There is a rare flower, found only in the
East, that has excited great deal Of interest
on account Of its mystery. Botanists have
found it difficult to classify it, because II has
properties belonging to different classes. II
was brought to this country by DIR. Deck, who
procured it from an Arab, to whom he had
rendered medical aid in upper Egypt As
compensation, the Arab handed him stem
which held what seemed to be two bulbs OIL
dried seeds The Arab said he had taken il
from an Egyptian mummy, and that the
flowers were very highly esteemed.
The peculiarly of the plant is that though
apparently decayed and worthless, after being
immersed in glass of water for moment
it expands slowly, but steadily, and a
beautiful star-like flower appears TO view,
something between a passion-hower and o
sunhover, but more beautiful than either
A fter the flower has remained open for more
than an hour its petals close just gradually as
they expanded, and then nothing is visible but
the dried-up bulb.
DIR. Deck says he saw the same flower 20
through this process at least a thousand
times, and each time with the same result.
He presented one of his flowers to Baron Won
Humboldt, who considered it one of the
greatest marvels in the vegetable kingdom.
Professor Torrey owned q specimen, and
Bishop Wainwright obtained two during his
tour in Egypt.

verdict OF exonoration. But aside from all
this there was no ground apparent upon
which to base a charge that direct bribery
was practiced. 1t was generally known that
the penitentiary lessees were excepting open
house" for all members of the Legislature,
but no one has been found to testify that they
had open purses also. The conduct Of the
lessees and the honorable members, however,
was not marked with that regard for the SEM
blance Of honesty which is a characteristic of
lobbyists and experienced politicians in States
where the disposal of political patronage is
studied as a science, and though not dis
honorable thought may have entered their
minds, the suspicion will remain that all
things at the State capital we're not what they
should be.

WAVE Of pulchritudinal morality is passing
over the country. Thus far its force has been
spent mainly in the causes of prohibition, oi
gambling and of traffic in liquor, of Sabbath
observance and Of a preservation Of the
purity of the ballot-box; but it may 60 further,
and circumstances indicate that it will. 1t
arose year or so ago and first appeared in all
its might in the State of New York, where
prosecutions for violations Of the Sunday law
became numerous. Then it spread to Mis-
souri, and Kansas in each of which States
Sunday laws were for while en-
forced and questions pertaining to
morality were excitedly discussed. In
Kansas a prohibitory liquor law was
more strictly enforced than ever before and
Sunday laws were brought to light which had
long ago been generally forgotten. In Mis-
souri, the public energy was mostly directed to
gambling, and the practice was finally made
a penitentiary oifense. Subsequently the
Legislature of Tennessee enacted similar
law and drafts for one have been prepared in
Kentucky, Mississippi, Georgia and several
Northern States. In Louisiana and Virginia
attempts were made to punish persons for
violations of election laws and in Virginia
they were successful. Such proceedings the
ward bummors of Virginia and Louisiana
had not thought possible. Ohio and other
States are now endeavoring to in
stitute reforms and even Texas has
given some attention to the subjects en-
crossing public attention elsewhere. The
wave, after travelling over many States, re-
turned to New York, where meanwhile its
effects had become less noticeable than for
merly, and there, with renewed strength,
again took possession of the public mind.
Its presence was made manifest by the pas
sage of a law imposing severe penalties on
railroad companies for giving free passes to
State officials. The example it set was fol-
lowed by Pennsylvania and other States are
thinking of doing likewise. But it is questiona-
BILE if the reform movement has been productive
OF more than the semblance of reform, il we
have not assumed the eternal beauty of virtue
alone. Though we have passed laws for the
observance of Sunday, prohibiting the sale of
liquor and for other good purposes the columns
of the newspapers are as full as before of re-
ports of crime and no diminution of vicious
practices is percepdble. Nevertheless the
movement will prove benefc'al-by removing
temptation il nothing more-and, though men
will continue to get drunk in States where the
sale of liquor is forbidden and to sell goods
surreptitiously in states where Sundsy laws
are in force, their number will steadily de-
crease as long as energy is directed properly
to enforcement of the laws
