Mark how justly Pennoek's Red Winter is valned and tlien 

 calculate — the privilege of every Yankee with a pedigree ! — 

 whether or no the Lady Apple can be grown in Worcester 

 County and laid down in Liverpool for from four (4) to eight (8) 

 dollars per barrel. There is no law to prevent your exportation 

 of other varieties ; — such tirst-rate and good keeping kinds, for in- 

 stance, as the Huhbardston Nonesuch and Porter. Receipts for 

 home-made pies, as well as for long and short sauce, would add 

 little to the charge for freight, and would be a handy thing in 

 the home of John Bull who has behaved, for him, unusually 

 well of late ; — not even obstructing our catch for fish-balls. 



Five months later, when the supply must have been restricted 

 to what stock had been kept along in cold-houses ; the chances 

 of decay during an ocean voyage, throughout the vernal months 

 being too great to risk ; the quotations in Covent Garden betray 

 marked appreciation. I would simply say of one variety — the 

 Momanite — held at ISs 9d, that if it is what was known by that 

 name, along the Ohio River, forty years ago, when and where 

 your Secretary first and last saw it, no member of this Society 

 would tolerate it in his orchard. Bat, you await the figures !
