DOWNING’S FRUITS AND FRUIT TREES OF 
AMERICA. 
By A. J. Downing. Newly Revised and Greatly En¬ 
larged by Clias. Downing. Svo., 1122 pages. Price $5.00. 
The original work of the late A. J. Downing appeared in 
1815. Some years after it was revised and much enlarged by 
his brother, Charles Downing, who has again completed the 
work of a second revision. Charles Downing is upon all 
hands acknowledged as one of *ur highest poinological 
authorities. He writes hut seldom, hut whatever hears his 
name is accepted as the judgment of one who is entirely dis¬ 
interested, as far as the commercial aspects of pomology are 
concerned. The present edition contains the results of many 
years’ labor and experience which have been devoted to 
testing the value of fruits and acquiring a knowledge of 
them that should benefit others. When we compare this 
edition with the modest one which first appeared, we can see 
to what extent the subject has grown. If only a small pro¬ 
portion of the new varieties that have been added prove 
valuable, we shall have reason to be proud of our progress. 
Tlii6 elegant and valuable work will be an indispensable 
requisite to every library, and to all interested in Fruits or 
Fruit Culture.
