The plan of this work is good. The objects of cukivation, 

 the routine of cropping, the periods of forcing fruits* and flowers, 

 and the hot-houses employed for such purposes, are nearly the 

 same in all large gardens ; and a well-digested and accurate ac- 

 count of what is found most useful or beautiful in one, will serve 

 as a rule of practice in nearly all the others. The Duke of Bed- 

 ford's garden is one of the be&t in England, and Mr Forbes is 

 one of the most experienced gardeners ; so that a better model, 

 or a better man, could hardly be found to illustrate the most 

 efficient plans which are followed in the management of horii- 

 cultural affairs in England.— We can recommend Mr. Forbes's 

 work to our gardening friends. ' — Athenaum,
