HENRY BURGESS, LL.D. & Ph.D., &c. &c. "When we say that the substance of this Volume was written as a series of Papers for The Gardener's Chronicle,' we shall have said enough to recommend it as a safe guide for all who need its directions. We should not, however, be doing our duty if we did not call attention to the very agreeable manner in which it is written, and to its literary pretensions. Such are its claims in this respect, that even those who are not placed in positions to become amateur gardeners may read it for the sake of enjoying the mental pleasure of attending to a garden. But those who have a garden not bigger than the frontage of one of the innumerable villas that extend along all the roads out of London, will read this book with pleasure and profit."-Athenæum. ་ Edinburgh: A. & C.
