OPERATIONS FOR THE WEEK

Stove, Greenhouse, Conservatory, B,.c.—The present
season has unfortunately been very prolific in those pests
which give so much trouble to the practical gardener—
green-fly, red-spider, mealy-bug, thrips, and a legion of
other insect enemies, which swarm over the plants and
destroy their beauty, and even, when neglected, the
plants themselves. Fumigation with tobacco paper or
tobacco, if done thoroughly, will effectually settle the
green-fly and the red-spider; most of these plagues, how-
ever, can be removed by putting about four ounces of
weak liquid ammonia into a gallon of rain-water, and ap-
plying it to the infested plants : this neither injures the
plants, nor Goes it impregnate the house with the disagree-
able smell of tobacco. Climbing plants, both in the
stove and conservatory, require constant attention at this
season, otherwise they speedily get into confusion. The
strong shoots should be tied in as they progress, and it is
advisable to remove those which are weak or awkwardly
placed.

Flower Garden.—The heavy rains will have prostrated
all large plants not previously tied up, and taught the ne-
cessity of performing this operation in time; the surface
of the soil is also much beaten down by the rain, and will
be benefited by slightly stirring with the rake. In par-
terres, where the plants are rather crowded, and there is
a consequent difficulty in weeding, Gidney's improved
Prussian hoe will be found of very great service : it is an
excellent implement for the flower-garden, and well
fitted for amateurs from its extreme lightness. The roses
are much infested with the maggot ; nothing but a pa-
tient hand-picking will remove this pest.
Kitchen Garden.—lf the seedlings of the various cab-
bages, kales, brocolies, &c., are sufficiently forward, prick
them out immediately, in order that strong plants may be
ready as soon as wanted.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.

James Pell, Aigburth.—There is no book upon ferns so
well calculated for amateur collectors as the Popular His-
tory of British Ferns, published by Reeve and Benham, of
London. Moore's Hand-Book is an excellent work ; but
the plates in the former are all coloured true to nature,
and the descriptive part is very plainly written : they are
both by the same author.
Edmund.—Your pansie is curious, and the variety
might perhaps be made permanent, but is hardly worth
the trouble of propagating.

F. Dickson.—ln answer to your question respecting the
hardiness of Wiegela rosea, we can speak with confidence,
for it has stood several winters in the beautiful nursery
grounds of Messrs. Henderson and Brown, of Oxton, where
dozens of large bushes of it are now perfectly covered
with its very elegant pink blossoms, which are deeper
coloured in the open air. We are sure the proprietors
would shew you them with pleasure, and give you a full
history of their cultivation.

R. Healey.—Summer pruning renders currant bushes
amazingly prolific, but renders them also short-Fved.

; -
Suttoman.—We regret we are not able to tell you the
precise date of the Eastham Flower Show; but we have
a note from the Committee stating that it will not be later
than the third weak in August : this will answer your
purpose for dahlias.
A Standard Reader.—Your Fuchsia is the well-known
Exoniensis—an old variety, but at present, in our opi-
nion, an unrivalled one.

AN EXTRAORDINARY BILL OF COSTS.—In the Court
of Queen's Bench, at Westminster, on Monday, there
was an argument about a wonderful bill of costs. Mr.
Parker, the carrier. sued the Great Western Railway for
surcharges on parcels during four years, and he was suc-
cessful. The notice of the particulars in the action
referred to twenty one thousand distinct carrying transac-
tions; it was written on forty-one folio volumes, of which
the twenty-first part was exhibited to the Court, and was
charged in the bill of costs at £1,300: it had taken an
attorney and nine clerks three years (6,666 hours) to pre-
pare it. Other items were somewhat in proportion to
this, but not quite so amazing. The master had disal-
lowed the charge of £1,300, and allowed only £3OO-100
for the draught, £175 for one copy, and £25 for paper,
and the plaintiff now sought to get a better allowance.
The judges of the Court were all extremely excited at the
affair ; they thought the Master had allowed too much—
the proving of these matters need not have cost more than
£2O; and they refused to help the plaintiff. On Thurs-
day the Court of Common Pleas granted the Railway
Company a rule nisi, on the ground that the £3OO was an
extravagant sum.
RAILWAY COLLISION AND Loss OF LIFE.—An alarm-
ing accident, attended with the loss of two lives, occurred
on the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire line, on
Tuesday afternoon, near to the Woodhouse Junction. It
appeared that about two o'clock, a ballast train, laden
with sleepers, left Grimsby for Sheffield, a passenger car-
riage, containing seven or eight men in the company's
service, being attached to the last waggon. Nothing oc-
curred until they arrived at the Kiverton-park Station,
when, in consequence of the piston-rod breaking, the
engine became disabled. Efforts were then immediately
made to bring the trains to a stand, but in consequence of

the line at this point being on a steep incline this was not
accomplished until some time had elapsed. The moment
this was done, all the men except two left the '—
carriage, and a messenger was despatched to sir
proaching luggage train, which was then due
ford. Before he had proceeded more than
he came in sight of the train, the driver of whim,
as he became aware of the danger, instantly -

THE PASSAGE OF THE. OVERLAND MAIL THROUGH
EGYPT.—The Egyptian Government has just concluded a
new treaty with England, for the transit of despatches•
From the Ist of July next, the English post-office will
deliver to the Egyptian Government at Alexandria the
despatches from Great Britain and other countries for
India, by which they will be =tied to Suez at their risk
and peril, instead of, as before, by English agents. The
despatches from Suez to Alexandria will be carried in the
same manner.—Globe.

INCARCERATION OF MR. FEARGUS O'CONNOR.--It
was with considerable difficulty, after being committed to
the custody of the Serjeant-at-Arms. that Captain
Gossett could succeed in conveying Mr. O'Connor to his
destination in the parliamentary lock-up, and this diffi-
culty was not a little increased from the circumstance of
the well-known sinuous nature of the route that leads to
the legislative limbo. The honourable gentleman at first
altogether declined the escort of two of the A division,
but on being persuaded that the route was only another way
into the house, the officers succeeded in getting him up
stairs. Here he was introduced into two comfortable
rooms, a sitting and a bed-room. A relay of police-
serjeants and messengers of the House of Commons are
in constant attendance upon him in the ante-chamber;
and Mr. O'Connor, who is remarkably communicative
with them, entertains them with a narration of his career
in
in the House of Commons, and of his travels Ireland
and America. His other diversions consist in songs,
some of them not of the most unexceptionable sort. He
shows no symptoms of violence, but has an unquenched
craving for brandy. Soon after being placed in confine-
ment he was searched, and a roll of bank notes were found
in the interior breast pocket of his vest, and on the officer
taking them for security, he is reported to have said ab-
ruptly, "Do not take those, I shall not cut anybody's
throat with them." During Thursday, he wrote a letter
to the Speaker, to inquire the cause of his confinement,
and requesting liberation. This letter was delivered by
Mr. Jacob Bell, who manifests much interest in him, but
received no answer. He wrote another, which was con
veyed to the Speaker by Captain G
