THE FLORIST. 
North. Here we were unfortunately unable to agree in the decision, 
the flowers being small and under-grown, and Ada, Masterpiece, and 
Pilot, alone possessing special claim, in our opinion, on the score of 
marking. The flowers in the second stand, shown by Mr. S. Barlow, 
we thought decidedly superior. They consisted of fine specimens of 
Sovereign, Aglaia, Bacchus, Polyphemus, Heroine, and Maid of Orleans, 
Mr. Forman, of Chellaston, was third. The varieties were Pilot, 
Sovereign, Princess Royal, Maid of Orleans, Triomphe Royale, and 
Heroine. The fourth prize was awarded to Mr. R. Nunnerley, of 
Macclesfield, who showed six clean and pretty but small flowers, they 
were Charles X., Pilot, Violet Amiable, Bacchus, Heroine, and Aglaia.
