The Escape Of the Fruit.

We arc encouraged to believe that the
bulk Of our peach crop is yet safe, notwithstan-
ding tho severe freezing weather. This hope
mxy prove i'll founded, it is true; it may be that
some fatal injury has been done by the cold
which is not now discernible but which will ap-
pear ~ the season goes on; but, so far, the
weight of opinion is to the effect that in the
greater part Of the peach-growing district
on che Peninsula, the buds are mostly unin-
jursd. Some Of them are killed, but Nature 8
profusIon amply allows for this. She provides
buds far more plentifully than will be in the end
needed for fruit, and the thousands that are
killed by frosts, or drop of from other causes,
are to be freely spared. Indeed, in seasons of
q full yield the excessive bearing OF the trees
undoubtedly does them injury
We need hardly say that an earnest feeling OF
thankful rejoicing will pervade our PeninsulaI
communities If it shall prove that the fruit has
survived. The prospect for a good crop has
been 30 encouraging until now, and the weather
remains 30 harshly unreasonable that escape
from injury il good reason,for substantial cheer
