Knme iwrnen has Kaid that alter yen pick nut tw enty-llve or thirty of the best varteliea, the remainder are scarcely worth growing. Te all persons who think that that is the case, I will merely say they are very much mistaken. 1 leel confident that there are at least fle hundred varieties new existing In the United States that have no mero re semblance te each ethor than one variety et rese U-ars te another. One variety Is white, another may be white, but of an entirely dillerent shape. One blooms early in Octo ber another early In December. One with small flowers, barely one inch In dlameter, another with (lowers of an enormous size, probably se en inches across. The distinction lie tw con varletlisls apparent te all who ox ex ox amine theui closely. As for twouty-llve geed varieties, I think you will find that Kome et the competitors ter the thirty dollars premium offered by tills society, will exhibit one hundred varietles alldltlerlng from each ether, and se excellent that it would be Im possible te procure thiee persona whose taste would agree in chasing twonty-flve or thlilyottlie best onto! the ene hundred. or even titty or sevonty-llve of tlie best. They era all geed they will aay. MOW TASTKS UIV'KKR.

The reasons for the great popularity of the c.hrysatituemum are ; first, the great diver sien el colere, nicy prenauiy compose mero shades of color than any ether spocles or plants iu existence.

Anether roaseu, and a most excellent ene It is, the plants will succeed reasonably well wllh little or no attention : liewever, extra care bestowed upon them will repay ler the trouble. In grewlug plants ler exhibition It la best te tram the plant te a single stem for at bust six Inches above the ground, then pinrli out the top. which will cause the latent buds lit the axils of the leaves te push out making the branches. De net allow any bauches lower than ene Inch trout the earth, aud be sure and keep all the suckers, that should spring up 111 the pet, cut out Jtepel the plants whenever the pet la tilled with roots, from a small pet Inte ene or two inches larger, and se until you have placed them in mi eight or ten-Inch pet, wbere they should remain. When this sired pet la filled witli roots give the plant manure water about onceawoek. This can be made very con veniently by dissolving a large table-spoon-full or pure Peruvian guano In two gallons of water. Tie the plantewell up tetheaUkea te prevent their being brekeu.

On motion of Mr. Coejior, tlie question or holding a special meeting, or the society at Htrasburg was taken up. Mr. Cooper favored tlie holding or a moot meet ing In thai borough and In ethors te which the soclety may be invited. Mr. Kngle hoped thai bofero the Hclal meeting was decided en the mombers of the soclety would make it a point te attend it, and net ilepend en the local tnemtxjrs te mnke It a success. Jehnsen Mlller hoped also that special nr nr raugements would be made te have a big meeting and that an appropriate pregramme be prepared se that there would be no lack of matter for discussion. l'resldent 1-andlssald from what he had heard, the people would contribute their full share et essays and papera te the meeting. Mr. Wltmer believed the meetings or the society should be held lit Lancaster, but was wllllnir In try this oxperlmontal meeting nnd suggested that the meeting beheld In May, as tlie April weather was very capricious. Mr. Cooper suggosted the ith or May as a pretier time, anether member the 15th and another the '.2d. Finally thodate was left blank, te be filled at the next meeting or the society.

Woaver answored the question "whether the originators or anewtrtiit or llower should have the boneflt of the patent laws." He thought they should have some recognition from the state and nation, though he was net prepared te advocate the issuance of a patent te every ene who originates n new siiecles of plant or tlower, and thus tax the whole poeplo for the benellt or a slngle Individual. He favored elevating the agri cultural bureau at Washington te a cabinet position. Jeseph !'. Wltmer was glad te hear the agricultural bureau speken well of foreuco. i'er his own part he bad tried many fruits plants and seeds sent him trem the bureau, and they were all inlserable failures. The nuostlen was further discussed by Messrs. Kngle, I'yfcr, Wltmer, Weaver and llreslus, the general drift et opinion being that organizations of new varieties or plants Ac, could take care of thomuelves without any new laws ou the subject.

II. M. Kngle held similar views and hoped the society would de all It can te oxtend bout culture, Kveu if it was unsuccessful se far as sugar making was concerned, the lieets were most excellent for cattle. Mr. Llnvllle said tlie great difficulty In establishing the industry is that the beets cannot be raised for the prices otlerod by tlie ractorles, ler converting It Inte sugar.

