Example from Woburn.-As there are few palaces in England that can vie in magnificence with that of Woburn, it may furnish an example of greatness in variety and character in its garden scenery, without making its dimensions the standard of its greatness. The mansion is connected with its appendages, such as the stables, riding-house, tennis-court, orangery, Chinese-pavilion, game-larder, &c. &c., by a corridor, or covered passage, of considerable length, which is enriched with flowers and creeping plants. This passage is proposed to be extended to the hot-houses in the forcing garden, which is to form a centre, for a series of different gardens, under the following heads:- The terrace and parterre near the house. The private garden, only used by the family. The rosary, or dressed flower garden, in front of the greenhouse. The American garden, for plants of that country only. The Chinese garden, surrounding a pool in front of the great Chinese pavilion, to be decorated with plants from China. The botanic garden, for scientific classing of plants. The animated garden, or menagerie. And, lastly, the English garden, or shrubbery walk, connecting the whole; sometimes commanding views into each of these distinct objects, and sometimes into the park and distant country.
