How/IMMlnal, HOolirlf.—The fiat spring show
of the season took place yesterday, in the garden' of the
society, and notwithstanding the wintry character of the
day, was fashionably attended. The gardens, as might be
expected, looked rather desolate, but the drawls's@ was
somewhat relieved by the fine effect of Mr. Dureene's
noble fountain, which, we regret to learn, is about to be
removed. We understand that Mr. Dwaine has offered to
leave it in the gardens on very liberal terms, but that the
counsel of the society do not consider themselves justified
in incurring the expense. It would be very desirable thal
some arrangement should be come to which would obviate
the memeity of removing from the gardens a work of art
which during the whole of last season was looked upon as
its most attractive ornament. Whv not make its purchase
commemorative of the royal festivities which are now ap-
proaching! It would not be an ungraceful compliment to
the new vice-pnridect to make the fountain a fixture, and
call it after his royal highness. The show yesterday con-
elated of hyacinths and such other dowers as are hardy
enough to defy the rigours of an English spring. The
specimens were as usual exceedingly good of their kind,
and were the subjects of general commendstion. A mili-
tary band played operatic selections during the day.

The child cried sad straggled, but the prisoner held it be-

ever, she took it up by the legs and dashed its bead spied
