CHRYSANTHEMUM SHOW, NOV. 6 AND 7, ] 861. 



This Show closed worthily the Society's Exhibitions for the 

 year 1861. The exhibition of Chrysanthemums was very fine 

 and noteworthy from several important advances made in the 

 cultivation of this flower. The fruit exhibited was truly won- 

 derful, and although the more extraordinary specimens came 

 from sunnier climes than England, the English cultivators 

 had no reason to hide their heads. The weather on the 6 th 

 was not good, but on the Tth it was exceedingly fine ; and the 

 charge for admission on that day having been, for the first 

 time since the Garden was opened, reduced to Is., great numbers 

 flocked to the Garden.
