Our "Mrs." received a handsome box
the other day from James Wick, the celebrated
gardener of Rochester, N. Y. II contained a
IF -
bracket The plants were so well put up that
their long journey did not affect them in the
least. Wick should have been made the keeper
of the garden of Eden. He will put himself
out to please the ladies as willingly as Adam
did and he would have taken better care Of
The Garden.

MIR. Henry Fox, for long time a promi-
nent citizen of Lancaster, will on March 26th
TUESDAY sell off all such personal effects as
he cannot carry with him to Kansas The
property includes everything usually kept
about a farm, except that he intends to take
his work horses and wagons with him and
therefore will not sell them. If everybody
would 90 down there and devote themselves to
persuading Mr.. Fox to stay in good old Grant
we should be pleased.
1t is quite usual to see the tallest man
marry the shortest girl in his neighborhood
or the tallest girl joined with the shortest
man. Sometimes also the protest girl marries
the ugest man. The converse of this rule
is not so general. The selection are sup>
posed to be made by the &c ntleman and Il he
is very ugly he will naturally feel the need Of
complement. Such pairing is proper. If the
declaration that all men are born equal is not
true perhaps by careful selections it can be
made true. The taest with the shortest, the
strong with the weak, the sour with the
sweet, boldness with reserve, rich with poor
homeness with beauty--the rule followed
may make all things even,
On Sunday morning last, st. Patrick
Day, an efligy of st. Patrick was found sus-
pended from pole which protruded from the
roof of one Of the highest buildings in Laucas-
ter The eiligy was clothed in very rough and
patched garments, with the pantaloons tied
with bag strings around his old shoes. The
right arm was extended, brandishipg a wand
or shillalah. The left hand carried a whisky
flask On his breast was a green badge-he
was wearing of the green" Around his neck
was a string Of very large beads they were
said 20 be SIR. Utt's large early potatoes. We
suppose those who placed the image there
meant only innocent amusement, not insult.
Many Catholics condemn the public exhibitions
made under tho pretense of honoring st. Pat
rick The Rev. Jas. z. Ryan, Paulist father
who preached on the subject in New York last
Sunday, called them dynamite patriots" and
the Rev. Sylvester Malone in his sermon used
this language; "What insanity is it that brings
st. Patrick from his niche in Gods temple to
the street to be made the subject of laughter
and derision!" st. Patrick was really good
man but the ignorant have credited him with
such ridiculous performancesthath he will be the
more AOnored by giving him quiet in the niche
assigned him by father Malone.
The Chicago Patent man made desper
ate attempt to have something out ahead of
the HERALp the other day. 1t somehow got
through his yellow ringlets that there was
meeting of the Board of Supervisors after last
weeks HERALD was out. So he proceeded to
put their Proceedings in bis home corner, But
as he runs "patcnt" concern he thought it
would do just as well to rush business by re-
printing part of the proceedings of last Noyem
