WISEE LAYS.  KENDAL Depart 0 xenholme Sandeide . 91 rn side GRANGE A rri.e  The peep at this show led me to the gardens, where I found everyeling of the roughest description, but bearing sins of careful, tender culture. The men spoke lovingly of their plants, ant their wives and children hovered in the rear, occasion illy throwing in a comflrmitory remark when any particular flower received a little extra praise. I glanced at the homes of these men, and found them all neat and clean. I inquired into their halite, and was told that they were all temperance nen. If you cannot get a large piece of ground, get a small one, and failing that, get a few flower pots and garnish your windows with them. You may not care much for it at first; but the love of flowers grows upon one, and bainzs with it other wholesome emotimas which cannot fail to better and purity your lives. Many a brrin-worn man has been saved form an asylum by a plot of ground, and many a dark nom where miseny dwelt has been brightened by a simple flower. With more gaidnas we should have fewer beerhnuses. Brethren, look to it.
