The Springfield (Mass) Republican re-
p1rts: Abou; the time OF the late State cleo
ton and while party spirit ran high, an en-
ergetic Know Nothing canvasser, had IN a
hlwary speech delivered at Melville, in
Worcester county, worked III foreign pop
ulation up to point Of Indignation past all
endurance. Tho day following, as a crowd
Of freshmen were collected brooding over
theirs faaced injuries, u gentleman named
Hllen, noted for eccen rcity, advanced
among them, and to their great delight com
menced violent denunciation OF the new
party. Beneath his magic influence, the
alien audience became, in their own esu-
nation, the pillars Of the republic, and as he
warmed in his subject, Know Nothingism
withered to bare name under the Scorch-
ing touch, while cheer after cheer burst
from the excited throng now rapidly increas-
ing "Who," asked he, Gould our rail
roads," "lrishmen," was the enthusiastic
reply. "Wao dig our canals" irish
men," "Who build our state prisons ana
amshouses!" "Irishmen, murdered
hundred voices. "Who FILL them!'-
Waiting in vain for a reply, their whilom
champion, clcncing his Il i shouted, "lrish-
men-you vils-Irishmen."

A BorQrEL-We owe too many thanks
for expression to Mrs. Murphy for another
gorgeous bouquet, and basket of superior
Catawba grapes. In this bouquet we re-
cognzc some six or eight different varieties
ofperpetual roses, as many verbcnas, with
altheas, dahlias, tubcroses, and many other
choice clippings from the riches of Floras
Kingdom. 1t is much too fine for our rude
sanctum, and we have transferred it to the
rarlor.
1t is but just to say, in this connection,
that the Ottawa Floral Gardens and Nursery,
from which this rich bouquet was selected
are prepared to supply, at tritling cost,
every garden in town, not only with every
thing in the way of roses and ornamental
shrubbery, but with all kinds of fruit trees,
such as apples, cherries, peaches, pears,
apricots, &c. Sc, to an unlimited extent
As the season for setting out trees is now at
hand, we commend to the particular attcn-
ton of every one having rod of spare
ground, the advantages Of this excellent
nursery.
