SOUTH LONDON HORTICULTURAL
SOCIETY.

The first flower show of this society took place on
Thursday morning, at the Surrey Z-yological Gardens.
The weather was fatal to a large attendance of visitors,
but the show itself was of a very splendid description,
and elicited great admiration from those who were pre-
sent. The following is a list of the prizes:—

CLASS TIIE FIRST.—PRIVATE GROWElTS.—Miscella-
nec.us Plants, Messrs. Cole, Bruce, Young, Hemp, and
Hook; Pelargoniums, Messrs. Parker, Foster, and Ro-
binson; Cape Heaths, Messrs. Cole, Bruce, and Hump;
Azaleas, Messrs. Bruce and Cole; Tulips, Roses, Byhlo-
mens, and Bizarres, Messrs. Lane, Edwards, Wallan,
Venal)les, New hall, Noke, and Hook; Heartsease, Messrs.
Edwards, Lane, Scotcher, and Harris.
CLASS THE SECOND.—NIIRSERYMEN.—MisceIIaneous
Plants, Messrs. Pamplin and Son, and Pawley; Pelargo-
niums, Messrs. Beck and Gains; Cape Heaths, Messrs.
F~irl airs, Pamplin and Son, and Pawley; Azaleas,

Morely, and Wood.

EASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY.—Mr. Humphrey
Brown, M.P., has, through our columns of to-day, given
notice of his intention to move at the next meeting cer-
tain resolutions. The principal object is to perfect the
system of accounts, to ascertain the original cost and
present value of the rolling stock, and see the amount
of traffic belonging to the main line and that to tle
branches.

JENNY LIND.-FLIGHT OF THE NIGHTINGALE.-
After all the numerous and strange paragraphs which
have found their way into provincial and London news-
papers, the public will, perhaps, learn with some sur-
prise that our most e•dmired songstress and Swedish
Nightingale has left her residence at Brompton, and de-
parted for Paris, on her way to Stockholm. 11'o mar-
riage in England, we may venture to affirm, will take
place till she has had the advantage of consulting with
her family and friends. What may happen after that,
who can tell? Perhaps the paragraphists who knew
not only about tho special license, but the actual wed.
ding at Bath. We shall no doubt have plenty of specu-
lations on the present state of affairs from authorites
quite as well informed.—Literary Gazette.

STEAM COMMUNICATION BETWEEN Goo AND
ROTTERDAM.-A steamer is about to run weekly be-
tween Goole and Rotterdam, and Rotterdam and Goole.
She will leave Goule, on her first vo) age, to- morrow.
This is an experiment, to ascertain the advantage or
disadvantage of shipping goods from Goule, from the
West Riding and Lancashire, by the Lancashire and
Yorkshire line, in preference to the Bull and Serby, and
the other lines in connexion with it.—Hull Advertiser.

FRIGHTFUL EXPLOSION.—On Monday morning a
dreadful explosion of fire-damp occurred in a pit belong-
ing to James Foster, aq., at Shutt-end, Brierley-hill, by
which two men were instantaneously killed, and ten or
twelve others fearfully injured.—Ten Towns Messenger.
NATURAL GAS.—In Franklin, county Kentucky,
a vein of gas, highly it:flammable, was lately found by
some men boring tor water. After penetrating many
feet through a rock, the gas found its way in a large
volume to the surface, and when ignited burned bril-
liantly. The discoverers introduced it into their own
house, and think that the rocks will afford sufficient gas
for a whole ©4.
