HORTICULTURE.

STOVE, CONSERVATORY ARD GREENUOllSE.—Tempera-
ture of stove 55' to 60' by day, and 50° to 55' at night.
On days when the heat of the sun is felt, a cautious ad-
mission of air is desirable at noon only. In watering the
plants the syringe must be dispensed with, and the water
applied only to the soil in the pots. If specimen plants
are under cultivation, and any free-growing sorts are be-
coming pot-bound, thereby rendering a repotting neces-
sary, take care that the soil used is the same temperature
as that of the house. The Orchid stove should have about
5° to 10° higher temperature than the general plant stove.
In the conservatory and greenhouse little more can be
done than attending to cleanliness and arrangement, two
matters of the highest importance. All the plants in
flower should be shifted from time to time, so as to pro-
duce variety by their change of position ; they are also
benefited by being moved about. It has to a slight extent
the same effect as ventilation, and it affords an oppor-
tunity of admitting the light to all sides of the plant.
The out-of-door department is still under the influence of
frost, which precludes any operations.

LAW OF MARINE INSURANCE.—AII important decision
by the Supreme Judicial Court, on the question of implied
warranty in the law of Marine Insurance, is published at
large in the Boston papers. The point decided is, that in
" time policies," for a term certain, there is no implied
warranty by the assured that the vessel is seaworthy, at
inspection or during the continuance of the risk ; so that
if a vessel, thus insured, is unseaworthy, in the ordinary
sense of that term, and while so insured is destroyed by
any peril insured against, as by fire, but not occasioned by
her unseaworthiness, still the policy attaches, is not ren-
dered void, and the underwriters are liable. But though
there be no implied warranty in such case, a breach of
which, if it existed, would render the policy void, yet it is
the duty of the assured to keep the vessel in a seaworthy
condition ; and if he fail to do so, and the vessel be lost in
consequence of such unseaworthiness, such a disregard of
obligation on the part of the assured will discharge the
underwriters. We are not aware that this question of
implied warranty in time policies had previously been de-
cided by any of the courts in this country. The same
point, quite recently, has been before the courts in Eng-
land, and there was some diversity of opinion among the
judges, though the law was finally settled as above-stated
to be in this commonwealth. If we are correctly informed,
the Court of Queen's Bench held that there was an im-
plied warranty in such policies ; but the judges in the
Exchequer Chamber, seven to two, reversed that decision,
and that reversal was sustained by the House of Lords,
where the ease was tam ou final appefil.—BOsten papork

THE PAST.

BY MRS. ACTON TIDAL.

It Passatv e possato, e per sempre !—AzELIo.

Tam Past is past! with many a hopeful morrow;
its errors and its good works live with God;
The agony is o'er of joy or sorrow;
The flowers lie dead along the path we trod.

The Past is past ! in solemn silence taking
Alike the sunny and the rainy day,
On the live altar of the fond heart breaking
Full many an idol built on feet of clay.

The Past is past! in certain still rotation,
Deadening and loosening, as it travelled by,
Each hope that bounds in glad anticipation,
Each vived passion and each tender tie !

The Past is pa‘t ! and our young selves departed
Upon the flashing whirl of those fleet years;
its lessons leave us sadder, stronger hearted,
More slow to love, Tess prodigal of tears.

The Past is past, and knowledge taught suspicion
To dim the spirit with its foul, cold sunshine;
For many a base and dark thing finds admission
Amid the wisdom learn; from life and time.

The Past is past I and in that twilight valley
Dwell slow repentance and the vain regret;
Fears for the future from those shadows sally,
And hang around the path before us yet.

The Past is past I and ah ! how few deplore it,
Or would re-lire their time bad they the power;
Though Nature, sometimes, weakly weepeth o'er it
At memory of some wrong, or happier hour.

The Past is past ! There's bitter joy in knowing
'Tis gone for ever ; dead, and buried deep,
It lies behind, and on life's stream is flowing,
Where the dark waters of the Dead Sea sleep.

The Past is past ! in faith and patience taking
Its lessons, let us !ay them on our hearts;
The chain's attenuated links are breaking;
Be earnest !—use the present ere it parts.

PRODUCE.—There has again been an extensive
demand for Sugar, and prices of all descriptions
may be quoted 6d. higher. For Foreign the de-
mand continues extremely active, at fully former
rates. The market for Coffee is quiet but firm.
A very extensive business has again been done in
Rice, both by the trade and speculators, and prices
generally are ls. higher. Of Tea, several parcels
of blackish leaf kinds, suitable to the wants of the
trade, have been sold out of the recent arrivals, at
full rates ; common descriptions have been quite
neglected. No new feature to notice in greens.
East India Articles have remained dull, and little
business done. Olive Oil has been much inquired
for, in most instances at higher rates. Pale Seal
Oil is in moderate demand. A considerable busi-
ness has been done in Linseed Oil. For Palm Oil
an increased speculative inquiry ; the sales are at
£42 108. to £44 10s. per ton. Tallow has been in
fair demand; Petersburg Y.C. at irregular prices,
ranging from 60s. to 635., and Taganrog at 595. to
625. per cwt. Small sales of Petersburg clean
Hemp are reported at £4l to £44 per ton ; £45 is

