that it is for the " interest of Francs and England
to have an ally in reserve." What the Frenoh Em-

'rosy the deep regret with which her Majesty has to deplore
the low of a meet devoted sad able officer, by the death of
Field Marsha, Lord Eagles, the Cearmeader of the Forms
la the Crimea.

Ha Majesty las been piqued to command that her
leatlmests shall be essamnaketed to the army, in order that
themilltary saner of so illustrious ea (Meer shall be reeozded,
not only me ea honourable testimony of her biejeety's seam
of his emlseat service", and the respect dos to his memory,
but se ea example worthy of hate** by all ranks of her
army.

Selected by the Duke of Wellington to be his military
secretary and alde•de-amp, be took part, nearly 60 been
ago, in all the military achievements of our greatest am-
minder. From him Lord Raglan adopted as the guiding
principle of his life a mutant sadeviatiog obedience to the
all of duty.
During a lug peace, his life was most usefully employed
I. those unwearied attentions to the intends end welfare of
the army, shown by the kindness, the impartiality, and
Justice with which be transacted all his duties.
When war broke oat last year, he was selected by his
Sovereign to take the command of the army proeeediog to
the East; he never hesit►tsd, he obeyed the summons,
though he had reached an age when an often may be dis-
posed to retire from active duties in the field.
At the head of the troops daring the arduous operations
of the campaign, he resumed the early habits of his life ;
by his salmases in the hottest moments of battik and by
his quick perception in taking advantage of the ground, or
the movements of the enemy, he won the madame of his
army, and performed gnat and brilliant services.
In the midst of a winter's campsite, ha a severe climate,
and surrounded by difflcsities, he despaired.

The herds anti, whom fortitude amidst the mend pd.
vicious is rsoogaised by Her Majesty u beyond all praise,
have shown their attsoluseat to their Commander by the
deep regrets with which they now mourn his lam.
Her Majesty is confident that the talents and virtues
which distinguished Lord Raglan throughout the whole of
his valuable lib will for eves *mbar his memory to the
British army.

THE ROYAL BOTANICAL GARDENS, REGENT'S
PARK

The last exhibition this year of plants, flowers,
and traits took place yesterday, at the Society's Gardena.
Everythhig concurred to make this exhibition the most
brilliant of the whole Beeson. The plants, Sowers, and
fruits were in their highest perfection. The great tent
under which the flowers were exhibited was filled with
most perfect specimen. Especially were the orchids re-
marked for the beauty of their form and colour, and the
magnificence of their development. The collection of heaths
was considered very fine. The azaleas were perhaps Ism
perfect than many specimens which we saw at the
commencement of the season. The most etrikiar feature
of the exhibition next to the orchids consisted of an immense
collection of magnificent geraniums disposed in a circular
form in the centre of the room. Every flower, however,
that nature or art renders perfect at this reason was well
represented. The fruits were " rich and rare," is the opinion
of all those who had courage and endurance to amble them
to get occasional glimpses of their luxurious beauty, and to
indulge in the enjoyment of the perfume which they ex-
haled. It was lucky for Tantalus that the arts of modern
gardening were not understood in the days when he
received his punishment. Doubtless it was not pleasant
for him to look at a plate of wild strawberries
without being able to rush them. Bat how the in-
tunny of the punishment would have been increased by
the substitution of a dish of gigantic "British Queens I"
To plus before a starving 'phone a collection of fruit like
that shown at the gardens yesterday, and forbid him to
testa it, would be a refinement of punishment that could
not have entered into the imagination of the simple-minded
avengers who devised the castigation of the ancient king.
Gnat, however, as was the beauty of the exhibition yes-
terday, its principal charm consisted neither in the flowers
nor fruits. One was glad to escape from the crowded
rooms and look on the beauty of the scene present in the,
gardens themselves. A flood of such sunshine uis sot
very common in England was lighting up the rich tints of
the variegated parterres. Almost every spot not covered by
the plants was occupied by human beings, all apparently
gay and happy, and the fairer portion of them far more
beautiful than the flowers themselves. The mush' of the
military bands war good and incessant. The town seemed
to have emptied itself of nearly all its treasures of fashion
and beauty in order that the gardens of the Botanical
Society might be filled with them. No such eight could be
seen in any other °wintry in the world. It wee thwoly
!Webb ; and those foreigners who were present were load
in their praise of its beauty, and in their admiration of the
opulence which alone could have produced it.
Amongst the visitors at the gardens were their Royal
Rightsm's the Duchess of Cambridge, the Princess Mary of
Cambridge, and the Hereditary Grand Duchess of Meck-
lenburg fitrelite ; his Royal Highness the Duke of Cam-
bridge ; the Duchesses of Sutherland and St. Albano, the
Marchioness of Ailesbury ; the Countesses of Bradford and
Chesterfield; Ladies Downes, Caroline Stirling, Dane, En-
field, Catherine Cavendish, Diana Besuclero, Danvers,
Hamilton, Erle, Fellows, Matthews, Grant, Barrow, and
Hastings; their Excellencies the Sardinian Ambassador and
suite, the Spanish Ambassador and suit*, the Portsguese
Ambassador and smite, the BrazilianAnthassador and suite ;
the Marquis of Northampton, Earl Bradford, Lords Downes,
Dunn, John Chichester, and Pansure ; Sir Walter Stir-
ling, Sir G. Hodgkinson, Sir W. Newton, Sir James
Hamilton, Sir Claude Scott, Sit James Maedonell, Sir
Matthew Wyatt, Sir John Denton, Sir H. Willoughby,
Sir Peter Cole, and Sir Jas. Lush ington ; General Bouverie
and General Salter; sad Major-General Oliver.

In the photographs of Crimean heroes, just neared
at Portsmouth for her Majesty, the marines and marine
artillery were taken in a group by the side of a guo,
and the mantes, sinned in blue jaoksts, white trousers,
and ginned hats were grouped against s capstan, with a white
1 ensign lying from a flag-staff, an anchor, a coil of rope, deep
sea lead lbw, band lead line end log reel, arranged in suitable
positions. The *tares eo obtained will be very interesting
ones, and we (Porisminigh Chastain) believe it ii her
Majesty's intention to have paintings made from them, and
from similar groups of men belonging to other branches of
the services. _
