LILIUM. 
The lily has long been celebrated for its beauty , and cannot be too 
Btronffly recommended for general culture. The bulbs are hardy, 
and the flowers form a beautiful ornament for tlie open ground the 
conservatory , and the greenhouse. Any good garden soil, m'ixed 
with a little sand, will answer for their culture, lu pots, use garden 
BOil, leaf-mould, and sand, witli the pots well drained. We have 
tound a bed of L. Auratura greatly beneHted the past Winter by a 
covering of manure or litter, laying boards over it so as to throw 
the water from the bed.
