HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY.

The second display for the season of the prize fruits and
flowers of the Horticultural Society took place at the gardens
at Chiswick on Saturday last. The collection of fruits,
though not so large as on former occasions, was most splen-
did; all the specimens were first rate ; the collection of
flowers was remarkably fine; nothing could surpass the bril-
liancy of the colours and delicacy of the innumerable tints.
The weather was very favourable to the occasion, and the turf
and parterres of the gardens and grounds were in the highest
state of cultivation and perfection. With all these attrac-
tions, it is not to be wondered at that a perfect mob of
fashionables filled the gardens and the tents in which the
flowers and fruits were exhibited. There were present up-
wards of 7,000 visiters, amongst whom were the Duke of
Devonshire, the Earl of Derby, Earl Fitzwilliam, the Countess
of Radnor, Lord Burlington, Lord Rodney, the Marquis of
Beth, Sir W. Lemon, Sir C. Monck, Sir C. Morgan, Sir
J. Nichol], Sir W. Proctor, Sir E. Joddrell, Sir W. Fre-
mantle, Mr. Baron Gurney, Gally Knight, Esq., and a host
of persons of high rank and title ; whom, from the crowd in
which they were mixed, it was almost impossible to specify
by name. The bands of the Coldstream Guards and the
Grenadiers enlivened the scene by their performances, and
with the addition of Signor Tuccio, under whose direction
the refreshments were arranged, rendered this festival of
Pomona and Flora one of the most delightful fetes which
have enlivened the present spring. The prizes were distri-
buted in the following order :
