THE DINNER. 



At five o'clock the members and friends of the Society partook of a 

 sumptuous dinner at the Queen's Head. John Hodgson, Esq., M.P., 

 (who has tilled the oflice of President for the last year,) was in the chair. 

 The entrance to the inn was profusely decorated with flowers and ever- 

 greens ; and the room was tastefully ornamented with festoons of 

 flowers and elegant bouquets. The proceedings were of the most grati- 

 fying description. 



Upwards of forty gentlemen sat down to dinner. In the vicinage of 

 the chair we observed Mr. Mayor, W. Loraine, Esq., James Losh, Esq., 

 — Ross, Esq., &c. 



Among the strangers were two gentlemen from the Lynn Horticultural 

 Society, who expressed themselves very highly gratilicd by the splendid 

 show of fruits and flowers they had that day witnessed, and the hospi- 

 tality of which they luid partaken. They also furnished .some useful 

 hints for the future government of the Society. 



But far the most important portion of the evening's proceedings, was 

 an announcement by the Right Worshipful the Ma>or, of his intended 

 application to the Corporation of Newcastle for permission that the 

 garden and Held of which the Mayor for tlie time being has the use, 

 might be converted into a Botanical Garden, under the auspices ol' the 

 Society. His Worship expressed himself liighly favourable to this pro- 

 ject, which, if accomplished, cannot fail to ])rove of the greatest benelit 

 to the science of Botany and Horticulture in that district.
