[ October 11, 1877. 



twenty vote?, Dnke of Edinburgh seventeen, Madame Victor 

 Yerdier fourteen. It is astonishing that in the first twelve 

 Roses there should be a drop so large as this, the twelfth Rose 

 failing to reach one-third the number of first-class votes. It 

 may interest "TVtld Savage" to note that, continuing this 

 test, Catherine Mermet becomes fifteenth with nine votes, 

 Dr. Andry and Eugenie Yerdier tying at one vote above her ; 

 but to look down the second twelve tried by this test it would 

 eeem that our first-class Roses are but few. Contrasted with 

 this some of the newer Roses, especially those of 1875, have 

 proportionately a far larger number of first-class votes, though, 

 probably from want of thorough trial, they have only a small 

 number in the grand total ; notably amongst these we may 

 mention Mone. E. Y. Teas with four first-class votes, Comtesse 

 de Serenyi with five, Duchesse de Yallombrosa with five first- 

 class votes out of a total of fifteen ; indeed it would seem very 

 probable that these Roses with another season would stand 

 considerably higher. 



I now add the greater number of the amateur lists, and pro- 

 pose when completing this portion to make a few remarks on 

 Roses that greatly resemble each other — a subject that has 

 already excited some comment and that the list of one of our 

 most esteemed rosarians brings again prominently forward. —
