TRANSFERRI NG BEES..—Messrs. Editors:—
I noticed in a line 'paper . an inquiry respecting
the best time for transferring, bees, and although
the inquiry seems to be fully answered in a
late Nu., I beg the privilege of submitting a
few noire definite remarks. As to the time,
there are various opinions with as many wri
ters. but suppose we lay aside theory and take
reason fur our guide. The breeding seasim
commences. (generally) in March, and young
bees are constantly issuing until its close,which
is about October. The queen &posits in
April and May, about 6000 eggs per month.—
In the latter part of June there is a relaxation
ill the di-position of eggs. In August it in
creases again. It will he seen that the smal
lest deposne is in June and Jul.y Now if we
transfer a swarm in April or May, it is very
evident that we shall destroy one swarm in
the destruction of eggs. chrysalis or larva ;
and bees are very reluctant to leave when the
hive contains either; nor are they apt to lie
content in their tow habitation. Now it ap
pears to me that if we transfer when there is
the smallest• deposition of eat , . it will be the
best time. But there are other cousiderations,
viz : if we transfer immediately after the issue
of the first swarm we shall get them with
out a queen, fur the old queen leaves with
the first swarm, and another must he raised,
which occupies time to the amount of front 9
to 13 days, according to the forwardness of the
larva.
Again, if we delay until the swarming sea
son is over. they wtll not gather honey enough
to sustain them through winter. I think we
must therefore come to the conclusion that the
be t and safest time to transfer is about-the time
of the issuing of the °second swarm as recom
mended by ‘Vr. Weeks In his little manual.
Hive the second swarm. and then proceed to
drive and colonize all together which will form
a strong colony. In case a second swarm noes
not issue within thirteen days after the first
issue. thin they may be transferred. Should
bad weather ensue after transferring. feeding
must be had resource to or the colony may, be
lost by starvation.
A u-ord as to the lllndus Operandi. The
process of transferring by fumigation should
be performed with care, as there is danger of
carrying it so far as to deprive them of life.
Drying with water is a safe method, hut that
should be done with care, and in a slow man
ner, or many may be drowned.
' I leave the subject with the wish that any
one taking exceptions to any of the above
statements will make it manifest.—Cunivator.
CTIEMIATRy AND A GRICITLTORE-CHARCOAL:
.--Dew, rain, and snow exhibits very sensible
traces of ammonia, and tliis principle—highly
advantageous, and even indispensable to vegc.
table developement and health, is limit by evap
oration unless absorbed and, fixed by some
substance capable of intercepting and retaining
it for the use of plants. The expet intents of
chemists, clearly demonstrate the fact that
common charcoal may be used for this impor:
taut purpose with perfect success, as it is
Ca
pable of absorbing ninety times its weight in
,ammoniacal gas. with which it parts on the oc
currence of every rain, and is thereby carried
into the soil, where partly', no doubt, by the
voltaic action exerted by the spongeoles of
plants, ;t is introduced itto the vegetable sys
tem and circulation, and becomes the principle
source of the nitrogen so indispensable to their
health and growth. We are - not warranted,
perhaps.- in regarding charcoal as a manure to
itself as it is a substance nearly, if not quite
indesiractible, but it is nevertheless capable of
exerting the offices of such and may be re
garded. as a most efficient caterer of the
food. of plants, and which it does most munifi
cently provide. The absorbtion of ammo
ma and carbonic acid—the latter of which
is ias essential to vegetable health and in
crement. as the former, at least in some de
gree, is-not confined to humid seasons , or falls
,
of rain . .or snow; it constantly absorbs both
from the atmosphere, and retains them in such
a way and tinder the control of such laws as
render them at all times easily available by the
roots of plants. When applied - to the surface
of soils previously enriched by the application
of putrescent manures. it seizes upon the vola.
gases which are liberated during, decompo
sition; and thus preserves them from dissipa
tion and waste. Some farmers are in the prac.
tics of applying grourn) charcoal to the surface
in - the fall and winter, and, speak of its action
as 'salutary..

