from another trip to Kentucky, where
he has bought some more blooded
mares and one high stepping yearling
colt, gelding, out CT which he ex>
poets to make speed down in the
twenties at two years old. This colt,
he says, is sired by Red Flame, and
two year old brother, owned by
Taylor Brothers, of Louisville, has
trOtted the mile in 2.27, and for which
they have refused fabulous offers. Mr..
Collins has also secured the magnif.
cent thoroughbred trotting stallion,
George Wilks, Jr., for the service of
his own mares, and has consented. we
are told, to let him to limited num>
ber of frst-class mares besides bis
own. He will have circulars printed
in due time giving full particulars.
George Wilks, Jr., is one of the high
est,bred horses ever raised in Ken>
lucky and will be handled for Mr..
Collins by Porter Brown, the famous

The mercury dropped below zero

vice instrument indicated one and d
half below.
1t has been suggested to US by

We want good people to come and

We learn that Messrs Benton and
Lowry propose to start a new paper in
Trenton about February first, entitled
the Gibson County Herald. Messrs.

papers. That town must be a regular
bonanza place for printers.

The Exchange is under obligations
to Mr. Blanks for most excellent

there was not much left but the table
either.

THE LAWN IN TE4R BEAR or TnE
CITY HALL FILLED WITH
BEAUTIFUL FLOWER0.
MR.. HAYDEN'S W ORK.

M. r. Hayden has just completed
arranging the lawn In the rear OF the
City Hall, and the work reflscts great
credit ON his skill as . florist. Upon
the face Of the centre elevation the
words "Water Dept" have been cut in
the sod md filled with red alternan-
thtas. On each side of the path that
divides the lawn, circular beds of the
same flowers have been made, and
surrounded with varlously shaped beds
Of echevarias, dwarf geraniums, feather
fews. .colias and acaranthus plants, form
ing beautiful and attractive beds, while
the path have been filled with running
plants and palms In the centre.
Mr.. Hayden is very busy ut present,
and is doing more business this season
than ever before, being almost over
come with orders. In . single after
noon this week he measured and plant
ed beds In twenty one gardens 10 this
city, which he aud his men have since
furnished with plants; in addition to
this, he Is selling thousands of roses
and other plants to persons who SGT
them out themselves.
At the commencement Of the season
he had $4,000 roses at 81 per dozen, and
fully as many more email bedding
plants, but II the rush which he has
had for the past two or three weeks
continues, his supply, large as it was,
will be exhausted. Sometime ago he
sent large Dum bers of roses to parties
down the State who had ordered from
him, and he has since received postals
and letters from them stating that they
were received in good order, and that
they were surprised to find that he had
sent them such excellent plants ct such
q small cost.
His store at No. 7O2 Mar ket street il
daily visited by hundreds of customers,
while 1t Is no uncommon thing for fif.
teen or twenty carriages to be standing
at his green. houses on the Newport pike
at one time, while those who came in
them are inside making their selections.
This immense trade has been built up
by a careful attention to his business.
and by giving more and better plants
for the money than was ever thought
possible by his competitors.

The shad season is rapidly drawing

not already secured supply for winter
should do so at once. Powell in the
Third street market will have o large
number to morrow, and although the
