calls the best gardener of his time, and who established the first effective system of hot-house culture for pines in England, died in 1819, aged eighty-six; and in the same year, William Marshal, a voluminous agricultural writer and active farmer, died at the age of eighty. And I must mention one more, Dr. Andrew Duncan, a Scotch physician, who cultivated his garden with his own hands — inscribing over the entrance gate 'Hine salus'--and who was the founder of the Horticultural Society of Edinburg. This hale old doctor died in 1828, at the extreme age of eighty-four; and to the very last year of his life he never omitted going up to the top of Arthur's Seat every May-day morning to bathe his forehead in the summer's dew. As a country liver, I like to contemplate and to boast of the hoary age of these veterans. The inscription of good old Dr. Duncan was not exaggerated.

Turning from war a moment to look into a new book, we find that "Ik Marvel," the author of "The Reveries of a Bachelor," has just published "Wet Days at Edgewood"--a very agreeably-written volume. Of a country life, he says: "In the course of one of my earlier Wet Days, I took occasion to allude to the brave old age that was reached by the classic veterans — Xenophon, Cato and Varro; and now I find among the most eminent British agriculturists and gardeners of the close of the last century a firm grip on life that would have matched the hardihood of Cato. Old Abercrombie, of Preston Pans, as we have already seen, reached the age of eighty. Walpole, though I lay no claim to him as farmer or gardener, yet, thanks to walks and garden-work of Strawberry Hill, lived to the same age. Philip Milles was an octogenarian.

Noris the comparative safety of gardening or farming pursuits due entirely to the vigorous bodily exercise involved, but quite as much, it seems to me, to that enlivening and freshening influence which must belong to an intimate and loving and intelligent companionship with Nature. It may be an animal view of the matter; but, in estimating the comparative advantages and disadvantages of a country life, I think we take too little account of
