Now, in glancing over the preceding lists, will anyone even the most critical 

 and fastidious have the hardihood to assert that the Rose is not improving both in 

 variety and beauty under the hands of the cultivator ? But it must be borne in mind 

 that the improvements of the Rose in the future, as with all flowers that have been 

 long and enthusiastically cultivated, are likely to be less marked than in the past, and 

 so that they are variations or improvements, however slight, we should, in justice to 

 those who are working in this field, accept them as such with thankfulness.
