The marigoId, monks hood, orangc.Iay,

mcnon, says Dick, different opinions may
be entertained. From the rapidly OF the
fash and other circumstances, It may be
coniectnred that electricity Is concerned in
producing This appearance. Mr. Haggatn
Of Sweden, after observing The fash from

a considerable defiance from the petals,
found that The light proceeded from the
petals only; whence he concludes lhat
electrical light is caused By the pollen,

deserves the attention ofthe curious, and i
