NEW YORK AND VIRGINIA.

KendaI's Expositor contains the foil swing synop-
sis, representing the different stages OF this case
which ii may be well to bear in mind:
Certain citizens of New York stole two negro
slaves from VWgua.
The Governor of Virginia demanded of the Gov
ernor OF New York, the delivery of tho negro
thieves for trial in Virginia.
The Governor Of New York refused to deliver
them up, on the ground that stealing siape is no
crime, according 10 The la,os Of NeV York

This done by Gov, Gilmer on the 9th OF

An account or the method Of planting and
managing peach orchards, as Practsed
in New-Jersey. BY Il. Hancock, nur-
seryman, Burlington, N. J.
The peach tree is very extensively Gull
tlvated throughout New Jersey, and large
quantities Of the fruit are annually sent to
the New York and Phladclphia markets.
Since the opening Of the communication
by railroad between these two cities,
through the interior Of the State, ii has
been the means Of greatly increasing the
number Of peach orchards, and many
large and extensive plantations have been
made. Within a few years, from the IN.
creased facilities Of rapid and safe trans
poftaton by railroad, between Boston,
Providence, aud Slonington, The eastern
cities have been supplied, TO very great
extent, with New Jersey peaches, and the
opening Of such market has induced cul-
tlyators to plant more extensively, ir or
der 10 supply the demand. The crop
proves very profitable one for the light
soils Of a portion Of the State, as the trees
flourish very well where the land IS not
sufficiently good to produce but very
few bushels of corn TO the acre.
If the following remarks, in relation to
our mode of cutiyating the peach, will
interest your readers, you can give them
a place in your pages. ! have an orch
ard of some extent, and have in some sea-
sons, gathered very large crop.
When il is intended to plant out good
orchard Of trees, we generally select an
elevated position, entirely unprotected by
any timber or shelter Of any kind ifa
situation can be selected near the bank Of
river, the crop IS more certain, as the
trees better Withstand the frost, which Oc.
caslonalIy do so much damage.
Plough, and put the land in good con-
dltion for corn or vegetables, and plant
the trees twenty feet apart each way
Continue to till the land, taking off crop
ofpeas, beans, potatoes, or something that
does not grow too high; wheat, rye, and
oats are very injurious, and should not be
planted. The land must not remain with.
out tillage, as the tree: would soon be in
lured, indeed nothing will kill a fine peach
orchard sooner than to let it lie in sward.
The trees should be two years old on
the stock, (from seed, and one year from
the bud, (the year after budding.) This
is considered as the best age for trans
planting. If the water stands near the
surface of the soil, or if the land has
springs near the ground, | should not
deem il advisable TO plant with the expsc.
tation ofvery certain crops. have lost
two ORCHARDS planted in this manner,
while, in an adjoining field, where the
land, or part Of ii, was high, with a dry
sub-soil, the trees ilourished, and produc.
cd abundant crops.
Light sandy soil, or light loan, we con-
slider the most preferable for planting out
peach orchards, and should judge, that
on many of the elevated knobs, in the vi
cinity of Boston, the peach might be cul.
tivaied TO good advantage, particularly
the earlier varieties. 1t is at least well
worthy of trial.

DEAR SIR:--l very cheerfuiy add my testimony
with regard the efficacy Of DR.. Peters medicines
My wife had been for several years suffering anC
lingering under the effects of dyspepsiu, with its
usual Accomplishments, when, in December, 1885,
purchased of you one box-frcm the use (which,
her health so far restored that she deemed the
further OF it at that time unnecessary. On a
return OF some symptoms Of the disease during the
summer of 1887, she resorted TO the same remedy,
and continued it until she had taken the contents
of three boxes. Since that time she has been well
and can, without inconvenience, eat any thing that
she fancies.
From this case. and from the benefit my own
health, derived from the of single box, am
prepared to believe, that this medicine is justly ent
titled to all the credtclaimed for it by its warmes.

We have already noticed Mr.. Han
cocks nursery, and given some account Of
his peach orchard, (Vol. v, p. 800 In
the season of 1889, when we passed
through Burlington, the peach trees were
breaking down with the heavy crops. Mr..
Hancock's trees were literally loaded
and so fast did they ripen, that the ground
under nearly every tree that we noticed,
was covered with the fruit. The orch
ard contained about II acres, and was
covered with healthy trees, and the crop
was estimated at two thousand baskets
{about 1900 bushels,) which commanded
one dollar and upwards, basket in the
New York market The land was light
sandy loan, and would not produce, as
MIR. Hancock informed us, five bushels Of
corn to the acre, unless very heavily ma
nured. The ground was not planted at
all when we saw it, but il had been TILED
with the cultiyator, to keep the surface
FREQ from the growth of weeds, &c. The
trees do not make vigorous growth, and
consequently do not need but little prun-
ing. --hentucky Farmer.
