Hav ing been over the greater part of tfie State, this gentleman is assured that exaggeration is at least a fitting term for what has been vonced aa "actual conditions." He says the banks are safely over the necessities of semi hoarding, and as tha feeling of se curity takes possession once more of the people of 11 classes the "rlt" scare has very nearly passed away.

The maples wear the red glow of courageous industry, and there are wonderfully large and per slstent buds on trees of the peach and plum, the cherry and elm, and varied others of the tree family. The Iliac buds are swelling as if in earnest Tor Ill-timed blooming, and the snow ball bushes make a chow of tha same in tent to swell themselves into full and refreshing blossoming. Tho violets, regardless of scared leaf and withered clusters are. forging ahead as If to deny their claimed -prerdgatlve ,of priceless modesty.
