Forcing Flowers in Winter.

1t will probably not be long before the ladies
Of our city, who have q taste for the curious
in nature will emulate those in England, ard
cultivate marine animals and plants in their
squaria. At present the taste runs moro in
the way Of forcing fowers-an art derived
tGom Paris. Any fancy or occupation leading
to more intimate acquaintance with nature q
beautiful and wonderful creations, is to be
cherished and practiced; and to the female
mind the employment OF tending flowers is
particularly cOngenial. An interest in the
subject may be awakened by tho simplest sort
of experiments. For instance, IL the bulbs of
hyacinths or tulips be placed IN glasses par
tally filled with water, in Move nber, or even
US late as December, their growth and deycl-
ment may be watched. Tne water mus, be
warm, and changed every morning to supply
the nourishment which the plants imbibe
through the little spongibles at the end of
their i hbrous roots, and the bulb glasses shouId
never bs quite filed with water so that space
may be allowed for air. They may be kept
on the mantelpiece until the flowers begin 10
expand, but as soon as they open they should
be placed in light TO obtain richness of color.
This charming art is now carried to great
perfection, Dy these willing TO give it time and
attention-and what person Of leisure and
taste would not be? Numerous varieties OF
the Chinese primrose, with its large double
Cheerful! looking flowers, have been made 10
grow in the 0IdTIng room, while SHOWS and
bitter blasts reigned without. The white lilac:
a favorite winte: flower in Paris, and the Dur.
pie clusters Of the same, with roses and wall
flowers, form bewitching bouquets, flourish.

while heaths and orange trees add richness To
the blooms by their verdure.
The belle now finds no difficulty in procu.

| shiue amid her raven braids, nor the pendant
rscemes OF the beautiful garrya eliptics. whose
delicate greenish flowers enhance the tendeI
bloom Of the check and many are the sweet.
scented blossoms mingled in her bouquet. II
is another refinement in luxury to cultivate
these plants in the psrlor or dining room.
Time was, long ago, when it was difficult to
| lind any floral decorations for windows or ia.

or the negilla, or the scarlet herries OF the as
parsgus, the holly, or the mountain ash, were
alone available Even within our Tecoilec.

RELICS OF PEuDAL DAYs.-The custom q,
uncovering the head and taking of the hst. or
even simply touching il, is q relic of the old
disarming-the removing Of the helmet to In
dicate that the party thus exposed himself 70
the mercy OF an enemy. To take of the glove
was In Ike manner to ungauntlet the hand,
the mere removal constituting an offer OF
friendship. EVen now IL 10 considered upciyiI
to shake hands with the glove on. Shaking
OF hands was formerly token Of truce, ip
which the parties took hold each OF the other Q
weapon hand, to make cure against treachsry
1t was also token of good will. A French
man, prisoner in England, once made q most
Ingenious use Of this custom. Having been
"put up" against q negro boxer, and know
ing nothing of boxing, be avsiled himself OF
the shaking Of hands before the encounter, TO
crush the negro's hand in his iron grip. 1t 10
said that few years since, brutal fellow In
Connecticut crushed a friends hand In like
manner, though be did il in sport.
The how, il is said, which Is reT mark or
politeness is but an offer Of the neck to the
stroke of the adversary, while the eourtsIy
pscuIiar TO the ladies' is the form Of going on
the knees 10 sue for that mercy, which, in
earlier ages was difficult to get. The hair
pins worn by ladies are reduced poignsrds. In
some parts Of Sicily they are still worn Of such
a size as to be convertible into weapons. The
ear rings were anciently badges Of slavery,
and were sOldored 50 that they could not be
removed from the ear. Their form indicated
the owner Of the slave.
