the opinion of your committee,
the benefits of a through line are
manifold, and of such a character
that they may be easily understood
but in our advocacy of it we dis
claim all opposition or feeling as
against the present steamboat man
ayers, or proprietors of steamboat OF
railroad lines. Our only motive is to
seek close and better market through
the aid of transportation companies
Steamboat managers are interested
in this equally with the producers
Unless we can, through the co-opera'
ton of these companies, secure GER
tain and profitable market for ouI
products, the business of fruit and
vegetable culture must necessarily
decline. The success of this industry
depends wholly on the celebrity In

The Italian Honey Bees.

The Italian Honey Bees.
Editors of The Florida Agriculturist
The question is often asked with
those unacquainted with the Italian
bee, in what respect are they superior
to the native bee of this country?
First-1'he Italian bees are more
prolific, they swarm earlier, and more
frequently.
Second-They are less sensitive to
cold than the native bee.
Third-They are less liable to sting,
hence easier handled.
Fourth-They are more industri-
Gus, more courageous, and active in
self.detence.
Flfth-They are proof against the
moth miller which has DESTROYED its
thousands of our native bees. With an
experiance of eighteen years with
them, we never knew a swarm of
Italian bees containing fertile queen
to be destroyed by the moth.
Sixth-They guard their hives
against robbers much better.
: Seventh = Their disposition to
gather and store honey is much
greater. They gather honey from
May flowers, that the native bee does
not. They can be seen in large num-
hers at. work on 'ss1e e.sseonsa crop ),
red clover where scarcely native
bee can be seen. And when placed
side by side, all conditions being
equal, and alike favorable, the Ital-
ians have nearly, if not doubled
them.
Eighth-The life of our native bee
in the working season ranges from
thirty to sixty days, while that of
the italian ranges from seventy to
ninety days. The inexperienced
will want to know how we can deter
mine this fact, which is so easy to
know. "First, there is as much diff.
ference in color, between the two races
of bees, as there is between the white
man and the black; the Italians be.
ing of a bright golden color, while
the native bee is black. We intro.
duce an italian queen into a native
swarm by destroying the native
queen. AS soon as the Italian queen
has been received, she commences to
lay, of course every egg now dispos-
tied Is an Italian, which produces an
entirely different colored bee. 1t
takes twenty one days for the worker
bee to hatch. BY this time the black
bees have decreased one.third or
more in number. At this period the
eggs from the Italian queen begins
to hatch, and if honey has been abun-
dant, the bees have gathered freely,
the Italian queen has deposited her
eggs accordingly, and large numbers
are hatched daily which keeps the
hive well supplied with bees, while
the exposure is so great many ways
the life of the worker bee is sacrafed.
They. wear their wings off, birds
catch them, toads eat them, they are
caught out in storms, they are beat
down by winds when loaded with
honey, and never rise again; they get
caught in spider webs" and many
other ways, that in the course of from
forty to sixty days they are gone.

into an Italian swarm /; the same

AS the Holidays are approaching
we again call public attention to
the bargains offered at the Quincy
Hall, Sc Downey Block. l.. Harris,
the proprietor of this well regulated
clothing house, cannot be under
sold by any of his competitors, and
he will continue to reduce his inn
mense stock of clothing at prices
never before known for cheapness
in the history of Los Angeles.
The art of dressing well is one
that needs cultivation In men just
the same as any other human ac-
complishment. Some men seem
to have the art as an instinct, and
always look presentable in what
ever attire they may see fit to
show themselves, but the great
majority need to study their dress.
To such especially, and to all in
general, we recommend the cloth
ing house of l.. Jacoby.
Mr.. Fred w. Kohl, an old and
highly respected citizen of Los An

State Legislature. He had been q
resident of this county for the past
twenty years ana was at one tiine
proprietor of the Lafayette Hotel
in this city. The funeral will take
place from his late residence to-
morrow Sunday at $3.50 A. NJ. and
proceed to Anaheim by special
train.

judgment and the range of reading
matter merits the appreciation
even of the studious. The list oil

cal year will admit of many valua.

