print, with eminent Editorship, at the lowest possible price.
It will require a sale of Fourteen Thousand copies to defray
the expense which has been incurred in the preparation of
these beautiful editions of the Sacred Scriptures; and the
Publisher depends on a liberal and enlightened public to
assist him in an object which must be interesting to the
whole religious community.

TO ALL WHO HAVE CONSERVATORIES, GREEN-

Saturday, January 7, will be published, price Sixpence,

THE FIRST NUMBER FOR 1843 OF
THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE;
a Weekly Record of Rural Economy and General News.
THE HORTICULTURAL PART EDITED BY
PROFESSOR LINDLEY.
Such has been the success of " THE GARDENERS'
CHRONICLE" that it has already a sale far beyond any
contemporary of a like character—a sale which has gone on
progressively increasing from the commencement. This
fact, gratifying as it is from the Proprietors, will only stimu-
late them to further exertions ; AND THEY, THEREFORE,
MERELY REFER TO THE PAST AS AN EARNEST OF THE
FUTURE, and announce for the information of the public
generally the nature of the Publication.
THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE is, in the first place, a
weekly record of everything that bears upon Horticulture,
Floriculture, Arboriculture, or Garden Botany, and such
Natural History as has relation to Gardening, with Notices
and Criticisms of all works of importance on such subjects.
Connected with this part are WEEKLY CALENDARS
OF GARDENING OPERATIONS given in great detail,
and adapted to the objects of persons in every station of life ;
so that the Cottager with a few rods of ground before his
door, the Amateur who has only a greenhouse, and the Ma-
nager of extensive gardens, are alike informed each week of
the routine of operations which the varying seasons render
necessary. It moreover contains very extensive Foreign and
Domestic Correspondence upon Horticultural subjects--
Reports of Horticultural Exhibitions arid Proceedings at
home and abroad—Notices of Novelties and Improvements—
in short, everything that can tend to advance the profession,
benefit the condition of the workman, or conduce to the
pleasure of his employer, all accompanied with Woodcuts,
whenever the matter treated of requires that mode of illus-
tration. Replies to all questions connected with the object
of the Paper are also given weekly in great detail. And al-
though the Paper is not, strictly speaking, an Agricultural
Journal, yet it contains full Reports of the Proceedings of
the Royal Agricultural Society, and much valuable informa-
tion upon the more interesting subjects of discussion in
this branch of inquiry.
IN THE SECOND PLACE, that description of domestic and
political News is introduced which is usually found in a
Weekly Newspaper. It is unnecessary to dwell on this head
further than to say, that the Proprietors do not range them-
selves under the banners of any party; their earnest endea-
vours are to make THE GARDENERS' CHRONICLE a frill and
comprehensive Record of Facts only—a Newspaper in the
true sense of the word—leaving the reader to form his own
conclusion and opinions : their object being the elucidation
and discussion of the laws of Nature, not of man. The
reader is thus furnished, IN ADDITION TO THE PECULIAR
FEATURE OF THE JOURNAL, with such a variety of informa-
tion concerning the events of the day, as supersedes the ne-
cessity of his providing himself with any other Weekly
London Paper.
Each year commences a new Volume, and is complete in
itself.

A Prospectus, with List of Contributors, may he had on
application, or by letter, at the Office, 3, Charles-street,
Covent-garden, London.
Parties intending to commence with the New Volume had
better give their orders at once to any Newsvendor.
