A correspondent who lores the ornamental, and succeeds in all he undertakes, writes thus: "The most successful thing I had, this year, was a large circular bed, fifteen feet in diameter, which we called our jungle, filled with Canna major, Arams, Bananas, from the conservatory, the three Dracenas (ferrogiana, terminalis, and the large-leaved one), Mosa Cavendishii, and the different Aloes and Yuccas, all planted closely in the ground, a little raised in the middle; they looked, I assure you, perfectly tropical. We only wanted a Palm-tree in the centre, to have imagined ourselves with you in Cuba. You have made us almost crazy by your botanical descriptions of that island; as soon as everything gets settled at home, we shall sail for that "fairy isle," and take the Horticulturist for the last six months for our guide-book. We have got a little tired of Black Hamburghs and Muscats, and want to eat oranges off of the trees, and see a twenty-acre lot of Pine-apples, an Aloe hedge, and a real sugar mill." [Glad to hear it.

Go if you can, and are in want of a new sensation. - ED].
