OUfi FliT'IT LIST.
We igik present to our readers, as the
time approaches, a revised list of Fruit Trees-
Vises etc., which we cmt recommend for gen
eral cultivation. Twelve or fifteen varieties
of pears, and six to eight of apples, are ail
sufficient, provided they are the best adapted
to the soil and locality—a fact which each
one, npon trial, most judge for himself. Fre
qaeutly a pear, an apple or a grape may do
well for a few years and then deteriorate :
or may do excellently well in one location,
and not in another, though separated by a
very narrow space. In such case it had bet
ter be disposed of by grafting it with more re
liable varieties. We have changed oar opin
ion respecting a cumber of fruits within the
last half dozen years, and yet in some of the
instances we are convinced the fault was in
the location and soil.
According to onr preren" p reference, we
should select the following for our own plant
ing, viz :
STANDARD TEAKS.
I. Early Catharine, tiiffard.

raange.
Of \Jie above, from No. 1 to 4 are summer
varieties : from sto 10 autumn : 11. 12, 13
and 14 winter, thus affording a sufficient oum
fcr each of the periods, of the best known
-oris for this region.
OWAJCR PEARS.
1. St- Michael d'Ar 6. BonMock,
change, "■ Belie Lucrative,
2. Bartstt, ?. Lawrence,
3. Cornice, 9. Potts,
1 Kisteiicr, 10. Feafter.
5. Liehi,
APPLES.
I. Maiden's BJu.-b, 5. Smith's Cider
2 Baldwin, 6. Northern Spy,
3. L. I. Bui-eet, 7. Fornwalder,
4. Jeffries, S McCleliao.
If any of our friends can furnish a more
desirable list of apples we should like to hear
from them. We know that there are a coup
le of new sorts just introduced. but a- have
DO knowledge as to their value as a general
rop.
PEACHES.
I. Crawford*? Kariy. 4. OHinixon !ree.
!, George IV. 5. Otdojixon, (cling.
3. Morris White, C. Bergen's Yellow.
if any of the peach-growers of New Jer-
Jersey. Delaware or Maryland can gia
better list, eren by increasing the number of
varieties to a dozen, we Ehall be pleased to
hear from them. We do not grow apples or
{•eaches, and baae our selections upon the
gee era! opinion of farmers and others, and
judging when we have the opportunity from
the appearance of the orchards, the exhibi
tions of Horticulture and agricultural socie
ties. and the reports of the committees.
CRAPES.
1. Telegraph, 5. linger* So. 4,
2. C'-jDvi-rd, 6. Rogers So. • ■?.
Hartford Pr-cifie. 7. Creveliog,
4. Rogers So. 1, 8. Delaware.
We restore the Delaware to our list of
grapes this season, still believing that by se
lecting a warm exposure, and planting shal
low, a fair crop may be obtained for private
use.
CHERRIES.
J. May Luke, 5. Germanlown,
!. Early Bkhmcci, 6. Belle Magtiifique,
3. Black Tartarian. 7. Dowaton,
4. Black Eagle, 8. Kentish or Lie.
We restore the Kentish or Pie Cherry to
oar list. It ripens a week or ten days after
the Early Richmond, and always, except in
the most unfavorable seasons, gives a large
crop of sound fruit. We omit the Governor
Wood because it does not generally mature
its fruit. A rain followed by a hot sun when
the cherries are nearly ripe, will sometimes
blast the whole crop. Its quality however is
superior to all others. The "Germantown"
is the largest cherry grown, is handsome in
appearance, an abundant bearer of sound
fruit, and very good in quality.
RASPBERRIES.
1. Brinekie*!" Orange, 3. CatawUsa,
2. Hornet. 4. Philadelphia.
We cultivate all these varieties of the rasp
berry. in addition to the Hudson River Ant
werp and the old Purple. We omit the Hud
son River from our list, and substitute the
Philadelphia. The Hudson River is an excel*
lent berry, rather better in quality than the
Hornet, which it resembles, though net so
large, but it is not hardy or a good grower,
and unless care is taken will "run out" in a
few years. The Catawissa is the two crop
variety, which every one ought to cultivate
for the autumn crop only, by cutting all the
canes clean off to the ground in November
and covering the stools with manure.
STRAWBERRIES,
1. Russell's Prolific, j ". Hovey's Seedling,
2. Triumphe de grand j 4. Albany Seedling.
At present we are not prepared to change
our strawberry list. There are many new can
didates for public favor, but for family use
and market combined we know of none to be
preferred to the foregoing. In retaining the
Albany Seedling, it is done expressly for mar
keting purposes. Those who have room for
only one or two kinds for private use, we rec.
omuiend Hovey's Seedling (which is pistil
late) and the Triomphe or Russell's Prolific,
i staminates; to be planted in alternate bedg
of three feet in width, allowing eighteen inch
es space between them. With proper culti
vation a crop is next to a certainty.
< CRIUSTK.
I. Black Naples, | 2. Red Dutch.
We consider those the two best currants.
We have the Cherry Currant, which is larger
than the Rad Dutch, but it is too acid ; while
the White Grape, which is of good size and
flavor, and transparent in appearance, is a
poor grower, of a sprawling habit, and bears
mostly near the ground, which dirties the
fruit and extracts the flavor.
GOOS BERRIES.
1. Houghton, j 2. Downing.
T"hee are the two best and most profitable
cultivated. All the huge imported kinds are
thick-skinned, tough, and sure to mildew.
BLACKBERRIES.
1. Xew Rochella. j g. Dorchester.
The New Rochelle blackberry produces a
better crop perhaps than the Derchester, and
the later ripened berries retain their flavor
more entirely : but the first ripening of the
Dorchester is sweeter and more delicious than
the other. A new variety called the "Kilta
t I i fr ° m tLe KiM * tinn y mountain, near
the Delaware Water Gap, is well spoken of,
but we reserve our opinion for the present
It is better that those who intend to culti
vate fruit and have to make purchases should
take this list with theui to the nursery, and
adhere to it as far as possible, it is not fair
to the nursery niao to ask him for a list of the
best sorts, as he has all kinds to sell to accom
modate every taste and demand.—Gerisnu

