SO far as we know, is the best yield
OF fruit ever reported in this State

Rose Apple.
WON Hortus Jamnicensis.

FROM 1oTLuS J0nlGtcenSiS.
Leaves quite entire, peduncles
branched, terminating.
This tree rises twenty or thirty
feet high with handsome spreading
branches. Leaves lanccola;e, acute
opposite. Fruit round, smooth, crown
ed with the calyx, of a fine yellow
color, when ripe, about two inches in
diameter; the rind about one-fourth
inch thich, hollow containing rounds
ish nut which rattIes in the fruit
when ripe. The rind has a sweetish,
watery taste, with flavor like roses,
from which the name has been de-
rived; but it is not in much esteem
as fruit. This tree is a native of
the East Indies, and was introduced
into Jamaica in the year 1852, by
Zachary Bailey, Esq, and is SO hardy
as to thrive well i'll almost any soil,
multiplying ilselfso much by scatter
ing its seeds, that wherever there is
bearing tree the surrounding lands
will be covered with young plants,
very troublesome in some situations,
as the seed take root and grow very
speedily.

General Manager Fred Wolfe, of the
Erlanger syndicate, arrived in the city yes
terday morning, in attendance on the meet.
ing OF the directory of the Memphis Selma
and Brunswick railway set for yesterday.
The following data respecting the railroad
consultations in the Southern States is given
by the Cincinnati Enquirer, which says that
tive syndicstes practically embrace all the
railroad service southeast Of the Mississippi
river. They are: The Louisville and Nash
vile, 1850 miles; the Erlanger syndicate,
1000 miles; the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia, 1850 miles; the Clyde lines,
1900 miles, and the Georgia consolidation
300 miles-in nearly all 1900 miles of
road. They represent nearly 81 900, 600, 900,
but it is not easy 10 see how they can all do
a profitable business with practically cotton
alone to ship north.
