A young lady of this city received
large, beautiful and aromatic birth
day present the other day. It was
favored with natures own nectar,
and might appropriately be called
"the ladies' delight" It was good to
eat, but intended by benefcent
Providence for sWeetening the breath.
To eat it was to give the breath of
the eater agentle, all pervading, nasal
awaking scent which would be readily
taken up by any olfactory within
seventy-siX feet. Especially is it cal
culated to sweeten the already per-
fumed lung filling of a young and
blooming maiden, so as to not only
delight her rivals, but will also visi-
bly, affect any nice, delicate young
man who may be pridlng himself on
being her escort on the day she eats
her present. It was large, healthy,
juicy Ell Paso onion, Weighing 215
pounds and measuring 10 by 1615
inches. She has not eaten it yet, but
will likely do SO the first time she is
invited out to a swell gathering.
