cent, and much in advance of former years,
in size and perfection of fruit The garden

ally by several contributors. AT 2 o'clock the
company sat down to a generous dinner, pre-
pared by d. f. Parmenter, Esq, which SEEM
ed to be well fitted to the capacity of those
who tasted it, and gave universal satisfaction
