POIsONOUS PLANTS AND FLOWERS. -
There are many plants whose leaves,
flowers and seeds contain virulent
poisons, which every one should know,
so as to avoid them and keep children
from them.
The buttercup possesses q poisonous
property which disappears when the
flowers are dried in hay; no COW will
feed upon them while i'll blossom. SO
caustic are the petals, that they viii
sometimes intlame the skin Of tender
fingers. Every child should be eau
toned against eating them; indeed,
it is desirable to caution children about
tasting the petals Of ally flower, or
putting leaves. INTO their mouths, ex-
cept those known to be harmless.
The oleander contains deadly
poison in it's leaves and flowers, and
is said TO be a dangerous plant for the
parlor or dining room. The flower
and berries of the wild briony are
powerful purgative; and the red
berries, which attract children, have
proved fatal. The seeds Of the la
burnum and catalpa trees should be
kept from children and there is a
poisonous property in their bark. The
seeds Of the yellow and rough pOdded
vetches will produce nausea and Sc
we're headache.
Fools parsley has tubcrous roots
which have been mistaken for turnips,
and produced Il fatal effect in an hour
after they were eaten.
Meadow hemlociI is said to be the
hemIock which Socrates drank; it
kills by its intense action upon the
nerves, producing complete insensi-
bility, and palsy Of the arms and legs,
and is a most dangerous drug, except
in skillfai hands. In August it is
found in every field, by seashore and
near mountain tops, in full bloom, and
ladies and children gather its large
clusters of tiny white flowers in guam
titles, without the least idea of its
uoisOnous qualities. The water hem
lock, or COW bane, resembles parsnip,
and has been eaten for them with
deadly effects.
The water drop-wort resembles Gel
cry, when not in flower, and its roots
are also similar to those Of the pars-
NIP, but they contain a yirulent poi
son, producing commissions, which end
in death in short time. The fine
Ieaved water drop-wort and the com
mon drop-wort are also dangerous
weeds.
The bulbs of the datTodI were once
mistaken for lceks and boiled in soup,
with very disastrous effects, making
the whole household intensely nause-
ateG, and the children did not recover
from the effects for several days.

FROM WASHINGTON.

Government counsel in the star
route cases, referring to Senator Kel-
lOgg's structures upon them, are re-
ported as saving that they have let
tiers written by him TO Price within the
last year, which will prove curious
reading on the trial, and that the let
tiers do not indicate ignorance as to
the transactions with respect to which
the presentments have been found.
They also say that the report that in
dictments will not be framed as called
for is absurd. The Brady party is
known to be much concerned at the
new disclosures, as Price is likely to
be much more dangerous States evil
dence for them, THAI Rerdell IS.
The case of Strong, the old District
contra tor, which Gen. Butler has SO
long had in court, was set for hearing
in the District Supreme Court recent
", for the next term. This will prob
ably compel Gen. Butler to make an
other visit to Washington. The Strong
case is for some 100000. Judge
Wylie, now presiding in star route
cases, once almost kicked the case out
of his court, and sharply criticised
Gen. Buffers conduct.
Secretary Foiger continues to i'm
prove daily. He is much better than
he has been for several days, and it is
hoped by those about him, that within
4 week he will be so far recovered as
to take the trip to the Bermudas.
Ex-senator Kellogg said to a re-
porter of the Associated Press, that in
a few days he expected to be able to
make statement which would be a
complete denial of the allegations con-
corning him set forth in Prices aliida-
Wit lie would show from the records
in the Post Office Department that he
had never indorsed an application for
expedition of service on any mail
route. except for one steamboat route
on Red River in 1876 or 1877. He
would also show what was the ar
rangement made by the prosecution
with Price, who, he said, had been
promised immunity for his services in
this matter. Mr.. Kellogg said,
furthermore, that the present proceed
ing against him was not begun Will
the consent of the Attorney General
Messrs. Nerrick and Kerr had he said,
taken advantage of the absence of Mr.
Brewster from the city TO 60 before
the Grand Jury, and counsel for the
prosecution had admitted that this
step was rendered necessary by the
testimony of Gen. Brady. lie added
that if an indictment were found
against him he should ask to have the
case tried immediately after the con-
clusion of The pending cases.

The eyes of the politicians are just
now turned to the State of Rhode
Island, where Ex-Governor and ex-
Senator Sprague has doomed into
prominence as tie Fusion candidate for
Governor against the Republican tick
ct. The Sprague movement was in
augurated with considerable of boom,
but the latest indications point to a
collapse before election day. The can
didate for Lieutenant Governor with
Sprague has declined to run, and the
regular Republican candidate has been
taken up. The probabilities are,
therefore, that Mr.. Sprague will be de-
feated, as he should be, and that Mr..
Bourn will be chosen by a decisive

A curious story is published, to the
effect that Samuel j. Tilden, finding
his health greatly improved, intends to
re-enter the political arena and cap
ture the Democratic nomination for
the Presidency next year. The story
is, however, accompanied by the state
ment that he is to be assisted in the
attempt to secure a . vindication' by
Roscoe Conkling. This will cause the
entire narrative to be taken with a
very large grain of salt, since it is not
easy to imagine Roscoe doing as much
as this for political foe, even though
the latter be, as in this case it is said
he is, an intimate personal friend.

tertains some hopes of New York.
