the size of the Concord Rape, but, at, the same
time the quality of the fruit will be impaired.
• We have in mind as we write a :vineyard of
choice• varieties, the Owner of which made
preparations for planting by trenching to the
depth of two andn half' feet,- and enriching the
soil with every Conceivable feftilizer he could
obtain. . The result was ittmense_. growth of
vine and enormous showy clusters for a few
years, and then disease leading to a gradual
failure both of vines and fruit.
It cannot be repeated too often, that the
main object of the vigneron, in our cold cli
mate should be to get well-ripened, healthy
wood that will stand ' the , winter unprotected.
No_vine_that is forced or over-stimulated can
produce such wood, and that is why caution in
the; se of manure is necessary.

• For established vines,the Pelaware alone ex
cepted, wood ashes and bone' dust in moderate
quantities are the strongest 'fertilizers we are
ilisposed to employ. 'These contain all the in
organic food ner.e.sary,for th o ",growth' Of 'the
grape, and do not stimulate the vine to, excess.
The insane policy of cutting off the upper tier
of vine -roots, laid down in some foreign man
uals as essential to success, has never been
adopted here,' and never will be. Any pro
cedure that tempts the roots to go more than a
focit below the surface is ill advised. The .
ninieber of . vines that should' be grown
upon an acre, and consequently the space that
each vine shall cover, are still disputed points,
and the consideration*of these leads directly to
the questions' of training and pruning. • . '
`After.reading almost everything that has
been published of late years on these tOoes;i
and after testing carefully numerous methods
tmining with a great many varieties; we
have come to have certain fixed ideas with re
gard to the proper distance between and
the'• closeness with which • they, should' be
pruned. We believe that great mistakes are
made in crowding too many•vines into a Oven
space, in cramping 'the growth 'of. each Judi
vidual.vine' and in pruning too close. We do
not belong to what may be called in a double
sense the natural school of vignerons, who ad
vocUtc•allowing.grape-vines to straggle at will,
over the tops of trees; but at the' same time we
do not'think that the extremely close, syste
matic pruning laid down in many -manuals will
ever answer for most of our , Vigormis native
kinds. . •
The number of vines . planted on an acre in
France varies from one thousand to more thaw
thirty thousand. Here, the testimony of the
most experienced growers assures us that the
smaller 'of these numbers is.too large.. Tha
growth of some of our Vines strikes a foreigner
with amazement, annual shoots sixteen feet
long not being uncommon. This strong
growth makes it necessary to give our vigormii
vines room enough to spread. If the rows are
six feet'apart, the distance between the vines
should not be less than twelve feet for the
Coneord, nor less than 'sixteen for vines so
rampant as the Rogers No. 15.
Many cases are on record where every other
vineyard has been removed, and a year .or
two later half the, remaining vines taken
away,' with good eflect. We have no
space to discuss the various methods of, train
ing and pruning now in vogue. The simplest
is generally the best,' and the simplest and
easiest is, that of a horizontal arm near the
ground, with upright canes, which are cut back•-:
to three or four buds every year after fruitino%
We say three or four buds, not two, as most of
the text-books teach; for 'it is beginning to be
knoWn that in Many vines the best chistets are
produced ftom the third or. fourth eye above
the old wood. We believe this is espeCially
true of the. Diana ..and the Concord, and in
pruning vines of theSe varieties we are careful
to leave bearing wood enough.
Some men - of- experience, Mr. George Hus
roam in particulai, are strenuous advocates of
summer pruning, or pinching the: ends of the
yohng shoots during the stinuner, and they"
even. advise beginning as / Soon as four or live

