mong the many attractions
at and contigions to Brenham,
to awaken the admiration ot the
visitor or stranger, and ta in
spire the pride of the citizen.
Oak Hill Nurseries com'iiand
what they justly deserve, a cpn-Bpicuou-place
iu the foreground.
Situated on a beautiful emin
ence a mile west ot'the court
house, the view a3 one approach
es the grounds, is perfectly las
cinating. For the last qu irter
ot a mile approaching the
ground-:, the road leads up a
grad , rising gently and regu
larly, the whole scene being
calculated to call up in the vis
itor's mind s oino enchanting
chapter of some favorite author
whose f.irte is to describe the
gorsms beauties that nature
ha3 distributed on earth, with
such lavish had.
Nature and art have "united
happily and harmoniously, at
Oak I fill, to mould the useful
and the beautiful, and combine
them in most attractive shape.
As 3"ou enter the grounds, a
matter ot fifty yards from the
main entrance, on each side ot
the broad walk, is .a spacious
green hous", temptingly invit
ing you to enter and rest it you
are weary, or if you are not
thus, to quietly inhale tlie odor
of flowers of richest fraguance,
or least the eye on tint, where
nature herself scorns to liavi
striven to surpass any of her
former achievements. But as
mm cannot liv-j alone by that
which gratifies the sight, or
quicken3 liis pulses of delight,
we will leave these for the pres
ent, and ask the reuler to go
with us to those parts of the
grounds where the palate can
be gratified, promising- him to
return to the gieen and hot
hon3e3, before tking leave of
this inviting resort.
First we come to that part of
the nursery devoted to apples.
From the earliest civilization,
apples have commanded a fair
share ot man's attention, and
have contributed largely to his
health and comfort. Some are
of the opinion that apples had
something to do with Adam's
lo-s of Eden. Now without
pretending to offer iin opinion
on this moated if not vexed
question, it nmst be admitted
that Eve only exhibited the tra
ditional good taste tha't has ever
been a distinguishing chiracter
istic ot her sex, even if she did
eat an apple.
An erroneous opinion haslong
.prevailed, that the soil and cli
mate of this portian of Texas
are not adopted t-i the growth
ot apples. It is true, the earth
docs not produce them spjnta
neously; but it is equally true,
that by the jndicious manage
ment of Mes-ra. Lockett &
El ward, a very fine apple can
be.grown in Texas. This can
not be done, however, without
regard to soil, and its proper
preparation for tin growth of
the tree. This information they
give gratuitously to every one
purchasing trjes, furnishing each
purchaser a pamphlet, in addi
tion to a catalogue of what they
grow, full and complete inform
ation as tojhc charicter of the
soil liMBhpted to the growth
of jBus fruit3, under the
hmHox Transplvnt-
ING ETC.
Ot tho early or summer ap
ples, ripening from the middle
of May till the last of August,
they have nineteen varieties. It
yon purchase trees at the Oak
Hill Nursery, you will get 110
tree that will not como up to
what it is represented, it the di
rections given for its cultivation
are followed. No amount ot
money could induce the propri
etors tcr let a mean or worthless
variety of fruit ti'ccs of any de
scription, leave their establish
ment. They aro wise for that.
The reputation they have earned
for integrity is too highly prized
by tlrenr, ami of too much value
in their business tobo forfeited
for a tew paltry dollar:-,. lu
looking over .their cntalogife, il
any particular variety strikes
yonr faucy, if it is not adapted
to this country, tlfcy will at
once tell yon its defects.
Of tho early variety of apples,
they hive fivo thousand trees of
the proper age for tnirnplanting
next fall, or at the proper ss
i sun for this p-rt of the biKin'-3
Of autumn apples, ripening
from September to November,
they hive fifteen varieties, and
no fewer thin five thousand
trees suitable for transplanting
in the tall. The winter varie
ties are all of Southern origin,
and consequently thoroughly
acclimated, and therefore a ulost
invaluable tree. These apples
ripen from October until De
cember and will keep until
May. Here is demonstration, j
that by the exercise ot reasona
ble! care and sound judgment,
the thrifty farmer m-iy enjoy
the luxury of apples all the year
rouud. Messrs. Lockett ife Ed
wards have no less than six
thousand trees of the last named
class, suitable tor transplanting
at the proper season.
They have, also, as, man y as
twelve vtricties of crab tipples
that ripen in July.
Many of these varieties are
enormous bearers, and -when
.entirely ripe, are delicious eating
fruit.
"We come next to poach trees,
aud our mouth fairly waters as
we contemplate their tempting
beauty and their delicious flavor,
summing in their taste all that
is grateful to the most delicate
palate. Of freestone peaches,
they have twentysix varieties, j
ripening from May till October.
Of clingstones, they have twelve
varieties, ripening from the
middle of Juuc to the last ot
"November.
In addition to those already
named, there are 110 towers than
twenty-five varieties of new
peaches at Oak Hill Nursery,
besides the Italian and the Van
Burcn gol-Jen dwarf,
We know it is objected by
some who do not like to undergo
the labor, and the care necessary
to grow select peaches success
fully, that grafted trees are not
full bearers. There is a great
error prevailing on this subject.
Wesaw peach trees at Oak Hill,
of the second years' growth, its
full ot peaches as the timber
was capable of supporting, when
they come to maturity. We
saw trees there of only three
3'ears' growth, which wc arc con
fident will yield more than a
bushel ot f.-nit. Now it a tree
will do that in its babyhood,
what may be expected ot it in
the healthy vigor of mature man
hood ?
These peaches arc all ot
Southern origin, and fully
adapted to our climate, soil and
seasons.
There are pears ripening from
the first ot June until winter,
embracing as many as thirty
varieties. These have been se
lected after thorough testing
from the almost innumerable
varieties of this fruit, as being
well adapted to our soil and
climate. , '
The variety of plums is ex
tensive, combining as many. as
fifteen kinds, fully adapted to
the soil and climate ot' Texas.
The variety ot nectarines,
reaches up aa high as ten, and
thsy all thrivc-and do well.
The line ot "figs takes up a
list covering eleven varieties.
This is a fruit peculiarly adapt
ed to our soil and climate, and
has never been known, for even
u single season, to fail to mature
perte;tly. One might be ex
cused tor thinking Texs was
the native country of the fig, it
tlirives and does so well licrn.
And yet, incredible to tcl',
though it is true many farmers
h xve not a tree on their prem
ises. This should not be so.
The varieties ot quinces, rasp
berries and blackberries, are
very large, like everything else
cultivated in fhfe mammoth
nursery, and aro ot Southern
growth -.and fully acclimated.
Thejtssovtnicntof mist-cllaueous
fruit is large, consisting of
almonds, chesnnts, American,
Spanish, and English walnuts,
mulberries, pomegranates, largo
sweet, and a very prolific bearer.
The great advantage one se
cures in purcf rising from these
gentlemen, is the fact that every
trpf, (vhich leaves their estab
lishment, is warranted to como
fully rip to the standard it is
represented fo be, or the money
is at once ref'inded, or the" trees
duplicated, at the option ol the
purchaser.
Til the grape department, 'they
lrave a large variety ot select
vines. Though, like conscien
tious men, as they are known to
be, thoy do-rfot recommend ilsem
ver' highly.. But the lrybred
varieties are very superior an'd
admirably adapted to our soil
aud climate. These they rec
ommend. There arc? no less
than twenty varieties- of these

