185 psl. - A LIBRARY. When the Society originated, the great difficulty in the way of making advances in the study of Natural History, was the want of books. No one possessed more than a few volumes on some subject to which he might have given his individual attention. The importance of forming a Library was at once felt ; and most of these scattered volumes have been collected, until there are now about 1,000 volumes in the Library. Most of these have been donations, either directly, or after having been purchased...
416 psl. - ... the eye : but if we suppose a single object of a glaring white to be introduced, the whole attention. in spite of all our efforts to the contrary, will be drawn to that one point ; if many such objects be scattered about, the eye will be distracted among them.
417 psl. - ... else has retired into obscurity; it still forces itself into notice, still impudently stares you in the face. An object of a sober tint, unexpectedly gilded by the sun, is like a serious countenance suddenly lighted up by a smile; a whitened object like the eternal grin of a fool.
302 psl. - Ward's case' in principle, although different in its construction. The air that surrounded the flowen being confined beneath the bell-glass, was constantly moist with the water that rose into it in the form of vapor. As fast as the water was condensed, it ran down the sides of the bell-gia* back into the dish ; and if means had been taken to enclose the water on the outside of the bell-glass.
18 psl. - Theory and Practice of Horticulture ; or, an Attempt to explain the principal Operations of Gardening upon Physiological Grounds : Being the Second Edition of the Theory of Horticulture, much enlarged ; with 98 Woodcuts.
23 psl. - ... deciduous, begin, in fact, to cast their leaves within a few weeks after the commencement of their vernal growth : but the mass of their foliage is not rejected till late in the season. Those, on the other hand, which are named evergreens, part with their leaves much more slowly...
186 psl. - ... was at once felt ; and most of these scattered volumes have been collected, until there are now about 1,000 volumes in the Library. Most of these have been donations, either directly, or after having been purchased by private subscription, nothing being drawn from the general fund of the Society. It is gratifying to be able to record the liberal donations of Charles Amory, Esq., BD Greene, Esq., of the Hon. John Davis, who contributed fifty-two volumes of standard works on Natural History, most...
193 psl. - ... he not only has fully accomplished this task, but has also been successful in all the requisites of this garden. The connoisseur, however, does not see the usual ornamental plants in this sea of flowers, but a great many rarities; and, in short, here, as in every part of the grounds, the aesthetic taste of the baron is paramount. Beautiful is this garden within a garden, and hence it has become the model garden of Austria. Here the most beautiful landscape opens on the view; the gently swelling...
144 psl. - The orchardist's companion; a quarterly journal devoted to the history, character, properties, modes of cultivation, and all other matters appertaining to the fruits of the United States, v.
22 psl. - In the course of time, a leaf becomes incapable of performing its functions; its passages are choked up by the deposit of sedimentary matter ; there is no longer a free communication between its parenchyma and that of the rind, or between its veins and the wood and liber.
