HORTICULTURE.

STOVE, CONSERVATORY, AND GREENHOUSE. The
weather, though bright, still continues cold for this
advanced season,. and much scotching has taken place in.
many houses,_ owing to the occasional and sudden change
of temperature.; the only way to prevent this evil is to
commence shading. It rs true that we have not had any
other necessity for so doing, but it will do no harm, and
may prevent the disfigurement of valuable plants.
FLOWER GAnDnN.—Prepare the beds for the bedding
plants, such as verbenas, scarlet pelargoniums, &c., by
digging in thoroughly rotted manure : the remains of
spent hotbeds will be valuable for this purpose. The
plants must not, however, be put out until the weather
entirely changes, and we should say this operation had
better be deferred at least until the beginning of June.
In the meantime, however, every encouragement should
be given to the plants by liquid manure and judicious
protection, to make as much growth as possible, previous
to their being turned out; indeed, as some time must
elapse before this can be done, another shift to larger
pots would be very desirable, and would much increase
their growth and strength.

KITCHEN GARDEN.—Prepare the trenches for celery
plants, the early crop of which should be got out as soon
as the weather becomes a little warmer. Continue to sow
lettuce, raddishes, and other useful kinds of sallading,

IMPROVEMENT IN NAVAL GUNNERY.—The following
extract from a letter received at Hull will be read with
interest.—" We have letters here from some of the pilots
every week. Hull has the honour of piloting both Sir
Charles's flag-ship and that of the French :admiral. I
know the men well, and we have important news from
them all along. The Duke of Wellington's guns are
splendid. One of the pilots has returned from ill health,
and he gave me a glowing description of her firing all her
guns broadside. They can be brought to bear so as to
strike a space no larger than a good door or window, and
they can direct the shots with so much precision that a
very small boat, placed a mile distant, was shattered to
pieces by the first shot. It is considered by nautical men
that a broadside from the flag-ship was equal to, and Would
do as much ciaulage Nelsoes fleet,"

'MID the heath's purple bells, on the lone mountain side,
The brown bee is loudly humming ;
In the tieep.wooded vale, where the clear waters glide,
The cuckoo tells summer is coming.
The wild flower's bloom
Flings round rich perfume;
Grove and glen are with melody ringing—
While the torrent is seen
Dashing down the ravine,
And the lark is "at Heaven's gate singing."

The notes of the song-birds thrill loudly in glee,
'Till the woodlands with joy ring around us ;
Sweet bloom is on meadow, and hedgerow, and tree,
Rejoicing that summer has found us.
Wild flow'rets rare,
Bees meeting there,
'Mid fresh sweets of the newly-cut hay;
Sunbeam chasing shadow
O'er mountain and meadow,
All nature seems joyful and gay.

Supplement to " Vacation Rambles :" Recollec-
tions of a Tour through France to Italy, and
homeward. By T. N. Talfourd. London :
Moxon. .

This supplement to the " Vacation Rambles " of
the late Sir Thomas Noon Talfourd, is a narrative
of the experiences. encountered by the learned
gentleman on the last holiday tour he enjoyed be-
fore he was elevated to the bench. It was pri-
vately printed a few months prior to his sudden
and lamented death, and has now been published,
in the usual sense of that expression. As its title
implies, the book is a mere transcript of the mental
impressions received by its gifted author in the
course of a brief excursion through a most interest-
ing section of the continent ; the subject being, no
doubt, open to the exception that the mptters.
treated of in it have been already frequently
described ; :yet even with this drawback, the
observations of the learned judge will secure for
his book the cordial approbation and warm sympa-
thy of the intelligent reader, while they will also
gratify the curiosity of even the most listless
inquirer. The narrative is so full of the geniality
of the man, that it seems more like the thinking
aloud of a cultivated mind, than any effort at book-
making. It is replete with that ovod-humoured
kindliness which in privation sees only a difficulty
to be overcome, in enjoyment only a pleasure to be
shared with others. In the disagreeables of con-
tinental travel, Talfourd saw nothing but matter for
quaint remark, and his observations are evidently
the reflex of a mind which, having unbent itself for
pleasure, persists in looking only on the sunny side of
men and circumstances. Carping or discontent find
no place in his narrative, and although he evinces an
acute perception of the ludicrous, as well as of the
beautiful, his pictures are invariably brimful of
happiness' and good nature. He invests even the
most hacknied and commonplace scenes with the
measured livelineSs peculiar to a cheerful disposi-
tion, and makes his reader the charmed companion
of his rambles. As a fair specimen of the treat-
ment bestowed on a somewhat worn-out subject,

GREECE.

