The committee express their pleasure at the very generous 

 contributions of Flowers, and only regret that the small sum 

 of money placed at their disposal, prevents them from award- 

 ing more and larger premiums and gratuities. The display is 

 unusually large, and the elegance and variety, fully equal to 

 that of any previous exhibition. 



It would be an act of injustice not to notice particularly 

 the magnificent collections of Native Flowers. Two of the 

 prominent exhibitors offer more than fifty varieties each, and 

 the others, splendid specimens of those most rare. The in- 

 telligence and industry evinced in the collection of these 

 Native Flowers is of no ordinary character, and calls for 

 high commendation. 



The taste and skill shown in the arrangement^ Bouquets 

 and Dish Flowers, also deserve notice.
