Bbowssvillk, May 25U 1871.
Mb. Editor : Last Saturday proved
to be one of the liveliest dajs Brownsville
as witoessed r for .some . months. - The
streets were almost blockaded with teams,
the sidewalks crowded with busy fect
and basinsss men generally well pleased
with their days' Work, 'and went to . bed
thiak-kig that tbe fabulous town of II a 1-
sey, so lately grown into notoriety, had
not injured the trade ot Brownsvilleyet,
: One of the attractions of the day , was
horse show, at whieh. the claims tynd
superiorities of the diflerent -worses, in
the neighborhood vere urged npoa .the.
raisers of that kin4, .of .stock. Wr re
sorry there was not inCre animals . on ex
hibition, but what there ' waa-.ntade . s'
very creditable appearance, showing that
there are as good horses in Oregon as any
where else... . '
The Linn County Lodge of the I.O-
of G.T. met at the Good Templar, Hall
in tho afternoon ; quite a number of
members of, the different lodges of this
praiseworthy order were present, and the
lite and interest exhibited snowed very
unmistakably that the order' is in a
healthy condition.' Delegates were elec-;
ted to attend the State Temperance Con
vention that meets at Salem on the 16th
of June. - " ' ;"' '
' ' . y .i i ... ... . .
A public temperance meeting was held
t the M. E. Church in the evening ; the
attendance was good. Bey. A. Robede-.
livered a very logical and Dointcd address.
which went far to prove to the intelligent
audience present tht the use of iotoxi
catin? liquor as a beverage is a useless
as well as a Very wicked practicecntail
ing numberless evils upon . the human
system, as well as being very deleterious
to the moral welfare of society. He was
followed by tbe Kev. W. K. Bishop, who,
in his own laughable way, made lots of
fun for the boys, A few appropriate
songs were rendered by the singers, and
upon the whole the meeting passed off
pleasantly, and was considered a success.
JKrot. 1j. Uary, tae popular- lecturer on
Astronomy, has just been around and
gave us two of his highly instructive, and
entertaining exhibibitiors. lie has wttb
him an instrument called. a lellurion,
hicb is a remarkable piece "of inventive
genius, showing very accurately how the
earth and moon pass round the sun. caus
ing the different seasons of the year.' His
illustrations on canvass, shown by a lan
tern, of the planetary system, was very
complete, and seveal of us learned some
things we did not know before. Persons
going to hear the Professor need not be
atraid bat what they will get the worth
of their" money. 'i- We were sorry he was
not better patronized, as the attendance
on both evenings" was small. I .,

From tbe Versailles, (Mo.,) Gaiette.
Our readers will remember! that last
Vail, a conditional marriage between jack
Hams and Mrs. Jane Kroner, wee (jeret,
of this county, was chronicled, ia which
it was stipulated that should tieorge lru
ner ever return from Idaho, the marriage
should be ;held for nought. George
formerly was Jane's husband, bat several
years ago some difficulty having occurred,
they were divorced.
Tbe , married,? lile .ot : Monsieur and
Madame Rains was moving along smooth
ly enough until some ten days ago, when
one stormy evening George Bruner pot
in his appearance at the JKains mansion.
' George had been digging for. -gold in
Idaho and come home with , his pockets
stuffed full of it. As a matter of course
the hospitality of the Rains mansion was
extended to him, and George entertained
the family circle by descriptions of the
Heathen CbineCand ot his, own hair-
bieadth 'scapes from the griitly bears. .
: "The tale he told" revived in Mrs
Rains her latent love for the hero,' and
next morning Mr. Ramm "was - reminded
ol the Btupulations m hu marriage eon
tract. A few days after, Mr. Rains and
Bruner were in town together, consulting
lawyers and indulging in sundry and v
rious libations." ;- " "
Last Monday morning, at the adjourn
ed session of the Circuity Court, Rai
presented hia petition fora divoree, alleg
ing, aa a ease thsrofur, that his wife was
living in open adultery with one George
Brunei. "At the same time notice, was
waived, and an answer filed, virtually ad
mitting all the allegations in the petition.
Next morning a decree was asked from
the Court.: n J.--"., - l
His Honor, Judge Riee, however, gave
the parties to . understand ' that . they
were not ia Indiana. lie animadverted
in rather strong terms upon the proceed
ings. He said that the defendant's, an
swer, if submitted to the, Grand Jury,
might rttbjeet ber to criminal prosecu
tion. He remarked " that the plaintiff
swore that there was no collusion between
the" parties, yet, o the same day the -petition
was Lied, notice Is waived and
answer admitting the facts is CJed, and
next sy a decree is asked. There" was
sonttLiDg wrocjf . about this, and he
woaJi not fiiapoae-ot the ease until "the
next term of this Court. j 1

