 lence, and ripens about' the first of September. Mr. Coxe

 name by which it is distinguished.

HILL'S MADEIRA. PR. CAT, .Cox*. 



This is described by Mr. Coxe as a very large peach; but 

 the fruit from which he drew his description was probably 

 produced under circumstances peculiarly favourable, and I 

 am informed by Mr. C. R. Smith that its size 'varies exceed-

 have not succeeded in having large fruit on my trees ; but it 

 may be that their location was not sufficiently favourable. 

 This fruit is white, with a faint tinge of red next the sun ; the 

 flesh is tender, melting, juicy, and high flavoured ; it ripens 

 in September. Mr. Coxe remarks that the tree was raised by 

 the late Henry Hill, Esq, of Philadelphia, from a stone brought 

 from Madeira, and that the fruit has weighed twelve ounces.
