BOTANICAL.
From the Gleanings of Husbandry.
WILD FLOWERS.
BY A LADY.
Of all the natural sciences, botany has
received the least general attention; although
its materials where exist,
and beautify the sterroffoad side, as
well as the more retired paths of greenwood
and dale. And when called abroad
for .exercise, by the soft* gentle wail of
the west wind, and the clear, blue heaven*
above, (for who has not felt the
soul-pervading influence of the blue sky)
another element of enjoyment, not less
. attractive, is always at hand. A beautiful
tree, graceful in all its proportions
T-the softest breeze, undulating usueep
green garniture, which never wearies
tneeye, is one of the noblest objects in
nature; and when stripped of its foilage,
as trees are in New England, for nearly
half the year, of course much of their
individuality is lost, yet there is a majesty
about them?a desolation of grandeur,
which cannot fail to inspire a reverence
for the Author of every change.
But Spring is the peculiar season in
which the vegetable world displays most
of its attractions. The early wild flowers
of this genial latitude, are remarkably
beautiful, and deserve a place in the
most cultivated pastures.
The yellow jassamine (gelseminum,
sempervirens,) when transplanted, improves
in fragrance and luxuriance, and
w one of the most beautiful vines in the
world. There are many specie? of the
Bignonia, and other flowering vines.?
Among indigeneous-shrubs, are to be
found many species of Azallea,?one a
that mav vie in beauty
Ul IdLIM. OVMi IVVf , w
with many exotics of tne same genus,
exhibited in* our Northern Conservatories.
*
.The fringe tree (chionanthus,) is more
generally known, perhaps than the styrax,
which, when in bloom resembles the
orange tree?a monopetalous white corrolia,
very sweet and ornamental. The
ACsculus Macrostachja or dwarf horse j
chesnut, is*found on the'banks of the
Savannah, in elevated situations?has a j
long spike of delicate white flowers, and
very rich foliage. It is from ten to
twenty feet in height, and well merits
the attention of the florist. The expense
and labour of cultivating flowers in less
fertile regio'ns is here obviated by the
I>eauty and luxuriance of indigenous
plants, tvhich should And a place in
every spot of ground unoccupied within
our limits, arid not suffer them "to waste
their fragrance on the desert air."
Botany should be the favorite science
of every intelligent woman. It is more
within her reach, than any other science
and better adapted to herpbysical capacities,
than Geology or Chemistry; requiring
less use of the spade than the
former, and less apparatus in making
experiments, than the latter. And if it
does not furnish her mind with results
as brilliant, it will give a tone of dignity
and elevation to her character, that wijl
happily aid her in the discharge of the
high and varied duties of life. To use
the language of the gifted writer, "no
science is more distinguished than botany
for the enlargement and permanence
of its general views, for the sweetness
and accuracy of its reasonings, for the
sure and cautious deductions on which
its grand principles are established, for
the demonstrations of the harmony and
contrivance with which the organic
world is ordered, and especially, ^ for a
spirit of patient and profound philosophy
which alone can confer upon a -science,
real dignity and value." To obtain a
rank among the most distinguished botanists
of the present day, demands not
only long and laborious investigation,
but the exercise of talents that belong to
the highest order of mind ; for the relations
to be discovered, and the principles
to be deduced, must'be the result of
profound and untiring reflection. But
it is not for purposes of distinction, that
woman acquaints herself with any science.
Neither is it from ostentatious
motives, that she employs- her few
leisure moments in the pursuit of
literary or scientific attainments. Her
opportunities are too limited, to aftftrd
the hope of enlightening the world, even
if her ambition became so expansive.?
But it is the part of Wisdom, to seek
some mental condiment, to prevent the
starvation of mind. Should destiny
place her where intellectual society is
(ess cultivated, even, than?wild flowers,
?it is to furnish herself with resources*
in the absence of congenial minds, and
to enable her to instruct her children,
and inspire them with a taste for useful
pursuits, that she should form habits of
mental Research and industry.
There is no science so unpopular
among vulgar minds, as that of botany;
and even, among the more refined, and
well informed on other subjects, none so
appreciated. Its most unfortunate
phases have generally been presented to
public view, and hard names, and ah unmeaning
nomenclature to the uninitiated
have been obstacles of no smalL magnitude,
and unluckily*mystified one of the
most regularl? developed sciences in
the<4pjprld. The artificial system of
Linnseus cannot be examined and understood,
without marvel and admiration
at a discovery so important ; for we 1
must know the name ot a plant, before
we can make any references, in order to
ascertain its properties and uses. Let
any one establish the practice of analy- i
zing flowers, the vocabulary will soon I
become familiar by the use of living
illustrations, ?nd by observing the minutiae
of leaves, stems, and flowers, new
varieties and beauties will be constantly I
unfolding themselves, and the affinities <
and differences of their organic structure I
will suggest the soul-stiring exclamation <
"The hand that made thein is divine." j j

aiXSOBLLA.NSOtJ'B,
REMARKABLE ANECDOTE.
The particulars of the following very
striking incident were lately told us by a
friend, as a fact fulling within the range of
his personal knowledge! and having the
* - i- i.
most perfect confidence in his veracity, we
scruple not to give it as such to our read*
ers.
