the forwarding of necessary work^ only a few remarks remain 

 to be added. If there is any part therein described omitted, 

 have it done forthwith : every day increases the danger of 

 severe weather. If there are doubts of any plants or shrubs 

 not standing without some light covering, it is best to err on 

 the side of safety. Valuable plants on walls, and in danger of 

 being destroyed, it is advisable to be at the expense of having 

 a frame made to surround them, and cover the same with 

 oil-cloth. The frame thus covered should be taken off in 

 mild weather, and replaced again when necessary, causing 

 very little trouble ; and, if properly taken care of, will last 

 many years. Coverings of any construction, and of the same 

 material, would answer for any part of the garden, and are 

 the best in our opinion that could be adopted.
