The weight of three of them is nine ounces each: the weight of one of the other two, nine ounces and a half; and the weight of the fifth, eight ounces. — Besides these, there is one, which grew on the graft brought from America this year, cut off the tree in Decem ber, and put on here on the 27th of April. This apple weighs rather more than seven ounces. Every one knows how bad this year has been for the ripening of apples; and yet my apples (and not against a wall), appear to be perfectly well ripened.-Mind, it is only thirty months since I put on my first graft. My wood shews for beautiful bloom. I have three Newtown Pippins. They are not full size. They weigh, however, seven ounces each, and the whole of the wood that they grew on, I mean the whole from the place where the grafting took place, does not, I am sure, and did not with the leaves on, weigh half an ounce.
