All letters of inquiries, or applications for catalogues, to receive attention, should enclose a postage stamp. (t= All orders for plants, from unknown correspondents, must be accompanied with a draft on Boston or New York, for the amount.

During the Summer, an unrivalled collection of Ponies, Phloxes, Verbenas, &c.,—and in September, a magnificent collection of Dahlias and Japan Lilies.
