FLOWERS.
The display of flowers by the gardeners of
the different Fairbanks families of st. Johns

certainly, mt the New England Fair. The
cut flowers shown by Jas. Hamilton were
most tastefully arranged, the magnificent
bouquets Of Walter Ingraham and Alfred Par

arrangement, and the rich assortment of pot
plants, embracing all the popular and many
of the rarer Towering and ornamental leaved
species, made up II whole that we think could
not be equallcd this side of New York OF
Boston.
