they do not afford any index to the relative merits of each. The fol- 

 lowing method of noting them will be found more useful.

 renders them less valuable as show flowers, a dagger t ; and those 

 which have no mark prefixed have either bad bottoms, or are so in- 

 constant in their markings as not to be admissible in a best bed, and, 

 although plentiful, may be altogether discarded.
