HORTICULTURE.

IN the conservatory there should now be a very brilliant
display of Came Has and New Holland Acacias, both of
which require considerable care in watering. Remember
that the soil should never be allowed to become dry, and
wetness should be quite as carefully avoided ; a general
dampness of all the soil contained in the pots is all that
is required. In the peach-house, where the young fruit
is now set, examine the trees carefully, and see that the
red spider is not commencing its ravages ; if so, fumigate
without delay, and nip the evil in the bud. Mildew, too,
may be feared : nothing will destroy this but the appli.
cation of sulphur, which is most effectual, applied as a
wash,—that is, mixed with water.

FLOWER GARDEN.—This department should now be
got into thorough order. Prune rose trees, and fork over
the beds, giving manure liberally to the roots of standard
and dwarf roses.

KITCHEN GARDEL—The active work of this depart-
ment has now fairly commenced, and, if not already done;
it is necessary without delay to get in the crops of early
potatoes, peas, parsnips, radishes and lettuce in frames,
longpod and Mazagan beans, spinach, early Horn carrot,
and turnip. Plant out a succession of early York cabbage.

I. THE SCREW-STEAMER SARAH SANDS.—An American
paper (The Portland, state of Maine,) of the 21st ult.,
gives the following particulars relative to this vessel :
'Die steam-ship Sarah Sands, Capt. Washington Ilsley,
from. Liverpool, on the 31st of January, was signalised at
the observatory at two o'clock yesterday afternoon, passed
the forts at half-past four o'clock, and came direct to her
wharf, enabling her passengers to land at six o'clock. Al-
though her news had been anticipated by telegraph from
the Canada at Halifax, she brings papers and lettere of a
later date than any yet received in Portland, the Canadian
mails not having yet arrived in our city. The steamer
Canada, which left Liverpool on the 4th, passed the Sarah
1 Sands on Wednesday, the 15th, off Cape Race, and pnt
into Halifax to deliver her mails. The Sarah Sands kept
on her course towards Portland, got ahead of the Canada,
which passed her again on Friday, and reached Boston at
twelve a.m. on Saturday. Capt. Ilsley and the officers of
the Sarah Sands have much OCCUSMiI so congratulate them-
selves on their good fortune and the good lack of their
vessel. She left Portland on the 26th of December, fairly.
dodging the severe storm which set in upon nt the nextday,
and has made a second voyage from Portland to Liverpool
and back in the short space of 55 days.

UNLIMITID LIABI mr.—Another illustration has been
furnished of the working of the law of unlimited liability...
On the 27th of January it was mentioned that Vice-
Chancellor Stuart had given an important judgment, to
the effect that a certain, shareholder in a concern called
the Sea Assurance Company was,not liable to be sned for
a fresh call, he having already paid the -amount of his
shares in full, while there were many shareholders who
had only paid part ; the deed of the company, moreover,
having stipulated that no one should be liable
beyond his
subscription. The affair at the time attracted considerable
attention, since not only the judgment itself, but the re-
marks by which it was accompanied, seemed to warrant
an impression that the Joint stock Companies Act afforded
more of the advantages of the system of limited partner'
ship than had hitherto been supposed. It now appears,
however, that an appeal was made to the Lord Chancellor,
and that a fresh judgment was delivered on Thursday,
reversing the former one. The course of the affair
hi has,
therefore, been, that the order was first made a master
in Chancery, that it was declared void by the VI aia I,:

2,450 tons register.
This magnificent ship, the largest end fastest in the world,
having made her first voyage from New York to Liverpool in
the nnprecedentedly short period of thirteen days, amidst the
terrific contrary gales which prevailed in January last, with-
out losing either a rope or spar, has just been purchased to
form one of the " White Star" Line of Australian Packets.
The RED JACKET was built by one of the most celebrated
builders in New York, especially for the passenger trade.
Her dimensions are, measurement length, 250 feet ; over all,
265 feet; beam, 45 feet; height between decks, 8 feet. This
large amount of space will allow of unusual comfort and
berthing room being provided for passengers. The best Cabin
and the Saloon on deck are unequalled in the accommodation
which they afford by any vessel which ever sailed in the trade
from this or any other country. Splendid accommodation is
provided for Second Cabin Passengers, but no Intermediate
or Steerage taken.—For further particulars apply to