In a seaport town on west coast of Englund,
some years ago, there was notice giv.
en of a sermon to be preached on Sunday
evening, in a dissenting chapel there. The
preacher was a man of celebrity great in
bis calling, and that circumstance, together
the pious object of the discourse?to enforce
the duty of strict . observation of tbe
Sabbath?attracted an overflowing audience.
After the usual perfactory prayer
und hymn of praise, the preacher gave
out the text, and was about to proceftd,
when he suddenly paused, leaned his head
on the pulpit, ondVemained silent for a few
moments. It was imagined yiat he had
become indisposed, but he soon recovered
himself; and addressing the congregation,
said, that before entering on his discourse,
he begged to narrate to them a short anec
dote. "It is now exactly fifteen years,
said he, "since 1 was last within this place
of worship; and the occasion was, as many
here may remember, the very same as thai
which has now brought us together.?
Among those that came hither that evening
were three young men, who came rtol
only with the intent of insulting and mocking'the
venerable pastor, but -even with
stones in their pockets to throw at him 81
he stood in his pulpit. Accofdinglyi thdy
"had not listened long to the discourse, when
one of them said impatiently, 'vmy need we
listen any longer to the blockhead??throw!
but the second stopped him, saying, let ut
first see what he makes of this point,'?
Tne curiosity of the latter was no soonei
sutisfied, than he cried, *ay, confouncTHim
it is only as I expected1?throw now !'?But
here the third interposed, and said it
would be better altogether to give up thf
design which- brought them there. At this
remark his two associates took offence, arid
left the church, while he remained to the
end. Now, mark, my brethren," continued
the preacher wiih much emotion, "what
were afterwards the several fates of these
young men. The first'was *hqiged man)
years ago at Tyburn, for the criyte of forgery;
the second is now lyin^.ider sentence
of death for murder in the jail in this
city. The third, my brethren"?and the
speaker's agitation became excessive, whilt
he paused an 1 wiped the large drops from
his brow?"the third, my bretheren, is he
who is about to address you?listen tc
hiin."?The Watch Tower.
THE DIFFERENCE. .
John nnd James we're brothers?the lasi
about^sixteen, and the first eighteen yeari
when the subject of intemperance was firs
presented in the place where they lived.?
This was in 1827. They had just lost
their father, who was a respectable sma 1
farmer, and they were the only remaining
children of their widowed mother. Jolir
joined the temperance society nt the firsi
meeting ho attended, and was soon indented
un apprentice. Liquor was daily
brought into the shop, and the owner with
his journeymen and other, apprentices,
usually drank of it. More than half ol
ih' se have become drunkards, and six ol
i ci_ ,
tiiem nil disMonoreu graves, no wno was
the owner of the shop, and a thriving, re.
spectabltj mechanic, is now a poor internperate
journeyman to his former apprentice
John C
When the youth was urged by his mastei
arid shopmates, to panicipate in the intox.
iciiting beverage with them, he usuallj
replied, "it will do me no good% and may bi
the means of making me a drunkard, j
jean not break my pledge." In less than
two years, John had bstaolished a charactei
for industry, truth and honesty, which made
him respected by his master and ail hit
companions, while the customers were anx.
ions to have their work superintended, i
not done by him. He served out his ap,
prenticeship, when he was mnde foreman
of the shop, in which capacity his good
character and correct temperate habits
were the principal means of continuing fht
patronage of the- Public. "Temporal
thinking" hud led the owner and most o
the workmen step by, step, unptfceived by
Miemselves to drunkenness, with its usua
attendants, idleness, profanity, falsehood
sabbath-breaking, nnd gross dishonesty.
Aft? r two years of many triads, and an
increased good character, John was made
President of the "Yuung Men's Temper
anee Society"?about that time also, ht
commenced business for himself. He
could select his customers, for his reputa
tion ns a mechanic and a man, drew many
10 his shop. Ho took his mother to h'i
house, as soon as ho had one, and is the
solace and comfort of her declining years.
He is at the head of a large and respectuble
establishment; .beloved and honoured in
his neighborhood ; has furnished a large
library for the Sunday School, and has
been its superintendent for the last two
years.
When asked by his old master or any
others how he came to be so lucky 1" he
replies, **it is not Muck,* but it was t|ie res.
olulion my Heavenly Father enabled me to
make and keep, that intoxicating liquors
will do me no good, and may be ike means
of my becoming a drunkard."
Now see the difference. The hiVory of
his younger brother is a brief and sad one.
He always refused to unite with a temper,
nnce society ; said he*cou!d take care ol
himself ; knew when he had enough, and
would never be a drunkard, and that he
would not sign away his liberty. Me too,
was an apprentice, had "difficulty" with
his master, and left him. Another "difficulty"
caused him to leave the second and
Ivrd places. At twenty-one he was a
irunkard ; in two years more he was a
sot. One cold night latt winter, he pawned
lis poor coat for a p:nt of rum to a rum

half of it immediately. . He was turned
out of the bar.room, and next morning,
about half a mile dislunt was found a siifc
fened corpse, silting by a fence in the road,
and his bottle nearly empty by him' Young
reader, see the differtlice ! and most of all
see what led to the difference* We kindly
ask you, what course you will pursue
respecting intoxicaung drinks and temper,
