A
“
gentleman, who has devoted much os
is time to agricultural pursuits, assured
us that he has med: frequent experiments
evn his appie-orchard ; and he has never
known the exp riment which we shall now
state, to fail in a single instance. His
orchard contains a great varicty ol apple-
. trees, some very acid, frait and others par-
taking of both these prougrties.
ile declares that ip the vernal season
when bis trees are in fall blossom, he bas
frequently taken the farina from one tree
for example where the fiuit is very swect,
und deposited it ‘on tiie Bowers of a parac-
utar branch of another tree, whore fruit is]
ex remely acid, The apples of that pars]
ticular branch witly he assures us, combine]
these two properties for that Season ; and,
by this situpie process, he asserts, that he,
can easily provide himself, for that season,
with apples perfectly to his taste ; which;
he considers a much more expeditious and!
equally as certan a prceess, as that of
gf ing. :
" We mention this fact for the miorma-
tion of our country friends who may be dis-
josed to try this simple experiment.

official account of the captuie, in the South
Seas, ofa hrigate and two transports form-
ine part of the ‘expedition which sailed
fom Cadiz in May last for Lima. Ac-
counts had also reached Buenos ‘Ayres of
the March of San Martin's army across the
Cordilieras, towards Lima. Cuili was en-
tirely evacuated by the rogalisis. This
captain sailed from the port of Maldonado,

the war with great vizor and success agains:
the Portuguese. He also touched at Kio
Janeiro, and ‘was there an eye witness of
the following tyranuical and pusiianimous
action. His majesty the reigning king of
Portugal and Brezil itappears was induc
ed to vi:it the Poriuguese Admiral’s ship,
2 74 then anchored in the harbor, which is
a kind of paturai basing never ruffled by the
winds, His Portuguese majesty, who has
a remarkable dread of drowning; got alarm-
ed on his return in the Admirals large pin-
bace to the shore. As soon as the royal
carviege landed on the guay, his Majesty
grew outrageous, and seizing a cane, be-
laboured the Admiral over the head and
shoulders until the blood ran. This out-
rage occurred in the presence of several
thousand spectators, and ended in the Ad
iniral’'s bemg conducted to prison.
