THE TULIP MANIA.-The tulip mania
which prevailed to so great an extent in
Holland, in the 18th century, was believed,
until lately, to have had its origin in pas
sion for flowers. There is abundant rea-
son, however, for supposing that this pas
sion for flowers was only a pretext, which
served to disguise an unconquerable pro
pensily for gaming. The process was
similar TO speculations in certain kinds OF
stocks or real estate. An individual would
| agree to give n certain price. say a thou.
sand forms, for a species of tulip, to be
delivered in one month. This flower he
never saw, nor expected TO see. AT
the expiration Of the month, if the prices
Of this species of tulip had advanced, he
cxac'e ed not the tulip, but the difference in
the price. Besides, this traffic in tulips
was not carried on in gardens or conserva-
tories, but in coffee houses and on Change.
II was frequently the case that neither the
seller nor the purchaser ever saw the ia
lips which brought them offiuence or ruin,
We repeat, this tulip mania had its rise in
spirit of gaming which took the place OF
lotteries and dice, and, for time, seemed
to paralyze The hand Of industry, pervading
' every rank and occupation, and reducing to
; poverty and despair thousands Of indlvidu-
ais. In one city in Holland the traffic in
tulips is said to have amounted in three
: years 10 ten millions of forms at the end
Of which time the people came to thei'
senses and wondered at their folly. 1t is
related that during this tulip mania, vex.
a,ious accident happened to a broker who
had undertaken to cultivate in his garder
some rare knls Of tulips. He employed
a sailor one day to do small job Of work
and gave him for recompence. piece o
bread and dried herring. The sailor re
tired to the summer house to eat his lun
: chcon, and seeing on the window what b'
took to be some onions, he siezed them q
once, and ate thom with his herring will

u nation Of the merchant may be ess,l
. . conceived, when, on entering his summer
, u house, he found that three or four tuiil
l. bulbs, valued at several thousand forms
), had been sacrificed to appease the hunge
Of the gormand'zing sailor.
The tulip mania, though under ano,he
: name, often RACES in this country to grea
