We do not know why Boston should be ashamed of the term gardener, but then even in ancient Athens, the people delighted to run after some new thing. However, in modern Athens the city gardener is called the " City Forester," a position filled very acceptably by Mr. Wm. Doogue during the past six years. The flower gardening is described by a Boston paper before us as absolutely superb. For the care of the city gardens and parks, Boston appropriated last year $60,000. Only first-class laborers are employed, the poor tools being cast aside after a short trial, and the best get $2 per day. The abilities of Mr. Doogue are highly spoken of by the Boston paper.