we have begun, we have gteat confidence in
what is known as the strict Guyot system.
This consists in_ renewing t.lte horizontal arm_
annually, by cutting away the old arm at the
end of-the-seasonand-bending-down-intolts
_ place a:new_cane that has been alloWed to
grow for this purpose from near the base of
the vine. The next year's fruit is raised from
the fiesh, vigorous buds of this new arm, and
at the same time a new strong shoot is grow
ing to take the place of the. bearing cane the
folloWing season. This method has advantages
apparent at a glance to the experienced culti
vator.
Any system of pruning is better than none
It takes but a year or two for a neglected Vine
to get beyond the reach of the shears, and to
become a tangled mass of half-ripened wood
and useless shoots. In this case it is often
simper to cut the vine down and start afresh
than to try to bqng it into shape by trimming.
Grafting the vine is a matter which tries the,
skill and patience of cultivators. Some recom«.
mend the spring as the proper time for graft
ing,. and others the month .of November.
Grafting below the soil is preferred by • some,'
and others succeed best six feet above the sur
face, but we must say that in both methods
failure is the rule. We regret this,
or any approach to certainty in thiS
process would be -of immense value.
proof we may mention that we knew a
small two-bud cutting to be grafted on a vigor
ous stock in June, and to make from each bud
a strong cane ten or twelve feet long the same,
season. In the case to which we refer the canes
were layered the next spring, and the result was
that in fifteen months from the time the tiny
scion was inserted the experimenter had
forty strong, well-rooted layers, mirth,
as it happened, a dollar apiece. If he
has] propagated his two buds in the usual
way, by heat, he would have had two
small vines instead of. forty large ones.' We
cannot 'help thinking that: at some time the
`problem of grafting will •: be 'solved;;iindi - if:lit.

have never yet seen good 'grapes sold at a price
which did not well repay the grower.l_. .
Discredit has been. brought upon the grape
cults re:of late by exaggerated statements of
the profits it. affords.: Exceptional returns , in,
favorable years have been cited as an average,:
while short, crops and failures have been kept
out . of.sight. We have seen vineyards in this
State,'.that have borne crops of seven tons to
the acre, but it would, be unfair to reckonrthe
profit of any ,vineyard on a basis of more than
three and a half tons.to the acre. ,' , ..,: .'
, Grape cultitre will not. suffer when its profits
are fairly compared with those of any ordinary
crops;fafzn and such a coMparison is, it seems
to us, the only way of getting a', correct es
,timate.' We can safely reckon that Seveu.hun
dred Coneord vines will produce, onan acre of
growadAllirty-fivehundredpoutids each year.
These, if sold forf'five cents per pound, will
give a better return than any field of torn,with
lesS than half the,aimital outlay for labor and
manure than the corn would require. We may
add that, while twice' five pounds to a well
established vine is only a fair crop, five cents
per pound is an extremely low Nice for grapes
()tiered for sale in decent' condition. The low
est wholesale price of Concord grapes in the
BOston market last year was twelve cents per
pound.
There is a steadily increasing demand, for
good fruit, and we may even say for frui of
every kind. As the supply increases,
the price
rises, showing that the supply provokes - the de
mand. The price of strawberries, for example,
—of which one Boston firm sold twelve thou
sand boxes in one day last year—is three 'or
four times as great as it was when only a third
or a quarter as many strawberries were raised
as now: Poor fruit, hastily gathered:and care
lessly packed, is alwayS abundant and cheap,
but it remains to be proved that the public-will
not prefer to pay the very highest price for the
best article.
The literature of grape minim in this coun
try is already respectable, and, is annually in
creasing.
Of the books we have named above, Mead's
Manual is the most pretentious, and Hus
mann's is the most useful. Da Brenirs trea
tise contains - precepts and directions wholly
unsuited to Our vines and climate, and the text
and notes of the American edition make to
,gethera curious mosaic of contradictory advice.
The monthly horticultural journals afford the
best index of the interest felt iwgrape-growing
in this country ; and it often happens that half
their reading Matter, and a very large Propor
41on Of their advertisements, relate to, grapes

