Mr. Shearer, of Tuckerton, Pa., sends us a box of peaches which he has raised and named the " Globe." It is a very pretty peach ripening with and somewhat of the style of Crawford's Late. It is about the size, but rather longer in outline, and with firmer flesh; the color of the skin, light yellow with dark red next the sun, is about the same as in that well-known and popular variety.

The flavor is quite equal to Crawford's Late, which is saying a good deal in favor of the new variety.

Section of the Globe Peach.

The exact merit of a peach cannot be stated on the fruit alone. The exact time of ripening, in competition with other well-known kinds, is of great moment; a few days before or after giving value, where simultaneity would give none - then its comparative productiveness and regularity is a great item, as is also its adaptation to certain soils. As this is considerably far north to raise a peach of this fine size and good flavor, we are inclined to think highly of it, and give the enclosed outline, as some guide to its appearance. The fruit measured 8¼ inches in circumference and weighed 6½ oz. We suppose it may be much later than Crawford.
