iFttscelianeous. THE QHHEN BRE.OO Saturday last (22" oil.) the i'jdiii'.urgh W ernei an Society met for the first lime this season, and we were happy to see a numerous uieeiiug. The first paper that was 4ijt)nlitretl to their notice was on the con- verston ot the larva of a working bee info it queen bee," t>y ",e Rev. ——, Dunbar, of Applegarih, Mr. [)Iilib;ir siates,il);it he noticed the operations of a hive 00 the loss of a queen for the first days)) was noise and confusion, when the loss was After this had a little subsided, in consequence of the loss being ascettainerl, the I bees, to avoid a state of anarchy, laid the foun- dation of five loyal ceils, and of four more the next day, and placed ihe larva of •» what is sup- posed 10 be) working bee, in ihem. At the end of fourteen days, a new queen issued forth from j ==_ one of the cells, and with an insiinc? Turkish wisdom and policy, proceeded immedi- ately to fear open the other royal cells, no-doubt with the determination of destroying what was likely to produce a rivai to her power. The working bees rebelled against this unconstit-u* tional exercise of authority, and hauled her Ma- jesty away from her job. They succeeded in protecting Ibe junior branches of the royal fami- Il, and were rewarded for their loyalty by the birth of a priocess. But il was of no nail; for the Czarina, who had, as it should seem, a pra- feiable claim, in virtue of the priority of her birth, killed her fair and unfortunate rival. Mr. Dunbar, in corroboration of the above fact of ihe" formation of an artificial queen, narrates an in- stance of its having been done by an artificial swarm also. A number of bees (not an uncom- mon circumstance) depended in a large cluster from the door of the hive; he suddenly removed the hive from their sight, and placed another in its room, containing empty ceils, having previ- ously taken Ihe precaution of putting into it about three illches square of pure honey const! containing larva and hooey, and the astonishment of fhe bees was very great when they entered -he (tew his-e, and missed iheir rich stores and their beloved monarch, the fair and siateiy qtieen j 'hey hustled about, in every direction; bat the next d?iy, finriing that the royal family had re- moved, and but taken away the treasury, they began to lay the foonoaiion of royal cells, mitf jn the course of lime made to fhemseJvas a new queen. Mr. Dunbar has repeated this latter ex- periment with great success.—Scotch Paper. The part of Ihe fortunate Youth has within ,these lew days been played off by a young mail named Samuel Garhaoi, in the employ of Messrs. Muiin, paper manufacturers. Thelford He had been frequently heard to speak of a very rich ullolt', a IFcker ;n London, and laltedy was con- stantly talking of his illness, and of the days that awaited himself in the event of his death at length a letter arrives (forged by himself) an- nouncing (lie old man's dissolution leaving him heir to many thousands iii Funds, and also a very large estate wiih a suitable mansion, &c,— A plan so contrived could not fail to gain credit amongst his acquaintances but as the money could not be got at, for some litfle time, he pre- vailed upon his landlord,one John Coddee Inmm, acarrer 01 sand, and hilhcnoa pauper, reeeiving weekly allowauce from the parish, who always appeared ui the roost abject poverty, to advance him a'considerable sum (upwards of £ 40 for present purposes. So completely was ihis old man overcome by the promises made him, that he not only gave up his ail to Garhain, but en- couraged hsro to cohabit wish his own child, actually himself and wife gave up their bed ;?> sleep in a closet, in order, a« be said, to m >ke h s rich s n in law, that was to be, aud his daughter the more comfortable. N" soooer load 'l is pretender got possession of the many years, hard earnings of this infatuated old fool" than he comm need a series of fr.fl.es and extrava- gancies, h, ordering- a large box coat, clothes WMhoai number, purchasing watches and jewels for his cura sp«s«, making his fellow wo kineii and acqtiain anres merry, by keeping open house at 'he !)oiph,n Ir.n, giving ihem money to chair h.in through Hie tow,, in triumph, as" Heir to ChiselhIHsl," and appointing them to different situations in his household, such as Stewards Game-keepers & Park keepers, &c. keeping up (he decep'iofi till ihe ili stored riches of his dupe were all and he then made his exit leaving Ins disappointed fa'h-r in law to bewail 'he loss of his gold as well as the sympathy of his friends.
