We ask attention to the advertisement of a farm for sale in Westchester County. It has many advantages, such as a fine view of Long Island Sound, with two hundred acres of land covered with fruit of all kinds, and within less than an hour of the city.

Eugrnia ugni (pronounced Un-yee) is being elevated to importance among eatable fruits. The plant thus called is a native of Chili, where it was first notieed in the beginning of the last century, by the celebrated traveller, Father Feuillee, who published a description and figure of it under the name of Murtilla. It forms an evergreen bush, with the appearance of a Myrtle, but with darker and thicker leaves. It is also somewhat hardier than a Myrtle. The flowers (which are white, with a tinge of pink and a peculiarly waxy appearance) hang down singly from among the leaves. The fruit consists of black purple, round berries, about the size of black currants, and, when ripe, resembles, in taste, nothing so much as a mixture of the strawberry, pine-apple, and purple guava. In our opinion, it is one of the most agreeable fruits that have yet been introduced to cultivation; and although the smallness of the berries would seem an objection, yet their quantity compensates for their want of size.

One important quality belonging to the Ugni is the easiness with which it is cultivated. No reason, indeed, seems to exist why it should not be grown wherever the common Myrtle can be kept alive. When producing its fruit, however, it requires all the heat that can be given it; so that, if grown in pots, it should be placed, as soon as the flowers are set, in the hottest part of a garden, fully exposed to the heat of the sun - such as the angle of a wall facing the southwest, or in a conservatory, in the full rays of the sun; and, if out of doors, it would be as well to protect it from night cold by a temporary roof, reaching completely over the front of the bush.

These are mere suggestions; by another year, further experience will have been gained, for large numbers of the plant have been recently purchased. The fruit, which' has been tasted, and to which the above description applies, was all ripened under glass.
