A New Idea in Flowers.

New York correspondent, writing under date
of May 18th, says: "The favorite flowers this week
are the fruit blossoms. The double Towering
cherry (white) makes charming corsage bouquet.
Apple and peach blossoms are seen everywhere in
the windows of fashionable florists and on street
corners. Dogwood is extensively used for decors-
tive purposes. 1t grows in many suburban gar
dens, and places like Staten Island are fairly
abloom with this lovely tree flower. Now that
coats are worn with pockets in front a bunch of
flowers is often fastened into the pocket. But
this is only a within, and when the fair wearers
are con parade" the flowers are better worn along
the line of buttons"

rs Brother Jonathan has always had the rep
utation of being able to drive pretty shrewd
bargain. He has more ways of making money
than one. When he buys 412 grains of silver for
IS cents, makes it up into silver dollar and COM
pels his citizens take it for 100 cents he is
not losing any money. And when he contracts
for hundreds of millions of postal cards at the
rate of fty-four cents per thousand and then sells
them for ready cash at $40 per thousand, we are
obliged to believe he has as sharp an eye to a
bargain as any person in the country.

Diseased Cattle Law.-The Westminster
Advocate says: "The new law in relation to dis
eased cattle goes into operation at once, but the
people know little or nothing about it. Gov
McLane, like his illustrious predecessor, is OPP
posed to spreading such knowledge before the
people at the expense of the State, and they must
find ont VIII the law is as estthey can. But, it
is-saf., tF--f 49, s-tsSs with mas and penalties,
and the poJf'e must obey it, whether they under
stand its stringent provisions or not. tits alleged
that it authorizes the State Veterinary Surgeon
or his assistants to enter any premises where he
may think diseased cattle are harbored, and order
them to be placed in quarantine. He may order
the destruction of the animals if he thinks neces-
sary, and appraisers, to be appointed by him,
will then value the slaughtered animals, so that
the State can reimburse the owner. The law is
very stringent. In case its provisions are not
complied with, the offender shall be deemed guilty
of a misdemeanor. ANY one offering cattle for
sale that is diseased, permits the animal
to cross highway, knowing it to be diseased
without the consent of the State Veterinary Sur
geon, is liable to fine of not less than $50 and
not moro than 800 for each animal. Farmers
and cattle dealers had better acquaint themselves
with the provisions of this statute for it would be
unpleasant to fall into the hands of this important
public functonary, who has been clothed with
plenary power to execute the law with summary
process"

Philopolis, 9Th District.-The eighth ami
versary of the Philomatharia Literary Society was
celebrated at Milton Academy on the 18th inst.
The spacious school room, in which the exercises
took place. was filled to its utmost capacity, which
showed very plainly, indeed, that past efforts had
not been deprecated in the least degree, by the
non members who reside at Philopolis. The ex-
ercises were well rendered, hence, much credit is
due those who participated. No doubt it is the
wish of all that the association may continue to
prosper in the future it surely has done in the
past, and ever kept in view "That knowledge is
a bright and powerful light, always shining for
those who desire il"
The surrounding country has certainly become
very much beautifed since the warm weather and
the late showers have come. So much so, that
the farmers are greatly encouraged to put forth
another extra link in the way of planting their
crops, and also making their homes have cheer
full appearance, by withdrawing their barns and
other adjacent buildings.

graves of the departed teachers and scholars, on

Good Roads.-A writer says: "Would it
not be good thing if the farmers of the county
would make it rule to devote at least one day
in the year, with their teams, to fixing up the
roads in a substantial manner in their respective
localities? Whilst large sums of the taxpayers
money are appropriated every year to our county
roads, we find that every year the came old mud
holes come in for their share of work and there
is where the money goes"
