F IFTY acres of the fertile soil of Onondaga Co. are occupied by 
the proprietors of these nurseries in the cultivation of fruit trees 
alone, embracing almost every desirable variety of Apple, Pears, 
Peach. Pi urn, Cherry, Apricot and Nectarine. Trees sent from 
their nurseries are universally admired for their vigorous, healthy, 
and youthful growth,—the best guarantee to the purchaser of a 
rapid advance to largeness of size, and beauty of form,—and it is 
the aim of the proprietors to be ab e to supply those who may fa 
vor them wit their orders with a quality of trees always superior. 
Among their varieties of the apple, they have many thousands 
of the justly celebrated Northern Spy, from seven to nine feet 
in li-ight, which they will continue to supply, as heretofore, in' an 
assortment with others, at the same rate. Where the selection is 
left to them, a portion of the Northern Spy is always included. 
They cultivate largely, also, the Hawley , the Green Sweeting, the 
Ladies' tweeting, Peck's Pleasant, Swnar, Baldwin, Spilzenbwg, 
in short, all of the best standard varieties, early and late. Among 
forty of the choicest kinds of pears, they have large sized and well 
formed trees of the Onondaga , Oswego Beurre. and Van Mon's Leon 
J> CPrc. Of cherries, peaches, plums, &c., their nurseries in¬ 
clude, in large numbers, all that are most desirable. Purposely 
limiting their varieties of fruit trees to those only that are of ap¬ 
proved worth, their Catalogue will be found to contain scarcely 
one that ranks below first rate ” Persons desiring to buy at 
wholesale , can be supplied on the most liberal terms, and can de¬ 
pend upon obtaining selections of the best varieties, as well as 
trees of the finest growth. 
The proprietors have been much gratified by the constantly in¬ 
creasing demand for their trees, from the Eastern part of this state, 
and from New England; and in soliciting a continuance of favors 
from those quarters, they pledge themselves that the productions 
of their nurseries shall not forfeit the partiality -which is so flatter¬ 
ingly bestowed upon them. 
Much care is given to the packing of trees, so that they can be 
transported witlrsafety to any distance. 
Catalogues may be obtained at the apothecary store of M. W. 
Hanch tt, between the Railroad and Syracuse House; and by 
pt st-paid application to the proprietors.

Hamilton Nursery. 
THE proprietor of this establishment confines himself wholly to 
J the propagation of hardy Fruit Trees, all of which have been 
obtained from the most reliable sources, or cut from bearing trees 
of well known varieties. About sixty varieties of plums and a 
large quantity of the Apples have been proved on his own grounds, 
and all are cultivated with his own hands, assisted by his son, who 
is soon to assume a personal interest in the business. And all the 
cutting of buds or grafts, and the labeling of trees, with the over¬ 
sight of taking up and packing, being done by him in person, he 
feels confident of being able to give as good satisfaction as to cor¬ 
rectness, as can be given at any other nursery. The stock of ap¬ 
ples is large, and embraces numerous varieties, so that the Fruit 
Grower and Amateur Horticulturist can each he supplied.

Chemical Manure 
Manufactured by (i the George Bommer Neio-York Manure Co 
tT'HIS manure is made chiefly of Fecal Matter from the sinks, 
*. in which is mixed a small portion of substances that are «f 
themselves, powerful agents of vegetation, and possess the virtue to 
fix and retain the ammoniaeal gas of the matter. 
The great desideratum of the agriculturist has always been, to 
find out some process by which excrements might be solidified 
quickly, and all their fertilizing properties so strongly retained, 
that the manure may dissolve slowly and in proportion to the re¬ 
quirements of the plants, and therefore produce its effects for a 
time equal to that of farm manure. 
This process was at length discovered by the French Chemists, 
and is now carried out with complete success in more than sixty 
of the large cities of France, where such manure factories are in 
full operation. 
The “ G- B. N. Y. M. C.” has established a Factory on an ex¬ 
tensive scale near the city of New York, in which they manufac¬ 
ture this kind of manure, and as the fecal matter can he obtained 
in this country at less expense than in France, the manure will 
not only he made stronger, but will be sold at a price less than in 
the French cities, this price being so established as to afford only 
ti e reasonable remuneration to which we are honestly entitled, 
the more so, as its manufacture is not of the most agreeable kind, 
and withal- troublesome and laborious. 
The manufacturing department is under the special charge of 
George Bommer, Esq., who has a perfect scientific and practical 
knowledge of manure matters generally; and the company has 
established a standard for the strength of its manure, from which 
it is intended not to deviate, so that its customers may at all times 
be furnished with an article really worth what they pay for it. 
Our manure is an inodorous grain, and as the substances from 
which it is made contain of themselves all the elements necessary 
to the fertilization of the soil and growth of plants, it is extremely 
well adapted to such purposes. 
To manure an acre highly, it requires 12 to 15 barrels, or 36 to 
45 bushels spread broadcast. Applied in hills, half of the quantity 
wiil suffice. Its application is simple and easy, and printed in¬ 
structions for its use will accompany each parcel sent to order. 
\Ve desire it to be remembered, that our manure has no similar¬ 
ity to another known under the name of “poudrette,” although 
the principal component of ours (the fecal matter) is the same as 
that which is used in the poudrette, in a much less proportion; our 
auxiliary substances, as well as our manufacturing processes are 
altogether of a different nature and kind. 
It belongs not to us to eulogise further, the quality of our ma- 
nure : what we desire at present is, to call upon the members of 
lie agricultural community, to try it! and we have reason to assure 
them*that they will find it the most profitable manure they have ever
