Judge Cox recognized the fact that counsel for the defense came hete a stranger te the court te. find himself en vironed with difficulties from the outset, yet he must exclude evidence of insanity in sur-rebuttal, but evidence showing the motive for the assassination might be ad mitted.

He also once rnore pronounced Sceville a jackass. The case being closed, Sceville asked for time te prepare his law points te submit te the judge, and after the prosecution had read their law points the court ad jeurncd until Saturday morning.

I saw a late order, after Bosten was thought sup plied, for many hundreds mere and saw them packing. Of course, I expended a little sentiment ever them and would like te have seen each's destination. Leng age each bulb was raised in Germany ; it crossed the sea, found rest for a little time here, bloomed under the Ieviug care of our German florist and yesterday reached its fruition and te-morrow it will be dead. Four years it took te bring that flower te perfection which yesterday brought you a Christmas greeting, told you some story its giver meant it should, or perhaps went into tired hand at rest forever. I saw seventy thousand of these lilies in the green house yesterday in dif ferent stages, all showing green leaves and many wide opened bells. Fifty-two hun dred went te New Yerk and I de net knew hew many te Bosten. There are four thousand tulips set out in the same house and thousands of these went te the great cities. Every bulb came from Helland. It is the loveliest of sights te go down this long aisle in the lily house with borders et fragrant green and white flowers, se pure in color and perfume, each blossom literally worth its weight iu geld. These flowers go from here te every great city, especially te New Yerk, Philadelphia, Bosten and Washington, and fortunately they-will keep three times as long asa rose, and are therefore much sought after.
