OARDENINO OPERATIONS FOR THE
ENSUING WEEK.
(From the Gardener's Chronicle.)
PLANT DEPAKTIIIINT.
Foacuta-nousK.—llere, there will of necessity be
many plants differing from each other in their nature, and
in the degree of heat which they require. Some will bt ar
more beat than others, and these will be best placid by
themselves at the warm end of the bcuse, while those re
guiting less heat can have the cool end, end be more freely
supplied with air. The structure used for plant.foreieu
should be of the lightest possible description, the inside
being panted or coloured white, and the plans placed on
or plunged in white gravel, or light coloured sand, in order
that the greatest possible amount of light may be diffused
and reflected amongst their foliage. The glass and laps should
be perfectly clean. The ventilaton should be 83 arranged that
the air may be admitted under the pipes, and thus warmed
to the temperature of the house betore it comes in contact
with the plants. Top air should be given by opening every
sash a little, in preference to admitting the same quantity fn
several large currents. As the flowers expand, the plants
should be removed to a cooler and drier atmosphere, with a
view to prolong their period of thnniog. It should be
remembered that forced' plants require a greater supply of
water than the generality of plat.ta at this Gentian ; and wh n
they are in a fit state to receive water, let sufficient be given
to moisten thoroughly every partof the soil. Excepting in
very dull weather, the syringe may be used with advantage
once a day, upon those plants whose flowers have not yet
expanded. Use water of the same temperature as the house
for this purpose, as well as for watering the plants.
FORCING DIPARTNINT.
The early sown melons will now be progressing, and a bed
or pit should be got in readiness for them. la preparing
beds for them, which are to be heated with litter, they should
be so contrived that the necessary degree of heat may be
obtained without the risk of burning the roots; but, at this
early period, heating by means of hot-water pipes is far pre
tete*. The pipes for supplying bottom beat should be
merely a continuation of the tope.leat pipes through the pit,
and should be covered with a few inches of gravel, upon
which is laid from 14 to 18 inches of soil, for putting thu
punts into. Ale thus obtain top and bottom heat by the
same circulation; and nothing can gnaw, r beta,. The
earliest melee 1 have tried lathe Trentham Hybrid, which is
also • tree beim. Look carefully to the litter uptti the early
vine border, and see that ft does not become too warm;
6.5 deg. to 73 deg. is sufficient at this early season.
rLoasars' FLOWIHUA
Palliating be placed in heat lorthwith; the thick first

iwaseired, the pleats may be yi.ced hi a colder situation, or,
if -the frame ie u revolving sue, they may be made to trent

eseased, tatting care at all time to avoid hard or spring
water. Toe foliage should not be mui.teued, or the hearts
of the pleats-filled with water, as circles. N4rists will some-
times do, to their almost amain detriment. Keep accrue'

HARPS FRUIT GANDLN.
Thetiraningof wall trees ensued now be progressing with
ell speed, and peaches or Demme. en the open walls, which
have any show for fruitehould be prat oted, if th-e has not ml
reedy been attended to. (See oar re narks on this in January.)
Among the espalier fruit trees, the flower buds of many of the
hardier kinds see swelling fast; and, as we may yet exoect
some severe weather, prudence points oat the propriety of
protecting anything which is choice or valu.ble. For this
purpose, nothicg is cheaper then spruce or yew breathe ,
which ars also of considerable service in retardieg the open-
ing of the blatant, until the melee is more favourable for
the:, safe development. Thu ground should be forked over
amongst bush fruits, taking cars to injure the surface roe a
as little u possible, for upon tease the fertility of the tree
mainly depends. The strawberry beds should also be looked
over, the dead leaves and runners remuved, and if it we.
omitted last autumn, the plants 6h uld be thinned when
they require it. Some dry soot should now he due ed it.
animist them to destroy lintels; after which the specie
between the rows should be manured, and lightly forked
over without breaking their routs. We field old mushroom-
beds excellent top dressings for strawberries.

THIS DAY.

MARSHAL HAYNAU.—THE PANTOMIMES AND THE
LORD CRAYRISRLLIN.—The incidents of Haynie'. visit to
Bankeide, as every playgoer knows, have been seized on by
the authors of nearly all the pants mimes of the mason, area
the passages in which they are introduced have never failed
to elicit applause. After the lapse of more than a mouth
the Lord Chamberlain Ins seen fit to take official notice of
this personal reterence, and in one instance to request its
omission. In coast queues of the suggestion of the Lord
High Chamberlain, conveyed through Sir William Mar:in,
two comic scenes have this week been cut out of the panto.
minuet Astley's Amphitheatre, one representing the eats-
riot of Barclay's brewery, with draymen, heroes, tho. ;
the other the bed-room of the public bout in
which the Baron took refuge. As it is not imagined
that the government could see soy possible evil likely to arise
from this representation, the popular inference is that this
Interference has been prompted by the Austrian ambassador.
Among other pietas, the representation of which has been
Mapped by the authorities at the chamberlain's odic,. may
be naontioned the highly p,pular hippo-i ntaglio spectacle of
"Tarpin's Ride to York," which has been played on the
burds of most of the metropolitan and provincial theatres for
air lain thirty.fiveyean. The performance of "Jack Shep.
peed" and "Oliver Twist," as dramsti.ed from the rer-ione
ed Harrison Ainsworth and Charles Dickens, has also been
usiereioted. In military ',pentacles, illustrative of the
triumphs of British arms, the L ,rd Chamberlain's officials
refuse to allow the names of living heroes to appear as
dramatis persona., they being merely described by the title
of their appointment., such se the "Commander of the
British Fortes," or the "General Commanding-in-Chief,"
" Colonel of the Life Guards," tin ' • and in one or two c, sof,
"The Affghanistan War," for instance, which was pro-
duced at Arley's, the manuscript was returned to the Lord
Chsmborlain't-office, in order to ascertain that the :equine]
a Iterations had been mad*. The playbills of each theatre
sa d " sal:on " licensed by the Lord Chamberlain are regu-
lar, 'y supplied at his office, at St. James's.
S VILREE CON6UIIIIIL6' OAS LIOHT AND COKE
AMP ClATlON.—Yesterday the ceremony of laying the Nun-
gam. stone of the works of this company at Rotherhiths ,
was pe, 'formed by the Lord Maser in presence of a large
eeweoun •of spectators. The spot selected for the erection
was a kn..* plot of ground known as Bennett's Wharf, is
immediate proximity to the river, and the works will extend
over a spit • of four acres. It appeared that the annual
amount Moo. M to be carbonised at these works when in full
operation wiL' be 24,090 tone, making 216,810,000 cubic I
feet of gu. TL's proceedings of the day were commenced by
Mr. Bensford, o he of the directors of the company, who, on
thinking the Lon, t Mayor for his kindness in attending on the
occasion, stated ths t the object of thin association was to supply PS
