juice. The tree is a free grower, is very fertile, and bears its 

 fruit in clusters. 



John Boys, Esq. sent from his garden at Margate, specimens 

 of a Seedling Apple, the produce of a tree raised from the seed 

 of the Nonpareil. It very much resembles the Nonpareil in 

 size and shape, and even in colour, except that the yellow 

 predominates over the green more than in the Nonpareil. 

 The flesh is yellowish intermixed with green, juicy, rich, 

 and high flavoured. It has been named the Margate Non- 

 pareil. It will keep about six weeks in perfection, and is 

 an excellent intermediate fruit between the Summer and the 

 Winter Nonpareils ; the original parent tree, which has only 

 borne fruit three years, is a great bearer, a free grower, and 

 clear of canker. 



James Warre, Esq. sent to the Meeting on the 15th of 

 October, specimens of a seedling Apple, raised from the Rib- 

 ston Pippin, in the garden of Stephen Dowell, Esq. at 

 Braygrove, Berkshire. In size and form it somewhat resembles 

 the Ribston Pippin, but is more pointed at the head, and the 

 eye is sunk in a more confined and deeper cavity. The stalk 

 is short and deeply inserted ; the ground colour of the skin is 

 green, but is nearly covered with a clear thin russet, and on 

 the exposed side there is a slight tinge of brownish red ; the 

 flesh is rather of a finer texture than that of the Ribston 

 Pippin, but in colour and flavour closely resembles it. It 

 has been named DowelTs Pippin. 



At the same Meeting, specimens of a seedling Apple were 

 received from Mr. John Barnard, of Waltham Abbey. The 

 tree was raised by him from a seed of the Golden Noble 

 Apple, to which the seedling bears a strong resemblance, but
