Effay on Drunkennefs; by Joun Ls-

The author has colle&ed in this little 
pamphlet a great number of fa&s, all 
of which tend to-demonftrate the fatal 
effects of drunkennefs. If we cannot 
hope entirely to reform thofe who have 
delivered themfelves up to this fatal 
wice; yet fuch works as thefe may at 
Jeaft corre&t the evil; this is the aim of 
the author, and it is to be withed that 
fimilar means were adopted in every 
country, on purpofe to attain the fame 
end.

** Manuel néceffaire aux Villageois, 
pour soi#her les Abeilles, &c.”——The 
Villager’s Manual for the Manage- 
ment of Bees; fo as to enable him to 
reap the Fruit of their Labours, without 
doing them any Hurt in return. By 
C. P. Lomparp, Gardener near Paris. 
It has been a long time confidered 
as a problem among the Bee-fanciers, 
to invent a hive, which, while it fa- 
voured the multiplication and prefer- 
vation of that fpecies of animals, fhould 
at the fame time enable the owner to 
derive ali the poffible profit from their 
labours. To folve this, M. Lombard 
here prefents his readers with an hifto- 
rical detail of all the various Bee-hives 
hitherto invented, or now employed in 
the different departments of France, 
accompanied with his own obfervations 
on the advantages, or inconveniences 
refulting from their ufe. After enume- 
rating and comparing thefe, he is of 
opinion, that the one which he is. pleaf- 
ed to denominate ‘ Ruche Villageoi/fe,’ 
merits the preference. 
1. Becaufe it cofts but little ori- 
ginally. 
2. Becaufe it poffeffes a fufficient 
thicknefs to preferve an uniform tem- 
perature. 
3. Becaufe the upper part, where the 
infects begin firft to work, may at any 
time be removed, without endangering 
the life of a fingle bee. : 
It is impoffible to explain the parti- 
culars, without referring to the plates, 
with which this little work is furnifhed ; . 
it raay be neceflary however toremark, 
that many bee-hives have been con- 
ftructed in England, at leaft twenty 
years ago, on the fame principle, and 
that this plan, cheapnefs excepted, can 
pretend to no fuperiority whatfoever.
