The story had been long popular about the four battalions of the Old Guard, the last that maintained order on tbat occasion, having auswered the summons to surrender by the words, The Guard dies, but does not surrender. (La Garde meurte, et nc se. rend pas) and since the death of Cambronne the words have been attributed to him.

Another version had also been current, which, while it admitted a reply from Cambronne, made that reply cousist of a simple monosyllable, energetic and expressive enough no doubt, but somewhat deficient in eleganceindeed, so much so as not to bear even a distant allusion. It appears that M. Victor Hugo adopted in his late work, Les Miserables," the unparliamentary monosyllable alluded to, attributing it to Cambronne. The family of Cambronne have objected to this, on the ground that Cambronne was too well-bred a man" to use such language. The matter has been debated here for some time, some maintaining that Cambronne used the magnanimous words which may be quoted others, that it was the word which cannot be quoted several, that he used neither, but that it was another officer, named Michela, who gave the heroic answer and many, that the honour belongs to no one in particular, hut to the whole Guard in a body, and that Cambronne himself alway denied having said anything, good or bad.

At length the believers in the heroic version have lighted on a person named Deleau, deputy mayor of Vicq, in the department of the Nord, who testifies to the affirmative and the Prefect, in obedience to orders from the Minister of the Interior, sent forM. Deleau, who repeated his previous statement, which he has signed, and which is witnessed by Marshal M'Mahon, General Massiat, the Prefect, and Colonel Borel. The followingis Deleau's version of the affair I was at Waterloo in the square of the Guard, and, in consequence of my tall stature, in the first rank. I belonged to the Young Guard, being only twenty-three years of age, but, as is well known, the Young Guard had been then called upon to fill up the ranks of the old. The English artillery was sweeping us down, and we were replying at each discharge by volleys of musketry less' and less well sustained.

Between two discharges the English General cried out to us, 'Grenadiers, General Cambronne replied (I heard him perfectly well, as well as all my comrades), 'The Guard dies, and does not surrender 1 Fire I' was the answer of the English General. We closed up the square, and replied with our muskets. 'Grenadiers, surrender: You shall be treated as the first soldiers in the world repeated the English General. The Guard dies, and does not surrender, again replied Cambronne, and all along the line the officers and soldiers repeated with him, The Guard dies, and docs not surrender I remember perfectly well having said it, like the rest. We received a fresh volley, and replied by our own.

Surrender, Grenadiers surrender cries in a mass the English, who surrounded us on all sides. Cambronne replied to this last summons by a movement of anger, accompanied by words which I did not hear, as at that moment a ball carried away my bearskin hat, knocking me on a heap of dead. I thus declare to have beard repeated twice by Cambronne the words 'The Guard dies, and does not and not to have heard him say anything else." A SOCIALIST'S DAY DREAM. Do. Stirling, MM.

(WRITTEN EXPRESSLY" for this journal.) Yineries. We have seen two houses lately in which both plants and vines are grown, and both were badly managed. We have said before that it is no easy matter to grow greenhouse plants and vines in the same house, still it is quite possible, by care and attention, to succeed in growing both but the person having the charge of them must understand how to manage them before he can be successful. In the above cases neither men can have known anything about vinos, for they appear not to have been winter pruned and as to stopping and taking away laterals, neither has been done, and now the whole are densely run together like a mass of brambles covering the whole glass surface of the houses. Under sucli circumstances plants could not thrive, for although a partial shade is commendable in bright weather, a continued dense shade is certain ruin.

The evil may be still ameliorated, hut cannot be remedied this season, and it can only be done thus Take away all the weak shoots close to the stem, for on them are no fruit; cut back the strong ones to -within three buds of the fruit, and take away all the laterals except the point one, for if it is also cut off the next year's, bud will assuredly break, and weaken those behind it. The utmost care will be necessary in thinning out the wood not to injure the young berries, for they are most susceptible of injury in this stage. Peach-hoi'sk. Peaches which are in their last swelling should be liberally supplied with liquid manure, anil those whose fruit has been gathered should also have the same food to mature their buds. Syringe freely in both cases morning and evening, and look well to red spider.

Hotbeds. The weather has been more favourable for late melons this week, and if it continues so, night covering may be dispensed with but see that a sufficient bottom heat is maintained, and that fruit blossoms are duly fertilised. Thin out the old leaves of Russian cucumbers, and peg down the vines as they extend. It is less necessary to fertilise their fruit blossoms in fine weather whoa exposed, for bees perform that office but last week some days it was heedful, for these insects were so paralysed with the cold they could not fly. greenhouse.

