before its consummation, is surely worth something 
amongst the ills of humanity ; especially when all 
the accumulation of evil, that attends disappoint- 
ment, is but the occupant of a moment, and dies 
with the day that gave it existence. 
Chandler’s hybrid Fuchsia is a distinct and 
desirable variety, but probably requires a little 
more management than others ; this, however, con- 
sists chiefly in destroying its flowers. It is so 
abundant a blossomer, that, unless this disposition 
be somewhat thwarted, it cannot produce young 
shoots sufficient to increase its size, and to give the 
appearance of luxuriance. Hence, if no young 
wood be made, it will be desirable to pick off* 
all blossoms, till it begins to shoot freely, when 
it may be allowed to follow its natural inclination. 
Being of dwarf habit, an abundant bloomer, and its 
blossoms possessing great delicacy of tint, it is well 
suited for pot culture; therefore we introduce it 
more as a window than garden plant. 
As Fuchsias are propagated in great abundance 
by nurserymen, and sold at very moderate prices, the 
admirer of this plant will, doubtless, purchase it, 
in preference to waiting for the chance of otherwise 
obtaining it. Indeed, it is but justice to afford 
encouragement to the nurseryman, who caters for 
the gratification of his friends as well as himself. 
Placed in a window, during summer, it will 
req^uire but little care. Before winter arrives, 
we shall give further information on Fuchsias 
generally, and their management ; and hope to 
give some account of the numerous species and 
varieties now in cultivation.
