Richmond, july 20.-The traits OF the year
are SO far in astonishing quantity. | do not
recoliect ever TO have seen so great profu
sion of cherries, apricots, pIUms and pears, as
we have already enjoyed. The prospect Of
peach and apple crop is very great. Ma
ny of the peach trees, Of the larger sorts, are
SO extremely loaded with the fruit, that the
gardeners are forced to prop up each branch !;
notwithstanding which, the smaller branches
will sometimes bend over and snap off with
the weight Of peaches. AS the fruit ripens,
jury. Our domestic spirits VIII consequently
be in large quantities. The still will pour
forth its souminous fumes Of peach and ap-
pie hrsndes and Pomona will make up for
The stint OF the two last years.-A more ma
erial article, the Indian corn, promises 10 be
a good crop. The wheat harvest is short Of
an average crop-but the quality Of the grain
j. very good. | have never seen better new
noor, than has already come TO market at this
early season OF the year. Compiler.
