On Sowing some American Seeds, &c— I take this opportunity of an- 

 swering the Query of S. Wood, " On some American seeds," in your March 

 Number. The spring is the best time for sowing these seeds, when a hotbed 

 can easily be procured for forcing them, although it was always my practice 

 whenever I received foreign seeds, to pot them immediately and put them 

 in the greenhouse. I consider that seeds are more likely to retain life in 

 this way than when left above grouud, more particularly small seeds, which 

 it is most difficult to keep ; and where seeds lie long before starting, when 

 put into a hotbed the next spring, many of them will come away very 

 quickly. The soil I would recommend for planting these American plants 

 in, is a light mould, mixed with one-quarter leaf-mould, and some white or 

 grey sand; and if a little peat-earth can be obtained, so much the better. If 

 the seeds do not come up the first season, the pots must not be emptied, but 

 be allowed to stand in the greenhouse or open air, and be replaced in a hot- 

 bed the following spring. When the seedlings are potted out, attention will 

 be paid to the soils peculiar to each genus or species, as to which Loudon's 

 Catalogue or Encyclopedia of Gardening, or Cishing's Exotic Gardener, 

 may be consulted. Jesensis.
