At the tri'dlni? f the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society held lat evening, a larsre audience was prescnu The pitnripal essay read was by Mr. A. 8. Kuller, of New York, the suryect, "(.rape Culture." As Mr. Fuller i tue author ot one of our tandard works on the Dianafremetit of the vino, jonslderable interest was manifested to hear buy views on the present occasion. After a brlel rclcrenco to the history of the vine In America, he pasd to the subject of the LOCATION OF VINBYARD. The essayist believed speculative or theoreti cal knowledge wa eapable of deciding whether any particular locality wag favorable or other- wice. kuc.-i-h or failure depended on such prob:ematn nl hitluences that only actual expe- particular pot for grapo Rrowinif. From the difluslon ol the irrape all over the United States In a wild state, he concluded that there was no location where diflieuities were experienced that could not be made successful by careful at tention. Hill sides the expenence ot all na tions had proved to be as a rule more favorable than plama. fold currents, or situations so vorable l CrP8le mra cnlilnB werc Ullfa- BOIL. He considered another debatable topic. He had seen grnpes doiim well la almost ever? kind of soil in the Union, and hIho failures in all, but on the whole preferred a light, gravelly or calcareous one. It was not necessary to loosen the soil three or four leet, as otten re ceumended, but it wa best to make it twelve or eighteen inches deep. FERTILIZING. Excessive manuring was a great evil. If the oU was rich enough to make shoots six to ten leet a jear, it needs no manuring. Vines which make from hftccn to twenty leet pervearsel lom keep heulthy, especially if such naturally strong glowers as Delaware. It was. therefore dangerous for a novice to follow any directions of others as to fertilizing his particular soil. It were better lor him to use his own judgment . no matter how immature it might be. until a httle experience on that location had been gained. When fertilization was resorted to he preferred a compost of two parts "muck" to one part barn-jard manure, inverting the propor tions lor very heavy soils, always using a handful of bone-dust when planting each vine. CULTIVATION. He advised keeping the surfarp clean and never, under any circumstances, growinz'anv tbing else among the vines. J PROPAGATING. Raisers of new kinds sacrifice the quality of their young plants by foicing them in stron" heat. In oroer to tret the greatest (juantity in the shortest time. Unless t. vine have at least six inches of ripe or brown wood, It should be con sidered worthless for practicil purposes. Cut tings of everything but Delaware and Norton's Vireinia grow readily In the open air. All cut tings frhould be made in the fall, as soon as the wood is ripe, using pieces with two or three ejes as cuttings, burying them in the ground during the winter, and plant early In spring. In leep rich soil. PLANTING. The essayist recommended bhortening long roots to one foot or elehreen inches lroin the main stem. There are two systems one, plant ing as shallow as possible; the other, the oi l Roman plan ot setting eiehtcen Inches deep and never allowing surface roots to grow. He pre ferred the shallow plan. PRUNING AND TRAINING. He thought light pruning tended to overbear ing in the Rrape. He would prune severely to connteiact this evil. No experienced vineyardist ever recommended taking off leaves in summer. Six by eight ite. was the best distance, anrLia some instances four by eight would do wfTre the dote pruning he recommended would be cameo om. In training he "preferred the horizontal pjsiem, aim spur pruning, Because It can Dutf e duced to an exact science, or the nearest to it of any system now made known." It is not. th sstem that will give the greatei weight on a given space, but by it grapes, for duality cannot be excelled. The Taylor, Clinton, and other very s'rong growing kinds, did not, however, bear well when close pruned. The tan system, with longer spurs, was better, and if still more Iruit was wanted, use the bow system of Mr. Husmann. Improper pruning, or no pruning at all, by inducing overbearing, was the cause of innumerable lailnres. Those who bought vines for "immediate bearing" usually had their wish. They had an immediate and only a first and tha lt crop. A great error is to leave too long canes on oune and weak vines. The lower buds do not then push at all, and only a tew bunches are gathered from sickly shoots at the top. On the PROFITS OF ORAPE CULTURE, Mr. Fuller said much injury had been done by reckless statements of enormous profits which no one, or at best but few, by extraor dinary good fortune, could ever realize. Those who hud vines to sell were not the ones to ques tion as to the profits of grape culture. They had not the experience of fruit raisers, who alone could give the facts. The plant raisers could give the Agates. Hundreds were unsuc cessful, vet some had made Irom one to two thousand dollars per acre, clear proflt. The trouble usually was, people undertook too much; five acres was enough for one man to be employed In for one year. Thousands of dollars were spent in preparing the ground, and buying and planting vines, but none, or little, on buying the brains to care for them after wards. With regard to the SELECTION OF VARIETIES only local experience could be safely followed. The Concord was the only grape that had been lound to do well in any place where a crape wonld do at all. Others, like Hartford Proliic. Israella, Creveling, Iona, Adirondac, Rogers' Hybrids, etc., were fine grapes if, after trying them, they were found to do well. For a a amateur he would name besides Concord, as a certainty, the following for trial: Delaware, Creveling, Catawba, Adirondac, Israclla atcer finding out those which suit the location, plant largely of them. Your neighbor's experience may save your own experiments. That grapes can be grown to an Immense profit, by "some," is now a fixed fact. The fault with our people is they think some things can be done by "others" as well as by "some," and so they can if. with their money and enter prise, they will add a little paips-taking expt rience, Death of a Philadelphia In ventob.

The first hcture of the Franklin Institute Winter oune was delivered last evening by Professor Herry Morton, and wss largely attended. The Miblcet was, "Elect ricity and its Luminous tflect," and the Professor treated of the pre sent theory of electricity, and the various means lor developing the force-first, by friction; second, by induction; and third, by galvanic induction. Vailons experiments were made; gome of them with the new Holtz machine, the most powerful instrument ever Invented; other by the Ruhmkorfl coll, capable Irom its power of producing a fatal effect with a single spark. Luminous phenomena, most brilliant in appear ance, were developed with both of these ma chines, and called forth very lively manifesta tions of pleasure from the audience. Ykstf.bday'8 List of Accidents. Jonathan Longootem, thirty-one years old, residing in Hamilton street, west of Nineteenth, while sawing stone yesterdav. at Whitnp a- Co.'s works, had au arm fractured. Richard Larcombc, thirty years old, residing at No. 840 Passyunk road, bad one ot his hands crushed by a steam engine vesterday. John Bryns, thirty-five years old, residing at No. 106 Carpenter street, had a leg fractured yesterday, by a shook of staves falling on it at a cooper-shop in Otsego street, near Washington avenue. William 8ullivan, fifty years old, residing in Ledger place, while working at one ol the wharves on the Delaware, fell and broke an arm. All the above were admitted into the Hospital. Estimate of the Tax Rate for 1867. The Committee on Finance ol Councils have not yet received the estimates for 1867 from all the departments, and therefore cannot determine the rate of tax for 18C7. Some of the commit tee are anxious to reduce the present amount to $3'50 on the $100; but others rontend that nothing less than the present rate will do, because of extraordinary appropriations made during 1866, which will causo a deficiency of ."bout $1,000,000, which includes $600,000 to be paid the State for back taxes. The probability is that the committee will agree to repon to Councils the rate of $4 on the $100. Slight Fibe.
