— Joseph Hinton, Warmitister, 



I THINK that many readers of " our Journal" will beansions, 

 like myself, to thank Mr. Hinton for the treat he has been 

 giving us during the last fortnight. The trouble he has taken 

 must be immense, and it is pleasant to congratulate him on 

 complete success. 



lu reading over the amateurs' lists I must confess to an 

 individual feeling of work somewhat imperfect. " Were things 

 to be done over again all would be wise." If my list were to 

 write again, dear old General Jacqueminot, Reynolds Hole, 

 Devoniensis, and Boule de Neige would not be omitted ; Ma- 

 dame Lacharme's place would be greatly endangered, and 

 Captain Christy must have come in. But I have felt the 

 difficulty strongly, which Mr. Hinton rather raises, What ia a 

 best Rose? I incline to think that, if asked to name twenty- 

 four of the best exhibition, the best garden, and the best good 

 all-round Roses, we should most of us give in three different 

 lists ; at any rate in the two former there would be consider- 

 able divergence. It is with great grief I see Charles Lefebvre 

 displaced from the premier Rose throne, nor can I quite 

 acquiesce in the sentence. I venture also to think that Ches-