now required; higher prices have been paid for
Bombay. Jute continues in active request.
InoN.—During last week Scotch Pig Iron re-
ceded to 735. per ton, at which point heavy pur-
chases were made, and it closes this evening—
buyers at 765. 6d., with not much disposition on
the part of holders to sell in quantity at that rate.
WooL.—We have experienced a better feeling
in the market during the last few days ; but we can-
not yet report any very active business ; price very
firm without alteration ; the public sales which
commence this day have brought down a good
many buyers, and a brisk sale is looked for. Irish
hogs and wethers have met with a ready sale at
16d. and 151 d. per lb., delivered in Dublin. The
stocks of this kind is now small. English fleeces,
Lincoln, Leicester, and Kent are in good request,
at from 15id. to 160. per lb. The sales of East
India wool, held in London on Thursday and Fri-
day last were numerously attended, and the whole
was sold after a spirited competition at Id. to lid.
per lb. higher prices than the closing sales of last
year.

trade (considering political circumstances) in an enviable
condition, as compared with the manu'acture of many other
textile productions. The lace trade, according to some
favoured individuals, is reported to be in a wholesome state;
while others, who are not so fortunate as to hit upon a taking
style of pattern, complain of a want of demand. The general
fact is, there is a tolerably fair consumption of silk goods of
a tastefully lacey appearance; for instance, those persons
who produce designs after nature find a general sale for their
goods, whereas those who think that the beauty of a pattern
consists in figures, in which perpendicular and horizontal
lines form the principal features, are much mistaken, and
have to pay the penalty in lowness of price and great uncer.
tainty of the sale of articles of this description.

THE EASTERN WAR.

Further details of the battle of Citale are wanting, but
there is no doubt of the success of the Turks.
The Times' Paris correspondent says, " If it be correct
that the Turks have also advanced between the Schyl and
Aluta, near Karcaral, Omar Pasha must have made another
movement upwards, from some point between Kahora and
Meopolis, which, with the success near Kalafat, would
determine the retreat of the Russians, to avoid being
placed between two Sr- c•• driven northwards."

The Paris Moniteur announces officially the entry of
the combined fleets into the Black Sea on the 3rd of Jan.
The Emperor of Russia's answer to the propositions of
the Four Powers is not expected for a few days, and all
the reports now in circulation as to his decision are un.
worthy of credence.
The French naval and military preparations continue on
a most extensive scale.

of the DUKE'S, entered the house as a Shrewsbury far-
mer would the market-place, to see how his beans sold—
after he had had a pint of ale ; neither BERESTORD nor
HILL paid the slightest attention to military toilette, or
neatness of appearance—they were slovens in that regard.
Yet at Albuera, Vimiera, Corunna, Douro, Talavera, Bunco,
Vittoria, Pyrenees, Orthe's, Toulouse, and bloodier Water-
loo, they fought—perhaps on compulsion—in full dress ;
literally laden with gold and silver medals and orders of
merit. In the House of Peers, the deceased Marshal
BERESFORD spoke but two or three times for a quarter of
a century; Lord HILL not once—COMBERMERB very sel-
dom; ANGLESEY the same. BERESFORD seemed to be
afraid of so much. These great—brave soldiers—appeared
to be shy in addressing the house. Men who had made
the foes of England run away. BEHESPORD was a great
favourite in Lisbon, the female population especially liked
him much. There was sweet reciprocity.

HORTICULTURE.

STOVE, CONSERVATORY AND GRBENUOUSE.—Tempera-
ture of stove 55° to 60° by day, and UP to 55° at night.
On days when the heat of the sun is felt, a cautious ad-
mission of air is desirable at noon only. In watering the
plants the syringe must be dispensed with, and the water
applied only to the soil in the pots. If specimen plants
are under cultivation, and any free-growing sorts are be-
coming pot-bound, thereby rendering a repotting neces-
sary, take care that the soil used is the same temperature
as that of the house. The Orchid stove should have about
5° to 10° higher temperature than the general plant stove.
In the conservatory and greenhouse little more can be
done than attending to cleanliness and arrangement, two
matters of the highest importance. All the plants in
flower should be shifted from time to time, so as to pro-
duce variety by their change of position ; they are also
benefited by being moved about. It has to a slight extent
the same effect as ventilation, and it affords an oppor-
tunity of admitting the light to all sides of the plant.
The out-of-door department is still under the influence of
frost, which precludes any operations.

