THE GBAPE.
THE history of the grape is almost as old as that of man
—growing in its highest perfection in Syria and Per
sia, its lucious fruit and the unrivalled beverage which its
fermented juice affords, recommended it to the especial
care of the Patriarchal tillers of the soil ; and vineyards
wcreexte 1 sively planted, long tefoie orchaide or col
lections of other fruit trees were at all common.
The grapes of the old world are all varieties of the wine
grape, which, though so long and universally cultivated
and naturalized in all the Middle sod Southern portions
of Europe, is not a native of that Continent, but eame
originally from Persia. From the latter conntry, as the
civilization advanced westward, this plant accompanied
it—first to Egypt, then to Greece and Sicily, art! gradu
ally to Italy, Spain, France, arid Britain ; to which lat
ter country the Romans carried it about two hundred
years after Christ. To America the seeds and plants of
the European varieties were brought by numerous Emi
grants and Colonists, within the first titty years alter its
settlement.
The wild grapes of our own country, are quite distinct
species from the wine grape of Europe, and are usually
stronger in their growth, with longer and more entire
foilage, and in their native state with a peculiar foxy
odour or flavor, and more or less hardness of pulp ; these
traits, how ever, disappear in process of cultivation ; and
wc have already obtained from the wild type, new varie
ties of high yicility, and of superior hardiness and pro
ductiveness in this, our Northern climate.
The iißiversul experience in all countries, has estab
lished the fact that dry, warm soil is the very best for
the vine. All in this latitude may raise the grape suc
cessfully by setting the vine in a favorable exposure to
the sun. The late varieties that I offer for sale, are all
earlier than the Isabella hut one, and that ripens full as
soon as the Isabella There is 110 fruit grown, in my
opinion, in this world, more beautiful, delicious, or use
ful than the grape. If a nmn is not too lazy, lie may have
round him all the varieties of grapes in a high state of
cultivation, and his garden adorned with all the beautiful
and social productions of this fair world of ours, and a
mind that has any ftir in it at all, by little enquiry and
practice, may learn to cultivate anything that grows.
I consider the following variety of grapes the very best
to cultivate for outdoor culture in our northern climate,
out of the vast variety.
BURGUNDY.
This excellent hardy grape, is the true Burgundy grape
so highly valued for wine in France. The fruit is very
sweet and excellent, and tiie hardiness of the vine ren
ders it. one of the best varieties in the open air in this
rUniete. Buncli small, compact,(i.e. berries closely set,)
Berries midle-sized, roundish-oval, black, juice sweet,
good, ripens about 20th of Sept. Thompson gives more
than forty synonyrnes to this grape.
PRICE SEVENTY FIVE CENTS.
CATAWBA.
Tliis excellent native grape, was first introduced to
notice by Maj. AILI-M. of Georgetown, I). C., and was
found by him in Maryland. It probably has its name
from tiie Catawba river, it is one of the most productive
and excellent of our native sorts. There is is no grape
in some portions of the United States, so good for wine
or table use. Beautiful bunches, pale red, rich musky
flavor, and very sweet when ripe.
PRICE, TWENTY-FIVE CENTS.
CLINTON.
Origin uncertain, said to have originated in Western
New York, growth vigorous, hardy, and productive,
bunches compact, berries round, rather below medium
size, black, covered witli a thick bloom, eatable eight or
ten days before Isabella, frosts make them very good.
PRICE, TWENTY-FIVE CENTS.
CONCORD.
This exceeding fine, hardy native grape, was raised
from seed by E. W. Bri.r., Concord, Mass. It is very
healthy, vigorous habit, and very productive,hunch rath
er compact, large shouldi red. almost black, covered with
bloom, very sweet, it is more hardy than the Isabella,and
ripens about ten days earlier. Consequently it is very
valuable for a large Northern range.
PRICE, ONE DOLLAR.
DELAWARE.
The precise origin of this is not known, we have the
following account of it from A. THOMSON, of Delaware,
Ohio, it was brought to Delaware by a German, its ex
< ellence attracted his attention, aud an inquiry as to its
history. It was brought from New Jersey some eighteen
or twenty years ago, having been obtained from the gar
den of a French gentlemen, PAI L 11. I'BOVOST, in Kings
wood twp., Hunterdon Co., N.J. It was known in that
vicinity as the Italian Grape, sent from Italy, bunch
small, a beautiful light red, or flesh color, exceedingly
sweet, one of the most delicious, hardy grapes. It is a
vigorous grower, an early and profuse bearer, and prob
ably more hardy than the Isabella, it ripens two or three
weeks before "the Isabella. No grape more desirable
for our climate.
PRICE,THREE DOLLARS.
DIANA.
A seedling of the Catawba raised 1 y Mrs. Diana Cre
iion.of Boston, and named bv the Massachusetts Horti
cultural Society. It was announced the best and most
beautiful of American grapes, particularly valuable for its
carliness. The color is a tine reddish lilac, it hangs long
on the vines and is not injured by severe frosts ; it is ex
ceedingly productive aud v igorous. '
PRICE, ONE DOLLAR.
