It will no doubt be a source of gratification to the Members to 

 be informed that the receipts for the past year were £l 1 19. .17. .8. 

 beyond the expenses, by which means the floating debt of the 

 Society has been considerably reduced, the Bonded debt being 

 £9050., and the debt on open accounts £4224. .0.. 2., making 

 together £ 13,274. .0..2., which is a decrease upon the debt of last 

 year of £1047..12..8. 



The Auditors cannot allow this opportunity to pass without 

 noticing the great interest and amusement afforded to the Public 

 by the Exhibitions at Chiswick : a proof of which they find in 

 the constantly increasing number of Visitors. The competition 

 which is thus excited among the Exhibitors cannot fail to lead to 

 improved modes of cultivation, and thus to the direct advantage 

 of those by whose assistance the Horticultural Society is 

 maintained.
