THE LOVE OF FLOWERS.

The love of flowers seems naturally implanted passion, without any alloy or de- passing object as motive: the cottage has its pink, its rose, its polyanthns the villa its geranium, its dalila, and its clemantis i; we cherish them in youth, we admire them in declining days; but perhaps, it is the early flowers of spring that always bring with them the greatest degree of pleasure, and our affections seem immediately to ex- pand at the sight of the first opening blos- som under the sunny wall or sheltered bank, however humble its race may be- In the long and sombre months of winter our love ofnature, like the buds of vegeta- ton, seems closed and torpid but, like them, it unfolds and reanimates with the O. pcning year, and we welcome our long-lost associates with cordiality that no other season can excite, as friends in a foreign cline. The violet of autumn is greeted with none of the love with which we hail the violet of spring: it is unreasonable 1; perhaps it brings with it rather thought of melancholy than of joy; we view it with curiosity, not affection and thus the late IS not like the early rose. 1t is not in- trinsic beauty or splendor that so charms us; for the fair maids of spring cannot compete with the grander matrons of the advanced year they would be unheeded, perhaps lost, in the rosy bowers of summer and of autumn no: it is our first meet ing with a long lost friend, the reviving glow of a natural affection, that SO warns us at this season. To maturity they give pleasure, as harbiuger of the renewal of life, signal of awakening nature, or of a higher promise to youth, they are expan- ding being, opening years, hilaFity and joy; and the child let loose from the house, riots in the AowoFy meads and is-

A writer in the Richmond Enquirer, with the signature Agricultor, says" now, from a small spot ofpoor ground, raise the greatest profnsion of melons, whereas, un- til lately, could not raise enough on four or five times the same space of rich land. I dig square holes ten feet apart, each way, for watermelons, and about six feet for muskmelons for the first, two feet deep, for the last, eighteen inches deep, and eighteen inches wide. The roots run but short distance in horizontal dlrec- ton, but striking deep into the earth, they are secure from the effects of drought 1; and by filling the holes full of manure, & by furnishing them to few inches above the surface with mixture of manure and soil, or which is better, a composition of vegetables, and other substances, common. ly to be met with around out houses and pig pens, depth of soil, of fine and light filth is formed.

'SQUAsHEs AND MELONS.


 MR. EDTToR-Squashes, melons, and all other vines require good old manure i; nothing suits them better than vault ma nure, kept one year after it is taken out hogs manure is excellent. There should be, for squashes, five or six shovelfuls to each hill, distance about six feet; as the vines expand it will be very useful to check their growth for the benefit of the fruit It is generally placed on the side shoots, and only one squash should be permitted to grow on one side shoot, and as soop as the blossoming is over, the shoot should be stopped, by pinchiDg off the head of il. The main vines should be stopped after they have asufiicient number of side shoots and squashes. This kind of pruning will have a tendency to improve the size and quality of the fruit !; it is advisable to take offlate blossoms and small squashes which would not come to maturity before the white frosts take place, and which would injure the earlier and better fruit, by de- priving it of some of the nourishment.- When the latter part of the season comes on, aud the squashes have nearly comple- ted their growth,it is advisable to break off the leaves wherever they shade the fruit, in order that it should have the uninterrup- ted benefit of the sun, and to cut off freely the struggling vines, so that none should be left but those that bear fruit; this will hasten their maturity and perfection. The same system of pruning is still more need- full for musk melons; it will improve the flavor and the size of the fruit, and is, be- lieve, universally practised in the old coun- tries. The French always pinch oG the small top of the heart, at the earliest pcri- od, which they call chatrer, and which en- courages the growth of the slender side shoots, which are the fruit bearers. The ripening of melons is much hastened by placing under them, when about the size of an egg, large pieces of slate, stone or a shingle the melons are also kept from ground worms by this process. Although our soil and climate arc more powerful and forcing, and might dispense in some measure with these refnements of the gardeners art, yet they win repay we'll for the little time and attention required, and I have always found it my pleasure, and advantage, to attend to it regularly.
