PEACHES, continued. having traveled 800 miles during warm June weather, in an ordinary basket, without damage. The tree is a tremendous grower, and bears very young ; even 2-year-olds have had good fruits. MOUNTAIN ROSE. A superb, early, white-fleshed Peach, which yearly adds to its reputation as the best of its season for home or market.