Important as is the growing of grapes for use
as and pr efitable as it can be 'shown - to be,
the cultivation of grapes for wine will always
take precedence of it. Little by little, from
feeble and uncertain beginnings, wine-making
in this country has risen to be a very inipor
tant element of the national prosperity. It
promises to take rank by the side of wool
growing,
a cotton-raising, and the production Of
breadstuffs.
. _
It used to be the fashion, and may be custo
mary even now among those who can indulge
themselves in the choicest products of European
Vineyards, to sneer at wines of domestic
growth; but as the question, " Who reads au
American book?" is no twiner asked in derision,
so the - query, "Who drinks American wines ?"
is becoming a thingof the past. To say nothing
of the Californian vineyards, in which mainly
vines of European origin are grown, we can
reckon at once at least fifteen kinds of grapes,
wines made from which, and presumably pure,
are now offered, for sale in quantity. Other
varieties, such as the lona and some seedlings
not yet disseminated, have produced wine of
the highest quality, but not. yet in quantity suf
ficient to become an article of trade.
There is of course much dilierence of opinion
as to the comparative value of the various wines
produced east of the Rocky Mountains, and
we are perhaps justified in noticing some of
these varieties in detail.
Although compelled at once to struggle
against the attacks of disease, and to cOnapete
with newer varieties, the Catawba grape still
furnishes a very considerable proportion of our
native wind. It is unfair to speak ill of the