HARTFORD PROLIFIC.
Raised hy Mr. STEEL, of Hartford, Conn. Hardy, vig
orous and productive, bunch large shouldered, rather
compact, berry large globular, black,covered with bloom,
ripe about ten days before the Isabella.
PRICE, ONE DOLLAR.
ISABELLA.
This very popular grape, a native of South Carolina,
was brought to the North and introduced to the notice of
cultivators about the year IMB. Mrs. ISABELLA GIBUS,
the wife of Gnuitoi: (.inns, Esq., in honor of whom it
was named. Its great vigor, hardiness, anil productive
ness, with the least possible care, have caused it to be
most widely disseminated. It is probably more hardy .and
ripens earlier than the Catawba, which renders it luoet
valuable at the North. It is so well known it is liardiy
worth while to describe the beautiful fruit it bears.
PRICE TWENTY-FIVE CENTS.
EARLY NORTHERN MUSCANDINE.
This grape ripens the la.-t of Sept., is perfectly hardy.
The variety is a seedling from the native white grape
raised by PHILEMON STEVENS. Shaker Village, New Leb
anon, Columbia Co., N. Y. Bunch fine and large, light
amber color, and very delicious, very highly spoken of,
and very hardy and productive.
PRICE ONE DOLLAR.
REBECCA.
A new variety, bunches four inches long, and two and
a half inches in diamater, very compact, color light green
in the shade, or golden in the sun, and covered with a
light bloom, sweet and delicious, ripens ten days earlier
than the Isabella, keeping a long time after it is gather
ed. This superior white grape is undoubtedly a native
chance seedling in the garden of E. M. PKAKE, of Hud
son, N. Y. t proved perfectly hardy and productive. It is
not so vigorous in its habits as the Isabella or Catawba ;
but hardy and healthy, and being exceedingly beautiful,
as well as excellent, it must be regarded as a very great
acquisition, it is so well adapted to the North.
PRICE, TWO DOLLARS.
UNION VILLAGE.
This very attractive grape originated among the Shak
ers at Union Village, Ohio, and was introduced by Mr.
LONG WORTH, of Cincinnati. It is undoubtedly a seed
ling of Isabella, is very vigorous in growth, and its fruit
often nearly equals the size of the Black Hamburg. It
ripens about the time of Isabella.
PRICE, ONE DOLLAR.
The following tender variety of grape vines are all
raised under glass with one exception, the Cluiiselas. 1
have succeeded admirably in out door culture with the
vine. Black Hamburg. Ited Muscat, White Syrian, Golden
Hamburg. Bishop. White Frontignan, Black Prince, Blk.
Damask, Golden Chassclas, may be found at my garden
well rooted.
The Isabella, Catawba and Clinton, by the 100 or 1000
all well rooted, to any that wish to set vineyards at ex
ceeding low rates. I warrant all true to name, any mis
take or errors shall he made good. Ido not want some
thing for nothing. A legal thief is the most despicable.
1 wish to advertise a simple fact only—no puffing in pa
peis is wanted. By my own merit 1 stand or fall, earth
ly tribunals cannot keep me up or down.
The above grape vines can be had at the garden of
HARRY MIS'.
Mr. JOHN A. G.VMPKK being equally interested, will
travel throughout the county and adjoining counties, and
will give instructions about culture, &c., and be aide to
show drawings of some of the new varieties of grapes
which are in great demand and very scarce.

TIOGA POINT MP'VED RAILWAY HORSE POWERS.
TT7E are manufacture g the above unrivalled Powers
\y for One and Two lb.rses. under Emory's Patent,
which are warranted greatly superior to the common
Rack and Piuion Power. Our Horse Power is unequalled
for convenience by any other ;—being adapted to a great
variety of uses where power is needed : for the reason
that it is double geared, and that both ends of the main
and counter shafts have couplings alt alike, permitting
the converge g--nr wheel, pinion and hand-wheel to be
shipped from shaft to shaft and.from side to side of the
I'owerat pleasure ; by which arrangement five different
degrees of motion arc obtained without extra gearing;
and also, any desirable length and velocity of crank mo-
I tion for cross rut sawing, pumping and churning. These
Powers run easily, are strong, well finished and made
from good materials.
THRESHERS AND SEPARATORS.
These are made of various sizes. They are superior to
those of any other manufacture, of which fact anv per
son well acquainted with the heretofore leading machines,
will he satisfied upon examination. Our FANNING
MILLS, which aie the very best in market, are fitted for
power to be run in connection with the Tresher and Sep
arator.
THRESHERS AND CLEANERS,
We have succeeded beyond our most sanguine expecta
tions in inventing and constructing a combined Thresher
A Cleaner of our own, which, we believe, for two horse
power, has not its superior nor equal. It runs easily and
threshes and cleans fast, trilhaxit trailing the grain , which
is delivered in the measure cleaned til for market.
1 liese \\ innowers are simple, easily managed, and are
warranted to give entire satisfaction'.
W We are prepared to furnish at once, or on verv
short notice. THRESHERS and WINNOWERS from any
of the leading New York manufactories at the same
