It is the foundation of civilization, of science, and [ the arts, inasmuch as all are dependant on it for the means of subsistence. ' NV'hatever has a tpnJency to improve any department of this branch of industry^ is a public benefit. An enlightened spirit of enquiry is now in operation, which aided by the light of science, and previous experiments and discoveries, has ad- vanced Horticulture, Floriculture, and Pomology to a hi^h and prominent position. In the more wiejul department?, many new, and valuable varieties of fruit hava recently been added ; while as regards the ornamental, the Pleasure GroiiHd, Shrubbery, and Fiowdr Garden, are being yearlv enriched with new and splendid specimens. r In presenting to the public a new edition of a descriptive Catalogue, the Proprietor of the Toronto ^ursery trtkesthe ijppoftunity of acknowledging that his efforts to keep h is Establishment up to the requirements oi the times have been duly appreciated. This is evident from the greatly increased, and steadily increas;n^g demand lor hU productions, from all parts ot the United Provinces. It is highly gratifying to him, to receivo so many assurances that the articles sent from here prove satisfactory, and are almost invariably suecessfuHy transplanted. He will continue to persevere in endeavouring to mantain this, the largest, the most correct and complete in the Canadas. To effect this, the grounds have recently been considerably enlarged ; their extent is now Skvesty Acres, and the general favorable result attending Nur- sery productions sent from here, proves that the ground is entirely .suitable for the purpose. For the last few years, a regular correspondence has heen held with some of the principal Nurseries in Great Britain and the United iSiates. The leadings Horticultural Periodicals of the day are carefully consulted ; and no pains are spared toadd to the Stock all acquisitions of merit ; ihese are procured only from Nurseries of high Ptandinor and reputation, and can be fully relied on. Ornamental deciduous and evergreen trees have lately been much in request, and this demand is likely not only to continue, but greatly to increase. To keep the assortment as extensive and varied as possible, importations of seed- lings are yearly made from England, exclusive of what are raised here. It ie thought that in the ornamental department, the Toronto Nursery will bear a favourable comparison with similar enublishments anywhere else, in all trees and shrubs proper for the climate. In the Fruit Tree department, great care is exercised to ensure correctness of sorts, fcjpeciiiirin Trees of fully tlirce-fourths of all the different kinds grown, are in a bearing state on the grounds. Means are taken to have all new varieties tested as soon as possible. 'J'hus, the merits of every sort is readily ascertained, every thing inferior rejected, and great accuracy secured, in having the varieties in cultivation true to name. FiSpecial attention has been for some years bestowed on the culture of Dwarf Pears. They possoss certain advantages over Standards, which, for some time at least, they arc likely almost to supersede. They may be planted at the distance of ten feel apart ; they come into boiiring the same, or following year in •d» tliey May coSfiJgn^lfvSy^ ^ **J Summer, Pall, necti prove .ati.ftctwy/ ^ ""^ ^*^'"«f •"'^^ »» GEORGE LteSLIE. f#l»miiy, it5s.

Manv trees, nide'y thrust into the ground, if they do Survive, struggle seveiai years against their adverse condition, before they recover. The following brief directions should be chrei'uHy attended to,— 1. Dig the hole large enough to receive the roots entirtr, easily and without bending. a. {"lire smooth, on the under side Ivith a sharp knife, all bruised and broken parts of the roots. 8. Let one person hold the tree it^ri|iht in the hole, whilst another is filling m the soil. The surface soil made fine, should be first put in, carefully spreading out with the hand every root and fibre, thut each may meet the soil, and shaking the tree gently, so that no vacancies or crevices are left. 4. The hole being filled, press the soil «ently but firmlv with the foot : and the tree thus planted should stand about one inch deeper than it did in the NurHPry. 5 . Put kround each tree on the surface, to the extent of a foot or more, a depth of five or SIX inchea of long manure, after the w -^ are planted. v% ^"^'^ weather, in Spring, it maybe nee ssary to throw a pail of water in the hold when half filled, allowmg the water to settle before filling it up. For some years keep the ground, a little way round each tree, loose and free from grass. No cattle must be allowed in the enclosure until the trees are large.

To promote the health, vigour, and Iruitfulness of the trees, attention must be given to the following points: ;u , j 1 Keep the ground around the trees clean and mellow, giving an occasiona dressing of wood ashes. 2 The heads should be low, not branching higher than 2J or 3 feet. 3 Every April, cat back and shorten the shoots of the previous years growth, weak shoots one half, strong ones one third their length.

'Jhey should be covered to the depth of 4 inches, leaving the bed when finished fi or 6 inches higher than the adjacent ground. SuBSRQUBNT Management. — A correspondent of Downlng's " Horticultu- Tjst," says, " as poon as frost has blackened the Asparagas tops, (say Nov. Ist,) cut all the steins level with the surface. Let them lie a few days to dry ; burn them to ashes, and spread the ashes over the suiface ; cover the bed with a few inches of fresh stable manure, mixed, where practicable, with a small proportion of hen dnng." In spring, let this covering be forked in, after which spread on tiie surface one eighth ol an inch of coarse salt. By this method, strong, stout, tender stalks are produced, early in the season, rivalling in thickness an ordinary hoe handle ! Cutting : — The usual practice is to cut the young shoots 2 inches under the surface of the ground, after they have pushed an inch or two above it. This is an error, let them he cut when they have grown 4 or 5 inches above ground. Then they are green, tender, and will literally melt in the mouth. RHUBARB.
