A meeting of the Park Street market 

 will be called shortly by the directors, 

 when a vote on the liquidation of the 

 present corporation will take place. The 

 corporation is at present in a strong 

 financial condition and has a balance of 

 $7,000, the greatest part of which will be 

 subscribed toward the new enterprise. 

 This shows what cooperation and con- 

 servative management will do and is a 

 ;jood augury for future success.

 ust 26.

 one of the worst droughts experienced in

 for the last six or seven weeks. Those 

 who have their carnations housed report 

 them in good condition.