We do not attach much importance to this,
award, for •it is absurd to Select

as ours, and which etinipriseS' regions
so different in climate and soil as are Maine
and Florida. The grape itself is hardy, healthy
and produCtite. Its juice , 'is of a remarkably'
`dark colorf and produces -wine of. great body:
and fulness. The sparkling ,Ives Champagne,
so called, is very peculiar by reason of its color,
and, though much praised, is, in our opinion,
a very inferior wine, being either artificially
sweetened, or else not sufficiently fermented.
Wine from the IVe's grape, has, a very marked
aroma, agreeable to many, but not relished by
critical judges.
We rank the Norton's Virginia grape much
higher than the Ives. It-gives-a=-red—wine—of—
very high charaCter, harsh at first, but Which
improves With age; and gradually attains a
_good degreenf refinement. In its peculiar claks
it is surpassed, in om. judgMent, by only one
wine, and that made froin a grape as yet
little known. This vitkiety, the Cynthiana,
originated, we are assured, in the far West,and
has been successfully cultivated in Missouri. It
produces a red wine, less harsh and more re
fined than the NOrton's Virginia, less cloying
than the Ives,and poSsessing a delicate bouquet
entirely its own. We hadllie good fornine to
taste some of the earliest samples made by Mr.
George Husmann, and we believe that the
popularity of the Cynthia= will increase' as
fast as the wine becomes known. We haVe
the vine under trial, but learn that its grape is,
unfortunately, unsuited to our season and cli
mate.
The Diana, when well ripened, prodlices
wine resembling the best German hocks, but
richer and less acid. It is far superior to the
Catawba wine, but its bouquet is so peculiar
as to be offensive to some good judges.
'The juice of the Diana mixed with' that of
the Delaware gives a sparkling-wine of very
great richness and excellence, but hardly dry
enough to be called a Champagne of the first
rank. The unmixed juice of the Delaware
gives a wine of which any v/gnerOn or any
country may well be proud.. A page of de
scription would hardly suffice to set forth its
merits, and even then we should ' not give a
clear idea of its 'value to any one ' who had
tested it. It must suffice then, to say that the
wine is rich, pure and 'delicate, and that it pos
sesses in an eminent degree all the qualities of
a line sherry, with an aroma and bouquet of
its own. It needs several yeari' . ripening to
bring it to perfection. Sparkling Delaware is a
choice and delicious wine.
As yet but little, wine has been made front
the lona. The grapes have been too scarce,
and too highly prized for the table, to admit of
their being set aside and saved for wine. The
'little which has" been made' has shown such
surprising excellence, and such an assemblage
of high qualities, as to astonish even those whp
were familiar with the grape, and who had not
conseqnently hoped that it Would be as good
for wine as for immediate use. We do not pro
pose to give an extended analysis of its merits,
but may simply say that the samples' we have
tasted surpass. all Delaware wine; and justify
us in believing that we' have at last found a
grape which will enable us to rival in this
country the very. choicest and most famous
products of the vineyards of the Rhine. Bet
terjudges than ourselves do not think this
belief extravagant or visionary.
One of Mr. Bull's seedlings, not yet made
publid, produCes a very fine port wine, and
among the others are some entirely devoid of
pulp and giving great promise as wine grapes.
The Rogers Hybrid No:'l is said to make a fine
sparkling wine, and we have received from Mis
souri a new seedling grape, called the Hermon,
from the place of itsTorigin, that ‘rives, it is said,
a genuine Madeira wine. If this is true there
is hardly a European Wine of any rank that has
not its counterpart in this country, and - very
few that 'have not their equals. Champagne,
sherry, hock, Tort, Burgundy, and, we are told,
-Madeira wines; all have their representatives
here ; and when we reflect that until within
a ver r few rears the Catawba and
grapes. Were the Chief sources of oaf• mil
we - may - well - stand amazed at the rapidand
steady progress that has been made. Inalien
able associations will always cluster around the
verTnameS of some - choice-foreign-wines;
and
surround them with an illusive halo hard to
_
dispel; but we believe that the close of the ned
decade will nbtonly - bripg - d;ivastimprovemeut
in the already excellent product of Our vine 7
yards, but will see a great revolution in, the
public taste, and American wines ranked as
their merits deserve.
The question which just now seems to con
vidse the grape-growing world, and which' has
led to disputes matched only by those of the
Big-endians and Little4indians is, Shall
sugar be added before fermen
tation to such grape-juice as contains an
abnormal quantity of acid, and is at the same
time deficient in saccharine matter? It is stud
that grape-skins contain an amount of coloring
and flavoring matter sufficient to make, if
sugar and water enough be added, three times
as much wine as is ordinarily obtained from a
given Ny eight of grapes. Those who do not
hold this extreme belief yet assert that, when
grape-juice has too little sugar and too much
acid, it'is perfectly fair to bring the amount of
sugar in the juice up to the quantity which,
when fermented, will produce the percentage
of alcohol to the given wine. Others, say that
it is better to raise no grapes than to cultivate
varietes whose juice is too poor to make good
wine without factitious and unnatural aadi7
tions. They declare, too, that the harmonious
mingling, of qualities which constitute
perfect wine can never result from a
mixture of sugar with poor grape;juice. We
are not able to decide which side is right, but,'
while:we lean towards those who firvor the use
of' the'pure juice, we must own that the temp
tation to double the product of an acre by the
aid of sugar and water must, be very Arcing,
indeed, to any grower Whose sole aim is profit.
lnnothing woMe than sugar were added to
'gape-Ylice in this country there , would be little
cause : for Complaint. do notrkno.w indeed
that anything else 'is added, but unpleasant
rumors -are afloat respecting the treatment to
Which :the. California wines and those of Ohio
are Subjected before being offered for sale:. We
hope that these rumors are unfounded; and tliat
wine-makers will find it aSprolitfible, as it surely
must be, pleasant, to furnish the public . with
pure wines, the genuine product of uncontami
nated grape-juice.
The price of our American wines is still far
too high, but when a competent writer esti
mates that we have in this conntry one Million
of acres of VineyardS, with two millions more
planted but not yet in beaming, we take courage
.and look hopefully for Ward to a day ,of lower
rates. To be more specific, we say that we
shall not be satisfied that the minimum price
has been reached untila, good hock or Sauterne
wine—Lam kinds in which we seem to be most
deficient and which are, in 'our opinion, e)r.
treithely'desitable-Hcan be bought for legs than

should not be reached immediately,

3lr. Bull goes on to say :
, `Now, if under these circumstances of low
prices, and almost 'Willie seasons unfavorable,
in Germany grape-growing is still the most,
profitable agricultural pursuit„;. I think we may
go on with the absolute assurance that We can
not fiiil to succeed in making the crop profita

