■pERNETTYA MUCRONATA is without JL doubt one of the handsomest plants of recent introduction. In appearance it resembles the myrtle, but the habit is more dwarf anJ compact, seldom growing more than 12 inches high. In early spring it produces pure white flowers resembling lily of the valley, and continues to bloom for about six weeks. The flowers are succeeded by large purple and red berries, produced in great profusion, which give the plant a handsome appearance during the dull months of the year. It will grow in any ordinary, garden soil, and, being thoroughly hardy in any part of the colony, will no doubt be largely cultivated as an ornamental shrub. George Matthews has a few extra choice specimens in berry and already showing well for bloom during the approaching spring. —A farmer, his wife, and four children, residing near Cork, were found to be all raving mad. They had eaten a portion of a sheep which had been bitten by a mad dog. —The highest known cost of a single pearl is said to have been paid by Tavernier at Catifa in Arabia.