.SKASOXABI.E advice —Fay the printer.
"GESH * wB! work its way through," as
the poet said when he saw a bole in the elbow
of his coat.
A MERCHANT'S advice in selecting a wife
was. "Get hold of a piece of calico that will
tea*b.' f
Ix some places out west the grass-hoppers ]
have destroyed everything but grass widows.
"YorsCman, do you believe in a future j

WHEV you see a man on a corner on a
moonlight night, trying to convince his own ;
shadow that it is improper to follow a gentle- i
man. you may set him down as a sign for a
whiskey shop.
A Toexo lady says: "If our Maker thought
it wrong for Adam to live single when there
was not a woman on earth how criminally
guilty are bachelors, with the world full of
pretty girls 7'
A ui-'EKi v old farmer who bad lost one of
his best hands in the midst of bay making, re
marked to the sexton as he was filling up the
grave: "It's a sad thing to lose a good mow
er at a time like this ; but after all poor Tom
was a great eater."
A LITTLE Swedish girl was walking with
her father one night, under the starry sky,
intently meditating upon the glories of Heav
en. At last, looking up to the sky. she said :
"Father. 1 have been thinking if the wrong
side of Heaven is so beautiful, what will thc
right side be 7'
DOSING the recent session of the equal
rights convention, a strong-minded female en
tered a street railroad car. An old geat rose
to give her a seat: but asked, "Be you one
of those women's lighter*?" "1 be." "You
believe a woman should have ail the rights of
s man ?" "Yes I do." "Then stand up and
enjoy them like a man": and stand up she;
did."
"A little girl, who had received the pater- ;
nal injunction to remember what the minis- I
ter said, returned from the church delighted.
"I remember something." she said.
"Ah, very glad of it," replied the father :
"what did he say 7'
"He said." she cried, "a collection will
now be taken up."
ANDERSON the wizard, met with a Yankee,
who stole a march on him one day. after the j
following pattern :
"I say. are yon Professor Anderson
"Yes. sir, at your service."
"Yi'a'all your a tarnation smart man. and
I'm something at a trick, too. kinder cute,
deu ye know."
"Ah, indeed, what trick are you up to
asked the Professor, amused at the simple
fellow.
"Wa'all, 1 can take a ltd cen' and change
it into a ten dollar sold niece."
"Oh. that's a mere slight of hand trick : I j
can do that too."
"No you can't: I'd like to aee you try."
"Well, hold out your paw with a cent lying
in it. This is your cent, is it, sure ?"
"lis nothing else."
"Hold on to it tight—presto.—change.
Now open your hand."
Yankee opened his fist, and there wa- a
gold eagle shining on his palm.
"Wa'all, you did it, I declare : oble
ged to you." and Jonathan turned to go out.
"Stay," said the Professor, "you may leave
my ten dollars."
"Yours!" war't it my cent; and didn't you
turn it into that yaller thing, eh?" Good
bye" and as he left the room he was heard
to say, "I guess there ain't anything green
about lbi4 child."
.".CIDENTS OF SL'EECH.
Pat has long labored under the imputation
of making more "accident* with the tongue ,
than any of his fellow mortals, but it ean be
very readily shown that the "bull" is not nec 1
essarily indigenons to Irish soil.
A Frenchman named Calion, who died in
Paris not many years ago, was remarkable |
for a bovine tendency. There is a letter of '
his In existence as follows : "My dearest
friend : 1 left my knife at your lodgings yes- !
terday. Pray send it to me if yon find it.
Yours. CAUOX. P. S. —Never mind sending j
the knife ; I have found it."
There is a note to his wife, which he sent
home with a basket of provisions, the post
script to which read: "You will find my let
ter at the bottom of the basket. If you should
Jail to do so. let me know as soon as posai- 1
ble."
It is said of this same character that on one !
occasion be took a lighted taper to find his
way down stairs without accident, and after
getting down brought it back with thank.?,
leaving himself at the top of the stairs in the
dark as at first.
It was a Scotch woman who said that the
butcher of her town only killed a half beast
at a time.
It was a Dutchman who said a pig had no !
I ear marks except a short tail ; and it was a
: British magistrate who, being told by a vaga
| bond that he was not married, responded,
| "that's a good thing for your wife."
I At a prayer meeting in New Hampshire a
worthy layman spoke of a poor boy whose -
i father was a drunkard and whose mother wag I
i a widow.
At a Negro ball, of "not transferable" on'
• the tickets, notice was posted over the door : !
; "No gentleman admitted unless he comes
; hisself."
Au American lecturer of note solemnly said
I '-' ne evening. "Parents, ;ou may have chil
dren, or, if yon have not, your daughters
may have."
AVt estern editor once wrote : "A corrc-s
-pondent asks whether the battle of Waterloo
occurred before or after the commencement
of the Christian era. We answer it did."
A Maine editor says a pumpkin in thai
State grew so large that eight men could
stand around it : which statement wag only
equaled by that of the Hoosier who saw a
flock of pigeons fly so low that he eouid
shake a stick at them.
Those two observing men, one of whom
said that he had always noticed when he liv
ed through the month ofMy he lived through
the year, and the other of whom said at a
wedding that he had remarked that more wo
men than men had bean married that rear. T
were neither of them Irishmen.
