Grass Widows in Indiana.

A facetious correspondent of the Dayton

Wabash regions of Hoosierdom, noting the
condition of the country, the state of the
crops, the progress of the harvest, etc.,-the
two latter of which he reports as unusually
fne-discovered one peculiarly in every
town he tarred in. Hear him.

that Indiana, land particularly the Wabash)
is literally swarming with grass Widows
Every hotel or tavern has, or have had one
or more of those bewitcbing vixens domiciled
with them for ten days, which makes them
residents of the State of Indiana, and with
little hard swearing natives, too. At the
expiration of ten days suit is commenced
against some vile husband and, as matter
Of course, divorce is granted, if for no
other cause than incompatibility of temper
Here are congregated from all the States of

Under the Rose'-What it Means,

This proverbial expression, like most 9TH
ers that have been long in use, cannot be
traced with absolute certainty to its origin,
but can only be made the subject of con-
lectures more or less probable. Some Of
these conjectures are as follows:
l. 1t was once customary for the Popes to
consecrate roses, and use them as presents,
inexpensive to the giver, but Of great price
in the eyes of the credulous receiver. From
this originated the practice Of placing roses
over the doors of confessionals, and, as the
most profound secrecy was there observed,
the rose soon became an emblem of secrecy.
2. The expression took its origin from the
adoption of red and white roses, as the re-
spectve emblems of the houses of York and
Lancaster, during the bloody wars with which
they desolated England. These opposite
emblems were the signs Of the taverns near
the Parliament House in Westminster, where
were the headquarters of the two factions;
and as measures Of annoyance or of defense
were adopted in secret concave at one or
the other Of these taverns, everything secret
was said to be done "under the rose."
3. 1t is certain, however, that the rose was
the emblem Of secrecy long before confes
sionals were established, or Workers or Ian.
casterians plotted against each other. Har-
pocrates, the Roman God of Silence, was
represented as young man, with one finger
placed on his lips and rose in the other
hand. 1t was said that Cupid gave him the
rose to blibe him from betraying the amours
of Venus. The ancentstherefore scuptured
a rose over the doors or on the ceilings Of
their festive halls, as hint to the guests
that nothing witch was said in moments Of
conviviality was to be repeated elsewhere.
Some instances of the same practice are to
be found in modern buildings 1t was in the
pavilion of an Amsterdam burgomasters
couotry seat, and beneath stucco rose which
ornamented the ceiling, that William III
communicated to his host and another bur-
gomaster his intended invasion of EngIan
In the dining room of the "Bear Club" in
Birmingham England, there was once
carved rose in the centre Of the ceiling
under which it is said that the Jacobite
members of the Club, in its early days, used
to drink as their first toast, THE health of
the King, (under the rose,)" meaning the
pretende". In the hall of Wellington Castle
in Kent, was to be seen, few years ago, and
perhaps still, carving of a rose surrounded
by an inscription as follows:
Kentish true blue,
Take this as a token,
That what is said here
Under the rose is spoken"
In the al sence Of satisfactory evidence Of
any other origin, it may be regarded as tole-
rably certain that the phrase had the mytho.
logical origin last mentioned 1t is the white
rose to which allusion is made. The rose
which Harpocrates held in his hand was
white, and it is the white rose that Byron,
in "The Bride Of Aby1os," renders sacred to
the silence Of the tomb. lie says that over
the tomb of Zuleika
"a single rose is shedding
Its lovely lustre, meek and pale
1t looks ms planted 10y despair
So white, so faint, the slightest gale
Might whir the leaves on high"

The Bermudas.

Some seven hundred miles al sea, says the
New York Neeos, in parallel with Savan-
nah. (32 deg. n. there are clustered togeth-
er group Of small Islands formed on a cor
al reef. They occupy an. exceeding small
portion Of the surface Of this globe, contain
ing only about twenty square miles, or twelve
good sized western farm. There are some
four hundred in the group, only one of
which is of sny Importance, aud that is but
twenty miles in length and about one in
width. The islands, too, are low; no point
rises over FIVE hundred feet above the surface
Of the ocean, and they are often lost by the
navigator seeking them who, losing his rec
koning, may search in vain.
insignificant as the Bermuda Island appear
on the map, they are in many-ways remarka-
ble. The climate, owing probably to theil
close proximity to the Gulf stream, is equa

the unfoldir g bud, but fruits and vegetables

taneously with the verdue Of a more north
ern cline. Ali luxuriate and are in beauty
and abundance.
In these quiet little islands, so cut off
from the busy commercial world, Great
Britain, to whom they belong, has formed
powerful military DEPOT. There she has
spent millions of dollars in making her for
tifications imprngnable, and there ride at an
Choir in perfectly secure harbor. protected
from the attack of enemies, and safe in all
raising storms, a powerful navy. Thus in
this Gibraltar of America, her mighty men
of-war keep a sentinel watch over u.s. safely
guarded themselves, and watching at our
very door, In time of war the fleet can sal
ly forth, making incursions upon our coast
and leaving blood and desoation behind them

yond the reach of our most determined at
tacks.

line and the Gulf Of Mexico is the sceptre Of

paper Of July l9th:-"The plain, quiet and
unpre,ending appearance of Gov. Denver
added to bis known quality of fearlessness
is regarded as the secret Of bis success in
Kansas. If he desires to be Governor Of
that Territory, he can (as things look) long
continue so; for belief in the expectation Of
her refusing acceptance Of the late act Of
admission into the Union, is based, not on.
ly upon the supposition Of partisan feeling,
but of that interest Of individuals which
looks forward to day when Jim Lanes po.
