ARTICLE I. 

 A DESCRIPTION OF CLIMBING & AUTUMNAL FLOWERING ROSES, 



BY THE REV. JAMES JONES, A. M. BRISTOW RECTORY. 



Many of the Autumnal Flowering Roses being now in bloom, both 

 climbers and others, I forward for insertion in the Cabinet, a list of 

 what I know to be good. The kinds I have seen in bloom, and have 

 carefully compared the flowers with the descriptions given by Mr. 

 Rivers, Mr. Wood, and others, celebrated for growing Roses, that I 

 can testify to their correctness and agreement, as to merit. I have 

 forwarded the list now in order that, being inserted immediately, it 

 will be serviceable to those persons desirous of procuring plants for 

 autumn planting.
