E)A'l‘EN’fl‘ Bee IEive.—'l‘lie attention
of the public is called to a new aiirl valu-
able improvement in the coiistriir:t.iun of Bee
Hives for which the subscriber has secured a
patent. This hive is constructed with at view
to the preservatioii ofthe bees from that de-
.<ll'll(‘ll\'€‘ and deadly cneriiy. the worm, an end
which it is believed has never before been frilly
accuiiiplislied. It is composed of several shift-
ing compartments or drawers. to eiilicr or any
riririiber of which the bees may be confined at
pleasure, and on either lrecoruiug filled with
honey it cart be taken out and the honey retriev-
ed wiihout irjaiy to or froiri the bees. The
ciinipartiiiciiis are tirade with oblique bottom.-'
with an appertrire ranging through each from
the top to the liottoiii. This leaves no lodgerrieut
for the worm except a receptacle at the bottom
\Vl.‘l(_'ll is filled with aslies. which in a short. time
deprives him of life. This hive is l)elievctl to
be superior to any other which has been intro-
duced, and is sold at the low price of $4 for an
individual right and hive.
The best evidence ofthe merits of the hive
is the general approbation which it meets with
wlierever introduced. During the short time
since the patent was secured, the su.bse.ribr-r
has put tip some 30 or 4-0 in the7towu of Red-
diug, wlicre persons wishing to obtain iiifurnia~
lion. may inquire.
This I-Iive took the premium at the late fair
at Danbury, the first at which it has been ex-
liibiied. ELIJAH GRUMMt)I\'D.

RESPECTABLE PEOPLE.
or MRS. i-zmm c. EMBURY-.
Did it. ever enter into your brain, gentle
reader, to attempt defiiiiiig the limits ofthe
ilebaterilr-le land of respet't:rbilit.y ? Did you
ever try to map out its botti'id.rries, and to de-
fiiie tl.e vcriia"rile right of those who aspire
to dwell within its territory ? Trust me,
there are few more curious subjects of reflec-
tion—few more puzzling ttttll.l.t'l‘S of investi-
gation, for, like the Atalzintis of aiicient nav-
g.-itors, no two opinions coincide i'vspectinr_r
its positon, and br:lore a.~c riainirig its limits,
it will be ii:-cessrry not only to discover how
but wlieie t'ue-laud lies. ill I wt.-i‘e called to
depict it, ttll'l.l'lll’lli'S I should describe it as a
sort of tablclaud, lyingat the foot ofthe rrioirn-
taius ofaiisiocr-acy, and bordered on the other
side by the bleak anrl desolate plains of pov-
city. A country the richer inliabitiints of
which, are continually employed in levellirig
the iueqiialities wliich exist bl tween them and
their lo;tii~r iicighboi‘s, while the hufnbler
eiiing the b;it‘riei‘s which keep off the low-
laiid boi'ilei'ei‘s. To become at (.lL"IlIZl:'fl of this
iei'i'itoi'y, it is requisite th it one should pos-
sess werilth enough to enable him to live
without the do-gi'iirl:iiioi'i of labor‘, that he
should pay due dilligeiicc to the dc~c.oittri:s
of society, and that he should be utterly
oblivious of any pl.betan ancestry. The
more trifling l'('L]l1lSllt'S of virtue and honor,
and nobleui ss of soul, though admitted to be
very proper additions to his claims, may yet
be r.-iitiri.-ly dispensed with, if he be very rich
and well skilled in Pllt1l'ISttlCl.=t(’.t. It is not
gr-nerally expeceted that the i_nh:tbit:ints shall
occupy tliree story l..;uscs with two well
ftiruislied parlors, arranged sometvliat alter
the in-an oer of Pepi.-.’s garden.
‘Tree nods to tree, each alloy has a brother,
Arid one halfihe garden but rtflects the other.’
While with regard to the appartments
which are not thrown open to the inspection
of the world, no stipulation is made, and the
comforts to be found there must depend upon
the means or the will ofthe respectable oc-
cupiiiii. It would be a curious subject of
iriquiry, to ascertain the variety of devices
which are employed in order to secure, and
retain a position in this desireable region
What ii voluiue of vanity and folly,-—na_v of
vice and crime might be unfold:-dl how

IBISIIMEN IN ABIEIIICA. é\’.c.
In the year 1334, just previous to a very
exciting election in New York. the Irish vo-
ters were coaxed and flattered by both par-
ties for their‘ ‘swert voices ;’ :ind, in such in
ly the abode of generous roiuaiiee, the girl;
sol’d'hei‘self to to the embraces of an ()Cl.tIgt"-l
narian, ciinningly coiiiriviiig, at the suniel
time, to make the world believe that she was
offei‘ing hcrsi-lfan unwilling sacrifice to grab l
itiide.
For five years the youthful ivife devcted
herself in the most exemplary manner to
her infii-in lmsbrincl. She. was eiiiphziiiciilly
a second selfto him, for she supplied him
with ears, eyes and senses as was frilly
proved by the fact that on his death bed, he
bequcatlied her his whole fortune, to the ex
clusion of those claimants upon his affection.
and justice, which nature hzid given him.—-
‘.\lrs. Blazon became a widow at twenty live.
-and the world now regards her as it model
ofdignity and propriety. Totilly incapable
ofa generoiis seiiiiinent of affection, she de-
termined never to give herselfanotliei‘ master
and i'ej«=r:tinr: \\'lIl]~Pql1ttl scorn those who
sought her riclmess, and those who admired
her iixeeeding beauty, she gathered around
all the appliances of wealth, and now lives
like an eastern princess, in the midst of
those whose service her gold has pttrchased.
Mrs. Blnzon is generally regarded as one of
the most exemplary of women. I-Icr car-
riage is frequently Sl’€_f| for hours at the door
ol the great public institutions for the relief
of the rlistressed; she isindefaiigable in fiel-
ting up rag’ fairs,-she never omits presiding
in all the dignity of hill blotvn beauty at
one of the best filled tables in all the charita-
ble bazai's,——her name heads every list of
subscribers to the building of churches, or
for the fitting out of missions,-she has edu-
cated several young clergymen at her own
lexpense.—h:is adopted and portioncd two
young girls, who under her influence, went
jokes, :1 voice lull ofkindness, and manners
{‘.lit1l'ttClt‘l'lZ:"Cl by all the courtesy of an old,

