excélfent Agricultural and Horticultural periodicals, the New York
Farmer:

‘We cannot refrain from again calling attention to a periodical
which we deem worthy ofa liberal support. It is very much on
the plan of Loudon’s Magazine ; and the editers, like Mr. Loudon,
appear to be much at home, in conducting their work.’

The following resolution was passed at a late meeting of the
New York Horticultural Society :

‘ Resolved, That the New York Horticultural Society hail with
pleasure the appearance of Hovey’s American Gardener’s Maga-
zine as a work highly creditable to the Horticultural talent of the
country, and thus the Society will subscribe to the work.’
