ROSES IN WINTER. there are apoch-
ryphal stories concerning MayAowers already
in bloom, stories originating, as we believe,
with the romancer of the Transcript, no one
will contend that there is reliable supply at
the present time. Dafodils do not take the
winds of our out door March with beauty"
nor do
violets dim,
But sweeter than the lids of Juno's eyes,
Or Cytherea's breath.
nor "pale primroses," for that matter. Those
who want flowers at this season must not look
for the free offerings of Dame Nature who, at
this season and in this country, is as surely as
the wife of Tom O'Shanter. But there are
who know how to make reluctant nature work
upon compulsion" and yield her choicest flo
raj treasures, while yet
"Cauld blew the bitter, biting North"
Among these is Mr.. G. F. Bryant, CT Wood
fords Corner, Westbrook, who now has very
large collection Of plants and Towering shrubs
in full bloom. Roses, japonicas, daisies, hello
tropes and very large variety of other flowers
in the greatest profusion may be obtained of
him. Now is just the time to obtain these
beautiful flowers in all their freshness and
glory.
PORTLAND LIGHT lNFANTRY.--To-night the
Portland Light Infantry will give promenade
concert at City Hall. The Fourth Of March
has always been a favorite night in this city
with the public for INDUCING in dance, only
two other evenings in the year standing high
err in the popular estimation, viz: Thanksgiv-
ing night and the night of the I'D Of Februa-
ry. But apart from this the Infantry dances
are very popular in this community, and iudg
ing by the great success that attended their
last promenade concert, when City Hall was so
crowded that it was almost impossible the first
of the evening to torn the sets, we shall ex-
pect to see similar attendance this evening.
The Infantry deserve grand house tonight
for they are popular as citizens and have made
a reputation for their proficiency in drill and
the duties Of soldier, that is not surpassed by
any company this side of Boston, and it is by
showing our appreciation of their merits that
we incte them to greater exertions in the fu-
ture. Chandler's Band furnishes the music,
which will be of superior character

The CupsuPT1c CLUB-During the past few
months number of our citizens have held
meetings to consult upon improvement in
stock, raising of CATTLE speed OF horses, breed OF
cows, and other kindred subjects. The inter-
est in these meetings has constantly increased ,
and the gentlemen have now formed them
selves into club known known as the Soup
suptic."
There is an excellent library connected with
the club, not extensive, but choice works upon
these topics have been obtained at considera-
BILE expense The club have also the most del
icate tubes of French importation to test the
quality and quantity of cream. The subject
for discussion at the next meeting at their
rooms on Congress stree will be Chow do we
know who has the best cow"
Tests as to quality of cream and milk will be
made and other matters of interest presented.

JUSTICE. In our report of the citizens. meet
ing on Wednesday evening we said General
Anderson remarked that while nothing was
said before the Municipal election last gear,
after election men came upon the platform of
City Hall and claimed a partisan victory"
We understood Gen. Anderson to make the
above remark, meaning not that the Democrats
made this claim but Republicans whose candi-
date had been defeated. We are informed that
such was not the tenor of bis words. That he
said before the election last year nothing was
said, but that the night after the election the
friends of Mr.. Putnam held meeting at city
Hall at which the speakers distinctly disclaina-
ed partisan victory Or in words to that effect.
We had no intention to do injustice to Gen.
Anderson but it seems that we misinterpreted
his words in the above instance.

A BIG FIGHr.-If the great prize
light between Allen and Mace comes
of to-day, near New Orleans, as an
nounced, we may expect to have a
lively account Of it by telegraph to-
morrow. Last week, however, it was
announced that Coburn was to be Ar
rested and taken back to st. Louis on
A requisition Of the Governor Of Mis-
souri,, OH some petty charge Of robbery
but it looks q little like a trumpet
up affair, to keep Joe away from the
aght done by some Of Mace's friends.
The arrangements for the fight are
that Carroll will represent Allen and
John G. Heenan will act for Mace.
The seconds Of Allen r Coburn and
Tom Kelly, and those Of Mace are
Heenan and Joe Cusick. Coburn re-
marked to US, just before he left Gold
Hill, on his way East, that he was
after Jem Mace, and before we would
zee him again he would be apt to either
whip Mace or get whipped. In this
Allen-Mace fight Joe is perhaps trying
to find ont Mace's strong and weak
points.

MIR. GREKLEy's ADMIRATION OF
MRs. McFARI.AND.-The proposal of
Netherlands counsel to prove that Mrs.
Mcfarland boosted that Horace
Greeley thought q great deal of her,
Is taken UP and is too severely criti-
eised By the provincial press. There
is nothing whatever discreditable in
the fact that she was proud of Mr..
Gresley's attentions. He is . man for
whom any woman might feel a most
lively regard, and whose devotions the
most fastidious female in the land
might justly make q matter Of pride.
Though not young he Is still handsome,
and though not old, he has years and
experience sufficient to have tanned
the wild impulses Of early manhood,
giving him wisdom without senility,
6uoyancy without the weakness of
youth. Super-added to all these are
high moral and intellectual character
istics, which hedge him about from the
dangers and temptations Of a wicked
world, until he has become, rs it were,
morally bomb-proof. Gifts so rare
and so %resplendent are an ample vim
dication of any woman who might ex-
ult in the knowledge Of their posses
sor's friendship, and should at least
protect her from hasty and unjust as
persions.-N. Y. Commercial Adrertiser.

fort of both, and tend to secure order,
preserve the peace, and maintain the
right Of both carriers and passengers?
Would not such regulation be as rea-
sonable and proper under all circum-
stances, as the one in reference to the
sexesp
The Judge said if defendants had
proyided cars for the carriage Of colo
red people or assigned a place in each
car for them, he would have held such
regulation reasonable and proper. In
the absence of such provision, the
company had not discharged Its duty
as a common carrier Of passengers,
and there was nothing in the charter
giving the company any right to dis
criminate between passengers, who
were orderly and w~ell-behaved and
paid their fare.
The jury, by consent of counsel, as
sessed damages at ten dollars. .
Cars will be put upon all the routes

Coon ADVICE TO You've WoMEN.-A
lady writer In the Chicago Jomnd is
severe upon cruelty to horses. She says:
A thousand shames upon 4 brute who
would lash a terrified horse! Go whip
your wife-you r fully capable Of it.
Tell me = young man would make a
good husband if he will abuse a dumb
beast! I tell you l would rather
marry q Sepoy. Take my advice, We
young maidens contemplating matri-
mony! Never marry a man who is
impudent to his mother, snubs his sis
ter, helps himself to the largest piece
Of cake, or takes the under tiapjack ut
table, or beats his horse causelessly in
sudden temper.
