of the floriculturist, hares and rabbits, at the same time add- 

 ing greatly to their ornamental appearance. 



I have just been favored by the Messrs. Young with their 

 list of prices, at which the different descriptions of fences 

 can be furnished, ready for exportation, and subjoin for your 

 satisfaction a general quotation.
