Your Committee would respectfully report that quite a large number of fruits - have been submitted to them for examination, the past season, of which several seem worthy of general cultivation. Among these are:

1st. Princess Paragon Peach

Princess Paragon Peach; ripe specimens were received from Peters, Harden & Co., Atlanta, Ga.; ripe August 19. Fruit, large, oval - one side larger than the other. Skin, downy, yellowish-white, dotted with red, and, in the sun, nearly overspread with dull red. Flesh, white, melting and juicy. , Quality, best Freestone.

2d. Baltimore Rove

Baltimore Rove (?) Peach (from the same parties). Fruit, large, roundish, tapering a little to the swollen point, suture extending more than half around. Skin, creamy white, with red dots, and a fine red cheek. Flesh, greenish-white, red at the stone, to which it adheres, juicy, melting, sweet, and excellent- - quite equal to the Old Mixon Cling, with which it ripens, August 24.

3rd. Snow Cling

Snow Cling (also from Peters, Harden & Co.), is a very sweet and juicy Peach, of entirely too small size to merit further propagation; ripe August 20.

4th. Large White Cling

Large White Cling, from Peters, Harden & Co., bonght by them as Stewart's Late, is another Peach of the highest character, ripening about the 20th of August.

5th. The Long Grape

The Long Grape, from Dr. C. W. Long, Athens, Ga. This fruit was found, over thirty years since, by Col. James Long on his plantation, near Danielsville, Ga. The vine makes a vigorous growth. Leaf, is heart-shaped, slightly lobed, and similar in shape to the Lenoir. Bunches of fruit somewhat shouldered, very compact, of medium to large size. Skin, thin, dark purple, with a thin bloom. Berries, rather small (size of Lenoir), tender, very little pulp, pretty sweet, vinous, and very good. This Grape promises to be valuable for wine, being a most abundant bearer, and producing a good, sparkling wine. Ripens the last of August - three weeks later than Lenoir.

9th. Pace Or Columbia Peach

The largest specimen of this variety we have seen this year, was sent, in August 26, by Jeremiah Gray, of Clarke County. Too well known to need description.

10th. A Late Summer Apple
