J WEEKS AND DAY, Architects, &c, Glou- 

 • cester Place, King's Road, Chelsea, HORTICULTURAL 

 BUILDERS, and Hot-water Apparatus Manufacturers, invite 

 the attention of Horticulturists to their Improved Plan of Bot- 

 tom-Heat, now becoming so universally adopted. 



From the extensive Practice they have been honoured with 

 for "0 vears in designing and building CONSERVATORIES, 

 GREENHOUSKS, HOTHOUSES, PITS, &c. &c, and erecting 

 their HOT-WATER APPARATUS to every description of 

 Buildings to which heat is applicable, J. Weeks and Day 

 have the greatest confidence in recommending their 

 BOILERS as the most efficient of any yet invented, their 

 largest being capable of heating a range of Forcing Houses 300 

 feet in length, with a comparatively small quantity of fuel, and 

 only requiring attention once in 10 hours. To be seen in use at 

 most of the London Nurseries, also at their Manufactory ; and a 

 variety of Horticultural Erections, Models, Plans, &c. &c.

From France we learn that on Sunday the King signed 

 a Royal ordinance, convoking the Chambers for the 2Gth 

 Dec, and that the Opposition Papers are already specu- 

 lating on the plans of the new campaign. The affairs of 

 Morocco and Tahiti are to be the chief points of attack, 

 and the Opposition are said to be preparing a new system 

 of tactics, the effect of which will be a coalition among 

 the different branches of their party. The strength of 

 the Guizot Cabinet in the last Session was derived in a 

 great measure from the division of its enemies ; and it is 

 expected that a better understanding among the leaders 

 of the Opposition will scarcely permit the Ministry to 

 survive the debate on the Address. The adjudication of 

 the forthcoming loan divides the attention of the Par 

 journals with the late proceedings of the Irish Repealers. 

 Mr. O'Connell's announcement that he has abandoned 

 Federalism and again adopted simple Repeal, affords a 

 fertile theme to politicians of all classes ; and their criti- 

 cisms are by no means complimentary to the consistency 

 of his principles. The Ministerial Papers contend that 

 there can be no medium between union and absolute 

 separation, and that Repeal on the plan laid do.n by 

 Mr. O'Connell in his " five points," is perfectly imprac- 

 ticable. The Opposition Papers, in censuring Mr. 

 O'Connell for shrinking from his position, insist that 

 Repeal would lead to civil war and the dismemberment 

 of the Empire, and for this reason are angry with him 

 for not hastening the crisis. They all, however, agree 

 that Mr. O'Connell's advances to ihe Protestants of 

 Ireland were altogether hopeless, and that his uncertainty 

 of action has tended to diminish those proofs of ad- 

 hesion to his cause, which were signified in the 

 expressive form of the Repeal jent.— In Spain an- 

 other insurrection has broken out under the formid- 

 able Zurbano, whose name as a guerilla chief is so 

 familiar to our readers. The rising is at present 

 confined to Old Castile, but Burgos, Saatahder and gt. 

 Sebastian are said to have joined the movement, and by 

 the last accounts it is rapidly extending Zurbano's 

 force consists mostly of old soldiers who served under 

 him during the worst scenes of the civil wars and know 

 him well. These men are formidable as much by their 

 character and pact exploits as by their numbers ; and the 

 difficult nature of the country, with every inch of which 

 Zurbano is familiar, may enable him to defy the troops 

 of the Government for months. The particulars of the 

 rebellion are not yet known, but it is said that the v. en- 

 word of the insurgents is "The Constitution of 1837, 

 and Isabella II." In the meantime, the Ministerial 

 measure for the reform of the Constitution, by expung- 

 ing the principle of national So^ ;nly and augm ing 

 the power of the Crown, is rapidly advancing. Nothing 

 can be more feeble than the opposition off red to the 

 measure, and the only speech which seems t> have pro- 

 duced a real impression on the Chamber was one which 

 advocated, not the maintenance of re; tentative Go- 

 vernment, but a return to the strict forms of absolu 

 monarchy. The general discussion on the Bill closed on 

 the 12th, and the preamble was voted on the nest d ly in 

 the terms proposed by Minis:er 5 . The prose* » of 

 Gen. Prim is said to be a subject of great embarrassment 



to the Government. The Council of War »et again on 

 the 14th, and granted his counsel but an h r and a half 

 to prepare his defence. It was rumoussj &■* fresh 

 charges of a serious nature had been brough^af ainst hi r, 

 and that his acquittal was very doubtful. 

