Advices of its receipt were received in Napier this w^ek, with the addition that in opening the l>ox a live bee was discovered, which had found the voyage rather long for liking, and was nearly passing in its [ checks in consequence. A little care I and tending, however, brought it ' round, and now of the most interesting of that box curios is the bee which made the voyage as a stowaway.
