Fruit culture iu the South is, com
paratively speaking, in its infancy;
especially is this the case in South
western Georgia.
When our people get their consent
to look to some other s>urco for mon
ey, outsido the culturo of cotton, wo
are of tho opinion that Fruit Culture
will claim much of thoir attention —
and tlio business will be more pleasant
and more profitable than that of cot
ton growing. Tho question arises in
tho minds of those who have decided
to have ail orchard, where shall I got
the trees, grafts ? etc. Is it safe to buy
from tho Northern nurseries ? This
question has boon propounded to us,
aud we unhesitatingly say to all, that
it is not at all safe. There are some
Northern fruit trees that will stand the
transfer and bottom* * acclimated ; there
are others that will not. Now, the
question to settle is, do we, at tho
South, who have given this subject
but little attention, know what to
buy, and what to let alone ? There are
but few of us who can, of our own
knowledge, give an opinion on tho
subject, and must depend entirely on
tho statements made hy the agents of
these nurseries, or the circulars sent
out by them. These agents may be
honorable, high-minded jusiness men
—wo do not say otherwise—but how
are we to know them to bo such !
Each and everyone will have recom
mendations from parties at the North,
all of whom are strangers to us ; hence
wo are left to deal with men we know
nothing of. We do not wish to injure
any man, nor do wo wish to say one
word that will deter any one from em
barking in the business, but we do
say it is safer 'and better to buy your
trees from Southern nurseries.
There arc nurseries at Atlanta, Ac.
gnsta, Macon, Columbus, and other
poinfs owned by men who have stud
ied the business, and who can inform
parties from tho diifoivnt sections as
to the kinds of trees to purchase loi
their particular section, and give such
other information as wo may need ;
and if they sell to us a something that
does not come up to tho rocommenda
tions, we know where to go to get re
dress.
The following is taken from the
Mobile Register, and is to the point:
We know very well that* it is to the
interest of Northern nurserymen to
combat those views, and “it is but nat
ural” that they should do so. “They
desire all the trade themselves,” ami
hence no means aro left untried to
convince the people of the South that
acclimation is a humbug ; that North
ern trees are as good for the South a?
Southern, aud Northern varieties as
perfectly adapted to our climate as
those of Southern origin. At this mo
ment there are hundreds of Northern
tree peddlers, or “agents,” as they call
themselves, perambulating the South,
with picture boos iu baud, dissemina
ting these dieas, duping and the peo
ple of tho South into the purchase of
Northern trees. As an illustration,
and as confirmatory of the views we
have expressed, an intelligent fruit
grower of Louisiana, in a business
letter to us of recent date, writes as
follows : “We ha v e a canvasser
through Mississippi and Louisiana
this spring, from one of the Roches
ter liur.- eiics, and happening to l'all in
his company a few days since on a
steamer from New Orleans, 1 was sur
prised to hear him say that he had
obtained orders, amounting in the ag
gregate to some eleven thousand dol
lars. It seems to me that our South
ern nurseries must adopt some such
course to circumvent these enterpris
ing pushing Yankees, who, in many
instances, are me. e Yankee cheats , botu
to save themselves and maintain a
healthy and successlel lruit culture in
tho South. * * * It is to be re
gretted that tho Southern people are
so easily imposed upon, and, think so
superficially in reference to matters of
the most vital importance touching
their material interests and worldly in
dependence and comfort. Notwith
standing the real experience and fail
ures of the past on the part of tho.- e
who have attempted to cultivate fruits
from trees grown in the Northern
States, our people still foolishly and
thoughtlessly venture on in the same
path, to meet with the same failures, i
Something About P.anting Out
<<u Orchard.
A correspondent at Butler, Georgia,
writes as follows:
“I want to plant orchards, this fall,
of peaches, apples, etc.—also a vine
yard, and will couside it a favor if
you will tell me the best varieties for
Middle Georgia My land is rich and
fresh. What is the proper distance
to plant so as not to interfere with the
cotton crop, planted in the orchard ?
