King Tawiao's bodyguard is described by a gentleman who saw it at Alexaudra as a corps of tatterdemalions, whom the famous description given by Falstaff of his ecarcecrow company, would not be inapplicable. It is composed, of ill-fed and worse-clad fellows, who are of all sizes and ages, whose attempts at milstary drill would tickle the sides of stolidity itself, and whose uniform consists simply in no two of them being similarly arranged. Old glazed tablecloths, battered belltopers, and such like articles are pretty well distributed amongst them. The American champion bee-keeper, Mr Jones, of Beeton, Cal., states that in 1879, from 300 colonies of bees, he obtained 75,000 lbs. of honey; and in 1880, from 400 colonies, 20,000 lbs, worth 2000dols. The latter was a bad honey year. During the latter year he secured 600 new colonies from the 400, and commenced 1881 with 1000 colonies of bees, valued at 7000dols, independent of the cost of the hives. Mr Jones expects to clear 10,000dols, this year, unless something unforseen occurs.