Washinoten, April n. The (lelitlcAt eatililrnti has persistently refused te bell this winter at tlie national capital, dosplte the strenuous oil eris or ambitious politicians te kindle partisan fires. Thore has been no particular exciting debates in clther house of Congress. I'er a day or two the discussion of Senater Kdmiinds' report en the refusal of the ntterney general te furnish the papers in the Duskliicase, attracted an unusual num ber et visitors te the Sonate gallones, but the dobate seen ceased te draw. lly the way, 1 have net seen n statement of Senater Kdiuiinds' real motlve In endeav oring te array the Kepttbllcan senators against the administration en the subject of removals Iromelllro. It was simply n heroic effert en the part of thoVennont senator te re instate hlmseir in the confidence of, bis own party. Ily his persistent refusal te take any part in the lest presidential cam palgn.Mr. Edmunds lest cast as a party man. The lllalne Republicans placed upon him the responsibility ler the olection of Cloveland, and the accusation was ene net easily dis proved. He was the candldatoel the Mug wump Republicans at Chicago, and when thev refused te support Blaine and he declined evon te wrlte a letter in favor el the party nominee, the conclusion was Irre Irre slstlnle that he was net only In sympathy with the Mugwump Republican desire te secure lllalne s defeat, but that he had an understanding with him te keep out or the canvass altogether. A Hcech from Kdmunds at the critical juncture or the campaign In New Yerk or Ilroeklyn would undoubtedly have had a very great eflwt. It probably wenid have tinu trolled a sufficient number el voters te have turned the slender Democratic majority Inte a slender Republican one. At any rate, Kdmunds bolievod that it was necessary ler him te rehabilitate himself, and se he sought the earliest opportunity te make an Insue with Cleveland's administra tion en the question of removals. He was bound te de somellilng te let Republicans knew that he was net te profit by the deleat of lllalne nt the hands of his succusarul com petitor. That was the oxtent te which prin ciple was Involved In the so-cailed great dis cussion of the llmunds Judiciary commit commit commit tee report in the Sonate. Klivit'Nns is Tin: cet.l). It Is no secret hore that enough Republi can senaters have all alone; been willing te confirm nominations te leave Mr. Kdmunds out lit the cold whonever the square Issue was made. They could net ntlerd te vete with tlie DomecintH te defeat the resolutions with which Kdmunds report closed, but when in executlve session it was an eiy nii.tter te justify their vetes rer con Urina Urina teons ou the ground that they were then dealing with the nierlts el particular ceses. Of cotirse there are wheels within wheels in this light. The Republican sena sona sena eors who go back en Kdmunds In oxecutlvo sessions have their reasons for se doing. Some doubtless expect favors from the ad ministration. Others may waut te gratify lllalne, who will undoubtedly be delighted te see Kdmunds humiliated by bis lallure te control his iarty frlend,soven after they have veted for his resolutions. As I have said, thore Is but a languid interest taken In txilitics. But if- there was te be a national Republican convention held to morrow, lllalne would be reneminated, it would, or course, lie foolhardy te venture a iiredlctien as te what will happen In June or uly, iMf, but lllalne Is undoubtedly tlie Republican choice at this tlme.

This may jurtly be accounted for by the lact that very many et mis ciavs were rinur men because they wanted favors from his admin istration. n r.. ink's hook.

The Republicans are, or course, doing their level best te make political capital out or the Investigation. They have ene man of great ability en the committee Judpe 1 'annoy, or Bosten. He Is a Invvyoret large ex perlence, and whlle his examinations or witnesses are tedious and unnecessarily prolix, he always succeeds in making his txitits.

But he will never resuineliU duties as secretary or the treasury. There is a great deal or speculation as te who his successor wilt be, but there Is no re.ise'i te bellove tlie president has yet made up his mind in re gard te It. I think tliere is great probability of a reorganization or the cabinet and that this will have considerable lutluonce ou tlie selection or Mr. Mannlug's successor. It Is trtte that thore is very considerable dissatisfaction wltti the administration among Doraecratie senators and representatives, but this will measurably dlsappe.tr bofero tlie final adjournment et Congress. The trouble is net se much ulxjut patrouage as It is it feel ing that the administration has net accom plished what was expected or It. The cabinet was largely made up or inexperienced men and nt men who were net possessed of oxocu exocu oxecu tlvo capacity.
