Tug Res. ifr. Wagner has been presented by his
ongregaiion and friends with an orldrese expressive of
heir approval of his conduct in relation to Miss Kent, I
ad their sympathy with him under the unmerited

if his duty. The addreu was signed by above 620 per.
ono, and was accompanied by • cheque for £271 128.6 d.

de reply, Mr. Wagner says : "It is • consolation tome
o think that Jo many friend, whose good opinion I do
should not disapprove of the comae which I have
alien, and should have also come forward so generously
say so."

Vorticti4M,

EAHLT4LOWERING tulips, during the spring months
are singularly gay and effective. Their time of fluster-
ing immediately succeeds that of the crocus, snowdrop,
bulbocudium, early 'minas, and other spring-blooming
bulbous plants; and they iiri) out of bloom in time for
bedding-out operations to be proceeded with.

EARLY PRA.—The seedsinan and the practical
gardener lull learn not to expend their shillings on
novelties which have little new about them, nave the
name, while real pe. lovers, those who partake with
thankfulness of the fruits of the earth in due season,
will still rrtain their prefereoce for the later varieties.
—Gardeners Chronicle.

How or why is it, asks the Gardeners' Chronicle, that
the timber, say of the Scotch pine, grown in the north
of Europe is of ID much greater value than that of the
same treo grown further south? A similar question
hss often been asked, and its very frequency shows
that no perfectly satisfactory reply has as yet been
given. M. Chatin revives the question in a paper on the
itiga pine, lately published in the "Biallain do la
Imperiale Acclistalation."

THIC Gardeners' Chronicle mentions • peculiar con-
dition to which reach leaves under glass are subject,
front the sudden admission of a cold draught, when they
are spotted with wster-drops ; and a similar condition in
• young cherry tree, where the effect was evidently pro-
diced by the combined action of cold and moisture.
Portions of the leaves besorne brown; they then com•
pletely lose their vit.lity, and as the rest of the leaf is
developed the little dead patches fsll out.

Wasps.— It may not be uninteresting to knew that
in this helghbottrhood not a single wasp has been seen
since May. In April we thought that every fruit would
be destroyed, so numerous were the queens which were
flying about. One person is said to have paid over £6
for their destruction; but there cisme frosts in May,
et 04.14 that on the night of the let of that month
After the occurrence of these not a wisp has been seen
by ally one. Whether or not the genus has been so
thoroughly destroyed as not to be again seen Ismail-Is tu
be seen.—John Scott, hierriott, Somerset, in Gardeners,
Gam+ iege.

How TO GROW PEACHES AND NECTARINKB.—Mr
B. most promptly told we what he considered the
grounds of his succeu in peach and nectarine culture.
I. To making the compost, loam, and rotten manure
quite solid in the pot. by ramming it while potting the
tree. 2. To the low lateral ventilation employed ; in
avan-roof,d houses 14 feet wide, • shutter 1 foot in
width on hinges opening downwards on each aide of the
house on the same level, the lower part of the openings
about 18 inches from the surface of the soil; in house
24 feet wide, the shutters 18 inches wide; in all cases
the opening at the *rime height from the ground: ne
roof ventilation, but merely • triangular aperture at
each and under the gable, about a foot in depth, to let
off the heated air. 3. To the calcareous nature of all
the composts ire uses, which is so favourable to the
dunking and well.doing of all stone fruits. 4. To the
constant attention paid to summer•surface dressings of
finely chopped manure saturated with liquid manure, or
horse droppings from the roads treated in the same way.
This is always lying on the surface of the pot above the
rim, in a concave form, so as to retain water; the
surface of the earth in the pots is never suffer, d to
become bare and dry; if so, red spider soon maketita
appearance. —Gardenera' Chronicle.
