Rosebud Parties.

The New York correspondent of tbe Elmira Advertiser gives the folIowino description of New York party where young girls make their first appearance in society:
 But for deepest dissipation, 90 to a rosebud party, to which all the ladies invited are seeing their first season in society-that is, if you can get a card for 1t. No favor dispensed by kind and charming hostess is so coveted as an invitation to her rosebud party. for the compliment bears on the face of it that she considers you one of the eligibles of her aoquaintances. Going, you find the drawlng-rooms nobody says parlors any more, except an old fashioned fellow like myself, we take so closely after the glish-hung with fern, smilax and Spirea, feathering from mantel and cornlce, baskets of half blown roses on every stand, and scores of debutartes in pink and cream color floating about, all the mischief they learned at Mrs. Meares' or Madame Chegarays', at $500 quarter, fresh in their pretty heads. These pretty bacchanals, fresh from up town boarding schools, waltz the widest, hlrt the deepest, and sip champagne the most defiantly of any bellies afloat, un- less we except few of our pretty mar ried women-and do this with more freedom than they will ever find at com mand aga1n.

The Centennial Rifle Team.

Capt. Mcdonald, of the Scotch rife team, writes to the Vol,tnteer Service
 Gazette that six members of last years Scotch Elcho Shield team-an who are able to go to America to participate in the Centennial matches-intend to shoot for places in this team, and at least nine other first class shots are ready to com pete. No shot, resident of Scotland, who can go, has held back. The deputa- tion of the Irish rife association, which interviewed Major Leach in regard to the organization of an Irish team by that gentleman, included nearly all of the 1875 international team. Capt. Mildmay, secretary of the national rifle associa- tion, thinks the action of the Irish team definitely settled in the negative the question of the national association's representation, though Sir Henry Hal ford has not yet received reply from Col. Gldersleeve to his communication asking that no team should be accredited unless under the auspices of the national rifle association.

Where to Buy.

A Vermont lady sends a protest against an article which appeared in the columns of city paper advising
 people to go to the city to purchase their goods. She thinks country merchants should be encouraged; that their judg- ment and taste in the selection of goods IS better than the average housewife's: that the time and trouble she takes in going to the city to do her own shopping gives poor returns; that she might bet. ter give the merchant list of what she wishes, and get him to purchase for her, than go herself; that the practice of de- pending upon neighboring cities for shopping facilities tends to make towns suburban, and keeps them from retain ing their distinctive character as coun- try villages; that the ladies of her town who make their purchases in large cities do no better, so far as she can learn, than those who buy of the country mer chant. She concludes thus: "f agree perfectly with what you say about buy ing by the quantity, but we can do that without going to cities; and just think of the loss of trade to country dealers and the personal discomfort of husbands and children if women, on the strength ot your advice, flee to the city stores to spend their money this spring"

Poisonous Trees.

The leaves of the gumbo trees, which grow in the West Indies, when eaten bv any animal, will cause all its hair to drop out, and l have seen horses and COWS both without hair in mane or tail from eating its leaves. The manchenillo tree is quite common on some of these islands, and is very poisonous. The wind blowing through it directly upon a person sensitive to poison will take effect Tn few moments. The smoke from it's burning wood has the same effect. I saw horse which had taken shelter un- der one of these trees during a shower, whose hair was taken off wherever the drops of rain from it's boughs had touch ed him, and years afterward had this mottled appearance. A man who slept under one of them in midday was awak ened nearly unconscious, as if under the effects of a powerful narcotic. I have known several cases of severe poison and two deaths from eating crabs poisoned with this tree.

The Black Hills Fraud.

A letter printed in the New York Times very clearly exposes the fraudu. lent character of the reports of gold
 finds in the Black Hills. There is abundant reason to believe that several communities on the extreme North western frontier have been engaged in the business of willfuly deceiving i'm migrants. The correspondent, writing from Cheyenne, Wyoming Territory. says that the whole Black Hills gold business is fraud, and he adds that Cheyenne, Omaha, Sioux City, Yankton. and one or two other frontier towns have proated by the delusion. That is to say, parties bound for the mythical gold mines stop few days in these towns and spend some money for board, lodg- ing, and 'outfit," in which latter com prehensive term is included all that i'm migrants and miners need, from an OK team and wagon to pan for gold pros- pecting. For the sake of securing this trade, newspapers print falsehoods about the mines and dilate on the superior facilities which their localities afford to
 immigrants and travellers.