I set out last spring a lot of young ap
ple trees ; o. eof them, planted by a
pen used for keeping ashes, which is I
three times as large as any of the rest
was about the same size when plan-1
ted.”
The proper distance h r planting
peach trees, standard pears, cherries
and plums, is Irena fifteen to eighteen
feet, where the trees are intended to
occupy the entire ground. Apple
trees should have more sjtace —irom
twenty to thirty feet Where parties
intend their land for other crops in
connection with lruit, the rows should
bo from forty to sixty loot apart, aud
the trees in the row from twelve to
eighteen feet. If the laud is level,
run tho rows in a straight lino, but il
broken, wo would recommend the
rows to run upon a level. Wo have
adopted tho following plan for the
last year or two, and are much pleas
ed with it: Ditch your lull-sides, giv
ing a fall of about three inches to
tvvelvo feet. Instead of throwing the
, dirt on tho ditch, throw it above. Let
the ditch be largo—at least a foot wide
! ami a foot deep. When you break
tho land in the spring or winter, uso a
hill-side turn-plow, and always turn
tho soil down tfie hill. 11 the laud is
broken thoroughly early in tho year,
and the ditches kept well cleaned out,
you will find your larm beautifully
terraced iu two or throe years. Wo
ditc l our luui in this maun -r, and
plant lruit trees on tlit! embankment,
i’ho trees aro loss in the way hero
than elsewhere, and as tho land be
comes worn, tho trees are in the prop
er place to get tho most nourishment.
Alter a few yoars r 'the roots also pre
vent the embankment from washing
away. We know of a twenty acre
field, ditched in this manner some
throe or four years since, that is now 1
a series of boautiiul terraces. This
field was considerably broken, but is
now almost as level as a floor. Trees
are planted in tho lower edge of the
terrace, as recommended above.
Should the embankments be disposed!
to wash badly, slant the embankment i
to about lbrty-five degrees aud sod, or
allow it to grow up in grass. I»t the
fruit trees btaud iu from the sod some
two feet. Small fruit can also bo
planted profitably on tho embank
ment, especially strawberries and rasp
berries. They grow well here; al
ways have a deep soil, with moisture
generally, and at the same timo not
subject to injury from excessive wet, |
as the terrace acts as an underdrainer, j
Grape vines do exceedingly well,!
planted on the lower edge of these
terraces.

General Ryan has just returned
from Cuba, end brings fresh news
lrom tlio war. Tho New York ISun
has interviewed him Ryan comes
from the Cuban President on an im
portant secret mission.
tile reports tho campaign just closed
a very severe one. Do Rodas, the
Spanish commander, has had 40,000
regulars, 90,000 volunteers, all armed
The Cubans have had but 10,000
armed, but could put 100,000 men
in the field if they had arms. Arms
are the great want of the Republic
Ryan has been in thirty-three en
gagements in the last few months.—
lie represents hard fighting. So that
tlio dearth of news from that quarter
has not been from dearth of facts to
toll.
The Cubans still holds one-half of
tho richest part of tho Island. The
Republican government is working
smoothly. The people favor the Re
public, and are ready to fleck to the
light whenever arms are supplied
them. The Spaniards have destroyed
all the houses. Scarcely a reef is to
bo seen outside el the cities. The
Spaniards have perpetrated the most
appalling atrocities, outraging women
aud torturing and disfiguring men.
Ryan has been commander of the
Caiuaguay District, and states that lie
has retaliated in the same barbarous
manner and thus stopped the barbari
ties in his bai.iewick.
Ryau says the Cubans are as hope
ful and re. olute as ever. De Rodas
he alleges to have been removed from
the command of the volunteers, and
Car leva has been appointed Goveuor-
General.
A lottou from “tho Springs” says ;
‘L have observed since here many of
tho noted personages of the south,
including Davis atul Toombs, and
everywhere the best feeling, not only
tiruong them-e.ves, but toward the
-Northern visitors. and mention

seems to realize tiro situation, and
heartily to make the best of it What
