drainage is of no service: it is reported that the

were two large globular lights, nearly nine inches in
circumferentv—red and blue, to be alternately'
changed in colour, according to the signals wanted
and the state of the atmosphere. The Jig'''s, which
are in the form of a cone, may be viewed at a great
distance.

POTATOES.—The potatee possesses two modes of
securing its re-production, the one by prod wing to-
berons roots, the other by the general mode of flow-
ers and seed vessels. It has been ascertained by the
ingenious President of the Horticultural Society, that ,
the plant employs the same fluid in both these ope.
rations ; and by preventing the consumption of it in
either one of these, it will, be made to act more
strongly in the other. . Upon this 'principle, If a pc- • *
tatoe plaid is carefully deprived of its tubers as soon
as they are formed, it will be made infinitely more
productive of blossoms-and seeds. On the other I .
hand, if its blossoms are constantly picked off, and
it is prevented from forming any seed at all, all the
fluid which would have been employed in that opera-
tion will be exerted in forming an. increased crop of
tubers. It is true; that the'men who have to attend
to the manageinent of hundreds of acres, will hardly
condescend to think of potatee blossoms ; but there
are thousand ofrottagers, *hose scanty pittance may
* increased by the simple expedient of employing
tlOeir children in preventing their potatoe crop from
