PEACHES AGAIN.-Thanks are again
rendered to Mr.. G.. H. Beach, the pro-
prietor of the ''New England Orchard"
Msrysville, for box of the finest peach
es of a variety of his own raising styled,
"Beach's Mammoth Early" The vari-
ETY. is certainly one of the most valua-
bic in the State. The truth is, while it
is the most luscious, it is very beautiful
and uncommonly large for SO early a
peach its first ripening being about
the LIST of July. A sight of collection
of this variety of peach could not fail
to cure homesickness in its most chronic
form. One glance and you would for
get the flesh pots of Egypt forever. If
any of our friends ARE longing for home
and disparaging the claims of Califor-
MIA to their regard, let them try the
sight, taste and capital enjoyment of
"Beach's Mammoth Early" They will
complain no longer of an "aching void
the world can never fill"
The types made us say last week
that the New England Orchard would
turn out three hundred trees of the va
ricty. 1t should have been three thous-

100 TONS OF GRASS TO AN
ACRE.

MEssRs. EDITORS The statement
taken from an English paper, respecting
the raising of one hundred tons of grass
on a single acre of land pertaining to
Lord Derby's estate, is undoubtedly cor
rect, or nearly SO. l had the pleasure of
visiting his lordship's estate last summer,
while on tour of agricultural observa-
in England, and 1 am prepared to be-
lieve the statement. My visit was made
about the first of. June, and they had
already secured two heavy crops of grass,
and it is not improbable that four or five
more were cut during the long and favor
able seasons of last year. Four or five
crops of the heavy, stout Italian rye grass
is not unusual; and Mr.. Mecui of the
celebrated Triptree farm informed me
that he had once grown seven during the
summer. This grass grows with great
rapidity in England when stimulated by
the rich liquid nutriment so literally and
continuously applied.
"Our farmers have yet much to learn
respecting the scientific cultivation of the
SOIL They have veto learn how bounti-
full mother earth may be when properly
dressed and cared for by the husband
man. 1t should be observed that the
climate of England is much more favor
able for the growth of grasses, than our
own, owing to its excessive humidity; but
still L do not know why several success
sive crops may not be procured here, by
the use of liquid manuring, and by care
full, systematic culture.
