VIcK's FLORAL GUIDE.-This annual
visitor IS always welcome. Printed on
the best Of paper, Astounding in hand
some illustrations, it certainly may claim
to rank as sample of the highest typo
graphical art. Its colored plates, three
in number. are perfect gems, and we are
at loss to discover how this enterpris-
ing firm can afford to lavish so much ex-
pense in identifying a publication for
which they only ask ten cents, whilst
TO each Of their last seasons customers
they actually give it as = Christmas pres
ent. As its name indicates, it IS Guide
to the proper treatment and culture of all
kinds Of flowers and vegetables, each de-
scription being accompanied by an Illus
trztion Of the particular plant or vege-
table referred to. We should advise all
who are interested in gardening, whether
for the pleasure obtained from raising
flowers, or for the more practical occupa-
ton of raising vegetables, to send to JAS
Wick, Rochester, New York, for a copy
of this most instructive work The pub

E and ". Fl. Pogg left on prospecting
E trip for the lower portion of the count,

individuals were very reticent as to wha
8 they were going after, we learn that the

+ large quantaties. The blocks of mic
8 that have from time to time been sent
Y Phoebe from that vicinity are very fin
specimens, and as the railroad will b
running through that section within

n come valuable, though worthless at pre-
lie ent.
