Tm CTY FIoRA.-The burnt district Of Charles
ton now offers rare inducements for botanical
visit, and ramble through that once desolate Sec
ton Will convince the beholder that nature has
been prodigL Of her treasures and has covered
tina unsightly ruins with fovery carpet. 1t is
true that the different floral specimens are easily
counted but the desert is now blossoming like the
rose; and the change from desolation to beauty
viii at once attract the attention, and the eye will
return with pleasure to the waSy sea Of green veg
citation yariegated with white and yellow flowers.
Atpresent these so-called weeds have complete
ppossAssion Of the burnt district and have grown
and fourished to the exclusion Of the grass which
was formerly sparsely scattered around the burnt
bricks. The cows, deprived Of their accustomed
meals, have deserted this unpromising locality and
have betaken themselves TO the side and back
streets, where the grass grows on the payements,
and between the oobble-stones with wild lu1uri-
anoe. The scarcity Of labor and the necessity for
rstrenchment have induced the City Council to let
this grass flourish unmolested subject only to the
attacks Of the ravenous kline who roam in those
sections.
As the season advances the vegetation will in
crease, and different plants will be propagated
from seeds that have been lodged by the wind.
Already We notice several varieties Of fennel, the
wild chammomile, the poke, and the jamestown
bushes, the swo latter having attained vigorous
growth. The berries Of the poke have been used
for dyeing, and would make homely rouge for
the complexion, while the leaves, when properly
cooked are an excellent substitute for green's, and
were much sought after by the Confederate SOL
diers as . great addition to the army rations. OF
the jamestown weed it is almost useless to speak, its
virtues are wen known, and itis recommended by
the yarb doctors" as an infable cure for numerous
diseases When dried and smoked in a pipe it imme-
diately relieves asthmstcs, and in its various pre-
psrations is an important addition to the ''yerb-
bist's" stock Of simples, but We would advise the
ignorant to handle it carefully, as on account Of its
poisonous qualities it often kills. instead Of curing
The appearance Of the burnt district has been
much improved by these efforts of Nature to as
sert her supremacy, and the vegetation now cover
ing this spot is far more pleasing to the eye than
the bare earth and the burnt bricks that were once
visible. As it is impossible to expect in the pres
ant depressed state Of finances, that any general
eaorts will be made to rebuild this section, we are
,Siassaed to see that some Improvement has been
made in its appearance, and though it will never
become pleasure ground, it is no longer an eye
sore. - '''' ,-.-,

TIE HARMoN1oNs.-Weh had the pleasure Of at
tending the performance OF this corps last night,
and can safely assert that they stand unrivalled
among the profession. There are few persons who
are not familiar with the fun and drolery of an
Ethiopian Troupe, and it is at once seen that the
Harmonious make no false rretensions, but are
equal to any that have visited the city. The mo
desty Of the performers has induced them to as
sumo false names, but neither that or their color
ed faces could destroy their identity, as their
reputation as vocalists had long been es-
tablished. The comic songs we're rendered
with such mirth provoking effect that
they were repeatedly applauded, while the ''happy
colored boy, with his rolling eyes, witty tongue
and small handkerchief, kept up the enjoyment by
succession Of comic anecdotes that had the great
advantage Of being original. It would be useless
to criticise for all were perfect from the singst to
the dancist. We learn that the troupe have been
induced to continue their performances, and have
engaged the Hibernian Hall for the remainder Of
the week. As the weather is now prosperous, the
moon bright, and the skies clear, there will be no
difficulty presented, and We advise all who can to
attend, and they will hear good music and enjoy
hearty laugh.

The Dirty Birds.

This Is the epithet aptly applied by the
Chicago Times, to that political nostrum-
monger, THAD. STEVENS, and that unit
bank statesman, HENRY WILSON. The lat
ter is thus specially alluded to:
Wilson, In his speech near Hampton
Roads, Virginia. said that there would be
no impediment to Southern representation
in Congress if Union men were elected.
His speech disclosed that lie meant by this
that Virginia would be admitted to Con-
grcss provided she would elect Sena-
tors and Representatives who are members
OF the Radical party. This was the condi-
ton of admission made by him. Should
the State refuse to elect the men of that
party, she would be denied admission.
Wilson did not consider her Constitutional
Iclaim to representation. He did not dis
cuss the validity of her State government.
lie did not debate the natural right of a
people to be represented in Il government
they are taxed to support. These ques-
lions were to him of 10 moment in com
parisou with the one relating to the domi-
nancy Of a political party in the State
said Wilson, in fact, send men to Congress
who will vote as myself and Sumner and
! Drake and Yates direct, and we will give
them seats, but we will not admit men who
win not be subject to our direction.
The pledge to admit Republican Congress
men is an asseT ion that the State is entitled
to representation, or it is an assertion that
men of the Radical party will be admitted
in defiance of legal disabilities. The Rad
icals can take either horn of the dilemma
thus presented by Mr.. Wilson. There is 4
brassines abOuth his Hampton Roads speech
and the cool manner in which he state!
that Congress will be controlled by parti'
sanship, and not By law aud regard for the
public Interests in dealing with the ques-
ton Of Representations. showing IA con
, science so debauched that it is insensibi'
to shame, or so blinded by fanaticism tina
it is incapable of perceiving the infamy o
the assumption that mems political right
are to be determined by the fact of thei

Mania n POtu,

This is the disease which seems to be
affecting the leaders of the Rump Adolf
ton party of this State. Reader, did you
ever see a man with delirium tremGlS-ouc
who had snakes IN his boots, or the devil
in his head, after a too free indulgence in
bad whisky? If you have, and witnessed
the wild, unsettled motions of his eyes
his frequent starts and disposition to run.
as some unusual noise fell upon his shat
tered nerves, you can very readily imagine
the condition of the Rump leaders in this
State. They have been drunken for years
with usurped power, and been guilty OF
deeds that would make a mar of stoutest
nerve shudder. They are losing the slim
ulant that sustained them-power, and their
nerves are becoming shaky. As evidence
of what we say, just go into an assemblage
of the leaders of that party in this city, or
elsewhere in the State, and mention the
name of VALLANDIGHAM, and such a roll
ing of eyes and "rattling of dry bones"
wen venture o never saw or heard be-
fore. These chaps are afflicted with politi-
cal mania a potu, and VALLANDIGHAM is the
big copperhead "snake in their boots and
the devil in their head, and they are in
constant fear aud trembling lest he come
upon them in the shape of a great big
Democrat, embracing the whole party, OF
as United States Senator, sending Ben
WADE TO retirement; or, worse still, as
President of the United States, blowing the
Rump Congress and the entire Manhood
Suffrage" party to the devil. Hence they
are constantly jerking and lodging, will
an inclination to run, and always crying
out, Don't let him come near us! Ugh
the terrible eopperheadl Ugh! the BIZ
Democratic devil, he'll carry us Off. body
and soul! Keep him away, good people!
FAUST never eyinced more trepidation anC
fear when the devil came for him thai
these fellows do at the mere mention o
VKLLANDIGHAM. And well may they trem
BILE, for they know of what crimes the,
have been guilty, and they know, too, tina
retributive justice is rapidly "swingin.
round the circle" to call them to an &C
count.
