Peaches Frosted,
George Kiester, of Aaronsburg, who is
| mterested in the most extensive peach
| culture in this county, informs us that
| upon examination lately made, he finds
| that three-fourths of the peach buds
[ among his thousands of trees, are killed,
and that in other orchards he finds the
damage to the same extent. Some
varieties of the fruit stood the cold better
than others,
