2^'axinus excelsior pendula is 32 ft. high, and 15 in. in diameter: it is 

 planted in the middle of a mound, made artificially to the height of 7 ft. ; it has 

 been planted three years. It had been three or four years grafted when it was 

 moved ; being planted without any possible support at so great a height, it was 

 buried about 3 ft., in order to resist the wind ; care will be taken to remove 

 the earth when it is well rooted j and it will be uncovered by degrees. It 

 had four grafts, in the form of a cross, so that the branches cross regularly j 

 the branches exceed the body of the tree by 2 ft. in height, which is, conse- 

 quently, grafted at the height of 30 ft. There is, besides, a collection of pine- 

 apples, reported the most considerable in this country, which has been formed 

 by means of exchanges or purchases. I expect more new species in the 

 course of the year. I have a fine assortment of cactuses. I am now busy 

 in forming a complete collection by procuring from abroad the plants which I 

 cannot get here. — J. le Candele. 



The above lists prove the comparative uselessness, unless for the purpose 

 of deceiving beginners, of publishing lists of names without authorities to them ; 

 though, from knowing most of the different names given to the genera 

 Cratse^gus, ilfespilus, Pyrus, &c., in Messrs. Loddiges' collection, and in that of 

 the garden of the Horticultural Society, we think we can understand what is 

 meant by most of the names : yet still the lists, taking them altogether, are most 

 unsatisfactory. We are, however, very much obliged to M. le Candele for 

 having sent it; and we have returned the favour by making his nursery known 

 to our readers. We have written to him for dried specimens ; and, having re- 

 ceived them, we shall soon again bring the subject of his collection before the 

 public. — Cond.
