256 Pomological J\*otices. 



in regard to the true red Antwerp: at least six or eight kinds 

 are cultivated as the red Antwerp, and we are in doubt wheth- 

 er either of them are the genuine kind. To set the matter 

 beyond doubt, we have imported a few vines from the best 

 sources, and when they come into bearing, we hope to ac- 

 complish this object. 



7'Ae Victoria raspberry, of which we gave an account last 

 year, has been introduced, and will probably fruit next year. 



The Turkish Turban is the name under which we have seen 

 a variety advertised in the London magazines, as a fine fruit. 



The new red Antwerp. — Under this name we have received 

 a few plants from our correspondents, Messrs. A. J. Down- 

 ing & Co., of Newburgh, N. Y., which they state to have 

 originally been discovered in a garden near that city. It is 

 considered by them as preferable to the red Antwerp. 



The Ever-bearing Raspberry. — In our Vol. III., p. 154, 

 under our Miscellaneous Notices, we gave an account of this 

 fruit, which had then just been brought into notice: since 

 then, we have heard very little of it till the past year. It is 

 now attracting more attention, and as it is deemed a valuable 

 acquisition, we have copied a further description of it below, 

 which we find in the American Agricidturisl: — 



The Ohio Ever-bearing raspberry was first discovered some 

 fifteen years ago, in the northern part of the State, near lake 

 Erie, but in what particular part is unknown. Mr. Long- 

 worth, of Cincinnati, introduced it into his garden in 1S32, at 

 which period he was driven into the back country by the 

 cholera, where he found it growing. It has been little known, 

 however, in Cinciimati, until within the last two years, but 

 there is now great efFort made by the gardeners to cultivate it 

 for the market of that city. The fruit resembles the wild 

 native raspberry, but is much larger, more fleshy, and of a 

 much finer flavor, and is also a very profuse bearer. In Cincin- 

 nati, the wood of the previous year bears one crop in June, 

 after which it soon dies; the young shoots then come into 

 bearing, and continue doing so into October, till the frost cuts 

 them off, when may be seen buds and blossoms, and the fruit 

 in every stage from green up to full ripe, on the bush, stayed 

 by the hand of natuie in the midst of their productiveness. 

 The fruit is preferred by many to the red Antwerp, and with 

 its large erect clusters of flowers, presents a beautiful appear- 

 ance.
