Horticultural Register And Gardeners Magazine

Excerpt from The Horticultural Register and Gardener's Magazine, Vol. 1: January 1, 1835 Cultivators, generally speaking, in this country, do not seem to be aware of the importance of cultivating the best varieties of fruit. They generally consider the article as a mere luxury, and, therefore, give but little attention to its culture. But though fruit is not indis pensable to the support of human existence, and life may be sustained on aliment less palatable and less wholesome, it is, nevertheless, a very useful article, and one of the best' gifts of Providence to the human being.

Excerpt from Horticultural Register, and Gardener's Magazine, 1839, Vol. 4 With the desire to gratify our readers we shall give some of the reasons, which, to our mind appear the most conclusive. It is gen erally admitted I believe, that they belong to the royal family, and that their ancestors once wielded the sceptre upon the throne of China, and indeed there is every thing in their appearance to sub stentiate this belief. The present Emperor is a descendant of the Tartar race. It would not require a very excursive imagination to conclude that as they did not belong to the present dynasty, some jealousies might have arisen from the fact that they were of that race that once controlled the destinies of that mighty empire, and which was now governed by a foreign power. Again, there might have been those that still retained all their former attachment to the rem nant of that noble house which, no doubt, excited the jealousies of the reigning powers and rendered their situation very unpleasant, and would be deemed a sufficient reason for leaving their native country, as others have done before them. Still there are those that have asked why, as they were so pleasantly situated in Europe, they should have thought of coming to this country. To this and simi lar questions we can only give some of our own conjectures, never having conversed with them upon this subject. We may suppose for instance, that they might have had a predilection in favor ofour own republican form of government and its free institutions, and that they would meet with that kindness and attention which true merit ever receives from an educated and enlightened community. Others might have come to the resolution that a friend of ours did, that they would not live in a country where they were obliged to pay for that free and common gift to all, the light of heaven. Whether these conjectures will satisfy the curiosity of our readers. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