Advices from Athens, of the 2nd May, announce that
General Mamouria has issued a proclamation, calling upon
all Greeks to rise in arms against Turkey. Armaments
are taking place at Syria for Thessaly. Piratical expedi-
tions are being organised.

Another letter From Athens says that the insurrection
in Epirus and Thessaly is completely put down.
A letter from Canea, in the island of Candia, of the 23rd,
mentions that a good deal of anxiety prevails in that
island on the subject of the Greek insurrection. There
are 3,000 or 4,000 Greek subjects residing there. Tran-
quillity is still maintained, but it is principally, if not en-
tirely, owing to the influence of England and France. If
it was imagined that these powers were really indifferent,
an explosion could scarce be avoided. It is said that Greek
or Russian emissaries were at work to persuade the in-
habitants that these two powers were in reality friendly
to the insurrection.

Russian agents are said to be' busily at work in the de-
partments, and to have in one or two of the large cities
put themselves in communication with the ultra-revolu-
tionary party. It has been thought necessary to address
a circular to the prefects, putting them on their guard,
and recommending them to watch strictly over the persons
who are supposed to be in the pay of Russia.
Penis, MAY 10.—It is stated in official quarters here,
that, not only the blockade, but the occupation of Greece,
is determined on. The corps d'arme'e to be sent, without
delay, for that object, will amount, I am informed, to
12,000 men. It is added, that the Emperor Napoleon has
addressed an autograph letter to King Otho, couched in
the strongest possible terms, and in fact commanding him
to desist from taking part with Russia in the war waged
by the powers to whom Greece owes her existence as a
nation, and to whom she is indebted for many favours
against that power, and that if Greece per,sist she will
have to bear the consequences of her conduct.

TIMBER.

LIVERPOOL.—There has been a steady demand for I
timber during the week, and fully average deliveries have I
been made by retaiL This more particularly applies to
Quebec pine, elm, and oak. Of the two latter articles
the whole stock is now reduced to less than 20,000 feet.
Of pine the stock is estimated as moderate, the consump-
tion of the last three months having risen to nearly
800,000 feet; while of Dantzic about one-half of the stock
held on the Ist of February has been cleared off the
market. From the United States parcels of pitch pine
continue to arrive, all of which are readily sold from the
quay at 2s 31-41 to :Is 7id, according to average and
quality. The demand for this article has been greater
\than for many years past, and that, too, in the face of
advancing prices. Of deals one cargo has arrived from
St. John, N.B. The consumption of this article during
the last three months has been on a large scale, and the
deliveries have exceeded 15,000 standard. The cargo now
landing is held by the importers to realise cost of import
and charges. •

AUSTRIA.

The Archduke Ferdinand Max is shortly to set out for
England. He is going there to return to Queen Victoria
in London the visit made by the Duke of Cambridge to
the Emperor of Austria in Vienna. It is probable that
the Archduke will make the journey not by land but by
sea, on board the Radetzki, of which ship he is to take the
command.

The Austrian government has opened a subscription at
Frankfort and at Amsterdam for three millions and a half
sterling. HANOVER.

A letter from Han Over, of the Bth, says :—" The
Assembly of the States has just adopted the bill relative
to the neutrality of Hanover in the Eastern war. It de-
clares that Hanoverian subjects cannot accept letters of
marque, or make any use of them. No privateer is to be
admitted into Hanoverian ports, except under stress of
weather." PRUSSIA.

A letter dated Paris, fhTuWa:;r: contains the following
passage :—" A great sensation was caused here to-day by
a rumour, said to rest on good authority, of the Prussian
Cabinet having resigned, in consequence of the Prince of
Prussia being deprived of his command, as Military Go-
vernor of the Rhine Provinces. This gallant prince, it
appears, gave offence by his visit to General de Bonin,
upon the latter's resignation of the Ministry of War.
General de Bonin was forced to resign, because of his
anti-Russian sentiments and his leanings towards the
Western Powers, while the Prince of Prussia made it-
evident to the army and the country by his visit that he
shared, as every one knew he did, the feelings of the
disgraced War Minister. The daring act of a slight like
this being put on the heir to the throne, speaks trumpet-
tongued for Frederick William's slavish subserviency to
the Czar, and exposes the treachery of his intentions. He
is not to be relied upon. Rash as he is weak, this act
may place him in a serious predicament. People- are
generally only too well disposed to look to the rising sun,
but how much strengthened must not this disposition
become when the king is against, and the prince with, the
sentiments of the whole nation. The Prince of Prussia
is at Baden. M. de Bismark Schonhausen, Prussian
Minister at the Germanic Diet, has been sent for."

