THE BUSY BEE.-s-Laet week Messrs. Gar.
row & Proudfoot, be.rriaters of Goderich, at
the instance of Mr. J. M. Sinclair, Of this
village, issued a writ against George A.
Deadman, druggist, also of this village, to
cause him to prevent his bees from besieging
the.plaintiff's premises. It is averred that
defendent keeps 400 colonies of bees on his
lot adjoining plaintiff's, and that the said
bees attack and take away preserves and
other saccharine eat,ebles from his dwelling,
leaving as a remembrance waxed floors,
walls. kitchen utensils, household furniture
gad clothing. It is understood the ease
will be defended, so we shall soon know
whether the humble bee can be interfered
with in his neighborly visits. The early
visitations at the bees call to mind 't e old
edge:
A swarm of bees in May is worth a 1 ad et ay,
Asarm of bee S in Juni is not a bit' too soon,'
A swarm of bees in July is not wortli a fly.
