958 MONTHLY SUMMARY. 
A Rose Show is always a favourite, and Уа day being fine, it ue 
out very large number of fashionable visitor 
No new roses of very startling merit e to dispute the pre- 
eminence of old favourites, лета) Jaequeminot, — Vaisse, and 
the Géant des Batailles, were still facile principes among the scarlets. 
Charles Lefevre was in great beauty; so were Charles poen Coupe 
4’ Hébé, and other representatives of the old Provence rose. Many of the tea 
roses were very fine, more especially Souvenir d'un Ami, Souvenir d Elise, 
and Devoniensis drew particular attention. 
A most interesting feature in this exhibition was a large number of the 
new silk worms, feeding upon the plants of the Ailanthus glandulosa, 
sent by Lady Dorothy Nevill. They had not reached their full beauty, 
being still in the green state, but their healthy condition,an d the practical 
exemplification of the proper mode of treating them, and its ease and 
simplicity, were of much value.
