A rink’; but, if the houfe be kept in a moderate degree of 
warmth, they Ihould have but little, for moiflure at that 
feafon will rot them very foon. The heat in which thefe 
plants thrive belt, is the temperate point, as marked on 
botanical thermometers; for, if they are kept too warm in 
winter, it caufes their fhoots to be very tender, weak, and 
unfightly. Thole forts which are inclinable to grow up¬ 
right, Ihould have their branches fupported with (takes, 
otherwife their weight is fo great, that it will break them 
down. Thefe plants are by mod people expofed to the 
open air in the Cummer feafon, but they thrive much bet¬ 
ter if they are continued in the doves, provided the glades 
be kept open, fo that they may have free air ; for, when 
they are fet abroad, the great rains which generally fall 
in Cummer, together with the unfettled temperature of 
the air in our climate, greatly diminifh their beauty, by 
retarding their growth ; and fometimes, in wet Cummers, 
they are Co replete With moidure, as to rot in the fucceeding 
winter: nor will thofe plants which are Cet abroad (we 
mean the tender forts) produce their flowers and fruit in 
fuc.h plenty as thofe conftantly preferved in the houfe. 
The perefkia, or Barbadoes goofeberry, may alfo be 
propagated by cuttings, planted during any of the Cum¬ 
mer months, in pots filled with frefli light earth, and 
plunged into a moderate hot-bed of tanners’ bark, obferv- 
ing to fliade them front the fun in the heat of the day, and 
to refrefh them every third or fourth day with water. In 
about two months the cuttings will have made good roots, 
when they Ihould be carefully taken out of the pots, and 
each planted into a feparate pot filled with frefli earth, 
and then plunged into the hot-bed again, where they may 
remain during the Cummer feafon; but at Michaelmas, 
when the nights begin to be cold, they Ihould be remo¬ 
ved into the ftove, and plunged into the bark-bed. Du¬ 
ring the winter feafon the plants mufi be kept warm, and 
watered twice a-week ; but in cold weather it Ihould not 
be given in large quantities. In Cummer they mull have 
a great (hare of air, and mud be more plentifully watered, 
but they Ihould remain conftantly in the ftove; for, though 
they will bear the open air in Cummer in a warm fituation, 
yet they will make no progrefs if they are placed abroad; 
nor do they thrive fo well in the dry ftove, as when they 
are plunged in the tan: fo that the beft way is to Cet 
them next a trellis, at the back of the tan-bed, to which 
their branches may be faftened, to prevent their trailing 
on other plants.

the cave of Cacus, and the hero became acquainted with

Cacus, fqueezed and ftrangled him in his arms, though
