■Ton, and fliould be duly watered every two or three days 
in hot weather. As the plants advance in their growth, 
they fliould be Shifted into larger pots ; for, if their roots 
are too much confined, the plants will not make any con¬ 
siderable progrefs; but they fliould not be over potted, 
for that will be of worfe confequenqe than the other ; 
becaufe, when they are planted in very large pots, they 
will Starve and decay, without producing- any flowers. 
They are too tender to endure the open air in this, coun¬ 
try, therefore they fliould always remain in the hot-be(l, 
being careful to let them have a due proportion of air in 
hot weather; and the annual or twelfth fort fliould be 
brought forward as faft as poflible in the fpring, that the 
plants may flower early, otherwife they will not produce 
good feeds in England. 
The thirteenth and feventy-ninth forts fliould remain 
in the hot-bed during the Summer feafon, provided there 
is room under the glafles, without being Scorched ; but at 
Michaelmas they fliould be removed into the Stove, and 
plunged into the bark-bed, where they mult remain dur¬ 
ing the winter feafon, obferving to keep them warm, as 
alfo to water them gently once or twice a-week, accord¬ 
ing as they Shall require. The following Summer thefe 
plants will flower, and abide feveral years; but they rare¬ 
ly produce good feeds in Europe. The flxteenth fort 
may be more hardily' treated, when the plants have ob¬ 
tained Strength. This may be alfo increased by cuttings, 
as directed for the fnap-tree; and wdien the plants are 
two or three years old, they will thrive in a moderate de¬ 
gree Of warmth in the winter, and in fummer they may be 
placed abroad for two months in the warmelt feafon; hut 
they fliould have a Sheltered Situation ; and, when the nights 
begin to grow cold, they mull he removed into the ftove ; 
but they mull have free air admitted to them at all times 
when the weather is warm. The feventy-fecond and 
eightieth forts fliould constantly remain in the bark-ftove, 
and require the fame treatment as other tender plants 
from the warmest countries.

JUSTIN I. emperor of the Eaft, was born in 450 of an 
obfeure family at a village in Thrace. He was brought 
up to the mean office of keeping cattle, which he was in¬ 
duced, by an adventurous Spirit, to quit for the military 
fervice, and he entered among the guards of the emperor 
Leo. He gradually rofe through Succeflive Steps of pro¬ 
motion in the courfe of fifty years, and at the death of the 
emperor AnaftaSius, in 518, poflefied the important office 
of prefeft-prastorio. It is afl’erted that he was entrufted 
with the distribution of a large fum of money among the 
guards, by the eunuch Amantius, for the purpofe of rai¬ 
ling one of that minister’s friends to the empire, and that 
he employed it in gaining their fuffrages for himfelf. How¬ 
ever this were, he fucceeded to the purple without oppo¬ 
sition ; and, through his character for lenity of disposition 
and orthodoxy in the faith, his eleftion was agreeable to 
the clergy and people. Amantius was foon after put to 
death, with fome of his aflociates, on a charge of conspi¬ 
racy. The Gothic chief Vitalian, who had revolted againft 
Anaftafius, and remained at the head of a powerful army, 
was decoyed into the palace, and affalfinated at a royal ban¬ 
quet. Juftin, whom want of education and advanced 
years rendered little fitted for managing the concerns of the 
State, entrufted the public bufinefs to the queftor Proclus, 
and brought his nephew Juftinian from the country to 
Constantinople to be educated as his heir and the future 
Sharer of his empire. The principal events of this reign 
were the persecution of the Arians, and advances towards
