Btcconling to the Linncean and tho Ju«sieuaean Systems; Vege- 

 table Geography; On Earths, Soils, the influence of Iiea'', and 

 other contingpncios, on vegetation follow, and witliont having 

 much rlaim to originality are rei)iete wirh inforniaiinn ; though I 

 cannot hilt regret that more stress i;.:r:t laid upon tlie assistance 

 which Mr. Loudon admits is tv be -r'.vcd by Horticidlure from 

 the researches of Chemists. Bo:tc C'. is dev ted to the imple- 

 ments and edificps usually fc.nd in G ".rdcns ; and here 

 again I have to regret that the immense variety of infor- 

 m;ition give:i is so u inecessarily split into sub-sections. 

 Book the 4'.h is on the operations of Gardening, \vh ch 

 completes the second part. Part t ^ third which contains th9 

 detail of culture necessary for each Garden Plant, Landscape 

 Gardening, Arc. and Part the fourth on the present state of 

 Ganlening in Gt. Britain are as satisfactory, as replete with 

 information, and as well arranged as can be. A most useful 

 Kali^ndarial Index ; and a copious alphabetical one complete 

 the work. 



Taken as a whole it is the most complete book of Gardening 

 ever published, for errors in dates are more casualities and 

 I should have no fault to find if the deficiency of Horticultural 

 Chemistry was less, and if the arrangement was more simple; 

 the first fault is comparatively trifling ; but the latter is of much 

 greater importance, and I should like in a future edition to 

 find it more luminous from a simplification ol its arrangement.