of the Indians now in the city was going up the
avenue clothed in such apparel as .civilization
waelleapingr upon him. Feeling them of no
manner of use, lie took off his pantaloops,
threw. them over his arm, and strode up the
avenue, attracting quite as muchattention with
them on his arm as if they had been on his
legs.

a7young lady walk as thoueh a flea was biting
her on'each hip; it ie so fascinating. She is
just the match for the dandy who, steps like

Tamp Fly.
The Brassica tribe of vegetables . .' (turner);

a word signifying to leap, It is sontetitn'ss
called the turuep flea. sand flea;' &e. The
same or a very similar insert is sometimes
quite destructive to cucumbers and other . vines,.
while they are in the first leaf. In ,England
this beetle, or flea, is called " the,fly." It is
the most formidable enemy to the turnep cul
ture. and great precautions are used to guard
against its ravages. In this country it also not
untrequently destroys the turnep crop, almost
as soon PS it makes its appearance„ above
ground. Various remedies have been devised
against ittfin-tt as sprinkling the plant with plits
t• r. air-larked lime. ashes. watering the plants
with alkaline i r Rend 1.9h1111/111S. '&1!:'&e•
. ,
The best a pplicatiims are uti4onhtedly those
which most promote the growth of,the plants
because as soon as they are in rough leaf, they.
arc safe
At a late meeting of the Royal Agricultural
Society's Council, variims remedies for the
attack of the fly were proposed and
. thscussed.
Nlr. Beard, agent to the Duke of Buckingham
mentioned an experiment he had tried. He
took an old sack, ripped it open, and nailed it
to a pole the size of a pitch-fork handle, leav
ing the ends of the pole about:eight inches lon
ger at each end than the sacking. He then
smeared one side with tar, after which two
men drew the sacking. tarred side downwards,
regularly over the' field, letting it sweep the
ground at an angle of about forty-five degrees,
fresh tarring with a brush as alien as required.
He caught great numbers of the beetles or thee
and saved the crop. lie has pursued the plan
for several ears, and has not had occasion to
plow tip a single acre from the •effects of the
ily. Ile prefers gis tar, tnlconsequence
having a stronger scrim. It is sometimes ne
cessary to go over a field more than once, hut
the work can be done with great expe
dition.
Another gentleman spoke of his experience
which had been very successful. A month
before he begins to sow his turneps, he pro
vides vessels for the reception of the seed, ad
ding to every twenty pounds of seed, half a
pint of linseed oil, taking care to have it well
mixed. then adds a pound of flour of sulphur.
and every morning has the whole rubbed be
tween Ow hands Co get the seed in a proper
state for drilling. lie has practised this mode
for twenty years without a single failure. '
There is also another insect which does con
siderable damage to turneps, radishes, &e..
commonly called the maggot (.9ntholnyia
B;u7sica:r of etitoinnlogiiis.)
The parent fly deposits eggs near the crown
of the plants—the larvx. as soon as hateheu,
make their way into the root. which they per
forate in every direction. living there till full
grua•u and ready to pass into their other stages.
Whole fields of turneps and radishes are some
times rendered worthless by them.
Kollar says—•• the only way of diminishing
the destructive fir is to pull op. and carry
away betimes. the plants attacked by the far•
vw. which may be easily discovered by their
(lull dead color, and the withering of their
leaves in the sunshine."
MANURE FOR FRUIT TREES.-NO tree ap
pears to be more benetitted by animal manures
that the peach tree. We may often, observe
this when it grows near a barn yard, so as to
reach the manure, that the growth is greater,
the leaves greener, and the fruit lamer, than
when it stands on sterile ground ; and even as
a general rule, fruit of the same variety is fla
vored in proportion to its size ; the larger the
liner. Urme may be very advantageously ap
plied to this tree, especially while it is email.
as well as to young apple trees. It not only
hastens their growth, but, by its offensive odor
repels the borer from the latter, and the peach
worm (tEgeria) from the former. •A. small
tree will bear a pint once a fortnight, and per
haps more and oftener for I have never injured
any of my trees by this application, and con
sequently have not ascertained the amonnt
which may be used upon them; certainly large
trees will bear much more.
Murrox.=We mean to repeat at least .a
thousand times, till: what we say has some
effect upon.cior countreynaen, lima pound of
lean, tender. juicy .mutton.- can be- raised for
half the cost of the same quantity of fat pork;
that it is infinitely healthier food, especially. in
the summer season, is more agreeable to the .
palite. when one gets accustomed to it; and
that those who eat it- become more muscular,
and can. do more work with greater ease to
themselves'than those who eat fat pork. We
know nothing more delicate than smoked mut
ten hams of SouthdoWn breed of sheep—veni
son itself is not superior. Sheep can be kept
in fine growing order where other &made
animals will scarcely exist, and thousands of
acres in the State, under an enlightened system
of sheep husbandry, may be made to pay a
good interest, where now they are nearly dead
property in the bands of their present owners.
CORE FOE HEAVES IN HORSES.-A farmer
informs us that the he has recently cured two
of his horses, winch had the heaves bAlly, by
the use of the following remedy :
To 3 quarts sweet milk, add a tea-spoonful
of sulphuric acid, (oil of vitrot,) and mix with
the horses' feed. Give at first, three times a
week, and afterwards once or twice as there
may seem occaslon for a fett , weeks longer.—
Our informant says ;here was little appearance
of the heaves after the first week.
To PREVENT THE SMOKISO OF A LAMP.-
Soak the wick in strong vinegar, and dry it
well before you use it; it will then burn sweet
and pleasant. and give much satisfaction for
the trifling trouble in preparing it. Lamp
smoke is not only disagreeable to the smell,
but hurtful to the lungs.
LEGAL ADVICE.—There. is a- well known
custom prevai•ing in our criminal courts of as
signingcounsel to such prisoners as have no one
one to defend. On one . occasion, the court
finding a man accused of theft, s pit without
entinel, said to a wag . of a lawyer who was
resent, " Mr.—, please withdraw with the
visoner, confer with him, and then Ore him
such counsel as may he heat for his interest.—
The lawyer'and his client withdrew ; and in
fifteen or twentc minutes the lawyer returned
into the court aione, s"" ti'llere is
. the prison
er?" asked the court. "He is gone. your
honor." said the hopeful legal limb. " " Your
honor told me to give him the best advice I
could fur his interest; and as he said he was
guilty,'l thought the best counsel I could give
him was to cut and run,{ which he too Vat
once."

