The forests, which surround Homburg like a rich Zone, are pierced
with rides and drives in- which the residents at the Bathe may, with
case. and pleasure, visit the Feldberg, the Fotek of Elizabeth, Luther's
Oaks, and all the picturesque sites of the Taunus.
Vie Directors of this grand Establishment have constructed a mag.
niacent Casino, which—by the beauty of its architecture, the excel-
lenee of its distribution, and the richness of its decorations—surpasses
any building hitherto erected at any point on the backs of the
Rhine. It contains splendid saloons for balls and concerts ; reoms
for the games of Trente et Quarante, and for Roulette tables
Cabinet for reading, in which are most of the Gentle!), French,
English, Russian, Belgian, and Dutch journals; a Caffee-roont ; a
Divan for smoking, opening on to a fine terrace laid with asphalte, and
a grand dining-room with a table-d'hOte, served a la Francaise, twice,
a-day, viz. at one and five o'clock.
The excellent orchestra from the Theatre of Mentz performs three
times a day; in the morning, at the Springs ; in the afternoon, in
the beautiful Gardens of the Casino ; and in the evening in the
grand Ball-room,
concerts, Balls, and Fetes of every description succeed each ofUer
without interruption.
The Directors shrink from no sacrifice to render this watering-
place as delightful as possible to its visitors, and 10 this end have
rented about.so,ooo acres of forest-lands and plains, all abounding in game of every description, at well a reserve Park for the Grandees Chasses at the chise of the winter season. The Casino of Homburg,
is the only establishment of the kind that has enjoyed hitherto the
privilege of remaining open all the year, and the sontinuation of its
tables f6r play, its balls, its concerts, and its hunting parties through-
out the winter-season, makes it attract a nltMerous and select so-
ciety from every quarter of Europe.
The Journey from London to Homburg, passing through Cologne,
Mentz and Frankfort, is performed in 44 hours. The distance Irate
Frankfort to Homburg is got over in one hour and a half. Mat
coaches and omnibuses run between these places every hour.

linYA I', BOTANIC SOCIETY, nr.GENT'S PARK.-
The last dower show given during the season by this Society took
place on Wednesday. The rain deizzled down abundantly enough,
though not sufficiently to prove the old adage that "it never rains
but it pours." The exhibition was, however, well attended, and,
owing to the judicious arrangement for- entering anti passing
through the tents, the company met and separated without the
slightest cause for complaint. The band of the Royal Horse Guards.
(Blue), and the lst and the 2d Life Guards, played some favourite
airs during the exhibition. One novelty on this occasion was the
competition for the prizes of fruits. The show of grapes, melons,
pines, &c., attracted general attention ; and the stove and green-
houseplants, the orchidaceous plants, and the roses, both cut and
In pots, were as usual extremely fine ; the collections of the cut
roses being beautiful, and more than ordinarily numerous. The
principal exhibitors were Lady Antrobus, Miss Trail!, Mrs. Law-
rence, Mr. Rucker, Mr. Norman,, and Mr. Cook. Among the
nurserymen, Messrs. Luccombe and Co., and Messrs. Price, of
Exeter, and others. Before the admission of the public, the Queen
and her illustrious guests the King and Queen of the Belgians, the
Duchess of Gloucester, and the Duke of Cambridge, arrived in
view the flowers and grounds, at which time the weather Was for-
tunately very propitious.
APPALLING MURDER TN GALASIIIELS.--A. murder
was committed here on the evening of Thursday week, under most
distressing circumstances. The deed was committed on Mrs. Lees,
an old Wagtail of eighty...two years of age, by her daughter, Euphe.
mia Lees, who for a number of years had been residing with her,
and at no former period had she ever exhibited the least severity
or harshness towards her aged parent, but had always been esteemed
for her kindness and devotion to her mother's wants. From inqui.

tragic event leaves not a doubt but that she was insane at
the time she committed the deed. From what she admitted
—anti the post morteni examination of the body confirms
the statement—she pounced on her mother while the latter
was in bed, and thrust her hand into her mouth and throat,

steeped in blood, a blood vessel having been ruptured in the death
struggle ; and in the bed sat the insane murderer, with her hands
and. arms reeking with b!o,d, singing at the top of her voice.
" Highland Laddie." On being asked what induced her to kilt
her mother, she answered, " I have killed the devil ; had I not
done so I would have been in hell tomorrow"—words which at
once indicate her insanity. Early on Friday morning the autheritt
ties were on the spot taking pree.ognitions, and inquiring into the
circumstances connected with the melancholy occurrence. Hitherto
the woman has borne an irreproachable character, and her attention
to her mother was exemplary. She has been committed to prison.