It is impossible success can attend plant cultivation unless the plants are kept scrupulously free from insects, and we are sorry to say this also is sadly neglected in many of our best villa greenhouses. There is little expense attending the fumigation of a greenhouse, providing the house is quite close 'when fumigated. Sixpenny worth of tobacco liquor will saturate as much biwn paper as will fumigate such houses as are under consideration six times. Steep the paper in the liquor, and then dry it gradually. Take then a garden flower-pot and make a hole in the side of it large enough to admit the nozzle of a kitchen bellows, put a few live embers in the bottom of the pot, and the paper on the top of them.

Blow with the bellows gently to ignite the paper, and continue to do so until the house is filled with smoke. The first application may not be sufficient to destroy the whole of the aphides but if it be repeated next evening the whole will perish. When the operation is performed the house should be close, cool, and dry, and remain so during the night. Plants in borders of conservatories recently planted should be carefully attended to in watering, and those that arc established should also have a due amount of attention in the diffusion of moisture according to the respective requirements and habits of the plants. Sprinkle the surface often, to promote a genial atmospheric moisture in the whole house.

Prune back hnrd-wooded plants as they successively finish blooming, and give them weak liquid manure occasionally to grow their wood well for another year. flower garden. Pillar roses in bloom should have part of their gross shoots thinned out, and those that are left should be neatly tied in so as to show off the blossom. Perpetual roses require particular attention now in thinning their Do. Debenture btocK Tin.

do. Guaranteed THE FRENCH OCCUPATION OF ROME. On Wednesday morning, official papers respecting the French occupation of Rome" were issued, comprising four despatches from Lord Cowloj', with replies from Earl Russell, together with a despatch from Sir J. Hudson, addressed to Earl Russell. Earl Cowley, in Lis first communication, enclosed a lengthened extract from the Journal cles Debats, in which the suggestion of a mixed garrison at Clome, of French and Italian troops, was advocated.

In his reply to Earl Cowley, Earl Russell MVS With reference to your Excellency despatch of the 14th March, I have to state to you tlwit a mixed French and Italian garrison at Eomo would not he convenient. It would be much be iter that Italian troops should he allowed to occupy the whole of the Roman State on the loft bank of the Tiber, and that the trench should occupy the Vatican region of the city, Civita- Vecchia, and St Peter's Patrimony, on the right hank of the Tiber. Were this plan adopted, ag a temporary arrangement, the Pope would be u-otocted; his dignity as a sovereign prince vould be recognised and after a time the King of Italy and the Pope would by force of circum-Btanccs be reconciled. M. Thou veuel ought not to shut his eyes to the evils of the present state of affairs.

They are The French Govern-nentmakes itself unpopular with the Italian, ami especially the Roman people. 2. No Italian Government, whether of Ricasoli or Rattazzi, or any one else, can control efficiently the Mazz.mans, who thereby obtain undue influence. 3. A war may spring up at any time, the vicissitudes of vhich'may force the Emperor either to abandon fcis own work in Italy, or to defend Italian independence at the cost of a great and sanguinary war.

Great Britain, so far from interposing any obstacles in the way of France, is desirous to cooperate with her in finding a solution for the Italian question." In a Biibserment despatch, Earl Cowley says M. Thouvenel was of opinion that his Lordships ailan would not be accepted by either party the (fope declaring that he will listen to no arrangement which did not restore to him the possessions which he had lost, and the Italian Government teftising to sanction any settlement which did not recognise Rome as the capital of Italy. Earl Russell replied that he never imagined the t'ope would accept the plan. "We know well that even the liberal arrangement of 1815 met with a protest from Cardinal Gonsalvi on the subject of Ferrara and Comacchico. The Pope, therefore, would not consent to anything less than the restoration of Bologna and Ancona but this consent need not be asked more for Rome than it was for Bologna.

