FLOWER CULTURE.-The most delightful
and healthy employment for ladies', is ,e cul-
ture of flowers. The general superintendent
of garden is generally found favorable to
health, by leading to frequent exercise in the
open air, and that communing with nature
which is equally refreshing to the heart. The
tending of flowers has ever appeared fitting
care tor the young and beautiful. They then
dwell, as It were, among their own emblems,
and many a voice of wisdom breathes on the
ear from those sweet blossoms, TO which they
app0rtion the dew and the sunbeam.
