him into an clubhouse, choked him into insen-
sibility, and held him while Mary Carter went
THROUGH him. The punishment of such an of
fence oy law is death, The commonwealth s

A Ne'o Enterprise The State is already
beginning to feel that there ''is life in the old
land yet" One of the greatest wants our
agrlculturalists and floris.s have known, is
that OF regular seed grower. Nothing of the
KING mas been successful in the State, but now
we have prospect that argues certainty of
success, from the fact that young, able, COM
petent and energetic business man is at its
head. Mr.. Leckenby, of the firm OF Leckenby
d Laird, whose garden of flowers at the head
OF Grace street, is just at this time the object
OF en afternoon walk, has purchased a small
farm near the city, which, in short time, he
intends shall bloom and blossom like the rose.
He intends to devote all the ground to the rais-
ing of the most, choice and beautiful plant,
flowers, &c, and to save and put up for sale
fresh seeds every year. With such enterprise
and energy, he will surely succeed and rival
the popular j. Wick, of Rochester, N. T.,
whose assistant he at one time was. Who will

The S,oiss Bel Ringers. Berger
family of Swiss Bell Ringers are announced for
weeks engagement at the theatre, COM
mencing Monday, February 9th. BY this our
citizens are assured of a week of most excel.
lent enjoyment in a musical way which they
will not fail to appreciate. This troupe Is
justly considered the most efficient now before
the public. Every individual member of the
bell lringing company has been trained to the
use of the bells from his or her infancy. They
have played all over the country, and every
where with acceptance.
The Baltimore Gazette says of one of their
performances recentlv in that city:
"For genuine unalloyed enjoyment and re-
creation, there hes not been in Baltimore for a
decade past, such an entertainment as that now
offered at the Concordia Opera House. The
Berger Family, with their important auxilia-
ries, get up what may be trJthfuly and en-
phatically termed ''gala night every even
ing. Miss Maud Stanley, who assists the
Bergers, is young lady Of most plersin ad
dr2ss, and gifted with a clear, beautiful
soprano voice; Sol Smith Russell, as humor-
st and facial contortionist, stands coufessedly
at the head of his profession; Mr. Will. X.
Lavake, is a balladist without rival, and J.
Henry Gardner, ~ cornet soloi-t, is equal to
any,.
"The Misses Berger perform on half dozen
different instrument, and whether using string
or bass, are alike du fat. In the West and
South they have been received by overwhem.
ing audiences, and in New Orleans they sue.
ceeded in crowding to excess for four consecu-
tive weeks the largest hall in that city. With
out exception, press and people speak of them
in terms of the highest pr aise, and we bespeak
from Baltimore anus yment lovers, that liberal
encouragement they slways award genius and
merit"

We have received q copy Of the speech OF

which reads very much as though the phil
osopher of the Tribune was bidding for the
democratic nomination in 1872. Ii is GER.
tain he has washed his hands Of ell his old
radical preschings, for in the speech he is
particularly severe on radical management
in the south. He was also particularly severe
on carpet bsggers, and speaks in no very com
Elementary terms of the man he helped to

has been the reorgAnized head since its for

never have committed himself, as he has
done, to q position OF abstinence and ex'
pec,stion had be not felt that old things
were indeed passing away and that all things
are about to become new. Briefly summed
up, his speech was simply declaration that
il was high time for the party with which
he has so long acted to go into liquidation.
OF the President with whom the repub.

Mr.. Greeley has just returned from the
south. There, If anywhere, the repubKcAa
party had fair field in which to work out
its salvation. The south has been given
over into its hands. 1t has been free to do
with the interests and with the people of the
