Mr. Fr. Harms, of Hamburg, repeats in the May issue of the Journal des Roses that he is satisfied that Madame Ferdinand Jamain "ne plaisit pas ici " (no good here), and that the penstroke of an American speculator in calling it American Beauty is its chief merit. Mr. Harms has no objection to the "Im-pressario" of an opera praising "the young and beautiful charms "of an antiquated prima donna; but he says he dislikes these ancient beauties among roses being sent off as fresh virgin rose buds, and hence his opposition.
