Flowers OF the Old Gardens.

On many sides I see evidences that;
the old-fashioned flowers are coming,
into fresh favor. A bright lady writer
gives 1t as her experience and observa-'
ton that there is a decided restoration.
of the flowers of our great grandmoth-;
ers' gardens, such as the peonies, pop.
pies, hollyhocks, sweet williams, Glove
pinks, yellow lilies, columbines, blue.
bells, fieur de lis, monks hood, phlox.
es, lyohnis, sweet sultan, and the like.
They are not only for the most part
beautiful in color sSd form, but great
advantage of their" cultivation is that
when once planted they will delight
the senses for years, If n little atten-
ton Is only given to them in the spring
by digging about the roots and apply
ing plentiful supply of rich compost.
and dividing their roots in the autumn
il too crowded. They bloom at a sea-
son when flowers are most welcome.
Who that has been familiar with a
garden of a generation ago will not
recognize this picture: ITO make an
old-fashioned garden there should DO
beds of Easter lilies, mingled with
clumps of spider lilies and borders of
sweet williams and columbines of every
hue, intermixed with such ANIMALS as
mignonette and sweet alyssum, edged
with blue-bells or baby's breath.
Long beds are made of tulips Of all
colors, single and double, and clusters
of peonies, phloxes, Glove pinks, pop
pies, and garden pinks, with a back
ground of hollyhocks and monks
hood. The martagon lilies, Easter ILL
les, yellow lilies, and the iris, with its
pure crimson bells, succeeded the tu-
lips, and then the June roses, which in
these days of rose-gardens would not
be thought very beautiful. but at that
time were glory. Fifty kinds OF gar
den roses were planted there, besides
climbers, and bush roses, and various
kinds of monthly tea and banksia,
whose clusters of buff flowers were ex-
quisitely beautiful. Of course, these
delicate roses were housed in the eel
lar during the winter, but they added
great beauty to the old garden in the
summer. Campanulas, fox-gloves,
pyrethrums, and larkspurs also grew
in abundance, and cut flowers always
filed vases and dishes in the sitting
room and parlor. The blood-red, dark
crimson, and dwarf golden yellow sorts
are very effective in mixed borders.
Sweet williams have been greatly i'm
proved, and produce flowers OF large
size and richness of coloring. Ian

CHINA ANXIOUS FOR PEACE.
WHAT SHE Is WILLING TO CONCEDE.

THE ATTITUDE OF FRANCE-THE OCCUPATION OF
sONTAY AND BAC-NINH.
LONDON, Dec 31.-The Times says it has the best
authority for stating that China wants peace, and
that if France will return to her original policy In
Tonqun and abstain from further hostile action on
the Red River, pacific agreement ls almost cer-
tain China will abate some of her first pretensiOns
if France will show a concilatory spirit The Times
further says that the Government of China, seeing
that the countries we'll disposed toward her are de-
sirous of settlement of the question whether
Tonquin is a Chinese dependency is ready to
recognize accomplished facts and to negotiate upon
the basis OF the status qO But the establishment of
this position involves the assertion of further naval
and military movements beyond merely defensive
ones, and above all, an understanding that Bac-
Mini must not be assailed
So much China is prepared to cOncede. If France
responds to her well-mean concessions she will not
stop to consider how far her present attitude may
tally with her original position, when she insisted
upon the full letter of her rights. The northern
bank of the main nayigablc branch of the Red
River represents the ne plus ultra of Chinese con-
cession China believes that she secure her
rights as efcctually with Quang-Yen, Bac-Ninh and
Lao-Kai in her possession, as Trance with Hal
Phong Haid-Zuong and Hanoi The question of
the permanent retention of SOntay should be sub
nit eu 70 the arbitration of a third party.
IHp also says: lie rejection DY Ine
French of these offers must result in the triumph of
the autI-fOreign party in Pekn. The desire of China
for peace being sincere, the Powers interested
should offer their mediation collectively. II there
is any hesitation from any quarter this point, the
right of the initiative rests in a high degree with
the United States. which Government Is bound by
the terms of the Burngame treaty to offer her goOd
offices whenever China requests them. Should
Prime Minister Ferry Of France respond to the
wishes of the Chinese Embassy, the present occa-
sion will afford an opportunity OF giving effect 10
