We are under obligations ia
Mr.. Maynard Possd fer the pres
ent Of a real Magnolia lower, the
most highly psi1ed Of all the
flowers in Flora's garden
The flower was obtained by
Mr.. Pond when in Portsmouth
dast week from a tree planted
many years ago on the grounds
of the Seminary, now lse prop
erty of his sister, Mrs. Baird.
The Magnolia seldom flourishes
north OF the Ohio. 1t is peculi-
arly Southern tree, and in local
tiles adapted to its growth at
tains to the height of one hun-
dred feet, and when in bleom Is
said to be the most gorgeous tree
on earth. The flower is pure
white, Of a waxy complexion and
as large when fully open as a
saucer. Its fragrance is delicious
assd enduring. 1t preserved its
forsn and retained its fragrance
for about forty eight hours, fill
ing the room with the most de-
lightful perfume
The Magnolia is a flower to
provoke poetry, and the author
of "Proviace Rose" can establish
herself ia the good graces of the
by a verse of mistral
rapture on this posey-
If permitted to indulge a po-
etc thought, We might intimate
as our belief that the Magnolia is
the veritable descendent of that
Tree into which Daphne changed
herself by the aid of q ''Mistral
breeze" !" in order to escape from
the too ardent advances of Apol
10, and that the flower W. have
so much admired is adj of the
pretty that's left of her.

Miss Geodrich's Poetry.

ED. SENTINKL-I noticed your
comments in last weeks issue on
the "Mistral Poetry" of Miss
Goodrich, and being an old time
friend and admirer of the fair
poetess, l cannot refrain from a
reply.
Your structures on the poetry
would place it about on a par
with that of Judge Wright, or
some other uninspired poet, and
l cannot permit such an impress
sion t.. pass unnoticed. Whether
there is such a word as 'mistral"
is not for You or me to inquire,
nor are we to consult Webster or
Worcester, as we all know poetl.
license is unlimited. And then
what shall we do for new words
when unable to find old ones
with which to "air our vocabu-
larry :" and who are more compe-
tent than the poets to give us
new ideas as we'll as wordsg We
must get out of the old ruts and
learn something new, if it be
nothing more nor less than mis-
tral.n
We are promised a forthcom-
ing volume Of poems by the same
lady. and vet shall it be condemn
ed in advance by reason of the
use of one unknown word, or
some fancisd fault Of rythm in
the "mistral poesy 2" venture
to say the Young lady will be
amply qualified TO produce the
verses on bucollc scenes, |
as she has had many an opportu-
nifty to study the beautiful in ma
ture in company with the writer,
and she never failed to take ad
vantage of the opportunity offer
ed, and shall claim the credit of |
all inspiration in that direction. |
But l may be anticipating and !
predicting too much. 1t is best
to await the coming Of the book,
and in the meantime. Mr.. Editor. |

The family of Scion Root were consider
ably surprised, one morning last week, to
find their kitchen chimney spread promis-
cuously on the floor. 1t had caught fire
after the family retired burned out, and
burned away its supports, letting it fall, and
the fire had gone out, all without disturbing
the sleeping inmates of the house.