A walk among tho strawberry

native of Tcsas is a very hardy,
and a very desirable, fruitj being

berry, and very large, measuring "
fully an inch in diameter. The
vine is easy of culture, and we
hope to see the time when it will

den in the State. Yet we are
not so selfish as to deire an
exclusive monopoly of all the
good things, and arc willing
"that our sister States should
share in the pleasure of the
new discovery. The white dew
berry is no donbt destined to
sprvad with great rapidity, and
will settle iu other Slates,- just
as readily as the immigrants
troin those States attach them
selves to the fertile aud healthy
soil ot Texas.
tue ornamental department
is perfectly bewildering to con
template, both on account of the
endless variety grown on the
area devoted to it. and the cap
tivating beauty of the delicately
tinted flowers. -As we wended
our way o"r the smooth walks,
"flowers on' the -right of us,
flowers on the left of us, flowers,
in fron't of 113," we thought the
view which .we took in, would
drive a French florist,- with his
mercrial temperameut, into
ecstacics ot delight bordering on
the frantic, and while we had a
Frenchman in our mind, -although
flowers are not calculated
to call up visions, other- than
gentle and pleasant ones, wc
could not avoid thinking liow
easy a matter it would have
b.-en to comply with Voltaire's
last request, ''cover me with
fljwcrs," had his career been
destined to terminate at Oak
Hill, as it is, instead -of in Paris
as it was.

on which the eve will rest with

similar purposes.
