VARIETIES, LITERARY AND MISCELLANEOUS. 



Effects of Water on Flowers. — It is well 

 T<novvn and painfully felt by the lovers of 

 flowers, that they begin to fade after having 

 been kept twenty-four hours in water : 

 some few may retain their original beauty 

 longer, by frequently substituting fresh wa- 

 ter ; but all the most furegaceous (such as 

 the poppy and one or two otiiers excepted) 

 may be completely restored by the use of 

 hot water. For this purpose, place the 

 flowers in scalding water, deep enough to 

 cover about one-third of the length of the 

 stem, and by the time the water is become 

 cold, the flowers will have become erect and 

 fresh ; then cut the ends and put them into 

 cold water. 



Silk Worm in Prussia. — Signer Boizani, 

 an Itai'iaii at Berlin, has undertaken to re- 

 vive th.e culture of silk-worms in Prussia, 

 where it has been abandoned since the reign 

 of Frederick the Second. The king has pro- 

 vided him with some rooms in the Hotel 

 des Invalides, and he has been permitted, for 

 a. small consideration, the use of the mul- 

 berry trees in the garden of that establish- 

 ment. Signor Boizani has piocured winders 

 from India, and has great reason to be sa- 

 tisfied with this year's result. 



In the excavations lately made in the 

 differents parts of London, several memo- 

 oials of ancient days have been found- A few 



days ago, as some workmen were digging 

 near the foundation of the new Trinity 

 Church, they discovered a Roman vase of a 

 very peculiar form. Shortly afterwards the 

 pick-axe struck against a vase, which could 

 not be accurately ascertained, as it was un- 

 fortunately dashed to pieces ; but it was 

 judged tliat it was about four feet in height. 

 The first specimen has been added to the 

 collection of Mr. Gwilt, the architect and 

 antiquary, who has formed a small mu- 

 seum of the various Roman antiquities 

 which have been recently discovered in the 

 Borougli of Southwark, by the labourers 

 employed in digging the sewers near his 

 own house in Union-street, in which many 

 Roman vessels were found. Among them 

 was a vessel bearing some resemblance to a 

 gallon stoiie bottle ; the aperture is perfo- 

 rated with small holes, and it is evidently 

 adapted as a sort of watering-pot. It is 

 conjectured that the utensil is the Roman 

 situlus. A Samian cup, and several speci- 

 mens of Samian ware, were found near the 

 same spot. 



Libraries in Germany. — The German li. 

 braries surpass in number and richness, 

 those of any other country of Europe. The 

 library of Vienna contains 30,000 volumes ; 

 that of Dresden 220,000 ; that of Munich 

 4*1,000; that of Breslau 160,000 : that of
