Messrs Editors : —As one of the numerous audi
ence who attended the sermon of Bishop Reynolds on
Sunday last, I must say that I was not only pleased with
his address which was ofthat peculiar style w hich wins
the heart whilst it convinces the head, but regret that
his stay amongst us was so necessarily limited us not to
permit him to continue those useful lectures, llis elo
quence on that occasion did full justice, not only to ins
native state, Kentucky, so noted for its great public
speakers, but to the church which now occupies such a
prominent position in the political and religious world,
and ofw liich he is a distinguished member.

THU DAHLIA.
(Dahlia or Georgina variabalis J
BY SUBSET NELSON.
! This splendid flower, too well known to need any
description, is a native of Mexico, where it grows on
. light rich meadows. As early as 178i), it was brought
to Madrid, but the Spaniards looking out more for the
| Mexican gold than lor the finest vegetable productions,
the plants were soon lost. Lady Holland again intro
duced seeds of this plant into England in 1804, and
for many years the single blooming Dahlias were raised
i there, without being much appreciated. In France and
Germany greater attention was paid to their culture,
an i in 1814, the first ball double Dahlia appeared in
the royal garden at Berlin, in Prussia This event gnve
a sudden impulse to their culture, and in a very short
time, the splendid double Duldias were produced. Two
species were distinguished of this genus : the fertile
rayed CD. superjiuu) and the barren rayed (D.Jrustra
nea), both in a great variety of colors, but the latter,
not being so variegated as the former, and not being
fancied,ware soon dropped, and are now scarcely to
be seen any where.
The Dahlias, now in cultivation (w itki lertile rays,)
improve wonderfully with every year in shape, and di
versity of colors. The expanded and irregular Mowers
are changed into a beautiful cupped, and regular form,
sometimes with twenty rows of petals and more ; the
plain colors sported in almost every shade except blue ,
and those ugain by hybridizing into variegated kinds.
Those commonly c tiled Fancy Dahlias, are very fine
showy,and amongst them will be found primrose, regu
larly lipped with carmine; white edged with lilac;
white edged with crimson ; white tipped with bright
carmine ; daik purple tipped with pure white ; yellow
tipped with red ; red mottled with yellow and puiple ;
und many moie ; but most of those, costing from $1 to
$3, have not been cultivated here in Georgia.
Bui it is not only their great beauty aud diversity of
colors, which renders them indispensable m every taste
liilly arranged Mower garden ; their long and continually
□looming season (particularly so late in summer, thul the
gardens, deprived of almost any other valuable Mower,
I would look barren,) gives them their greatest value ; no
tall boquet can be tine and show y without them. It is the
same lor Fall ornament, that the Camelia,Verbena and
! Hyacynth are tor Winter and Spring,
j Besides this, their culture is,particularly in the South
iem Slates, the easiest of all. New varieties are raised
1 irorn seeds, but as this is a very troublesome and uncer
j tain way, it is conmn nly left to the Nursery men ; the
multiplving ot the known hue kinds by dividing the
* roots, do not need any further description.
The. Dahlias thrive tw-9t in a rich, mellow, and light
! soil, with a deep fertile sub-soil, where they can extend
: their roots at liberty ; and the best situation is in a moist
• valley, whose soil is enriched by washing down from
i the lull sides. Stiff clay is just as pernicious to them as
poor sand, and still more ; they are fond ol an open sit
i uation, and do not seem toMounsh well, when planted in
the shade of trees or wails. In raising them I always
! observe some rules, which perhaps may be welcome
1 to those less acquainted with them :
Ist. Dig a hole two feet deep, till it withs ich soil as
| mentioned, and some rotten manure in the bottom.
1 2nd. Flam the root 9at least six inches below the sur
face.
| 3rd. Never allow more than one stem to grow from
a root, but break offall the other suckers,
i 4th. Tie the stem firmly to strong stakes. This is a
matter of great consequence, as the most vigorous
plants are most exposed to be broken by high winds.
| For tins reason one stake is quite iii9ufHcient. Every
Dahlia ought to stand between three stakes, four or five
feet high, placed on three different sides round the plant,
and their tops tied firmly together in a conical shape, that
they may stiffen each other. This is certainly some
trouble, but it is a necessary evil, if we will not see
Dahlias destroyed, when standing in their highest per
fection.
j The best time for planting out Dahlias, is, when there
! is no more danger ol cold weather, say, in the vicinity
| of Macon, from the beginning to the middle of April;
press the earth not firm around them, but water them
alter being planted, and then not again before they com
mence growing, and afterwards occasionally in dry
seasons.
For a Southern climate, as that of Macon, it will do
well to treat them as other perennials and leave them in
the ground through the winter ; in a more northern
situation, they will need to be covered with some litter
or dry leaves, and in a climate north of Virginia, they
must be taken out of tlie ground, but the further treat
ment 1 will omit, as not warned here.

