The Annual Meeting of the Horticultural Society Of the Valley of the Genesee was held at the Court House, Rochester, on the 4th of February. P. Barry, Chairman of the Fruit Committee, being called upon for a report, stated that:

A box of fruits, containing upwards of ninety varieties of Pears, twenty-seven of Apples, and three of Quinces, was received from M. Andre Le Roy, of Angers, France, by Ellwanger & Barry, on the 9th of November. The greater portion of the fruits were in an advanced state of decay, and therefore not in a fit condition for public display; but the Secretary was requested to notify the Fruit Committee and such other members of the Society as he knew most interested in pomology, of the arrival of the fruits, and where they might be seen. The fruits had been carefully packed, and having met with no unusual delay on the journey, would doubtless have arrived here in good condition but for the unfortunate mistake of sending among them a few early autumn sorts that must have decayed.

Of the varieties of Pears known and tested here, were fine specimens of Bezy Sanspareil, Beurre d'Aremberg, (Uvedale's St. Germain, Beurre ClairgeaU, Easter Beurre, Catillac, Glout Morceau, Beurre Diel, Van Mons Leon le Clere, Vicar of Winkfleld, Beurre gris d'hlver, St Germain, Suzette de Bavay, Soldat Laboreur, Triomphe de Jodoigne, Winter Nells, Colmar des Invalldes, Princes St Germain, Doyenne d'Alencon, Doyenne Goubault, Grand Soleil, Colmar d'Aremberg, Doyenne Sleulle, and Doyenne DIllen.

Of new varieties, or such as are not known here to any extent, there were fine specimens of Grand Mogul; St Jean Baptiste - a very beantiful fruit, with a red cheek - apparently a good keeper; Cadet de Vaux; Bergamot d'Esperin; Des Chasseurs; Gros Colmar; Beurre Bolwiller - a handsome fruit, and apparently a good keeper; Bezy tardif; Mensuette double; Francreal d'hiver; Tonneau; Tarquin; Jalousie tardive; Royal d'hiver; Angelique de Bordeaux; Franchipane; Tavernier de Boulogne - a handsome, peculiarly formed Pear, and a good keeper.

Of the Apples remaining sound there were good specimens of the following: - Reinette d'Espagne - a very large and beautiful fruit, resembling our Fall Pippin. White Calville. Bed Calville. Alfriston - a large, conical, ribbed, irregular fruit; pale yellow, with a network of white; resembling.the Gloria Mundi Pigeonnet de Ronen - a conical, striped Apple, like a Gilliflower. Rousseau Brisset - has much the appearance of Roxbury Russet Pomme de femme - a handsome Apple, like a Maiden's Blush. Dominica - a beautiful, waxy lemon-yellow Apple; flat; resembling a ripe Yellow Harvest Rosa - a roundish, irregular shaped Apple; greenish-yellow, striped; similar in color and somewhat in shape to the Minister. Fenouillet gros - a roundish, russet Apple, resembling the Bourassa; rough skin. Relnette Parmentier - a roundish-oblong Apple; smooth; pale russet.

The Committee recommend that a Diploma and the thanks of the Society be presented to M. Lb Roy, for his valuable collection of fruits.

On motion, it was unanimously Resohed, That the thanks of this Society, with a Diploma, be presented to M. Lx Rot, for the fine collection of fruit he so kindly sent us.
