copied, letter for letter, from Mr. Forbes's " preface." The 

 catalogue of plants is arranged according to the system of 

 Linnaeus. We copy two or three instances, as specimens, 

 of the descriptive particulars attached to the genera and 

 species : —

These specimens are copied from the original; and we 

 have chosen them, because their subjects are doubtless known 

 to most or all of our readers. Some of the words in the last 

 column, the width of our page did not allow room for. 



Now follows the subject of the second part of the book, 

 namely, " the pleasure-ground," and the various objects of 

 interest which the pleasure-ground includes. As several of 

 these are illustrated by engravings, we will collect the titles 

 of the engravings first, and then we shall be sure not to omit 

 to mention them, which would not be just to a work whose 

 illustrations must have cost by far the greater part of the 

 expense of producing it. Plates or prints: — 1. South-west 

 view of Woburn Abbey ; a lithograph by Ross. This is the 

 frontispiece to the volume. 2. A titlepage, engraved by 

 Weddell, in which the park gate and the entrance tO the 

 park are introduced as a vignette. 3. A general plan of the 

 pleasure-ground. 4. Her Grace's flower-garden, in front of 

 the private apartments ; parterres in front of the libraries. 

 5. Parterres in front of the sculpture gallery. 6. Ground 

 plan, front elevation, and section of the green-house. 7. 

 Ground plan and section of the plant stove; ground plan 

 and section of a pinery heated by one boiler. 8. Plan, ele- 

 vation, and section of the heath house. 9. Plan of the par- 

 terre for hardy heaths. 10. The menagerie. 11. Outer en- 

 trance to the menao-erie ; inner entrance to the menagerie. 

 12. Children's gardens. 13. Drakeloc pond, the Chinese 

 temple, and evergreens. 14. Henry VII.'s cottage, at the 

 extremity of Aspley Wood. \6. Labyrinths at Aspley Wood. 

 These are the objects of which ilkistrations are given ; and 

 they are of course the subjects of particular description in 

 the annexed letter-press, in which, besides these, the follow-
