RECENT PUBLICATIONS.

''The Rose," by H. B. Ellwanger, is the work of writer who has 8 thorough knowl- edge of his subject The amateur rose grower will find here, in small space, great amount of useful information. On the vexed question of the classification of roses, Mr EIlwanger takes very sensible views. The grouping found in the catalogues of nursery men is becoming too complex for the average brain, and it is high time that the compli- cated divisions and subdivisions with which many rosarians delight to perplex mankind should be reduced to something like sim plicity. The chapter on typical roses is excel lent. The description of varieties in the latter part of the volume is as good as can be found. Published by Dodd, Mead & Co.,, New York, and for sale in this city by Judd the bookseller.
 Summer Gleanings," ," by Rose Porter, is a unique volume. It is handsomely bound. The pages run from June first to August thirty y-frst. At the head of each page is 8 poetic quotation, and the rest of the page is fit to put it to. The quotations are made with excellent taste. Published by White & Stokes, New York, and for sale in this city by F. T. Jarman.
 The first complete volume of the Century Mdgazine is out and includes the monthly numbers from November, 1881, to April, 1882, both inclusive. It is a very handsome volume, and contains nearly one hundred pages of matter more than Scri5ner's. The binding is unique and original. On the cov- CTS within, the figures which grace the suo- cessive monthly numbers of the magazine are printed in brown on paper of low-toned gray, dotted with gilt, and are surrounded with emblematic designs and notices and borders of convoluted lines. glance through the table of contents of the volume shows to what an extent the current maga- zine literature has become the best literature ol the day.
