Fruit near the Salt Water.

Some persons suppose that fruit trees in
general will not flourish we'll in the vicinity
of the ocean or salt water; and produce so good
fruit as they will in the interior. There may
be something in this, but is not the failure
near the salt water often owing to want OF
good culture, the land having become more
leteriorated than il has in the more recent set
Elements farther back in the country.
In Maine, apples will not generally do so
we'll near the salt water, as back among the
hills and mountains. 1t Is doubtless partly
owing to the soil not being so congenial to
this species of trees, and partly to its being
too cool near the ocean. This latter disad-
vantage is not experienced farthur south,
where, though cool by the sea shore, it is not
too cool. We have observed that apple trees
blossom about week later by salt water than
80 or 40 miles in the interior. In northern
climate, cool enough for fruit, this extra cold
from the ocean may be injurious.
While on Pulling Point, Chelsea, few
weeks ago, we examined with much interest
the orchard and garden of Mr.. Samuel Tewks.
berry, and were agreeably surprised to find
them in remarkably Furnishing condition,
though close to the salt water, and no forest
on the Point to protect them from the pelting
storms. He cultivates apples, pears. plums,
cherries, peaches, ounces, mulberrles, rasp-
berries, strawberries, currants and gooseber-
ries, and they are fourishing finely, excepting
that the peech trees are liable to be killed in
cold winters, as is the case in other parts OF
the country, but more so by the sea, as there
Is usually in such situations less snow to pro-
tect the roots.
We have no where seen fruit trees more
fourishing or productive, nor fairer fruit
Much is owing to high and skilful cultivation
and keeping the trees properly trimmed, and
free from insects. Mr.Tewksberry is among the
| first in his profession. He has an excellent
collection of fruit. The Baldwin, which fails
on the sea coast in Maine, is here as flourish
ing and productive as in any section of the
country. The Ribston Pippin, which in
Brighton, Newton, &c. generally fail, becom.
ing specxed and defective little while be.
fore ripening, is one of the fairest, most pro.
ductive, and valuable fruits raised by Mr..
ITewksberry, coming to perfection, and yield
ing more than the Baldwin, as it bears every
year. 1t is a fine dessert apple, and much
superior to the Baldwin for cooking. Some
intelligent housewives consider it the best oil
all apples for this purpose. May we not &C.
count for its fine condition here from the eli
mate more nearly resembling that in the place
of its origin, England :?
We saw one tree thatis a great curiosity
it never blossoms, but produces fruit in the
same manner as the fig, the apple shoots out
when very small, and begins to grow. These
apples are middling size, quality tolerable,
and the tree bears well. We examined a
number of the apples carefully, and though
there was small core, a perfect seed could
not be found.-Boston CuNirator.

The Mediterranean Wheat.-The GREAT ad

The Mediterranean Wheat.-The great adj
vantage Of this Wheat over any now used by
our farmers is becoming every year more ap-
parent. Besides its superior yield, it is safer
from the ravages of the fly and injury from
rust, by its more vigorous and rapid growth.
Mr.. Mansfield B. Brown, of Pittsburg. gives
the following account of the yield of his last
years crop. The average yield from field
of 81 acres, was 35 bushels to the acre. The
wheat weighed Ga lbs. to the bushel. From
l58 pounds which he sent to the mills, he re-
ceived 100 pounds of superfne -four. after
paying toll. IF our recollection serves US
right, the most of it was cut early, and before
it was fully ripe.

NIB. CLATS BOND TO KEEP THE PEACE"

On the 9th inst, gentleman wrote to
us from Shepherdstown, Va. asking US to
give him /" the facts in relation TO the case
Of Mr.. Clay's being under bond to keep
the peace at this time;' giving, as his rea-
son for doing so. that the wings 'of this
stronghold of federalism stoutIy deny the
fact, and offer to bet on the same We
published this letter in the Globe of the
18th inst, and said underneath 1t, edItori-
ally, as follows:
eve believe that the time has expired for
when Mr. Clay gave bonds 20 keep the peace
within this District. But it makes but little
difference, in our opinion, whether it has or
not, as 1t is not probable that he will ever Wis
it this District again.
We have since obtained duly certified
copy Of Mr.. Clay's bond, by which we
discover that we were mistaken in the O.
plnion which we then expressed, that the
time for which he was bound to keep the
peace had expired. 1t will be seen, by re-
ferring to the bond which we copy below,
that the time for which Mr.. Clay is bound
to keep the peace is not limited and,
moreover, that he is bound to keep it in
all places, and towards all persons. y
From what we have seen in the public
prints we are led to believe that he is very
angry with an OBSCURE" individual nam
ed JAMES KNOX POLK, alias, "YouNG
Hickory but we verify believe that the
chilling news and nights of November will
so cool him off that he will not attempt to
commit any violence on the body of that
''lndividual.' Some of Mr.. Clay's friends
about here appear to be little cant|n-
kerous" because the said James X. Polk
stands IN the way Of their favorite's highest
ambition but we apprehend that the pay
ing down of few "cool' thousand will
cool them off.

you know that you would only have the
battle to fight over again, and, as is always
the case with truth, must certainly prevail
in the end.

PROSPECTUS
OF THE
YPSILANTI SENTINEL.

Ia soliciting the patronage OF the public Tor
the proposed publication, it is due to that pub
lie to give an outline of the views and princi-
pies by which we shall be governed, and this
duty we proceed to discharge. While we
shall endeavor to make our sheet the channel
tor communicating to our readers, the intelli-
gence usually given in public journal, its
character will be essentially political; and &c
cording to the original sense of the term, as
applicable to this governments; strictly demo
cratic. We have lived sufficiently long, how.
ever, to learn, that names are but TOO often
llusory and deceptive, and that tine arts OF
imposters are seldom put in practice, except
under cover of some specions and imposing
appellarion. We shall not therefore rest our
claims upon a name, but invite the severest
scrutiny of our readers to the fidelity with
which our professions as an editor are main
tanned and practised.
As the only legitimate object of a republi-
can or democratic government is the equal
protection Of the rights, and promotion of the
welfare and happiness of all it follows as an
irresistible conclusion, that that adminstra.
ton, or system of easures which is most
conducive TO these ends, is best entitled to the
appellation of democratic. And as the only
true test, of the merit Of measures or admins
trations, is to be found in the effects produced
on the interests and moral character of soci-
ETY., it is by this standard alone that we snail
aim to be governed in passing judgment upon
them.
We believe the doctrines or rather the dog
mas of party as iuculcated by the leaders o
that school laying exclusive claims to democ-
racy, to be the most dangerous. because the
most insiduous enemy to the interests and in
situations of the country--that it demands of
is votaries passive obedience TO the order of
leaders. regardless of the claims of patriotism,
of county, or the constitution. Our endeav-
or shall therefore be, to expose and counteract
the dangerous aud enslaving tendency of this
doctrine, and enforce as far as in our power
lies the higher obligations OF duty to ourselves
and to our country, believing that where the
requirements of party are thus urged by its
leaders, the proceeding carries on its face the
most conclusive evidence. that it is their own
interests and not those of the country they are
laboring to promote.
We believe that the wealth, happiness and
independence of our country, depend on the
and protection OF the labor and
industry of our own citizens, and the cultiva-
ton of our own resources in all practicable
cases for the supply of our wants. in prefer
cnce to c reliance upon precarious supply,
to be drawn from abroad, subject to the cap
rice of the world and the contingencies OF Tor
eign commerce.
To this outline of our views we shall scru
pulously adhere, and with this declaration, or
fer odr sheet to the public and solicit its pat
ronage. JOHN VAN FOSSEN.