 have further particulars of the disastrous noo kpj - rx r , .. u 

 desolated the fair city of Florence and laid wamra Y«ia 

 tile district of the Vai d'Arno. The loss of life and pro- 

 perty in Tuscany appears to have been immense, and the 

 accounts from Rome state that the inundation has been 

 scarcely less destructive In other parts of Italy. 



At home, the afT s of the Church are daily becoming 

 a topic of universal interest. la the diocese of Exeter, 

 a dispute between the curate of Helston and his congre- 

 gation respecting the introduction of certain forms in the 

 observance of 1>; vine Service, has led to an appeal to the 

 Bishop from a large body of the parishioners, who iden- 

 tified these forms with Puseyite or Tractarisn doctrines. 

 The Bishop, in an elabonte j t, pronounced the 



inno ions, with scarcely an « ion, to be in strict 



accordance with the Rubric, and his Lord-hip has since 

 taken measures for enfo lg their c rvance in all 

 parts of I diocese. In the see of London also, a simi- 

 lar collision has taken place, the l -regation of one of 

 the Tottenham churches having appealed to the Bishop 

 of London against the new forms introduced into Divine 

 Service by the clergy of their church. The Bishop 

 justifies the adoption of the forms on the ground that 

 they are in accordance with the Rubric, but has directed 

 their suspension for one year in the church in question, 

 in order to give the congregation further time to recon- 

 sider the propriety of conforming to his views. The 

 same hostility has been shown to these innovations in 

 other places, and it is evident that the laity generally 

 are strongly opposed to any change in the mode of per- 

 I forming the Church Service. 



m .ome Nctos. 



Court.— The Queen and Prince Albert, the Prince of 

 Wales, and the Princesses, are at Windsor Castle, and 

 are quite well. The Queen and Prince on Sunday 

 attended Divine Service in the private chapel of the 

 Palace, and during the week have taken their usual 

 watts and rides in the grounds of the Castle. Ine 

 Prince on Monday and Tuesday shot in the royal pre- 

 serves. On Wednesday the reigning Duke and Duchess 

 of Saxe-Coburg and Goths, and H.R.H. the Duke 

 Ernest of Wurtcraberg, arrived at the C le on a visit 

 to Her Majesty. Thursd being the birthday of the 

 Princess Royal, the band of the Horse Guards r-nyed a 



renade on the C tie Terrace. The Queen snd her 

 royal guests afterwarda visited the gardens at Frogmore, 

 and took an airing in pony csmsges. The Marchioness 

 of Douro has succeeded Lady Por' n as Lady m wait- 

 in- ; Lord R rs has succeeded the Earl of Morton as 

 Lord in waiting ; Mr. O Gore has succeeded Capt. 



Meynell as Groom in w ng on Her " ty ; and the 



Hon. Miss Hamilton and the Hon. Miss Stanley hare 

 succeeded the Hon. Misses Paget and Liddell as the 

 maids of honour in waiting on the Queen. 



Cabinet Council.— A C net Council was held on 

 Monday at the F. n Office. It sat 2 hours, and was 



attended by all the Ministers. 



parliamentary M ovements.— A rumour has been m 

 circulation for some time that Mr. Scott, M.P. for 

 Walsall, will resign his seat at the meeting of Parlia- 



nt, owing to i lispositiott. In such 

 [ieved that Mr. Forster will offer himself 



case, it is 



believed that Mr. Forster will offer himself as a candi- 

 date on the Conservative side, and Mr. Littleton, the son 

 of Lord Hathertoo, on that i he Opposition. 



FRANCE.-The Opposition Fc enounce that on 



Snndiv the Kin- signed an ordonnance convoking the 

 Cham for "he 20th December. The MonUcur and 

 M Iter al prints are silent on the subject ; but in the 

 cournns of their opponents there are ««»» "£'£»
