CORRESPONDENCE.
PRIZE VEGETABLE SEEDS. To the Editor of the "CHINA MAIL" Hongkong, Oct. 8, 1877. BI-Baring observed a short article in your issue of Saturday referring to a certi ficate issued by a London seedsman, which on the face of it appears to be valueless, permit me to explain the circumstance. A friend of mine at Macao was in the habit of ordering my seeds, together with his own, and the London firm made the mistake of attributing to his seeds in Macao the successful results which had attended my cultivation in Hongkong. The testimonial quoted in your article was written by me, while my Macao friend was in Europe. Hence the apparent valuelessness to which you alluded.
Yours etc.,
