Professor Lindley s Lectures. — In continuation of these, we give the 

 notes taken of the second and third lectures ; and shall give those of the 

 remaining three in our next Number. In the meantime, as Mr. Lindley 

 has published the essence of these lectures in a two-shilling tract, entitled 

 Outlines of the First Principles of Horticulture, fyc, we strongly recommend 

 that work to our readers, and more especially to every young gardener. 

 There can be no doubt of this, that even the very best practical gardeners 

 might be rendered still better, by receiving a fresh infusion of science, to 

 neutralise the prejudices engendered by a long course of empirical practice. 

 There is no man in Britain so able to effect this object as Mr. Lindley ; 

 and we sincerely hope he may persevere in this new line which he has 

 chalked out for himself, confident that success and great public good will 

 be the result.
