What reformation vuuld be effected in the world. f I j .-1 Beautiful Floirrr.?A friend presented us ; a day or two since with a curiosity in the shape | of a flower, which we think, is one of the greatj est wonders of the floral kiirgdom we have ever I seen. It is about the size of a walnut, perfectly white, with fine leaves resembles very much i indeed the wax plant. Upon the blooming of the flower in the cup fo.rfied by the leaves, is I the exaVt image of a dove lying on its backwith I its wings extended. The peak of the bill and i the eyes are plainly to be seen, and a small leaf i before the flower arrives at matuiity forms the | outspread tail. This leaf can be raised or shut I down with the fingers, without breaking or upj parently injuring it, until the flower reaches its I lull bloom, when it drops ofl". We regret our inability to give a technical desciiption of this J curiosity at this time, but hope to do so shortly i as one has been promised us by a person every i way qualified to wailo it.?Panama Slur. j A VttoA!fi>M.?One of the most popular j vulgarisms of the day is embodied in the word | ' patronage." We have always been i.t a loss | to understand this term as incorporated with the language of the times. If a man buys a pair [ of boots, getting the full value of his money, he , calls himself the "patron" of the manufacturer. ; 'l'he purchaser of six cents' worth of tobacco I or n penny-worth of taj o is a 'patron,'and j looks upon those on whom he lavishes this "pa tronage" with a condescending eye, as if he j had fed, clothed, and sheltered them. One's j patron, regarding the term in its true light, is a | persons who gives one alms. Patronage in ; short is ehaiitable protection, it is no patronage to give money for its full value. The term, us notv most generally employed, is one of a most senile sycophantic character, and it should be expunged from the modern vocabulary.
