72 Catalogue of Works 



(Triticum repens), without the aid of Naked Fallow, as prac- 

 tised by Mr. R. Dickson, of Kidbrook, Blackheath." We 

 have noticed the spirited exertions of this gentleman before 

 (Gard. Mag. vol. i. p. 88.), and have only to conclude by 

 recommending, not only the Essay on Weeds on its own 

 account, but because " all the profits go to the benefit of the 

 author's widow and family."

This is a very superior work, and as it contains only hardy plants, and 

 such as every one who has a garden may introduce into his flower border, 

 we are surprised it is not more generally known. Besides, where there 

 are young people learning to draw flowers, it will serve as a perpetual 

 copy-book. We wish Mr. S. would combine hardy ornamental trees and 

 shrubs ; he might then call his work the British Flower Garden and Shrub- 

 bery, and it would supply what has long been a desideratum in Garden 

 Botany.
