In the wear 1915, the Treasurers of the Gin.

We mention with pleasure, that the approach
Of the warm season has materially checked the
nrdor and virulence Of many political combat
ants; and that the papers which we receive,
contain much less Of mutual abuse and crimi-
nation than formerly. Several editors have
intimated to their readers, an intention to
stake recess from official duty for season.
others, instead Of indammatory harrangues and
violent political appeals fill their columns with
articles on Botany. Agriculture. Sc. Col.
Stone is employed, apparently. in a history OF
the rise, progress and decline Of the Turkish
Empire; the discourse of the Now York Amer
lean is on "Trees;" and Major Noah having
received drubbinS, will, we presume, keep
quiet for season. To the remaining Hotspurs
Of the field, we would suggest the proprety ol
following their examples.
