SELECT PEACHES. 



Peaches succeed to perfection in this region. Here "yellows" and other 

 diseases from which they suffer in Northern States are unknown. The pits from 

 which they are raised, and the stock from which they are budded are alike of 

 pristine vigor ; a point planters should bear in mind.
