ageia it runs wildly over a rus- tie bower ; then clings to some gnarly grapevine ; again dips ite tender branchlets in the sparkling waters of the slowiy-gliding streamiet while the beautiful flower.like golden cups may lesd our imagination to believe they are the drinkiog vessels of the fairies of the woods, snd then it dances away in the finest wreaths and natural festoons of mingled verdure and flowers.OCLINOING VINES ARB BOT A PLEASURE ONLY, BUT 4 BECEOMTY, Wherever there is an unsightly fence or wall, tbere existsibe opportunity to render it the most beautiful part of the garden.Oar pew- buiit boi es with all their elaborate decorations aod imposing designs, are still cheerless until mellowed snd softened by the genial touch end presonce ot Nature.The wood, brick, or stone stand out in spgular outlines, bare snd hard, and tack the cae thing needful to heighten their «ifact, Let thom bo wreatbed with climbing vices, and let their corners he bid under the deheata foliage or brilliant flowers of the vine, und architecture nod Nature combine in bar- monicus proportions to produce highest pic- turegque effect.The list of climbing plants is quite extended, comprising over thirty, all deserving complimentary notice; but time forbids mention of ali but à few, the most useful and po- paler.Beveral years since a Baltimore gardener, possesting some locust trees rapidly being destroyed by tbe borer, determined to remove them ; but there was one tree, standing on the south side of the house, affording a sbade to several windows, that he felt could not be dispensed with without great inconvenience.Although the tree could not live long; yet, by planting the Virginia creeper at its foot, and allowin, the vine to mantle the dead branches, it would afford some shade until anotber tres could be reared.The creeper was removed from another location, aad replanted with great care; its stem, nearly or quite ap inch in diameter, was twined about the trunk aod principal braneksz, to the beight of, perbaps, twenty feet and moderately pruned.The gardener says that the experiment was 80 ectirely successful that, by being enveloped in the broad folisge of the vine, the tree was saved from the ravages of the insect to its top, and continues to live in fine bealth, But the grew with the utmost vigor, notwithstanding it was planted four feet off the tree, and now overruns nearly the whole of the latter, hanging in masses and festoons from tbe higher branches, a perfect wilderness of foliage, Says be: \u2014 \u201cI donot besitate to say that it is the most beantiful object on the place, ita young shoots, with their small and delicate light-green leaves forming & recsarkably Bne contrast to the immense foliage of the darker green which clothes the old wood.In addition to this, the gorgeous appearance of the whole mass after the October frosta bave cbanged the different shades of green to the most brilliant and varied tints of crimson, scarlet and yellow, 1s beyond my power of description.\u201d Although I could wish to describs the attrnc- tions of tbe morning-glory, eo common around allour country cottages, or the many climbing roses, every one s bright particnlar star of beauty or dilate upon the exquisite perfume of the bosey-suckle, still T reserve a chofee rosition for modest worth in the Chinere Wisteria.The Wisteria species, 33 a rule is perfectly bardy\u2014grows with grest rapidity wbea well started in rich soil ; but among the six or more varieties known snd named, the Chicese Sinentis bas received tbe verdict of popular preference, sarpassiog all olbers in the great development of its stems mad the astonishing profusion of the flowers of the size of the azure colored clusters, The foliage ie noticeable for its delicate beauty, while the flowers hang in rich purple ciusters like grapes.They appear absut tbe last of May in the open ground, bat if trained tn the rafters of the green-house they will be found in full blossom io March, while the rampant growth seams to occapy the entire space aoû fill tt with thousands of the delicate purple clusters.[In Ohieago decayed trees are invaluable ina garden, as they are lovariably covered with the richest verdure of the wild-ivy or other beanti- ful climbers.=Fp.Wre.] Cuisauen a+ vus Wasm-ron.=0f all the employments to which Obinamen apply themselves in San Francisco, they seem to best succeed in the laundry business.They are wonderful wash- .ormen,\u2014and they iron sbirts with the bottom of a pau filed with charcosl and obetinately refuse to use the flat-iron, which is simpler and better.But they return shirts in beautiful condition, with all tbe battons sewed on, and dilapidated garments neatly mended ; and all this is done at abont one-balf the price charged by the Ban Francisco washerwomen for baif the work.Oonsegnentiy, tbe Obinamen as wasbermen are very 6 l, 50 much so that strong hopes are entertained that they may je time learn to wash themselves.Nu 30 87.HeLEN ATRSET, MONTREAL.Our PALL and WINTER NT:0UK 13 now complete, and ready for the inspection of buyers.AGASIN DE LOUVRE, iT RE DAME pTREET, fo te now opsn with an entire new stock of select Paney | ey Goods, comprising: = Dress Milks, Funcy Antumn Dresses, and Paris Millinery;

There is » simple but extremely enteriainiog play to which our young folks have given the name of Verburium, and which bas bat a remarkable effect within our observation in sinuulstiug the faculty of lenguage in many somewlist slug- gub brains, A number of persons =the mors the merrior\u2014ate provided with pencils and paper, sands word chosen es ibe Verdarium, which! each writes at the bead of his sheet.The object: of the game is to draw out the vast uum ber of words which lie folded up, as it wore, in the excitement and amusement, in the following i manner: Let us suppoee, for instance, that the word chosen is Treazon.Une of the company is appointed time-kecper ; and tbe signal being given, each writes ag rapidly as possible all the words beginning with P, wbich can be spelied with the letters of the serbariunm.!