The friends of Gen. Taylor met in the Senate Cham

Tay'or to the people of that State asa candidate for the
Fresuiency. Judge J. Webb presided, assisted byJ.
W Rolrertson and E. S. Ferkms as Vice Rr. side-its.
and Messrs Crutcher und Drew acted as Secretaries.—
The meeting was addressed by the Fiesident, Mr. Ep

Caldwell,Gen. Wm. L. Caznean and B. H. Epperson.
G*ii. Lime returned.
This distinguished officer arrived at New-Orleans
on the 26th inat. m the steamer Edith, which sailed
from Vera Crux on the 20th. The General was in the
famous battle of Buena Vista, also in two engagements
with the guerrilleros, one at Ayotln and the other at Hu
amantln. He likewise arrived at Fuebla at a critical
moment, when Generals Santa Anna and Rea were on
the point of regaining possession of the place The
General has more recently distinguished himself in sev
eral expeditions against tile guerritlernf So energetic,
so skilful, and successful, have been all lus movements
that he has earned a tale of which any might Ire proud,
■nd which he h is well deserved —“the Marion of the

in consequence of private losses sustained by the recent
great flood in the western waters.

metropolis.
Al.tny traditions have been given, concerning the I
original founder of the Alihy ol St Denis The tirsl 1
well authenticated name tbu- History points out in
connection w.tli tins ancient building, is tluii ol Dago
bert, son ot C'itilperic ; who was hurried here in bSO
Subsequently we notice the name of Pepin, tile father
ot Charlemagne, who it is related of, as having built a
church upon this spot, but nothing remains now to
prove the laet tlist such did exist Some time in die
reign of Louis VII, a building was erected bySuger.a
portion of which was destroyed, but afterwards rebuilt.
I be present Abby was lor a long period much neglect
ed, and abused, but Napoleon gave orders that it should
be entirely repaired, which was done, and the vault of
tile liourbons testored to its original saeredm ss. Tina
church once, ontnined the most costly ornaments known
in the kingdom, anil were removed at the time of the
Revolution.
The exterior architecture is superb, mid is probably
without its equal in Prance. An enormous amount has
Is ett expended in repairs, estimated at about .tgA
tern million of franca. The Irom is embellished by
ait elegant turreted wall, Ranked by two towers—oil i
the Northern side it isudorned wliitl, handsome gables,
surmounted by a stone spire. The various Isutresses,
and walls are crowned with battlements. You obtain
enhance into the body of the church by tiirec large ‘
portals witu retiring arches which are highly decorated
with figures of saints, and other scriptural illustrations.
Like many of the churches in Paris.it is cruciform .having
a nave and two aisles, with side chapels. St. Denis is I
celebrated as being the royal tomb house ol all the kings
of France,from as early as Dagobert to [we were abou i
to say] Jjiuis I'hiliii,r. but unfortunately tins once proud 1
monarch will sleep beneath other soil than the .and ol j
hts birth. Yesterday the great ruler of France; but to
day the sceptre has lallen, and the old man is an exile ,
bowed down by weight of years, and sud Jen sorrows.
We shall not detain your renders with a description
of tile chapels, for they resemble others already describ
ed in a former number of our series. Among the most
striking monuments are those of Louis XII, Anne ot
Biittainy, Catherine de Mt'dicis, and Henry H,—the
lormer being executed in white marble. In another
direction fiom the one just mentioned, you will recog
nise the tomb ol Francis Ist,and Claude of France.
Turn now your eyes to the Cholur d’ niter, lit by
five gorgeous painted windows, the ceiling highly guild
ed,and the statues ol the twelve apostles, resting upon
pieces of stone against the columns. Above the altar
is a painting representing the martyrdom of St. Dents,
by a Lso says tjalignani] of Rubens Apart from
the monuments already specified, the following are to
be seen ; frauds 11, Margaret ol Provence, statues ot
Marshal Turenne.St. Louis and Isabel dec lie lore
J the h gh altat in this church, Napoleon was married to
his second wile Marie Louise. He also built a royal
tomb designed tor Inmseli.but the people of France con
sulted their own wishes, and placed linn quietly at tin
Hotel des Invilides. Louis XV I, Marie Antoinette.
Louts XVIII, and others of royal honors are interred
here. The stained glass in this Cathedral Ibrms a
chronological series of the priucipa l events connected
with tile rulers ot France,in relerence to the church, trom
i St. Denis, to Napoleon. The windows preserve their
original brightness, though upwards of six hundred
j years inexistence
We shall now return to the city and conclude this
j article by a description of other interesting places,
winch in themselves are of importance to die stranger
and the first we shall notice is the Poulinon. designed
j asa temple dedicated to the great men of France. The
j Dome of tins budding in form, resembles St. Pauls at
; London, but in height an i circumference is muc hsmud
| er, and the effect is not so grand and striking. Above
the entrance on tile frieze the following inscription in
letters of gold will at once arrest the attention.
Aux grands homines la patne reconaaissante.
| Still higher up, the style of architecture is ably exe
cuted, though it appears at first glance rather stiff,
‘ which however you soon forget when a correct position
( is obtained. The front portion of tlte building issup
j ported by six HnteJ Corinthian pillars of rich material
j Within, the pavement is composed of stone, and mar
ble, save a part directly beneath the Dome, which is
of circular Mosaic. Underneath, the guide will con
duct you through a series of vaults, some ol which are
j arranged after the tombs of the Romans at Pompeii.—
| We obtained atnere glimpse a! some of the most im
portant tombs, namely : those ol Voltaire, Rosseau, i
Lagrange, Marshal Lannes, Duke de Montebello 4,c.
Vultalic has the billowing words inscribed upon hts
monument: Porta, Ifistorien, Philosphe il agraadit

