In a straight line, almost with the We
locity Of a bullet. The hunters watched
attentively the course they took ana then
set of in the same direction, stumbling
along over twisted roots and fallen
trees with their eyes turned up TO the
sky. In this way they traced the honey
laden bees to their hive in the hollow
trunk of a blasted oak, where, after
buzzing about for a moment, they en-
tered a hole about so feet from the
ground.
TWO of the bee hunters now piled
their axes vigorously at the foot OF
the tree to level it to the ground. The
mere spectators and amateurs, in the
meantime, drew of to cautious dis
lance, to be out of the way OF the
falling of the tree and the vengeance OF
its inmates.
The Earring blows of the AK seemed to
have no effect in alarming or disturbing
this most industrious community. They
continued to ply at their usual occu-
pations, some arriving full-freighted
into port, others sallying forth on new
expeditions, like so many merchantmen
in a money-making metropolis, little
suspicious of impending bankruptcy and
downfall Even loud crack which an
nounced the disrupture of the trunk
failed to divert their attention from the
intense pursuit of gain. At length, down
came the tree with tremendous crash,
bursting open from end to end, and
displaying all the boarded treasures OF
the commonwealth.
One of the hunters Immediately ran
up with wisp of lighted hay as a
defense against the bees. The latter,
however, made no attack and sought no
revenge; they seemed stupef1ed by the
catastrophe and unsuSpicous OF Its
cause and remained crawling and
buzzing about the ruins without offer
ing us any molestation.
Every one of the party now fell TO-
with spoon and hunting knife, to scoop
out the flakes of honeycomb with which
the hollow trunk was stored. Some OF
them were of old date and a deep

The beautiful forest in which we were
encamped abounded in bee trees-that
is to say, trees in the decayed trunks
of which wild bees had established their
hives. 1t is surprising in what count
less swarms the bees havc overspread
the Far West within but a moderate
number of years. The Indians con-
slider them the harbinger of the white
man, as the buffalo is of the red man,
and say that in proportion as the bee
advances the Indian and buffalo retire.
We are always accustomed to asso-
ciate the hum of the beehive with the
farmhouse and flower garden and to
consider those industrious little animals
as connected with the busy haunts OF
man. and 1 am told that the wild bee
is seldom to be met with any great dis
lance from the frontier. They have
been the heraldS of civilization, stead
tasty preceding it as it advanced from
the Atlantic borders, and some OF the
ancient settlers of the West pretend
to give the very year when the honey
bee first crossed the Mississippi. The
Indians with surprise found the mol
dering trees of their forests suddenly
teeming with ambrosial sweets, and
nothing, am told, can exceed the
greedy relish with which they banquet
for the first time upon this bought
luxury of the wilderness.

In the fall were devoured upon the
spot. Every, stark bee hunter was TO
be seen with a rich morsel in his hand
dripping about his fingers and dlsap
pearing as rapidly as a cream tart
before the holiday appetite OF school-
boy.
Nor was It the bee hunters alone
that profited by the downfall OF this
industrious community. AS If the bees
would carry through the simiitude OF
their habits with those of laboriops and
gainful man, I beheld numbers from
rival hives arriving on eager wing, to
enrich themselves with the ruins OF
their neighborS. These busted them
selves as eagerly and cheerfully as so
many wreckerS on an Indiaman that
has driven on shore-plunging into the
cells of the broken honeycombs. ban
quoting greedily on the spoil, and then
winging their way full-freighted to
their homes. AS to the poor proprietors
of the ruin, they seemed to have no
heart to do anything, not even to taste
the nectar that flowed around them,
but crawled backward and forward, In
vacant deSolation, as have seen poor
fellow with his hands in his pockets,
whistling vacantly and despondingly
about the ruins of his house that had
been burnt.
It is difficult to describe the bewilder-
ment and confusion of the bees of the
bankrupt hive who had been absent al
the time of the catastrophe, and who
arrived from time to time with full
cargoeS from abroad. At first they
wheeled about in the air, in the place
where the fallen tree had once reared
it's head, astonished at finding it all
vacuum. At length, as If compre-
hending their disaster, they settled
down in clusters on a dry branch OF
