The AMERICAN HORSES IN ENoLAND'-by
the English papers Just received, we learn that
the American horse Babylon, who was entered
for the great Yorkshire Handicap, did not
start, being struck out for that race, as well as
Prioress the American racer, for the Doncaster
plate. Prior and Prioress have accepted the
weights placed upon them for the CESAR,
which stakes, 21-4 miles, the latter having only
SO lbs, and the former ito lbs. to carry. In
the Cambridgeshire stakes, Prioress carrying
81 lbs. and Babylon 81 lbs, have accepted )
and with the very favorable weights now plsc-
ed upon them, they ought certainly TO redeem
the high reputation which they enjoyed In this
| country, but forfeited by their disgraceful de-
feats in England

Peach BuDDING.--In your issue Tor August
18th, notice communication headed, ssHow
to Bud the Peach" The writer Of that article
''R. S." says: "My time for budding, is from
the Goth of September to the middle of Octo-
ber." To this urge no particular objection,
although am satisfied, that to fix thus define
ly upon particular few days is unsafe 1t is
well known to arborculturists that trees grow
much later some seasons than others, and while
the peach tree Is in active, vigorous growth, it
is unsafe TO bud, because the exudation of the
gum from the stock destroys the set. l have
now some four hundred stocks which | intend
to bud this season, and have not yet set bud,
nord intend doing so, until the wet weather
ceases, and tho growth of tho stocks measure
bly, subsidies. l shall then set at least two buds
In each stock, without removing the wood from
single bud. | have, for years, tried both
methods, and give decided, preference to
those buds from which the wood is not taken.
In attempting TO remove the wood, the root OF
the bud is frequently injured, sometimes des-
troyed, and the bud adheres to the stock no
sooner nor more firmly than when the wood is
not taken out besides, the removal renders
the process much more tedious. had intend
ed to say something in this upon the subject
of grating the peach, but will defer 1t at pre-
sent.--DOliar Newspaper.

UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT REcEIpTs..-
The receipts into the United States Treasury
from the st OF July to the 9th OF Septem-
Der, amounted to S2O, 49,, 1853. The Washing
ton correspondent Of the New York Courier
says:
This sum exceeds by about one million of
dollars the receipts for the same quarter of
1856. What is remarkable in this exhibit is
that the average OF weekly receipts which
through the month Of July ranged above two
millions, declined to less than million. Nor
does this exhibit the entire decrease in the
in the revenue from imports. l am informed
at the treasury, that the proceeds from land
sales have been unusually heavy this quarter.
One authority represent them to have been
nearly three millions of dollars, which is but
little less than the entire receipts of last year.

IMPROVING STooK.--The following extract in
the "Year Book OF Agriculture" from an Ag-
ricultural Report in England, appears TO me Of
importance and true "There is no circum-
stance relative to the Introduction Of new
breeds, which must not be passed over in
silence, because no farmer can neglect II with
out certain loss. Every kind OF pasture Is
fitted to raise animals to a particular sixe.--
When beasts of larger size are brought In
than the quality Of the food Is calculated to
support, these animals whatever they are, will
degenerate apace and never prove useful until
they come downto that standard, size, adapted
to their situation and food. On the other hand
when smaller breed than ordinary is brought
in, they continue to increase in bulk until they
come up to the pitch which is suited to their
| nourishment. But there is this remarkable
| difference between the two progressions, in re
| spect TO profit that in the reirogrGde process,
where animals arc brought from rich pasture,
and comfortable situation, to the reverse,
they are, In every instance, worse than the in
digenous breed whereas, the animals which
are brought from worse TO better, continue TO
improve until they arrive at that perfection
! which The change in their situation is calcu-
lated to produce. These causes may not i'm
mediately have their full effect, but in certain
period they certainly and evidently will, fol
this reason, il is a much safer experiment from
lrorse 10 better than from heller 10 trorse.
