plants as weather GuIdes

1t is well known that certain plants
are very sensitive to changes in the at
mosphere, and by their behavior, the
opening and closing of their leaves and
flowers, etc +, serve as natural barome-
ters to indicate the coming weather. A
Prussian horticulturist, Mr.. Hanneman,
of Broskau, has published long list of
plants, the indications of which he has
found trustworthy. The Pimpernell, or
poor mans weather glass Anagallis
arvenis), expand their flowers at the ap
proach of wet weather, whilst on the
other hand the different varieties Of
clover contract their leaves before rain.
If fine bright weather is in prospect,
the leaves OF the checkweed (Stellaria
medal unfold and its flowers remain
awake and erect until midday. When
the plant droops and its flowers do not
expand, rain may be expected. The
half opening of the flowers is a sign
that the wet will not last long. The
burnet saxifrage (Pimpinelli saxifraga)
indicates the coming weather in the
same manner. AS to the. small Cape
marigold (Calendula pluvialis), should
1t open at six or seven am, and not
close till four pm, we may reckon on
settled weather; if the flowers continue
sleeping after seven, it betokens rains.
Wood sorrel (0xalis acetocella) and
other species Of 0xalis, indicate rain
by closing their leaves.

American W0men

Albert Rhodes, in his book, "The
French at Home, pictures and contrasts
the French and American women. The
faces Of the latter are more beautiful,
he says, than those Of any other country;
but the body supporting the head re-
garded from an artistic and bygienic
point Of view, is inferior. I'm word,
the American is more fragile. She is
hardly Diana, and the French women
is something more, although not the
Hebe Of Rubens."
Yet our women are further hattered by
the statement that they have more intel
lect than their French sisters, but the
latter have softness where the former
have pertness. There are nervousness,
excitability and cleverness in one, mel.
lowness and equality Of character iu the
other. The forced, brilliant vitality of
women in America, according to the
writer, is subject to fits of reaction, for
nature has its limit In the French wo-
man the mind is more even and cheerful
and in the absence of exhaustive and
irregular demands made upon it the uni.
form health is better.
But the author holds the opinion that
the French can better endure the wear
and tear of the worlds fashionable dis
sipation. When at forty the English wo-
man has become heavy-necked and
frowsy, and the American society belle
pale, dried up and withered, the French
woman glides into an embonpoint with
an uRwrinkled face and good complex
ion. He attributes this to the extremes
of American life, its fastness and its as
ceticism, both of which are unfavorable
to healthy growth; and laments that
with all her knowledge and intellectual
activity the American woman lacks that
which made the Greeks what they we're
and the French what they are-organic
cultivation.
This is true enough, and the remark
might apply with equal force to men.
Yet there are perhaps more Apollos Bel
videre, physically speaking, among our
males, than there are Venuses de Medici
among our females. At least such would
be the conclusion that physiological
critic would be apt to form If he would
spend an hour upon any of our boule-
wards during the continuance of the pre-
sent prediction among the ladies for
cylindrical raiment Of brief transverse
diameter.

SPECIAL NOTICE.
A RevenEefnI Organ.

The stomach is revengeful organ, If we
assign it indigestble food, it not only refuses
to perform its Office. but inAicts upon us un-
speakable tortures, such as those of indiges-
tion, collie. cholera mOrbus, etc. Not content
with giving us pain. it frequently inaugurates
an excessive and wasting diarrhea, called
dysentery, which carries us to our graves.
With view to prevent these consequences,
as soon as the stomach gives notice by pre-
monitory twinges that its cargo is not to its
liking, wineglassful or two Of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters should be swallowed. This
admirable digestive cordial will promptly re-
concile the refractory organ to its contents.
and prevent any Of those annoying and pos
slbly fatal results which the presence of indi-
gestible food in the stomach is liable 10 pro-
duce. The Bitters are also a superb tonic,
restorative and appetizer. eodl13-llS6w

Grand Opera House, with Fisk on one

don't suppose those solitaires were really
larger than an English walnut, be the
same more or less; but sometimes, when
the waves of light played upon them in
certain way, the earrings looked big

nAnecdOte of Daniel s. DicIkensOn

Burleigh, writing to the Boston Jour
nal relates the following:
A party Of gentlemen were together
last week, and we're telling old.time sto.
ries. One referred to Senator Dicken-
son. He was not overlearned, but was
very shrewd. he knew absolutely moth
ing Of the classics, and was greatly an
noyed when one quoted Latin. Van
Buren had swung off into Free Soil, and
the burden of the party was on Dicken-
sons shoulders. A friend of Van Buren,
was eulogizing the ex-President in a
speech. He spoke of Curtius, aud com
pared Van Buren to that noble Roman.
Dickinson went over to seat occupied
by Senator who was at home in all that
relates to the Romans. "Who is this