Circumstances make the man, and very Alen ' us i n
the present case, the Per years there has been a
steadily increasing interest felt for the vegetable king
dom: Latterly,,thie taste has been partially gratified
by the literary magazines, which owe,their popularity,
in a great measure, to' beautiful tower prints that
adorn them., ,Orieripeciniery, a tiontb,.liciw,ever,is not
enougfi, nor is it requiredin such connection. A work
relating exclusively ter the , subject, is wanted by the I
public, and this wanti the present =terries ictend
ed•to supply. ' "
•We will mention in the 'outset that no univenad
peaces *ill be found in its pages. We have never
beard a secret worth knowing from, nor been cured of
a deadly disease, by an Indian, or a seventh son of a
seventh son. or any of the genus; the medical preten;
sions of all which, are' utterly loathe and despise.
• Preceded by a short introduction o Physiology, and
a' view of the Natural end Linnwan Systems, the work
will be devoted to aseparate consideration of each plant.
Together with our own information, we shall draw on
the standard works on Chemistryi and Medicine, com
bining every useful item of knowledge, and without
leogening its value, prestnait in a coneise and pleasing
form. Obtaining our supplies from the same sources
as the bee, we hole to secrete as elegant a sweet for
the mind, as it does for the body. The properties of
each; snore especially the medicinal, will be confirmed,
in a great number of , instances, by personal experience.
To this loin be added its' history ; its meaning in the
language of flowers rend poetry, either original or se.
leeted, fronxthe gems of the children of song.
The whole'illustrated by splendid Colored Engrav
ings, taken from nature, full size, and finished in the
highest style of modem sit.
' This work is designed to'bo eminently popular in its
application; and'th to is enough of that which is strait•
ger than fiction , about - it, to render it, in no ordinary
dagree, interesting and instructive. • •