Simeon Cotirtly is the most
money that ever bowed at the shrine of main-
mon. Gold is his idol: he has heaped up;
Lre.isure till he can scarce tell who shalll
gather it, and the tears of widows and ot‘-''
pliiins, the heart’s blood ofnoble and gener-
ous uteri have watered the soil which gaivei
this large increase. Yet Mr. Couitly hasi
never wronged any one in his life,—he has?
never dealt unjustly with a neighboi',——he
values reputation too much to be guilty of,
such a folly. In another view ofilie rii:iitet',l
he is also a highly respectable iuun, for he
never ltirris a. deaf ear to the claims of Char-
ity,—provided Charity carries a book and
records thenarnes of her fl‘lt‘.l‘_(lS. He never
refuses a liberal donation to his cliurch, for
with his dread of death, as the mighty mon-
arch who will confiscate all his wealth, is
ruiirgled an awful shrinking train that thick
ilarkness w'nieh- shrouds the unknown future
and Mr. Couitly hopes that, as ‘he that giv-
eili to the poor‘ lendeth toihe Lord,’ he shall
be able, by and by, to make a compromise
with the Almighty, and receive a mansion
above, in lieu of the monies now bestowed in
alnis. It is only another‘ method of lending
his money on usury, a sort ofsiiilcing fund
investment. Narrow minded, penurious,
qiierulous and unhappy, he passes his life

li‘eept't‘S of gi'ogeries, in short the refuse’
white population of I-loriolulu. It was a!-'
ruiiqi--d that Clrarleton should go to England
and defeat the object of the Sandwich Islands‘
Coniniission, by iiialriiig charges of bad‘
faith. &c. He secured his passage in Simp-
son’s nauie; both went on board the vessel,
which was about to sail, but Simpson re-
turned, with rrrrl/rarity/from C/iarlton to act
as Consul. ' _
Charlton arrived in England in advance
of the Coniuiissioners, and was siiccessfull
in cri-atinga prejudice with the English‘
Govt-rnnient against the Sandwich Islanders‘
-——c|iiefly by representing that they‘ were‘
wholly under A'nerican influence, and that-
the rights of the English residents were‘
rlisreg-.ircled. But when the commission at-'
rived his statements were disapproved’, and
he was di.=graced. The British Govern:
ment zivowed their willingness to acknowl-
edge the independence of the islands._
In the meantime at the Islands Simpson‘
had become involved in difficulties with the‘
Government, and wrote to Mr. Barron, the‘
British Consul at 'I‘i-pic in Mexico, making’
S.-‘l'l0US cltarges against the Government tin
desiring the presence ofa naval force imme-
diutelv. Sir George Paulet was then sent’-
ihiiher by Admiral I-Iotves and Sim-psorit
had an interview with him at once. The‘
seizure soon followed as is already known.
VVe copy from the letter in the Atlas the
f0ll0~\\'ll'lQ,’ account of the treatment which‘
the Aineiican and French Consuls and oth-
ers received from Sir George;
“Mr. Ilooper, American Acting consttl, imtnedi-'
ately upon the arrival of‘ the ship called on board to‘
pay his respects. He was met by an officer, who‘
told him that he could not be received as consul :-
that he. was charged with having iusiiltcd the consul»
of Her Britaunic Majesty, &c. M. Dudoit the con-
siil of France. next appeared. The same message
was given him. He walked up to Lord’ I’a;u'lef,-
and replied—-“Sir, I came on board your ship in
citizeii’s dress, expecting to be received as a gentle-
man. I did not come to bargain for a saftrte‘. I
and by a blackguard—and I shall take the first op-
portiiiiity to inform my government ofthe insult.‘
cast upon her representative.” Lord Paulet disa
claimed all intention to insult him, and endeavored
to e.\plaiii the matter, by saying that Mr. Simpson
was on board, and that it would not be pleasant for’
them to meet, and wound up by requesting Mr.
Dirdoit, in his official capacity, to recognize .'Mr.
Simpson as English consul. But he left him. The_
agent on the part of the government, who visited
the ship was likewise grossly insulted. As is cus—
toniary at lrlono1i1lu,amimber of the merchants
came of}', among whom was G. Pelby, Esq. agent
of the lIurlsriii’s Bay Comyany, to pay their re-
spects, and invite the commander and officers to
partake of their liospitalities ashore. They were
hitroditced by a friend of Lord Paulet.’s. He un-
'cci'enioiiioiisly turned his back upon them, and
:walked aft. Afterward he sent for their introducer,
and demanded to know wiry he had broiightt;
parcel of men on board the ship to make complaints
