were coming down one of our busy, crowded streets
the other day Just behind three boys carrying large
gilt frame upon a band-barow, when we heard one of
them say to the one in the rear with roguish leer
over bis shoulder, ~ say, jim, shalwe run muck "
He was answered with the very classical expression of
Go H. old horse" We fancied we could divine wha.
running muck meant in this case, just before them

has not vet swept out among other filth with his
sweeping-machines. A great lazy lout of man had
planted an old door upon an empty barrel occupying
about half the sidewalk with "csndy-stand An
assortment Of sweetened posons to attract pennies
from children's pockets into his own. Running

and rested their load upon the sidewalk in charge of
ono bow while the others returned TO pick up apocet

The SEASON AROUND NEw-YoRK.-The farmers are
busy with their blowing and potato and corn planting
TIE oats arc Just up but not yet thick enough to
make the fields look green. Wheat is few inches
high, small and backward, but has healthy look.
Grass is very lae-many pastures are unit now for
grazing and moving lots are only just beginning to
look fully green. Pears, plums, peaches, cherries are
in bloom. Apples show the beautiful pink Of the
openng buds No trees are In full leaf and none but
the earliest show green coat-many are as bare as IN
winter. The weather has been cold, and we have had
but few days to drive men with thick winter clothing
on to seek the shady side of the street Last week
coal fires were not only comfortable but necessary TO
comfort. Garden vegetables are backward. We have
but a very small amount Of green nliDgs from the
open air. Radishss about the size of hazle-nut, are
hawked about the streets by the boys and girls Of
some Of the suburban Dutch gardens. We have new
potatoes from Bermuda at 81 a barrel, and fruit and
early vegetables from some warmer latitude than ours
begin to make their appearance. With us the prom

"All eyes are now directed towards America.
Twelve French buyers went out by last week S

whether the boasting accounts of their crops
can be substantiated.'
