the extreme.

large silver medal, for a composition of flowers, in water co-

On presenting the reward to the youth' Pesmore, who is only
It years of age; his Royal Highness said; it gave him great plea-
sure to have again, for the third time, to present him with a token
of the approbation of the SoCioty, for his ability in that line of art
to which he had devoted himself. This was no less than the fourth
medal he had received froM his Royal Highness, and (said the
Royal' Chairman, addressing himself to the Bishop of Norwich)
