III. The Slender Deutzia

(Deutzia Gracalis.) - Those of our readers already in possession of that charming hardy shrub, the Deutzia Scabra, will welcome with pleasure a new, equally beautiful, and more airy species - with long white flowers, borne in slender panicles. This species, very lately introduced from Japan, grows about three feet high, with a slightly pendant habit in the branches - the leaves only about an inch long - the flowers a delicate paper white - blooming in May. It grows readily from cuttings, and delights in a rich light loam. .

IV. The Double Flowering Horse Chestnut

(Aesculus Hippo, fl. pleno.) - We do not know whether this rare and beautiful lawn tree may yet be had in this country,

If You Have Got Good Fruits, Keep Then

The Germantowm Telegraph says: When you have a good strawberry or raspberry which suits your soil, don't throw it aside for any new sort with a high-sounding name and a high-sounding price; but stick to it. If the new sort turns out to be a real acquisition, you can grow it if you like quite time enough to enjoy any good qualities it may possess. We know of persons who are always changing their varieties of small fruits - always experimenting - and are nearly always without a good supply. In our experience of a series of years we have found the "let-good-enough-alone " policy to be the best.

Ilex Aquifolium, Var. Pendulum Foliis Variegatit

A fine weeping variety of Holly, with prettily variegated leaves. A garden variety.

Ilex Aquifoucm - English Holly

There is a specimen here fifteen feet in height, a perfect pyramid of foliage. There are many single specimens about The varieties are also well represented and seem equally at home. I have seen a plant of I. latifolia that stood one winter, but doubt its ability to get over the present one. The native Holly is equally ornamental. It likes shade when young.

Ilex Cornula

This fine evergreen shrub seems to be quite hardy. Its leaves are remarkable in form, having one or two marginal spines and the apex dilated with usually three spiny spreading horn-like points; flowers small, white, axillary. China.

Ilex Fortuni

There is growing in the nursery of Mr. Glendinning, of Tarn-ham Green, a handsome evergreen Holly raised from seeds collected by Mr. Fortune in China, at a place named Hwuy-chou, where it formed a fine tree, loaded with large berries in December, 1853. In its young state it is much like I. cor-nnta, bat in the adult condition it acquires quite another appearance, resembling a very broad-leaved, entire-leaved European Holly. The flowers are unknown, the specimen before us being only in fruit. In that state there is in the axil of each leaf a sessile umbel of from six to ten stalks, each about three-quarters of an inch long; so that, when loaded with berries, it must have a glorious appearance. We can find no description of any Asiatic species (of which there are many) that will apply to this, which we therefore suggest should bear the name of its intelligent discoverer.

Illairea Canarinoides (Canarina Like Illairea)

Native of Central America, and introduced thence to Europe by M.Warszewicz. It is a hardy annual; " but is a very dangerous neighbor, one of the men in Kew Gardens having suffered severely, and for some weeks, from being accidentally stung by it." Flowers, dull brick color, appearing in July and August. It belongs to the natural order Loaseae. - Ibid., t. 5022.
