Obs. St. Vincent of Paul was a native of Poni ; from his infancy 

 he shewed a seriousness and aflection for holy prayer far beyond his 

 age. At Toulouse in 1598 he was promoted to the holy orders of 

 subdeacon and deacon, and of priesthood in 16U0, St. Vincent was 

 tried by severe crosses, but by his resignation he en oyed a sweet 

 repose in his own heart under all accidents. St. Vincent founded 

 several confiaternities. He procured and directed the foundation of 

 several great hospitals as in Paris, that of foundlings, or those chil- 

 dren who for want of such provision are exposed to the utmost dis- 

 tress, or to the baibarity of unnatural parents. He was also a most 

 zealouspreaclier of the gospel. Having- received the last sacraments 

 he calmly expired on his chair on the 27th of September, 16(j0, being- 

 fourscore and five years old.

The above and numerous other syngenecious plants come into 

 blow at this time, and continue for a i^horter or longer time; many 

 of them flowering all the rest of the summer and early autumn. 



Dahlias now begin to flower : they make a splendid fijiure through 

 August and September. But their presence in gardens is a modern 

 feature, being of late introduction : innumerable varieties of them 

 have been raised, and fresh ones are yearly added to the catalogue.
