This apple was brought to my notice by Mr. 
James H. Salisbury, of Cortland Co. It has 
been cultivated for many years by Nathan Sa¬ 
lisbury, Esq., his father, an intelligent fruit¬ 
grower of that county, and has ever been es¬ 
teemed as one of the best of apples. Having 
tasted this apple on several occasions, I must concur in this opinion. It may be a well 
known fruit, yet I have failed to discover a description in books which answers to its cha¬ 
racters. The insertion of the stem is peculiar, and will lead at once to its recognition.
