Established in 1861, at Washington, by the late Samuel Wagner. 



"Bees work for man ; and yet they never bruise 

 Their master's flower, but leave it, having done, 

 As fair as ever, and as tit for use." 



"Ye light-winged laborers! still unwearied range 

 From flower to flower, your only love of change ! 

 Still be your envied lot — communion rare— 

 To wreathe contentment round a brow of care !" 



"Free as the air, yet in sti'ict order joined. 

 Unnumbered bodies with a single mind ! 

 And mingling multitudes perplex the view 

 Yet all in order apt, their tasks pursue." 



Dk. Evans.
