The Market. 

 A thankful Thanksgiving is remem- 

 bered by the florists, as business was 

 unusually fine. A complete clean-up 

 was experienced by most of the florists, 

 making a scarcity of stock the day 

 after Thanksgiving. Narcissi are ar- 

 riving in large quantities, as the flo- 

 rirts planted more than usual. Good 

 violets continue scarce. Fine cycla- 

 mens aM beginning to come to the 

 market. Azaleas are good, but high 

 pricea. Various Notes.
