LOVE OF FLowERs.--ln all countries women
love flowers; in all countries they form nosegays
of them but it is only in the bosom of plenty that
they conceive the idea of embelishing their dwell
lngs with them. The cultivation of flowers
among the peasantry indicates revolution in all
their feelings. 1t is delicate pleasure which
makes its way through coarse organs;t is Il crea-
ture whose eyes opened; it is the sense of the
beautiful,a faculty of the soul which is awakened;
colors, forms. odors are perceived for the first
Time and these charming objects have at length
spectators. Those who have travelled in the coun-
try can testify that rose-tree under the window
a honey sucllo around the door of cottage, is n
good omen to weary travler. The hand that
cuivates flowers is not closed againts the suppl
cations of the poor, nor against the wants of the
stranger. Flowers may be called the alphabet of
angles wherewith they write on hills and plains
mysterious trnths.-CGHddidn 4griculturniist
