THANKSGIVING.

This Is the day when the governor invites as all to have dinner at our own expense, and incidentally suggests that we ought to be thankful. Let no one suppose that we intend any reflections upon Thanksgiving. We be- lieve it te be the one American festival we have reason to be proud of. We believe in having dinner at our own expense, or, if not, at somebody else's. We believe heartily in the joyous reunion of friends, in having g general good time and in miugling herewith a reasonable amount of devotion. Yet we know that some persons, mostly foreigners inclined to prejudiced views of this great re. public and her institutions, have said somG disparaging things, of very superficial char. acter of course, about Thanksgiving They have intimated that Thanksgiving was pious fraud. We do not suppose that they meant that the dinner was fraud. The turkey, the chicken pie, the pumpkin pie, the cider that has just begun to work, and the beans baked with pork are not any striking exam pies of fraud. The most bigoted foreigners recognize these articles as genuine and whenever they come in contact with them pay them that respectful homage which is their
 
 g religious festival at all. They intimate that the qualification of the appetite Is not the usual conoomitant of pious exercises, and 1t must be confessed that the filling of the inner man is sometimes apt to crowd the de- votional principle little. Yet we cannot conceive of Q more appropriate occasion for gratitude than when one is contented, well lad ora Sy1k hA yaiIok aR f,Sa 1a If, like some of our distinguished contemps- raries, we were fortunate enough to possess influence in London and Berlin we should try to convince our foreign critics of their error. We should say that starvation and re- igion have never been intimately connected in America We should think, If any fellow in this country found it hard to discover any genuine reasons to give thanks, is would be the fellow who could not have a ThanksQiv- mated in feast which followed 6 famine Although it is more than probable that the participants in this original feast did not waste much time before proceeding to busi- ness, it is not at all likely that they felt any less gratitude for their deliverance from fam inc because they were having 8 square meal. Thanksgiving is really the festival of family reunion. This reunion in New England has always been felt to bs in itself religious oc cssion. The joyous meeting in health and prosperity could not fail to awaken the de- votional feelings of people whose religious convictions are the strongest part of their character. New England is profoundly re- Igious, but it has never taken kindly to lasts. Devotion finds It's natural place in the occa sions of greatest rejoicing. It is perhaps hard for our foreign critics to understand how Yankees can be devout at good dinner but here, fortunately, 1t requires no explana ton.

spring from these seeds, which occasionally reproduce the parent plants, but are far more likely to develop into an infinite number of varieties, good, bad and indifferent. These young plants have to be carefully tended for three years before it is known what they will be. Then, if the grower gets two or three new varieties that are really fine, he Is con- tent, and if he obtains half dozen he con- siders himself in great luck for getting SO many out of 10000 seedlings, to which he has given three years of patient care and skiIlful cultivation. The remaining 9,994 are only brush, fit merely to burn. Some times, when they are all in bloom, he sees that he might just as well burn the whole 10, 900, but that is exceptionally bad luck. He ought to get one out of the lot, anyway. Suppose that he does-the work has just be- gun. In order to get back his investment in the experiment. and make anything by 1t, he must have 5000 or 10000 plants ready to throw upon the market at once. Then he springs his new rose as a surprise upon the trade, and it commands good prices, like the Andre Schwartz, for instance, good plants of Swhio at present bring $5 each. All these plants must be produced from his one solitary little seeding. It has to be kept in constant heat in the greenhouse. it's rapidly making new wood being shipped of and propagated as fast as possible, and the plants so produced being used to start others, and so on for two years before the olscoVerer or the new rose can venture to say to the public, How do you like my new beauty?'
 But, even then, do not suppose that the subsequent cultivation of that rose is all plain sailing. Many roses that have been great successes in England and France have been entire failures over here, the great change in climatic conditions preventing their development. Very often they will not
 bloom at all here, or, if brought to flower, the result is so bad that it does not pay to cultivate them. But this cannot be deter mined until after two years of trial. No prudent gardener would discard 8 plant be- cause it failed the first year. It must get &C., climated. Then the development of the sec- ond year may be just enough to encourage him to give it a third years trial and after all, 1t may turn out to be useless. Out of & hundred new varieties imported there will ba hardly more than half 8 dozen worth cuItiva- tion in this country, or at least in the eastern and middle States. But if you want to know more about that subject, you had bet- ter consult Gabriel Marc, of Woodside who imports thousands of roses every year, and what he and his son Charles do not know about rose growing, nobody in this country knows. He will not only give you 8 chapter of disappointments, if you want it, but one of triumphs, and probably will tell you of some coming roses, so entirely new that even forists have not yet been allowed to see them"

4 hard question Is again raised by the &C., ton of New York medical men. who are in- dignantly protesting against ths continual raiding of disreputable houses. The cause of the protest is that the disreputabIs per- sons are crowding into tenement houses. One case cited is that of 8 tenement house where live sboat fifty decent and honest fam flies, while intermingled among these virtuous poor are at least ten absolute women whose language and actions are far from being Q healthy and good example for the girls and boys of these families. It is claimed that as fast as the public houses are broken up these fallen creatures who dsspise virtue imme- diately take rooms in tenement houses and thus carry contamination where only the best of missionary work should be allowed.
