EBITED BY P. BARKY, AUTHOR OF THE "FRUIT GARDEN." 



Toe Horticulturist, as its name implies, is devoted to Ilorticnlture and its kindred arts Enral Archi- 

 tecture and Landscape Gardening, and ■will keep its readers 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 engravings, 

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

 flower, and is one of the most beautiful a.s 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 faUea into such excellent 

 hands. — LouifmUe Journal. 



"We foci that we are doin? our readers a real service when 

 we urge them to subscribe lor this invaluable monthly. — 

 WetM]/ Democratic Press, Chicago. 



We concratulate the public on having 80 valuable a peri- 

 odical as the Horticulturist within theii- reach. — Jiow ior/,: 

 iJay Book. 



Its contents are spirited and various, the selections judi- 

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



A standard work of authority upon aT subjects discussed 

 or explained in it. — Yickshurj WMg. 



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

 cullivator of fruits. — In/iuirer, I'oHland, Me. 



It is well got up ; its articles able, various, and appropri- 

 ate. — Gen-eva Cvurier. 



Every man who has land enough for a garden should 

 possess tliis work. — We^d.sport Advertiser. 



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

 letter preas is of a highly instructive character, and embraces 

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

 ful in nature should be without such a valuable publication. 

 — Hamilton (C. W.) Speetaior. 



There is substantial profit as weJI as pleasure in cultiva- 

 ting tiisle in buildings, yards, gardens, &c., and the sub- 

 scription price would be c.ipital weU invested by those who 

 will atteiiil to the contents of the Ilorticulturist. — Daily 

 CouHer, Zanesviile, Ohio. 



Any remarks of our own we fear would add nothing in 

 comparison with the value of such a well oonductod work. 

 The plan of coloring the plates is decidedly beautiful, and 

 no person interested in horticultural pursuits sliould be 

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

 not look more to their own interests, than to allow their 

 montlily papers to be received without this indispensilile 

 accompaniment. The circulation ought to reach half a 

 million. Although the number issued is already extensive, 

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

 great merit — Dori Byrori {N. Y.) Gaeeite. 



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

 tains its former reputation under its present management. 

 Middieiury {Vi.} Jiegisier. 



We are quite sati.sfled with the work, and are inclined to 

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

 more acceptible than it was imder the charge of the accom- 

 plished Dowiiing. We recommend the work cordially to 

 the patronage of our friends and the pubUc. — Massachu- 

 ii-tts 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, IlamiUoii. 



This magazine has lost nothing by falling into the hands 

 of its present proprietor, Mr. \ ick, of Kochester ; for lie 

 maintains its neat typographical experience, while the new 

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

 ties of a high order. — dazetle, KeeseviUe, N. Y. 



The Ilorticulturist 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. Bakry, proves his emi- 

 nent fitness for the post so lately filled by the lamented 

 Downd;g. — Watch Tower, Adnan, 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. — Regiiiter and Examiner, West Chester, Pa. 



This useful monthly, instead of lasing interest as many 

 feared it would in consequence of the death of its lamented 

 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 an 

 eminently practical work, and therefore well fulfills its 

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

 trees, sluTibs, plants, or flowers, should fail to be among its 

 readers. — News aiuL Advertieer, Middletovm, Conn. 



A^' 



Tkrms — $2 per year, in advance. The volume commenced on the 1st of January last, and we

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

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

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

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

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