LAW Or MARINE INsunexcE.—An important decision
by the Supreme Judicial Court, on the question of implied
warranty in the law of Marine Insurance, is published at
large in the Boston papers. The point decided is, that in
"time policies," for a term certain, there is no implied
warranty by the assured that the vessel is seaworthy, at
inspection or during the continuance of the risk ; so that
if a vessel, thus insured, is unseaworthy, in the ordinary
sense of that term, and while so insured is destroyed by
any peril insured against, as by fire, but not occasioned by
her unseaworthiness, still the policy attaches, is not ren-
dered void, and the underwriters are liable. But though
there be no implied warranty in such case, a breach of
which, if it existed, would render the policy void, yet it is
the-duty of the assured to keep the vessel in a seaworthy
condition; and if he fail to do so, and the vessel be lost in
consequence of such unseaworthiness, such a disregard of
obligation on the part of the assured will discharge the
underwriters. We are not aware that this question of
implied warranty in time policies had previously been de-
cided by any of the courts in this country. The same
point, quite recently, has been before the courts in Eng-
, land, and there was some diversity of opinion among the
judges, though the law was finally settled as above-stated
to be in this commonwealth. If we are correctly informed,
the Court of Queen's Bench held that there was an im-
plied warranty in such policies ; but the judges in the
Exchequer Chamber, seven to two, reversed that decision,
and that reversal was sustained by the House of Lords,
where the case was tam on final appeal—Boston paper.

THE LIVERPOOL FREEMEN.

Ova contemporary, The Albion, has published a
lengthy document, purporting to be a Petition to the
House of Commons for the disfranchisement of the Free-
men of Liverpool. This is a draught on popular credulity.
No such measure could be entertained, except on the re-
commendation of a commission ; no such commission
could issue, except on the recommendation of both Houses
of Parliament ; no such recommendation could be given,
except on the report of an Election Committee ; no such
report could be made, except upon unseating both the
members ; and no such result could be arrived at to
gratify the longings of discontented Radicals. The dis-
franchisement of the Liverpool Freemen is a pure fiction,
with which certain individuals indulge their hearers on
occasions, as a kind of balm for the wounds of disappointed
hopes.

PEE STEAMSHIP CHARITY.

This magnificent iron screw steam-ship, which was
built by Mr. John Laird, of Birkenhead, for the African
Steam-ship Company, has been since purchased for the
Canada line of steamers, under the management of Messrs-
M`Rean, 3/Marty, and Co. During the winter, when the
navigation of the St. Lawrence is closed, she will run to
Portland, in connexion with the Grand Trunk Railway-
She is a really fine vessel, having, indeed, been found too
large for the African trade, where she has made one voyage
which was performed within a few days of the time fixed
by mail contract. She registers about 1,300
tons, and her
engines are nominally 300-horse power, but capable a
working to 450-horse power. She has excellent accommo-
dation for cabin passengers, and her steerse aceommoda.
tion is peculiarly light and commodious. Yesterday, the
enterprising owners entertained a Part board,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD.

Szn,—l was much interested by the discussion on Mon-
day, by the Literary and Philosophical Society, on the
able paper by Dr. Hume, on English dialects. The Chair-
man on that occasion offered some sensible remarks on the
new words which are being constantly imported into our
language, but none of the speakers alluded to some of the
most palpable deficiencies,—deficiencies so great, that the
only wonder is that no one has endeavoured to supply
them. It is a singular fact that there are two races of
animals in this country, and yet we have no word in the
language to express either of them. We speak of a horse,
meaning one of that race whether male or female, old or
young ; the same by a sheep, leaving the distinctions of
sex or age to be particularised by those more immediately
interested in the breeding or rearing them, but by what
name can we express one of that race of which we call the
male a bull or bullock, and the female a cow. It is true
that these names are intelligible, but they pre-suppose a
knowledge of the sex, and they are also applied to the
buffalo, the bison, and even the whale. Again with do-.
mestic poultry, we speak of a turkey, a goose, or a duck,
without reference to sex, but for the most numerous race
we are obliged to content ourselves with the indefinite ex-
pressions of a cock or a hen, terms which equally apply to
any kind of bird, and even the word fowl, applies, as it is
used in Scripture, to all kinds of birds. I have simply
pointed out these two instances of glaring deficiencies in
the English language, notwithstanding its general com-
prehensiveness, and I am sure there. are many of your in-
telligent readers, who could point to several other wants of
words which the ingenuity of modern writers might help
to supply. NE3IO.

TUB IMPROVEMENT BILL.

The clauses of this bill were then considered seriatim,
and all those, in which allusion to the proposed new street
occurred, were altered so as to secure its withdrawal from
the bill. SANITARY BILL.

On the Council proceeding to the:c,onsideration of this
bill, the Town-clerk read a memorial from a meeting of
houseowners, which had been held on Monday night, pray-
ing that further progress in connexion with the bill be
delayed to afford an opportunity to the memorialists more
fully to consider its provisions.

Mr. Moss, in supporting the prayer of the memorial,
expressed himself as favourable to sanitary improvements,
but as he did not think a fair opportunity had been af-
forded to the owners of property for fully considering its
bearings, he concluded by moving that the consideration
of the clauses be adjourned for a fortnight. •
A desultory and protracted discussion ensued, in which
several members of the Council took part ; and, in the
course of which, the Town-clerk explained that the pro-
posed delay would not necessarily bar the progress of the
bill. The preamble of the bill was then adopted, and
consideration of the clauses was adjourned for a fortnight.
