natural order LiliaeeG, having a funnel

has rounded dubious roots; cylindrical, up
right, unbranched stem, four or fiveieet high /;
both root-leaves and stem leaves sword
shaped and very acute; flowers beautiful and
somewhat aggregated, pure white, resembling
wax, the tube a little curved. The plant is
in high esteem for the beauty and fragrance
al its flowers, and one at least should be found
in every collection of plants. The oder from
this flower is most powerful, so much so as in
some cases, to cause headache The fading
flowers emit, in certain states of the atmos-
phere, an eleetic light and sparks. The
flowers yield an essential oil which is used
by perfumers. We saw yetesrday tuberose

Congress Ycsterday-GeneraI Appropriation
Both houses yesterday developed a remark
able degree of industry in the right direction.
The House Of Representatives actually dis
posed Of two appropriation bills-the one for
Notifications and works of defence, and the
other for the Improvement of rivers and har-
bors-without any collision between members
or any operation of mud machines" On
the contrary, members Of both parties and
from all quarters Of the country combined
together and stood by each other in support Of
those two bills, which contained appropria-
tions in which all were more or less concerned.
In fact it might be said, without putting too
fine point on it, that these bills were log
rolled through the House. Together they call
for about six millions of dollars.
The Senate devoted its session, day and
night to the Indian Appropriation bill, with
some incidental matters in the morning hour.
