T his establishment has been greatly enlarged during the past 
season, and now embraces one of the largest and best collec- 
tion of FRUIT TREES, VINES, Ac., in the South. It is the de- 
termination of the. proprietors (and they are now preparing) to ex- 
tend their operations so as to compete, in extent, quantity and varie- 
ty, with any Nursery in the whole country ; and they sincerely 
hope that the Southern country will patronize, with a fair liberal- 
ity, this useful and necessary branch of industry, and not give the 
preference to Northern Nurseries, as has hitherto been the custom. 
We have on hand a very large stock of TREES, consisting of 150 
varieties of Apples, including 75 Southern varieties ; 91 of Pears ; 
25 of Plums; 20 of Cherries; 12 of Nectarines; Almonds, Figs, 
Raspberries, Mulberies, Pomegranates, Grapes, Qumces and Straw- 
berries ; a fine and large collection of Roses on their own roots, to- 
gether with a few choice Greenhouse and Evergreen PLANTS;

gation and raising of Fruit Trees, combined with its shipping facili-

Augusta, Ga., April 3, 1855. 
I h.ave been running one of Scott’s Little Giant Corn and 
Cob MIU.S. No. 4, for the last five weeks, and it performs to my 
entire satisfaction. It was warranted to grind 20 bushels per hour, 
but I have ground over 35 bushels in an hour and a half, or equal to 
234 bushels per hour. In feeding 30 horses, I save at least 100 
bushels of Com per month, it now requiring only 200 bushels of 
Com with the Cob, where 1 formerly fed 300. I consider it decid- 
edly the best kind of Cmsher ever got up, and if I cotild not re- 
place mine I would not sell it for 8500.
