SHAMROCK.— It is, we suppose, 

 quite impossible to produce document- 

 ary evidence as to what was the true 

 shamrock, as Saint Patriclv forgot to 

 dry any specimens for reference, and 

 left no figure by which it might be 

 determined. The plant most general- 

 ly accepted by the Irisli is Trifolium 

 minus. It is a common plant through- 

 out Europe, thriving on poor soils, 

 and differing from most of the clovers 

 in having heads of small, yellow flow- 

 ers; the terminal leaflet is raised on a 

 short stalk. Oxalis acetosella is a 

 much more elegant plant, in which 

 the central leaflet is sessile. Trifolium 

 repens, the so-called white or Dutch 

 clover, so named from having been 

 introduced commercially from Hol- 

 land, frequently does duty for sham- 

 rock; it is a common wild plant. Med- 

 icago lupulina. which has a leaf simi- 

 lar to that of Trifolium minus, is also 

 sometimes used as shamrock.
