EDITED BY P. BAREY, AUTHOE OF THE "FEXJIT GAEDEN." 



Tiis Horticulturist, as its name implies, is devoted to Horticulture and its kindred arts Rural Archi- 

 tecture and Landscape Gardening, and will keep its readera advised of every thing new on the 

 subject, either in Europe or America. It is a Monthly Journal of forty-eight pages, beautifully 

 printed on the finest paper and elegantly illustrated. In addition to numerous wood eagravings, 

 each number contains a full page engraving on stone, of some new, rare, and valuable fruit or 

 flower, and is one of tlie most beautiful as well as the most useful Monthly Journals published in the 

 world. We subjoin a few notices by the press, showing the estimation in which the work is held 

 by our editorial brethren : 



"We are glad the work has fallen into such excellent 

 hands. — LouMoiUe Jaitvnai. 



We fLH?l that wc are doing our readers a real Borvice when 

 we urge them to subscribe for this invaluable monthly. — 

 Weekly Democratic Press, Chicago. 



We congratulate the public on having so valuable a peri- 

 odical as the Horticulturist within their reach. — Ncno York 

 Dmj Book. 



Its contents are spirited and various, the selections jadi- 

 cious, the illustrations elaborate. — New York Daily Tiinen. 



A standard work of authority upon aT subjects discussed 

 or explained in it. — Vi<:k.sburj WMg. 



There is no work in this country of greater ralue to the 

 cullivator of fruit.s. — Inquirer, Doriland, Me.

 ate. — Gcnsva Ovicrier. 



Every man who has land enough for a garden should 

 possess tills work. — Weediport Advertiser. 



The plates alone are worth the year's subscription. The 

 letter press is of a highly instructive character, and embraces 

 a variety of topics. None who have a taste for the beauti- 

 ful in nature should l>e without such a valuable publication. 

 — RcmMioii {C. W.) Sped^itor. 



There is substantial profit as well as pleasure in cultiva- 

 ting taste in buildings, yards, gardens, Ac, and the sub- 

 scription price woul<l be capital well invested by those who 

 will attend to the contents of the Horticulturist. — Daily 

 Courier, Zanescfille, Ohio. 



Any remarks of our own we fear would add nothing in 

 comparison with the value of such a well oonduelod work. 

 The plan of coloring the plates is decidedly beautiful, and 

 no person interested in horticultural pursuits should be 

 without it. It seems a wonder to us that horticulturists do 

 not look more to their own interest-s, than to allow their 

 monthly papers to be received without this indispensible 

 accompaniment. The circulation ought to reach half a 

 million. Although the number i-ssued is already extensive, 

 yet it should be increased, from the fact that it ia a work of 

 great merit. — Port Byron, {N. T.) Gazette. 



This periodical is got up In excellent style, and well sus- 

 tains its former reputation under its present management. 

 M iddlebunj ( Vt.) lieffist&r. 



We are quite satisfied with the work, and are inclined to 

 believe that, to Oie mass of readers, the work will be even 

 more acceptible than it was under the charge of Uie accom- 

 plished Downing. We recommend the work cordially to 

 Uie patronage ol our friends and the puhlic.—Jfaasachv- 

 tetis Spy. 



Its contents embrace a variety of subjects, treated upon 

 in the most scientific manner. The illustrations are numer- 

 ous and well executed. We know of no other work of the 

 kind on this continent that can compare with the Horticul- 

 turist. — Daily Spectator, Ilamilton. 



This magazine has lost nothing by falling into the hands 

 of its present proprietor, Mr. Viok, of Kochester; for he 

 maintains its neat typographical experience, while the new 

 editor, Mr. Barky brings to its editorial management abili- 

 ties of a high order. — Gazette, Eeeseville, N. Y. 



The Horticulturist is almost invaluable to the fruit grower, 

 and to the gardener, and it ought to be in the hands of 

 every one. The new editor, Mr. Barry, proves his emi- 

 nent fitness for the post so lately filled by the lamented 

 Downing. — Watch Toicer, Adrian, Mich. 



This publication embraces a wide field, and has some- 

 thing instructive for every reader. Its artistical embellish- 

 ments and mechanical execution are of the highest order; 

 for this we give credit to the publisher. Its editorials are 

 practical, scientific, varied, and instructive. Its corres- 

 pondence embraces some of the ablest horticultural writers 

 in the Union. — liegiiiier aitd £cca7ni7ier. West Chester, I'a. 



This useful monthly, instead of losing interest as many 

 feared it would in consequence of the death of it-s lamcnied 

 proprietor and editor, Mr. Downing, continues to fully 

 maintain its reputation. In fact the present editor and 

 and publisher appear to be using their best endeavors to 

 raise it higher in public estimation than before. It is ah 

 eminently'practical work, and therefore well fulfills its 

 promises. No one who has anytliing to do with gardens, . 

 trees, shrubs, plants, or flower.s, should fail to be among its 

 readers.— A'»ie« and Advertiser, Middletown, Conn. 



Tkrms — $2 per year, in advance. The volume commenced on the Ist of January last, and wo 

 can supply back numbers from that time. Those who prefer can commence with the (half year) 

 July number. 



Colored Plates. — Still further to add to the value of the work, and meet the improving taste 

 and increasing wants of the horticultural comrauuity, an edition is published with COLORED 

 PLATIiS, each number containing a full page engraving of some new, rare, and valuable fruit or 

 flower, correctly colored from nature by the best living artiste in this line. This is a new and 

 important feature, in this country. Price $4 a year, in advance.
