THE PEACH. 
respects, originated by Dr. Bayne, of Alexandria, D. C. It is 
considered rather finer by some. 
Hull’s Athenian. 
From Henry Hull, Jr., Athens, Ga. Fruit very large, oblong, 
depressed at apex ; suture a mere line. Skin very downy, yellow- 
ish-white, marbled with dull red in the sun. Flesh white, pale 
led at the stone, rather firm and rich, with a high, vinous fla- 
vour ; a great acquisition. October. (Ga. Pom. S. Kept.) 
Incomparable. Lind. Thomp. 
Pavie Admirable. Bon. Jard. Ken. Late Admirable Cling. 
Larger than the Catherine, which it resembles. It is inferior 
to it and several others in flavouf, and is only worthy of cultiva- 
tion for market. 
Leaves with reniform glands. Fruit large, roundish, one side 
enlarged. Skin pale yellowish-white, light red on the exposed 
side. Flesh yellowish-white, red at the stone, juicy, melting, 
and of agreeable flavour. Last of September. Flowers small. 
Jackson Cling. 
Raised by Mrs. L. A. Franklin, Athens, Ga. Fruit large, ob- 
long, with a very large, swollen point. Skin rich dark yellow, 
covered with dark red in the sun. Flesh rather firm, orange- 
yellow, and dark red at the stone ; juicy, sprightly, rich, and 
delicious; quality “best.” Last of August. (Ga. Pom. S. Rep.)

New York White Clingstone. Floy. Williamson’s New York. 
Selby’s Cling. 
The Large White Clingstone is by far the most popular of this 
class of peaches in this State, and in New England. We think: 
it superior to the Catherine and Old Newington, and only sur- 
passed in flavour by the Oldmixon Cling and the Heath Cling. 
This variety was raised about forty years ago by David Wil- 
liamson, a nurseryman, in New York, and was first described by 
Floy as the New York Clingstone. But as it is universally 
known now by the present title, we have placed the original 
names as synonymes. The light colour and excellent quality 
of this fruit render it the greatest favourite for preserving in 
brandy or sugar. The tree is remarkably hardy and long lived; 
rarely if ever being attacked by the yellows. It bears regular 
and good crops. 
Leaves with globose glands. Fruit large, round ; the suture 
slight, and the swollen point at the top small. Skin white (in- 
clining to yellow only when over-ripe), dotted with red on the 
sunny side, or with a light-red cheek when fully exposed. Flesh
