PUBLIC IemAMTMATIOR or LAW STUDERTS.—(THIS
Dar.)—This morning, at half-past 9, a large number of stu-
dents at law, who are candidates for the honours awarded by
the Council of Legal Education, assembled in the Benches'
Reading-room of Lincoln's-inn, for the purpose of submitting
themselves for the prescribed examination. The morning was
occupied in an examination on constitutional law and legal
history. To-morrow and Friday the students will be examined
in common law, the law of real property, jurisprudence, and
the civil law. At the close of the proceedings a student-
ship, of the value of 50 guineas per annum, will be awarded
to the gentleman who has pained the best examination, and
three others of whom there are the most favourable re-
ports, will be allowed to dispense with any terms, not ex-
ceeding two, that may remain to be kept by them pre-
viously to their being called to the tar. The examiners
have announced that, in determining the . question
whether a student has passed the examination in such a
manner as to entitle him to be called to the bar, they will
principally have regard to the general knowledge of law
and jurisprudence which he has displayed, and it has been
further arranged that at every call to the bar those students
who have pulsed a public examination and either obtained
a studentship or certificate of honour shall take rank in
seniority over all other students who shall be called on the
same day.
THE CHRYSANTHEMUMS IN 'ERE TEMPLE-GARDENS.
—By order of the beechen', the Temple.gardens were thrown
open yesterday morning, sod will continue open during the
week (with the exception of Thursday), in order that the
public may have ample opportunities of seeing Mr. Broome's
splendid growth of chrysanthemums and pompoues. For
many years past Mr. Broome has distinguished himself by
splendid collections of these beautiful flowers, but this year
he appears to have eclisped all his former efforts, and has
produced a floral show of the most magnificent character.
Three sides of the square are occupied by the Bowen, the
beet specimens being ranged on the north side of the garden,
and placed under canvas. The artistic manner in which they
are disposed retlects greet credit on Mr. Broome's skill.
Some of the flowers are of gigantic proportions, considering
the circumstances under which they ordinarily develop
themselves (particularly the classes ranged under the titles
of " The Golden Queen of England," " The Queen of
Ensdand," " M. Laborde,* sod " Lady Harding.") ; and
the pompanos, which are the dwarves of chrysanthemums,
appeared to have ettained perfection as nearly ma partible.
These flowers, which have hitherto been conspicuous only
for their beauty of colour and delicacy of form, have this
year had a slight scent of lavender infused into them. The
experiment has often been tried without any good result,
but the success of the present year leads to the hope that
Mr. Broome may in future years achieve still greater suc-
ensue in the same direction. Connoisseurs, and the public
generally, should not lose time in seeing his dieplay,of which
Templar are justly proud, as a wet day or two, or •
nipping night frost, would effectually mar Use beauty of
the delicate flowers.

GAS MEYER TERY/NO.—A new structure, occu-
pying the angle at the sod of King-street, Covent-garden
and Long-acre. hitherto a plot of waste ground, was on Mon-
day completed by Mews. Hemming, of Old Ford. Bow, for
the Metropolitan Board of Works, by whom it is about to
be opened and used as a depot for the testing and inspection
of gas meters at the West-end of the metropolis, under the
provisions of Lord Itedesdale's Gas Act. The building is a
combination of wood and zinc 70 feet long by 30 feet wide,
and has all the appearance of a amp barrack. It is being
furnished with the necessary testing apparatus. end models
of standard gm-holders similar to those at the office of the
Comptroller General of the Exchequer.