Your Excellency will recollect that as soon as the Austrian troops left Bologna, the city threw oif its allegiance to the So it would be if the French troops were to leave Rome. With respect to the consent of the Italian Government, your Excellency will jievceive that her Majesty's Government propose or suggest this plan as a temporary arrangement. If it were proposed as a final settlement, an taliah Minister would, no doubt, hesitate or refuse to agree to it hut, as a temporary arrangement; no one can believe that the evacuation of (P.niuc, Velletri, and Frosinone, and the left bank of the Tiber, by the French troops, would not bo CJ.g3.-ly accepted by the Italian people. Naples ivould be satisfied with a Government sitting at Homo; and the charge that a Ministry at Turin were attempting to Plemontizzare Italy would fall to the ground." Earl Cowlev, on March 28, informs the noble Tail of another conversation with the French Minister: M. Thouvenel then went into various arguments to prove, as he said, the rights which the Pope still possessed as a temporal sovereign, and to show that the claims put forward by the Italian Government to Rome as the capital of Italy, as also to Tenetia as an Italian province, were totally unjustifiable according to the common understanding of international law.

I do not enter into these arguments, because it was easy to convince him that they had no weight with the Imperial Government when the Legations; when Unibria and the Marches, when and when Naples and Sicily annexed them-wives to Sardinia. I merely mention them thus cursorily to your Lordship as further evidence I say it with unfeigned regret of the little hope that is to be entertained of modifying by discussion orremonstraucethecourse which theEmperor's Government is resolved to pursue with regard to the Papal question. The solution of it has been abandoned, to all outward appearance at least, to the Pope, and I see no other sure policy for Italy to pursue than to endeavour to consolidate the administration of the countries of which she is composed. She will thus acquire internalstrength and impose external confidence, and so be ready to take advantage of every favourable opportunity to complete her unity by showing the truth of the firnverb, that in union there is force." Writing on the 2d of April, Earl Russell observes M. Thouvenel no longer speaks of the difficulty of persuading the Italian Government to accept of such conditions as her Majesty's Government had suggested.

Nor is there any question of forcing the Pope to abandon his temporal power, and remain in Italy as the subject of another sovereign. The whole question is, whether the Pope having lost Romagna, the Marches, and Umbria, should retain the whole of the territory now occupied by France, or whether the French troops should occupy for the Pope only the Patrimony of St Peter, including the Vatican. Setting aside all difference between a Protestant and Roman Catholic sovereign, it is manifest that the principle thus upheld is at variance with the principles maintained everywhere else by France as well as by Great Britain. Rome is foreign territory; the Romans are to have nothing, and foreign troops everything, to say to the form of its government. Tins' system can hardly be of long duration, it is too directly opposed to the maxims of international law and the wishes of the Italian people.

I do not, however, wish your Excellency to enter into any polemics on this question. But, on the other hand, the French Government must not make it a reproach to the Government of Italy that the southern provinces are not in a state of tranquillity, while the French flag protects the Pope in maintaining a sanctuary where every chief of brigands can find- a refuge and prepare his band for future incursions on peaceful provinces. You are not to read this despatch to M. Thouvenel, but you may state to him the subject of it." The despatch of Sir J. Hudson, dated May gives a most favourable picture of the state of affairs at Aueona and other Italian towns and cities.

The aspect of the towns in the Marches and1 Umbria," he says, is that of cities awakened to new life." The country from Ancona to the Papal frontier is anxiously expecting the-completion of the railways, which are already commenced. At the Tiber the scene changes, and we enter also upon the desert. The contrast between the fertile garden of the Marches and Umbria, studded with substantial farms and well-kept country houses, and the desolate Cam-pagna was striking between the bustle and vigorous life of their towns and the solemn measured tread of Rome. It is clear that the reason for their secession was the inability or unwilling Next Mai! Mails. First from Edinburgh.

Pick off all the decayed blooms from rkohodendrons so as to give strength to the future flower buds.

We see many weak carnations and pecotees this season indeed we believe these are generally below the average both in the increase of grass and the strength of bloom buds, so that watering with liquid manure will require to be attended to in order to stimulate both to energy. Let every blank in the borders where bulbs are ripe be filled immediately up with store verbenas, geraniums, calceolarias, and see that those already planted are neither hampered nor overtopped by coarser and less valuable subjects.

On Tuesday there was read in Court an amusing document, the work of one Vassel It is headed by the words, what we will not have and what we will have," and then goes on to say that there is to be neither Empire nor Emperor no distinction of classes of rich and poor, or of masters and servants; that the great human family is not to be divided that there is to be no standing army, corrupt judges, or purchased advocates. Parliamentarism is to be done away with. The present regime is to be abolished, and replaced by a Democratic and Social Republic, with organisation of labour and pensions for the old and infirm.

