CAMBRIDGE FLORISTS' SOCIETY. 



The exhibition of Carnations, Picotees, and Dahlias, took place on 

 Thursday, July 23rd, in the large Assembly Room, at the Hoop Hotel. — 

 The Carnations and Picotees were finely grown and in great profusion ; the 

 Exotics, however, were not so abundant ; but, altogether, the shew was a 

 very good one. The prize stands of Carnations and Picotees were placed at 

 each end of the long range of tables which extended down the centre of the 

 room, next to which were two beautiful collections of cut flowers ; then two 

 of the finest specimens of the Humea elegans, from the Botanic Garden, 

 and an elegant plant of Nerium splendums, covered with a profusion of 

 bloom, was placed in the centre ; near which we observed Roella ciliata, 

 Anagallis monilli, Istoma axillaris, Lychnis coronato, Linaria triorni- 

 thophora, Lobelia gracilis, Hydrangea, &c. &c. all finely in bloom. Several 

 varieties of Fuchsia covered with a profusion of flowers were also dispersed 

 along the tables. A beautiful collection of Pansies ( 1 08 varieties,) and a 

 stand of fine Dahlia blooms were exhibited by Mr. Widuall— also a collec- 

 tion of fine Dahlias, belonging to Mr. Brewer, were placed on the tables for 

 exhibition. The evening shew was extremely well attended, the room being 

 rilled with a genteel ana fashionably dressed assemblage of ladies, and the 

 Cambridge military band enlivened the scene by the excellent performance 

 and variety of their music. After the ladies hud withdrawn, a very large 

 company of the members and their friends sat down and passed the remainder 

 of the evening with music and song— six members being added to the Society. 

 The following &wajd was made by the censors on this occasion ;—
