compact, or expanded. Where no remark is made as to the size of the 

 flower, it is of the ordinary or medium size. In the autumnal months 

 this and the seven succeeding classes present an accumulation of bloom, 

 which is the more grateful, as nature tlien seems the most to require 

 their cheering influence. In a mild climate they continue flowering 

 throughout the year. If potted and housed they will bloom during the 

 winter months, and form a most brilliant appendage to the parlor or 

 greenhouse. The new varieties obtained during the last few years are 

 more hardy than the older ones. Many of them are perfectly so, and 

 the most tender will withstand our winters with the simplest attention. 

 They can he bound in straw, and the earth raised around the base; or 

 a barrel or box can be placed over them ; or they can be cut off within 

 a few inches of the ground, and then be covered with ten or twelve 

 inches of common mould, sand, tan-bark, or leaves.
