A Discovery ISrrREsrIsG TO FLORISTS.
The Paris correspondent ofthe St Louis Re.
publican tells us of a most beautiful and inter
esting discovery which has lately been made by
a celebrated Partisan horticulturist, by the name
of Hobart:
II was persuaded tsays hc) TO 60 to his rooms
a few days since, and assure you / had no rca-
son 10 regret the long walk had taken. Be-
meath large glass case, -four or five feet in
and as many in circumference, were PLACED
pots Of roses, japonicas, pinks, dahlias. china
asters. etc. etc., all r bud. BY means Of
certain gas, invented by himself. and which is
made to pass by gutIa percha tube to any pot
required, Mr. Hobart causes the instantaneous
blooming Of the flowers. The ladies in the
room asked successively for roses, dahlias. jap
onicas, and saw Them burst into full bloom and
beauty in second. 1t was really wonderful.
MIR. tiobartis now trying to improve on his
discovery, and TO make the gas more portable,
and its application less visible.-The secret is
of course his. and his rooms are crowded every
day with the most delighted spectators | wish
! could send you the lovely camilla received.
which when asked for was so tightly enyeloped
in the green leaves os its calix, that the color
of lis flower could not even be guessed at; and
yet the requestwas hardly ont of my lips when
the beautiful white camilla was in my hand.
When he has made little more progress, Mr..
Hobart intends to get out patent and deliver
his discovery 10 the pubic"

HoAxING LEARNED BODIES.
broadest and most laughable attempt Of
this kind we ever heard of, is related by
the venerable Mathew Carey of Judge
Breck enridge, the elder The Judge, it
seems, had a mortal antipathy to phllo>
sophcal societies, which was the more
remarkable from his being scientific
and well read man. But he at length
explained the mystery, by stating that he
had been rejected by the American PHI
osophical Society, Of which he was a
candidate fol membership in revenge for
democratic vote he had given in the
Legislature of Pennsylvania against
what was termed the "province money.
And he resolved to be revenged in re-.
turn. He not only wrote his satirical
work called Modern Chivalry, but he
palmed upon that body some most ridic-
ulous deccplions. Among other things,
he took his grandmother's fan, and hav>
ing ingenlously twisted, gummed and
painted and prepared it, sent it TO the
society as the wing Of ba, ! Mathew
Carey says, 1t was received with due
solemnity, and vote of thanks was
passed to the donor. A debate arose as
TO the species Of bat to which it belongs
ed-and committee of seven was ap-
pointed to ascertain whether ii was the
wing Of Madagascar or Canada bat.
The committee sat three weeks, and al
ter consulting Buttons Natural History
and Goldsmllh's Animated Nature, they
reported that it must have belonged to
a Madagascar bat. 1t was pronounced
the greatest curiosity in the Museum,
except large sheet of brown paper
which he hung in the chimney and dis
guised with SCOT and dirt, and palmed
upon the society as part Of Brahmin's
shirt -
