fj? The following letter from the edi
tor was crowded out last week :
Col.t'MTtlA Ilol'SK, )
Philadelphia, Oct. 6th 1852. J
Although we are in the eve of an impor
tant election there seems to be but little ex.
citeinent upon this ubject, and this I believe,
18 the case throughout the stale. There ure j
many uhigsin this city who refuse to vote
for Gen. Scott. This is admitted, but it is
said that in the western part of the state,
there will be a large gain lor the whig can
didate, ft will certainly lequire somo con
siderable gain in that quarter to give the
state to Gen. Scott, and without it, he will
eland but a sorry chance for an election.
In regard to Canal Commiesion there is some
disaffection growing out of the quarrel between
the canal board and the Pensylvania rail road
company, which may induce a number of
democrats to support the whig candidate.
The busines of Philadelphia though pros
perous, is not what it ought to be and might
be if the right kind of enterprise were shown
by ils citizens. The Pennsylvania rail rond j
is already doing much for the city, and will
do vastly more when completad, which will
be in a few weeks. But important as Unit
road is, it is not to bo compared with the
Sunbury and Erio rail road, and many of the
Philadelphians now begin to see it, and ac
knowledge the fact New Yoik is stretching
her iuprovements in every direction. She
has now two rail roads, besides the canal
connecting thai gieat city with the lakes,
while the city of Philadelphia has no connex
ion of the kind, whatever. The consequence
is, that New York has such an influx of tra
velling that the number of strangers, in that
city, during the busy seasons, is estimated
at from fifty to Eixty thousand. Notwith
standing the immense hotels, lately ei'ected,
one of which, the Metropolian, will accom
modate seven hundred persons, strangers
sometimes find it difficult to procure lodg
ings. The St. Nicholas, another hotel, even
larger than the Metropolitan, U nearly finish
ed. There is nothing in Philadelphia to
compare with this, and never will be, until
they have access to the lakes by a first class
rail way. There is a general disposition now
to aid the Sunbury and Erie Road, but un
fortunately there is a prejudice against the
present officers. Tbo stock of the Pennsyl
vania rail road is now quoted at par. The
city may, Ihereforc, be considered out of
. debt, and ought not to hesitate to subscribe
not only one million, but three millions, to
the stock of the Sunbury and Erie Rail
Road.
Fruit of all kinds, seem abundant hero
although good peaches are getting scarce,
and the grapes aje not as abundant or as
good as last season. There were statements
in the papers, a few weeks since, that the
grape ciop in Berks County had failed.
This is nut wholly true. As a general thing
the crop is not as good, but in some vine
yards, the yield is abundant, and the grapes 1 b!e a115'1"")' l' llie naa "f science,
excellent in llavor. The grapes in high
"ground, are far superior to those on the low
land. Mr. Fchr, who has a vineyard on the
hill side, near Reading, informed me a few
.(ays since when in that place, that he had
thirty acres in grapes, and that he calculated
making four hundred bands of wine this
season. Ilis vineyard is made up almost
wholly of the Isabella and Catawba varieties.
Ilis Isabellas are verv lane & much mvontor
' than any raised in our neighborhood. He ! Tlie for, after an absence of
will commence making wine in about ajst'vera' weeks lias aain returned lo his
week. The wine, as it runs from the Press pout, and just in time lo vote.
is very sweet and palatable, and is consid
ered most nutritious and wholesome. Gen.
Keirn informed me, that himself, am! a num
ber of individuals liom Philadelphia con.
lemplated spending several days at the vine
yard duiiiig the wine making season, for the
purpose of drinking the new wine and eol- ! glat
uig urean, adding inai it was a great restor

This distinguished violinist and gentle
man has purchased two hundred thousand
acres of laud in Potter county, upon which
he intends settling; a colony ol Norwegi
ans, his country men. We had the good
fortune to meet Mr. Dull in Philadelphia
last week, and a few davs aftei wards tra
velled in company with himself and John
F. Cowan, Esq , of Williamsport, on our
way home from the cily. Mr. Dull in
company with Mr. Cowan, from whom he
purchased most of his laud, was on his
way to the new settlement where several
hundred emigrants had already arrived.
and more were daily expected. Ole Dulls
whose fame as a violinist, extends through
out the civilized world, is a remarkable
man, and very different fiom nearly aj
distinguished artists, most nl whom alter
making a fortune, retire to live a lile of
extravagance and luxury. Mr. Dull is a
thorough republican in principle, and has
already made application for citizenship.
He calls himself a Pennsylvanian and is
anxious to extend to as icauy of his coun
tryman as possible the blessings of a free
and happy government. Mis whole soul
seems lo be wrapped up in his new colo
ny, and if we mistake not, a lew years
will show that he will have conferred, not
only a great b'essing upon his countrymen,
but a corresponding benefit upon hi adopt
ed State, by int olui'ng a large body cf
hardy and industrious people, who will
oon make the wilderness blossom as the
rose. In personal appearances Ole Bull is
youthful looking, tall and rather slender,
with light hair and complexion, gentle
manly in his address, and plain and unosten
tatious in his manners. A short time since
his new town, Oleona, was duly baptised
