A MUSCHAUsEsIsx FINALLY DISPOSED OF
The great Arrowsmitb hoax, published more
than a year ago by the London Times and
never fairly denied by that paper has at last
been completely wiped out as with sponge by
tie Times special correspondent who went t.
discover what truth there might have been in it.
tie found il to have been pure hoax, the sim
pie minded Arrowsmith was awfally sold, by
some waggish travellers, and the great Times was
sold by ArrOwsmith. But the whole absurdity
has now got its quistuf.

JUDGE BUTLER's GROUND ALNoyDs-It
turns out that many Of the seeds and roots dis
tributed are gross impOsitiOns. and many men,
bers Of Congress have been greatly annoyed by
the complaints Of their constituents of the utter
worthlessness, and in many cases, of the nox-
iOus character Of thDse horticultural and agri-
cultural specimens. Honorable gentlemen
who thought they were strengthening them
selves 1t home-making fast friends by such
little attentiOnS-haye been disagreeabIy ayak-
ened from the pleasant delusiOns by the recent
OF letters OF irOnical thanks, or positive abuse
for imposing on unsuspecting farmers and gar
deners the seeds Of some pestient weed or
creepers, labeled with some high sounding
Latin or Greek name. The venerable JUDGE
Butler, Senator from South Carolina got into
serious scrape by some Of these little atten-
tons. Having received several parcels of n
new and very rare species OF fruit or vegetable
labeled " "Ground Almonds" he transmitted
quantity OF them TO his constituents who planted
them In various parts Of the State The seeds
were In good condition, and germinated rapid
ly, coming up In the shape Of q rich luxurious
grass, which quickly spread over the whole
country, choking and extinguishing all other
plants, and carrying everything before it. The
unfortunate recipients OF this new Nessian
shirt, discovered too late that their Senator
bad, under the name Of ground almonds.
imposed on them the seed Of that pestiIentiaI
grass, the great terror Of Southern planters.
known as coco. Mr. Butler had n yery la
oorlous and vexatiOus task in responding to
the numerous letters of complaint from his con-
sutuents, In regard TO what many of them
considered very sorry practical Joke in a dig
