EXTI:AORDINART VEGETATION.— The extra°
ordinary progress of vegetation during seasonable and plenti-
ful rain has frequently excited admiration and surprise ;
but that seeds, after being sown, should arrive to perfection
in as many seconds as by the process of nature they re-
&c., might be
quire days in the finest climates, is a curiosity which few
persons have witnessed. Franklin was the first who applied
the mighty power of electricity to the purposes of vegetation,
ata any
few sseeacsoonn4,s. a dish..iv e ofw esrael salad, turnips,eedigly
amused with
obtainedbywhich,in wh
this experiment on Monday evening, when it was admirably
performed by Mr. Charles to a most fashionable and numerous
audience. Upon this occasion, die lady of Mr. Waller O'Grady,
who with most of the Lord Chief Baron's family was present,
at the request of Mr. Charles, placed some mould in a tin case
and shook some seeds over it. In three seconds from the time
Mr. Charles applied it to die electrifying machine, the cover was
removed, when there appeared a plentiful growth of tongue-
grass and parsley. Mr. Charles very politely promised a lady
present to produce the same effect on some flower-seeds, which
she requested permission 'to send to him for that purpose next
morning.—( Dublin Freeman's Journal. )