' There are thtee classes pf bees , in
hive the worker, queen and droHa. T
". Queens are raised by peculiar food fend
treatment from eggs that would other'
wise produce workers. - ,j - c
The worker is an "undovelopea female.
Workers, in tho absence !'of the queen,
sometimes lass, eggs. These invariably
produce drones, ;" , -r.
' The queen live from two to five years.
Tbe worker from two to throo months in
the working season, and from-six to eight ;
during thre seasorr of Test. . v,
' The queen is perfected 'in fifteen or' .
sixteen days from tho egg, "tho worker in
twenty to twenty-one, and the drone i in-twenty-four.
,,, f r
The queen usually commences layiug'
from Jtwo 4to tbr .thousand eggs in s
d&y," ,:' " . F 4i -jjV
Tbff impregnation of the queen always
takci place outside the hive, or) the wing,

cases, ne impregnation answers foflife".

The eggs of an npimpregnated' 'queen "
produces nothing but drones ; and- it id
generally; conceded' that ! impregnation
does not affect the Idrooe progeny jt con
scquently, the male pTogcoy of pnTflr
Italian queen is pure without ( regard to
the drone she has mated with. '
r The aueen and t worker . are provided
with stings ; but while the latter will use
it upon any provocation, the former will
only use it ori her own rank. "The drones-
have no sting.- -
One queen, as a rule; is all that is tole
rated in a hive ; bat previons to throw
ing off s-'fter ? ;swarmsr ; two or more'
queens are permitted in . tho samer hito
for a short time ; but the extra ones are
disposed of. In case, of superceding' a
queen, the old one is preserved until tho
new one ia fatted to take the place, yueens
have a deadly hatred for each other. Bad-
will destroy, if permitted, all queen Iarvser
or eeH in the' hive, and will fight each
other until there is but one 'Jiving one
left. -; -'' 1 ' ' '
Bees gather three kinds of products
Propolis, from the gum trees and shrubs ,
for fastening the joints and cracks of their
hives ; pollen, or bee bread, from flowers,
for feeding their young and themselves f
and honey, which- constitutes the! main!
food of the hive. .Water is ahio carried
into the hive during the breeding season,
for mixing with. the food for their young ;
salt is also made use of for the same puf-'
pose, c : - i -
Wax; like fat; is an 'animal product,
and is secreted by the bees in thin scales-from-
the underside of the body. While
doing this, they consume large quantities
of honey from fifteen to twenty pounds
for every pound of wax secreted.
' A frightened bee, or one filled '.with
honey, is not disposed to sting.
A good swarm contains about twonty
thousand ,bees.
A strong or medium hive, with a sood
laying queen, is never seriously troubled
with the moth worm; bat a hive with
out a queen or a means of raising one ia
sure to be taken' by them. " .r .
Bees recognise each other by their
The first one or two weeks of the yoaoe
bee's life' is spent inside the hive, as a
nurse or a wax worker;
The range of a bee's flight for food ia
generally . within two or three mile ;
much greater range is bat of little benefit
to them. : ' : s f1' - ' ... : ;
