A Battle OF Flowers.

A Paris letter says that among the fea-
lures of the carnival at Nice this year
was the battle of flowers. Precisely at
2 o'clock the gun at the chateau gave
the signal for beginning the hostilities
and by 3 o'clock the battle had really be-
gun. Vehicles richly decorated with
flowers, fruits, ribbons, straw and other
decorative material paraded the Corso and
bouquets fell thick as hail upon the
crowds, which extended in thick mass
from one end of the course to the other.
The people on foot responded with vigor
to the attacks of the riders, many of them
having provided themselves with large
baskets full of small bouquets, in the
manufacture of which whole army of
florists had been engaged during the pre-
ceding day and night. There was a con-
stant shower of violets, mimosas, lilacs,
plnks, anemones, roses, and, in fact,
every flower to be found in bloom at the
season in that portion of France.
Some of the vehicles were remarkably
pretty, and among the most noticeable
was victoria entirely hidden with scar
let pinks, even the wheels being covered
with these flowers. Another vehicle was
a cart covered with verdure and vege.
tables and occupied by three pretty peas
ant girls, who threw leeks, carrots, cauli-
flowers. and even large cabbages as well
as flowers among the people. There
was, of course, great variety of cos
tunes and the battle was scene of ami
nation and beauty.

The heathens regarded the number
seven of great efficacy in religious cere-
monies. An ancient writer says "De-

this number is, above all others, most
proper in the concerns of religion"
A writer in the Atlantic for March,
speaking of the maliciousness of the
mocking bird, states that if young birds
are placed in cages where the parent
birds can have access to them, they will
feed their offspring regularly for Two or
three days, and then as if in despair,
will poison them, giving them the berry
of the black ash.
Some years ago travellers in Dalmatia
noticed large tracts of land covered by
wild flower near which not a sign of
insect life was visible. The bloom was
the pyrethrum, whose odor deals death
to the lower forms of life, and whose
powdered leaves form the basis of Gin
sect powders" The seed of this flower
was distributed in the United States,
and a Dalmatian has been growing it
with great success in Stockton, Cal.
