What our fine fruits hay, spruns from.

The Peach, originally, was a poisonous almond Its deshy parts were then used to poison arrows and 1t was for this purpose introduced into Persia the transptanting and cultivation. however, no, oniy removed its poisonous qualities but produced the delicious fruit we enjoy.
 The Nectasine and Apsicoi are natural hybrida- tons between the praeh and plum.
 The Chsry was originally . berry like fruit. and cultivation hes given each berry . separate stem and improves its quality: the common maxzari is the original of most of ihs present kind of eheres
 The eommond wild Pear is even inferior to the choke pear: but stil. by cultivation t has eome te rank among our 6nest truits- The Cabbage origi. naiiy came from Germany, and is nothing more than eommoa ssa kale. Its cultivation has pro. dueed the present cabbage, and it's different &C., elimatings. the different kinds; while its hybrida. ton with other similar plants has psoduced the Cauidowsr.
 The Cboiey RaBAsr. or Cabbage Tunip. is a hyhridaiion between the cabbage and taraip, and has lately been introduced into America The Rfsssica RsDa. Brassica SaPEs. Esealsyts. Narei, and other similar vegetables have been produced by similar means.
 Celery. although so tender and She favored, is the same plant the wild celery the borders ol tbe rivers emptying ints the Chesapeake Bay; and h the nstura food of canvass back and black daeks.
 This shows The benefits ofealliyafion in the vege. table wosid. but ibe change which cultivation has sfiseted in the misd ci man is infinitely greater.
