ON FRUITS AND FLOWERS. 



The Committee upon Fruits and Flowers would Re- 

 port : 



That the accommodations here were better than here- 

 tofore, and that the committee of arrangements execu- 

 ted their duty with good taste. The fruits exhibited 

 were excellent, and in good variety. The fruit from 

 Andrew Dodge, of Wenham, and Moses Pettingel, of 

 Topsfield as usual, consisted of a number of kinds. Ths 

 beautiful seedling peach of Mr. Emerson, of this place, 

 as well as the fine seedling apples cf Joseph How, of 

 Methuen, attracted, and deservedly too, much attention, 

 as also the fine grapes of Nathaniel Swift. The bouquets 

 of ilowers and purple eg^ plants of John Marl and, of 

 Andovcr were fine, as were also 30 varieties of dahlias
