The Tropical Agriculturist, a practical treatise on the cul- 

 tivation and management of various productions suited to 

 tropical climates, by George Richardson Porter, has been

 planters, colonists, settlers, and others interested in the pro- 

 ducts of tropical climates. The work is in one volume 8vo, 

 and is illustrated by 45 botanical plates : its price a guinea.

 quay, and sold by her in volumes, each including specimens

Mr. Donald, of the Goldworth Nursery, near Ripley, Surrey, 

 has just issued a sale catalogue of the contents of his rich 

 arboretum, and of " a select collection of hardy perennial 

 herbaceous plants." The catalogue occupies three pages ofa 

 large sheet, to be sent by post, and includes, owing to the 

 minute type employed, a surprising store of species and va- 

 rieties, especially of trees and shrubs. We have never seen 

 so accurate a catalogue as this. 



A Catalogue of Flo'wer Roots, Plants, 8fc., grown, in 1833, 

 by the Rev. J. Tyso and Son, Wallingford, Berks, has been 

 sent us. It is well arranged and richly furnished. We called 

 on Mr. Tyso, when passing through Wallingford, some weeks 

 ago, and find that he intends, in a short time, to give up his 

 pursuits as a commercial florist to his son, and to confine 

 himself in future to amateurship and his clerical duties. 



A Selection from the general Catalogue of Hardy Ornamental 

 Trees, Shrubs, and Uerhaceous Plants, has been just published 

 by Messrs. Buchanan and Co., of Camberwell. " As an as- 

 sistance to those who may wish to form a small but select col- 

 lection, the most desirable and distinct species of each genus 

 are marked with a *, and those possessing superior individual 

 excellence with a f . The prices appended are for good plants 

 that will make an immediate display."
