THE 



AMERICAN 



BEE 



EDITED BY SAMUEL WAGNER, 



" I here present thee with a hive of bees, laden some with wax, and some with honey. Fear 

 not to approach ! There are no wasps, there are no hornets here. If some wanton bee should 

 chance to buzz about thine ears, stand thy ground and hold thy hands ; there's noue will sting 

 thee if tbou strike not first. If any do, she hath honey in her bag will cure thee too." — Quarleb.
