AN th,n Bose BUSll.—There is, or
was, until lately, a 1(0.e bush flour-ratt
ing near Bristol, Pit , known to be over
a hundred years old. In the year 1742
there was it kitetren built which en
croached'on the corner of the garden,
and the masons laid the corner-stone
with great Care, saying, "It would be a
pity to destroy so pretty a bush "
teonee then it has never tailed to pro
duce a profusion of t °Mi.., shedding
around the mom delicious of perfumes.
Sometimes it has climbed for yearn
o'er the second-story windows, and
then by degrees declined to the ordina
ry height. The fifth generation know
its fragrance and its beauty. Not tar
from this veneruble bush stands a but.-
ton-wood tree memorial thirty-three
feet in circumference.