,than any. other crop;
and Very possibly we may :find,' the alternative
that Will keep our children at tome. Grape 7
growing is tie poetic phase of agriculture. The
culture is easy, the harvest is delightful. Ex-,
cept ploughing the land once or twice during
the season, the women and children could take
the whole care of the vineyard, and when at,
last the cropis harvested the product frem• a
single acre is often more than the product from
all the rest of the farm. '
"Take another point ef view. Many a poor
man finds it difficult to support his family and
educate his children, as the circumstances of
the time, and the advancing standard smite it
necessary they sholffil be educated, and spends,
his life-blood in merely keeping - the Place which
he has bought, and succeeds in educating Isis
children only by the most severe, toil. Let
him have his half acre or acre of grapes, from
which he would getpossibly $1,500--$2,000 has
been realized, = surely $5OO , per annum ; and
you can see hoW that moment you lift-that
man, who was a slave to the ground, to com
petency and independence. His income will
then give him leisure for reading", enable him to
buy hooks and cultivate his love for art and
literature, and make him such a man as an in
telligent American citizen - Ought to be:. I con , -
feSs, gentlesien, `that - this aspect of :the ease
gives me more pleasure than all others."
Mr. Bull's theories . and hopeS might be
passed by as visionary, if we did not; know
that his arguments and example have induced
many a farmer in his immediate neighborhood
and throughout the State to plant vineyards,
and thus to enjoy the profits of this new enter
prise.
- In the tithes to Which we look forward the
grapes that we prize now will be 88t :Wde for
earlier and better kinds; the wines whose ex
cellence is knovin now, but to a few will be
common property; and even -in these North
eastern States we shall look neither to Ohio for
our grAsgsosor to Germany for Our wines.
From Maine to Texas zealous experimenters
are at work Planting - SeedS land- 'Striving-to get
varieties of the grape better. than any , we now
possess. • Some carefully plant a few seeds in
--wilower-pot ffi,their•parlor -while-others
them in like wheat, by, the bushel, over broad
acres: Some are earnestin the belief - that - the
: - great grape of the country--will--be a -hybrid,
others thatit will be the result of direct platit
ing and all are pressing towards a common
goat with• so much energy and hope tluSt we
cannot doubt that the triumphs of the past de
cade, brilliant as they 'are; will be eclipsed by
those of the next ten years'. We would aid
the work by precept and 'example, and invite
our readers to join us in what has proved a
source of yearly increasing satisfaction and
Measure.

LL. B. New Yolk: Leypoldt, L Holt. 1869. pp. iv.
An Ilionnrable-Act.-
The following story 'is told by a paper in St
Paul, .Minnesota: •
"Maily years ago a lady in Matsachusetts con
tracted a small debt for certain ticles of mer
chandise to the payment of which she pledge
her word.. Circumstances over which she had
to control prevented its payment for some years.
At last she, with het family, came West, and
before leaving the old AMmestead in Massa
chusetts she arranged for the settlement of the
claim against her. Ten years after, she returned
'to MitssachuSetts, 'inn'', to het ,greatt regivt
ascertained that the debt .had. not been paid
through neglect of those whom she entrusted
with that duty. ' - •
"Iler credithr, she learned, had also gone to
the giTat 'West, and Was Opposed to be at csident
01 Chicago. A few weeks ago She wrote a lettet
In regard to the debt which she SO Much desired
to pay, and addressed it to Chief*, 111. In due,
thue:aM fillSWer was: received from the
bas beeome an active business man of that
. bustling city: lie aeknoWledged4he receipt of
the letter, and, hi reference to the • said: .
3.7,03 r must, he aware that I have no legal Cl.ii;ii'
ttpan yon, as the debt \‘'as outiaWedyeats, ago.
Do not distress yeufelf to Pay that old
poSt-oflice order was at once purchased at ,
the St. Paul (Alice, and remittal to Chicago as
a settlement Of the debt." . •
Roi , i? to Treat a ratothig•loettion:
A physician in 'Hearth and' Litithes*: "It
is surprising how ear , erly eVery-botly rushes at 'a
fainting person, and strives him up, and
especially to keep the head erect he must
be an instinctive apprehension that if a per Son
seized with a fainting or other fit'-fall into the'
recumbent position,. death' is mOr9 - irimaine l tit.

klood is propelle43,ollllpartS of the body by the
:action of the heart, yet it is still under the influ
ence of the lawb of gravitation. In the erect
position, the blood ascends to the head against
gravitation, and the supply to- the .brain is
diminished, as compared with the recumbent
position, the heart's pulsation being equal. If,
~then, youplace a person ,in a , Bitting position,
,whose heart has nearly ceasedto beat, his brain
will 'fail to receive blood, while'" SiOli : lay him

they are thrown."