All taxes, either direct or indirect, are to be abolished, as well as the whole of the public debt. There is to be a dictatorship, with the people always armed; also liberty of the Press right of meeting, of coalition, and association universal suffrage without anyothercon-ditiou than being of age equality between men and women tribunals under judges of integrity are to act gratuitously; all undertakings now organised by companies are to belong to the State, as well as all machinery and instruments of labour. All the corn produced is to be the property of the State, and the price of bread is to be uniform throughout the whole country, and fixed every year after the harvest. The State is to supply working associations gratuitously with all their implements and individuals who prefer working isolatedly are to receive gratuitously the raw materials and tools they may require. The State is to create industrial and agricultural bazaars for the sale of all productions.

The price of labour in manufactories is not to be less than If. an hour. All public functions are to be filled up by competition and election. Rents throughout the whole of France are to be gratis for those now estimated at 400f. those from 400f.

to 1800f. are to be reduced one-half, and those from 1800f. to 2400f. one-fourth. All dwellings pronounced to be unwholesome by a committee of public health are to be destroyed, and the proprietors of such houses are to pay an indemnity to the tenants for their removal.

All the pledges in the Mont de Piete are to be restored to their owners. As regards successions, the State is to be the sole inheritor, the whole revolution being summed up in the three acts organisation of labour general instruction; and pensions for the infirm and aged.

We would anxiously advise a trial of good guano applied as directed hist week. There is enough to do in the kitchen garden at present to get in cauliflowers, bro-colies, leeks, green kale, cabbages, celery, and successions of lettuce, endive, and a sowing of black Spanish raddish. Sow these in drills fifteen inches apart, and thin them out like white Dutch turnips. Earth up cbardoons and the earliest celery little by little, when both ground and plants are dry. hardy frdit garden.

Fork over the ground around spring-planted trees to admit atmospheric influences, as it is so beaten and compact with heavy rains that it is quite impervious to those. Continue to cut away the runners from strawberry plants where increase is not desired, and layer those in pots intended for forcing. Cut away from wall and espalier trees all spray that ovcrshades the principal leaves, that they may have full exposure to light and air. arboriculture. Cut or clip privet, thorn, beech, and hornbeam hedges, so that the wood they may now make be perfectly matured to withstand the winter.

This is a good time to give the second cleaning to the roots of hedges, but on no account should these be digged just now, which is a too common practice, for their roots are so near the surface that they will be cut to the great detriment of every hedge, and especially to young ones.

Rome may join them they never will return to Rome voluntarily." Gunpowder Superseded.

A cotemporary writes The Germans have a proverb, according to which people of limited talent are put down as not having invented gunpowder or, in plain English, as not being likely to set the Thames on fire. If the saying implies that the invention of that destructive material must he the work of genius, they may now boast of having produced the fourth of the kind. Apart from the ancient discovery of Berthold Schwarz, and the more novel invention of gun-cotton by Professor Schonbein, the feat has just been repeated in another way by two officers in the Prussian and Austrian service. Of these, Hanptmann Sohimdt, a captain of artillery at Berlin, is the original discoverer, whose idea was subsequently imitated and improved by Colonel von Uchatius. The latest explosive material consists of the flour of starch, which, boiled in a peculiar way with nitric acid, possesses a far greater projective force than the gunpowder in ordinary use.

It also has the great advantage of not fouling the piece to any appreciable extent, and, from the nature of the materials used, is produced at a far cheaper rate. Another point in its composition which recommends it especially forfoitresses and magazines is the facility with which the ingredients are mixed together, thus rendering it possible to keep them separate until wanted for actual use. In this state the powder is non-explosive. The experiments now in course of progress in Vienna and Berlin are said to leave little doubt as to its general adoption in the Austrian and Prussian armies," The followlig are the Railway Week Belfast and Northern Counties 8elfast and County Down Blyth and Tyne Bristol and Exeter Caledonian Cork and Bandon Cork, Blackrock, and Passage Co nwail Desslde Dublin and Belfast Junction Dublin nnd Drogheda Dublin Wicklow (Incl.

Admiral Protet was at the head of the French soldiers and marines when he received his death-wound. He had on hia right Admiral Hope, the commander of the English forces, and with whom he had always been on the most friendly terms. Admiral Protet was a brave and distinguished officer, and his heroic death has produced an immense sensation at Shanghai." Arb. GLASGOW STOCK EXCHANGE. Friday, July 11, 1862.
