The Show at the Horticultural Society's Gardens, on Saturday the 7th inst., 

 went off", as the phrase is, in the most desirable manner, nearly 3000 persons 

 being present. So great was the crowd round the stage on which the flowers 

 and fruits were exhibited, that we could not get sufficiently near to do equal 

 justice to all the exhibitors ; and, therefore, we prefer simply giving a list of 

 the prizes, and of the names of the persons to whom they were given. We 

 have since been informed, that all inconvenience of this kind will be obviated.