The visitor may ascend the immense gallery and Dome
by a request of the attendant, who expects a small gra
tuity for services rendered.
Place de la Concorde is beautifully situated between
tire Palace of tlie Tuitenea and Champs F.lysees, and
is beyond doubt the most charming and attractive spot
in the city of Parts. In looking to the North, the su
perb church ot the Madclame is seen, to die .South, the
Chamber ol Deputies, to tie West the Triumphal Arch
of L’Etoile, and to the East, the Garden of Tuderies
with its agreeable shade, and cooling jets d’ eaa. Up
on tins -pace lite Guillotine was ejected and Louis XVI, >
Marie Antoinette, Dun ton, Vlarie Helene sister of Lou

that now blacken the pages in the History of the French i
Revolution, were all executed. One can hardly !
realize that this was the great slaughter Itousr, for the
uniortuuate victim, that ouijr “a little month’ ago was 1
the scene of joy and sunshine, ami now it has assumed ‘
again the direful aspect ot civil conimolton. Since
last we saw it, a king has abdicated tlie throne, death
and destruction has been the result, and a Republican
Government attempted to be organized, but this will be
of short duration,for, allow me to say that the French
people have never exhibited a permanent desire ol sell I
government, consequently they will again assume tlteir j
ancient form of Government, which now appeuis fal

still you may annei|iair another monarch on the throne

is pardonable, when the reuder is informed that the

Immigration of English Operative*.
The English pn|* t received by the Cambria, inform
us that extensive preparations are b. ing made by the
operatives in the cotton trade to emigrate to the United
Stuies in large numbers. The London Shipping and
Mercantile Gazette, of the Bth February, says that hun
dreds ol operatives in every branch of manufacture
were em grating to foreign countries, particularly to
tile United rftules, aud that thousands were pr, timing,
under special organization, io fellow their example
The sa “>e paper of 23th February, says that thisorgan
, ization has nlreudy commenced in i union Mure, and on
Sunday evening, the lddi of February, a meeting ot
delegates ol operative cotton spinners from all the towns
was tie Id in llolton, when it was resolved to piomote
j tlte object by weekly subscriptions among the opera*
! tives.
I lit* eommiitee appointed re|wrted, ut tins meeting,
! that d,OOU members, paying two pence sterling each,
will m fitly weeks enable the Association to emigrate
, 320 at 1 j each, and as there are 8000 m me districts,
the committee teel assured that this simple statement
need only Ire laid before the workers ill each district,
to convince them oi tts utility nud heneiicial influence
; upon the trade, and to induce them immediately to
1 subscribe, and curry it fully and speedily into elfect.
The tlanclivster Examine- suites that “numbers of
j industrious aud prudent operatives, who have either
j saved a little money when toe sun shone, or who have
j been assisted tiy tln ir relatives ami (fiends, are emigra
ting to the United States.”
Inal this emigration of the operatives, carried on,
as it wnl he, by private and public subscription, will be
very extensive, the London editor referred to enter
tains no doubt, und he congratulates the people ol Lan

Good and IJud Fortune.
Good or bad fortune is just ns it is felt. Masters in
general appear no happier than their servants. We
are not Io look for contentment in palaces alone, but
may as well find it in huts. A gentleman may be poor
in the midst of plenty ; but to be discontented with
riches is accumulated poverty. —Ex Paper

it, give every contiden ce that the success of the new
system, so promulgate* 1, is no longer problematical’, |
but is a fixed fact, the more graulying, as it show*
conclusively tint such advancement is owing almost
entirely to the irresistible conviction produced upon the