Robertson's "SchO0l."

In view of the general interest
which is being taken in the forth
coming entertainments in aid of
the Episcopal Church, we give a
synopsis of "School," the society
comedy which will be acted by Los
Angeles Amateurs the first two
evenings:
The first act opens with wood
scene, discovering the female
scholars attending the "College
House," engaged inlistening to the
story Of Cinderella, read from o
book by Bella, a charity scholar
and an orphan of unknown parents.
The Principals, DR.. and Mrs. SUIT
cliffe, enter in the midst of q dis
cussion as to what is love. The
pedantic but kind-hearted precep-
tor vainly endeavors to give def
milton of the tender passion, after
which the girls pass off the stage,
when Krux. q hypocritical under
teacher, makes his appearance. He
encounters Bella, who has returned
to obtain Mrs. SATELLITES ) overshoes,
proposes marriage to her and is in
dignantly rejected. Shortly after
Lord Beaufoy and Jack Poyntz en-
ter upon the scene to enjoy sports
mans breakfast, at which they are
joined by Farintosh, a superanuat-
ed beau, who urges upon his lord
ship, who is likewise his nephew
and heir apparent, the propriety of
marrying Naomi Tighe, an or
phaned West Indian helress, then
at the neighboring school, which
proposal the nobleman resolutely
refuses. Bella, flying from an in
furiated bull, chasing her and
Naomi, drops one of her shoes,
which is picked up by Beaufoy. The
bull is shot by Poyntz, who there
by makes the acquaintance of Ma
omi, while his lordship becomes
enamored Of Bella. The second act,
which can be suppressed as an epi-
sode. simply gives school exam
ination, attended by the Beau,
Beaufoy and Poyntz. The third
act is devoted to the accidental
meeting Of Bella and Beaufoy, and
Of Naomi and Poyntz. The lovers
indulge in moonlight stroll
separately, In the course Of which
Beaufoy presents Bella with q ring.
The walk and interview is watched
by Krux, who reports it to his
principals, in consequence of which
the charity pupil is banished the
SCHOOL. A period of six weeks
elapses, during the course of which
Beau Farin;osh is taken i'll and lies
almost at the point Of death. Upon
recovery, he learns Bella to be the
daughter of his only son, and goes
to the school to claim her as his
heiress and grandchild. In the
garden he encounters Poyntz, who
Is clandestinely visiting Naomi,
charged by her with the errand oi
seeking tidipgs as to the disappear
anee of her schoolgirl friend. Far.
intosh experiences intense disap-
pointment at the unwelcome
expulsion of his newly-found
grandchild. when Lord Beaufoy ap'
pears and explains that she has
eloped at his solicitation. His mo-
tives and their consequences are
misconstrusd until Bella returns
among her former schoolmates, ano
is announced as Lady Beaufoy
whereupon the play closes with the
presentation, by his lordship, of O
pair Of glass slippers to his bride
thus practically terminating The
story OF Cinderella, with the mar
ration of which the comedy COM

1t may not be improper for me to
call your attention to the frequen-
cy with which We have been called
upon in the last few years to la
ment over the defalcations of the
officers who have had in trust
money belonging to the city. In
| formation was received on the 4th
Instant to the effect that the pres
ent City Tax Collector was missing
and after having had his books ex-
amined deficit of about $4,000
was ascertained in his accounts.
Steps were Immediately taken by
the proper officers to protect the in.
terest of the city by attaching all
property kuown.to belong to the
bondsmen of the defaulting Col
lector. The money may be recov-
cred from the securities on his Off
cial bond; still the fact is apparent
that the city ia thus far heavy
loser by reason of the carelessness,
disregard of law and criminal con-
duct of those in whom the people
placed their trust. And in view of
