TERRY, KINDS Co., MISS, July p, 1873.
EDS. CLARIoN-GENTs: In your issues
of the 10th and 18th inst, 1 notice some
figures given by your Crystal Springs cor
respondent with regard to the prices, etc,
of the fruit crops, more especially peaches.
In making these figures, am afraid he will
lead some persons astray and therefore
propose TO give you both figures and facts.
The present year has been a very disastrous
one to the fruit growers proper. Prices
have ruled low, freights have been high,
and commissions enormous. herewith en-
close you tabular statement of sales, COM
missions, freight, boxes, and gathering of the
fruit from 5000 bearing peach trees, under
my immediate supervision, and of which 1
have kept perfect and correct account up
to date. If from these data your Crystal
Springs correspondent can get $3.50 90 per
acre, l am at loss to know where 1t comes
from. In past years we have made money
propogating peaches, but not at % cents per
one-third bushel box. Nor has the crop
realized even that this season. Lands in
this ;place cannot be bought for less than
from $50 to 800 per acre, even half mile
from the depot. Can you afford at present
prices of peaches to give this price for land
purchase your trees and wait three years
for q crop? Having in prospective, too, a
heavy tax for railroad purposes levied upon
you? | simply write this, that no erroneous
impressions may be given. The peach cui-
ture on this line Of road is failure as it is
II we DO not get lower rates of freight both
North and South. or if a canning establish
ment and still is not put here, at Crystal
Springs, our best policy would be to curtail
half our trees.
Respectfully,
j. E. GoODLETT.
LIST OF PEACHES CONSIGNED TO NEW Or
LEANS, 1873:

A FINE SAIL BoAr.-Joseph Stewart
the we'll known painter, is a genius in the
boat building line. He yesterday morn
log put into the water a boat which drew
quite 8 crowd Of spectators from among
the admirers Of yachting craft. The
boat Is not only a beauty but deserves
special notice from the novelty Of it's
construction. 1t was built without
pattern or mould, as it is called. and has
no ribs or other device forming the model
upon which 10 build. Mr.. Stewart built
It as the birds build their nests, in the air
we might say. The hull is composed OF
strips two and a half inches by an inch
and a hall. They are nailed together,
after being coated with white lead, ply
upon ply, forming a structure as solid as
o log. 10 fact. it looks just IA II cut out
Of a section Of one OF the famous Cali
fornia trees that We read about.
The Dimensions Of the boat are: length
"a feet, beam s feet, depth 80 inches
Three thousand feet OF lumber and three
kegs Of nails and pplkes were used in III
construction. In filling the seams and
painting three hundred pounds Of white
lend we're used. The main mast ia OF ash
and ia 81 feet high. The main sail will
stand Is feet high, l6 feet at the lower
edge and ~ feet at the top edge, giving .
superficial area OF 224 feet. The iib Is IL
feet high, 10 feet at the bottom and run
ming to u point, and has 4 superficial ares
OF so square feet, or a total OF canvas
amounting to S04 feet. She will seal
forty persons comfortably and would car
~ twice that number with safety. II sht
proves to be Il good sailer Mr.. Stewart
will have the finest sailing craft on thu
Upper Ohio.
