      The Floral Arcade—It is . now stated that . the . Arcade , adjoining the new Opera-house , at Coyentgarden , will not be completed , though it will be opened , this summer . The ground plan of the new floral market is described as resembling the letter L , the ' principal entrance being in Bow-street , at the end of the longer arm of the letter , while the other

      opens upon Covent-garden Market , by the side of the piazza , at the end of the shorter arm . Over the junction of the arcade will be a lofty dome . The extreme length of the arcade , from Bow-street to the west -wall , will be 228 feet , and from Coventgarden to the theatre , 100 feet . The width of both parts meeting at the dome is 75 feet . The dome , with the ornamental lantern which will surmount it , will be a little over 90 feet . When the arcade is entirely complete it will be decorated in white and gold . Hot-water pipes will be used for keeping up the temperature during winter , and gas is also laid on , so that the interior can be lit up for night fates It is intended to bring together in one building especially adapted for the purpose the immense trade which is now scattered all over the suburbs of London , in the hothouses and grounds of our great florists cimuea

      and nurserymen . The market will be among the principal growers , and all the flowers will be arranged in a large bank in the centro nave , with smaller ones in the aisles . Seeds , cuttings , tools , seats , and garden furniture of all kinds will bo sold only in the aisles—the centre being reserved exclusively for flowers . The night promenade in connexion with the Opera will only be given four timc . J * season . In order to give great facilities of ingress and egress on these nights , there is mv entrance into the arcade from the grand staircase , and one from the Opera entrnnce-hall . A largo entrance in tho north wall , about 00 feet from Bow-street , leads from the pit , and a fourth door above from tho ore iwtra stalls . Thus , there are no less than four additional means of exit from the theatre . Tho doors loading from the grand staircase and entranco-hall will , as soon as the arcade ia finished , be . loft open on every

      opera night . A passage formed of a short gmes »«« iron screen shuts off the arcade from tho Bew street entrance , where carriages of visitors Jo jig Opera can both set down and take up , nn < l »{« J » additional convenience eleven carriages can taKo up at tho same time . —The Critic . „ The Milan Gazette announces that the JNoat politan steamers In tho Mediterranean have receivea > rders not to touch at Genoa .
