HoRrICULrURAL.-The exhibition of the
Horticultural Society," on Thursday last, fully
answered the anticipations of its projectors,
and more than repaid the efforts of the officers
who had the arrangements in charge. Thanks
are due to those ladies and gentlemen who so
generously contributed large variety Of
flowers, eminently enhancing the beauty of the
whole display. Letus hope that they and others
will continue to adorn the stands during the
successive weeks of summer. At the cost of
a little trouble to thems elves, they can confer
great pleasure upon those in the community
who, without the means to raise flowers for
themselves, have yet the taste and disposition
to admire them.

from the record of the secretary, with this