MA Y.

'Mu) the heath's purple bells, on the lone mountain aide,
The brown bee is loudly bumming ;
In the deep-wooded vale, where the clear waters glide,
The cuckoo tells summer is coming.
The wild flower's bloom
Flings round rich perfume;
Grove and glen are with melody ringing—
While the torrent is seen
Dashing down the ravine,
And the lark is " at Heaven's gate singing."

The notes of the song-birds thrill loudly in glee,
'Till the woodlands with joy ring around us ;
Sweet bloom is on meadow, and hedgerow, and tree,
Rejoicing that summer has found us.
Wild flow'rets rare,
Bees meeting there,
'Mid fresh sweets of the newly-cut hay ;
Sunbeam chasing shadow
O'er mountain and meadow,
All nature seems joyful and gay.

THE WAR.

COPENHAGEN, MAT' 13.—The whole English fleet
is, under Gottska- Sando, in Gothland, waiting for the
French squadron.
Co-ssrelinNona, Mir 14.—The Turkish fleet, con-
sisting of twenty-two ships, has entered the Black Sea.
The Sultan has returned Prince'Napoleon's visit.

Tile Paris Moniteur, of Sunday, contains a long article
reproaching the Greek Government for its ingratitude,
and holding it responsible for recent events.
A. Trieste letter says, that the English and French
Ambassadors left Athens on the 3rd instant.

VI NA, MA.Y 13.—The Post says, the armies of Italy
and Galicia are placed on a war footing, and that move-
ments on the frontier indicate that Austria is preparing to
take an active part in the struggle.—The Daily News
says, Austria has addressed a new note to Russia, re-
questing her to evacuate - the Principalities, and pointing
out, it is alleged, an eventual casus belli.
The journal Invalid Rinse, of May sth, contains a de-
cree of the Emperor of Russia, addressed to General,
Osten-Sacken. It states-that on a religious anniversary
the English and French fleets bombarded the batteries
of Odessa and the habit.ttions of the peaceful citizens, as
well as the merchant shipping in the harbour, and con-
eludes as follows :

" But our brave troops, led by you in person, and pene-
trated by a profound faith in the supreme protector of
justice, gloriously repelled the attack of the enemy against
the soil which, in apostolic times, received the saintly pre-
cursor of the Christian religion in our holy country. The
heroic firmness and devotion of oar troops, inspired
by your example, have been crowned with complete suc-
cess. The city has been saved from destruction, and the
enemy's fleet has disappeared. As a worthy recompense
for so brilliant an action, we grant you the order of St.
Andrew. Nrcnonas.—St. Petersburg, May 3."
MADRID, MAY 9.—The government hee refused to com-
ply with the demand for satisfaction addressed to it by the
United States Minister in the affair of the Black Warrior,
but has promised to remit the fine of 6,000 dollars, which
the owner of that vessel has been sentenced to pay.

SWITZERLAND.

The forest on Mount Calnada, in the canton of the
(Irisons, has been almost entirely destroyed by fire. The
conflagration presented a magnificent spectacle, and was
seen at a considerable distance. Large trees, having been
burnt through near the roots, rolled down the mountain
with great violence. The damage done was very consi-
derable. The accident was, it is said, caused by the im-
prudence of a goatherd in lighting a fire. Nine hundred
inhabitants of the canton have departed for Bremen,
intending to embark for New York.

HORTICULTURE.

STOVE, GREENIIOI7SE, AND CONSERVATORY.—The tem-
perature of the plant stove should now be 70° to 80° by day,
and at least fi° less at night, and great care must be taken
in admitting air, as the cold winds which still prevail, if
admitted without due regard to the now tender vege-
tation, will prove highly injurious ; however, no opportu-
nity of safely ventilating the houses must be neglected,
and, for this purpose, choose the middle of the day, when
the sun is warm. Water regularly and thoroughly, ex-
cept in the case of newly potted plants, which do not
require so much water as those whose roots are filling the
pots. If the green fly has made its appearance, smoke the
houses thoroughly, for neither health nor beauty can exist
with that pest.
FLOWER GARDEN.—Annuals may still be sown, and a
second sowing will be required, as many of those already
sown early will have been killed by the cold dry weather.
Begin to harden off the rooted cuttings of dahlias; verbe-
nas, salvias, &c., by giving a little more air to the frames
containing them.
KITCHEN GARDEN.—The main crop of cauliflowers
may be planted out on sheltered borders. Sow carrots,
salsafy, scorzonera. Continue to plant potatoes. Cuttings
of sage and rosemary may now be struck, and the seeds
of thyme, savory, &c., should be sown.