DEMME, 4.—Last night a serion.4
riot occurred ID this city. beginning et an out
door Radical meeting, to celebrate the tr 4
uniph of the Radical candidate in this Com
gressional district. The, meeting was a large
one, and all composed of colored persons, ex= -
cept a few white leaders. During the whole
of yesterday rumors were, in - circulation that
the negroes were very much exalted, defiant
and threatening.. and intended to burn the
Democratic candidate (Col. Mann) in, effigy.
_Several_ citizens_calledon the and-some
of the Radical leaders, and advised them that
it would be better to, postpone the meeting,
for if the threat of burning, in effigy was car:
tied mit, the white people could not be re
strained from an attempt to resent the indig
nity bv force. It wax thought these repre
sentations had, had the. desired effect, and
there would he no - meeting.
At 8 o'clock, however, the tar barrels were
lighted, and the negroes began to flock in un
til they swelled into a crowd of a thousand or
fifteen hundred. Many, it. is alleged, came
with guns, and mist all with concealed arias,
pistols, knives and razors.
Nothin occurred to disturb.the harmony of
the meeffn g
g, except the inflammatory speeches
of the leaders, anti! about 10 o'clock, when a
jot'ose dispute between two citizens, on a sul.r.
ject entirely foreign to politics or the meeting,
attracted some, attention, and in passing up to
see,what it was about, a white man is said to
Rave accidentally trod on the foot of a colored
man: Just as the altercation about this was
settled, a pistol shot was heard, and this was
the Signal for a general firing. The whole
crowd dispersed immediately, hut the firing
%vas continued a few moments as the crowd
scattered, and in ten minutes a dead quiet
reigned, broken only by the tread of the white
,atrols.
A detachment 41 United States troops w
stationed at the guard-house, at the req of
the Mayor, in anticipation of trouble. hey
took no part in the adray,exeept to march up
town to look after and put a stop to the firing.
It is not known who tired the first shot. It
was the natural , result of the excitement.
There were pot over one hundred white . men
aslookeri-on at the mectine •
The Cafmalties,were -small considering the
number of shots and, the close quarters. Many
shots must have "been fired in the air. • Three
negroes were killed outright; four police otli
cers,..were wounded, and live negroes and
three white men were wounded:.

(From tho 'Utica Observer, Aug. 4.l
The Philadelphia - North American gives a
rumor, current in Philadelphia, that the
Delaware and lindkon Canal Company rid
tire Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
'Railroad Company will 'shortly follovir the
Pennsylvania. Coal' - Company in" resuming
work at their mines in the anthracite region;
and that by the end of this week the entire
coal region of the' State:will be again actively
at work.
(From the Richmond Whfa of August 4
: There is as - trong probability that the price
of anthracite coal - will ' recede from present
figures, rather than advance, with the ap
proach of autumn. The speculators and col.;
Hers who imagined that they could control
the trade to suit their own grasping designs,
have discovered that "they have overdone the
thing," and provoked the repeal of the duty
on foreign coal. We learn from the Philadel:
phia NOTIII American that "in the Schuylkill re-"
moil all parties seem to be thoroughly aware
of the mischief that has been done, and of the
danger threatening,. and they are working
with zeal and effect to niShtheir coal to mar
ket in immense quantities: They have al
ready. done wonders in making up lost
ground."
It is estimated that before the end of August
the increase in the supply twill equal at least
six hundred thousand tons over the supply of
Last year for the same period. All the 00l-
Hems are now at work in 'the different coal
regions, except two Companies in the Scranton
region. '
It was recently, stated that the Clover Ijill
Coal Company had decided to offer the pro
duct of their mines at lower rates than it has
ever been sold at heretofore, but the official
announcement has not yet appeared. Before
another year has .passed away we hope that
the city will be abundantly supplied with Can
nel coal from the Kanawha mines.
