[For tho Agitator.]
Hammondsport and .its Vineyards
We are told in Holy Writ, that after
the ifelage, "Noah began to be a hus
'handman -and planted a vineyard."—
Learning a few days since, that some of
the degcendants of Noah had imitated
the old fellows example, and had plant
ed some vineyards beside One of these
beautiful little'sheets of Water left by or
which - existed at least after the flood,
I concluded to lay aside professional la
boriand the excitement of polities for
a while, and visit
"That land of the cedar and vine."
Accordingly with a few friends, I
turned my face towards what is most
appropriately styled, Pleasant Valley,
at' the'head of Crooked Lake,-and at the
northern extremity of which, nestles
the pretty little village of Hammonds
port, and here I was fully as much de
lighted as surprised at what I saw and
learned. Upon the 111118 and slopes at
the left of thisi'village, and continuing
thence down the western side of the
lake, , was ono continuous tvrritOry of
vineyards. • These hills, too steep and
poor forordinary cultivation'and'eereal
crops, were literally covered with thou
sands of tons of that delicious ifruit,
which 'in eastern 'climes Was thq em
blem of
.plenty. I learned that, there
was between four and five thousand
acres thus covered, rind much Of it in
fine bearing condition. This land,
which but a few years ago was almost
worthless, and was frequently sold for
taxes, is now worth from one thousand
to fifteen hundred dollars per acre.—
The soil appears to be peer and' stony,
and in many places so steep as to require:
being worked in terraces, and on enquir
ing about immures, I was told that, such
parte "of -it• as would not 'raise white
beans, might jJe improved, a little by
fertilizers. From this point is annually
shipped to New York Mid other mark
ets,,thousands,of tons of,Catawbas, Di
anas, Delaware, Isabellas and other de
licious grapes. In fact' althost all the
choice grapes in this country, and many
of the finer imported varieties come to
perfection here. These lands I NVItS told,
when under good cultivation will pro
duce an average annual yield of two
and one half tons of grapes per 110 . 0,
and some times as high as four tons.—
The price per pound, for the finer sorts,
such as the Delawares, Dianas and
Joanas, Is about fifteen cents, and for Is
abellas, about eight cents at the vine
yards. Take an average crop of Dianas
at two tons per acre and fifteen cents
per pound, and you have the handsdxne
return of ,six hundred dollars per an
num for each acre. From appearances.
(although I Confess I did not ebquire,)
after the vines,are, once fairly growing,
one man can
,attend as•many acres of
grapes as"he could of corn. The prun
ing is doneln the ,winter,: and the soil
has,to bp kept, clean and clear from
Creeds. The ericidiky' may be' made,'
where is the marketfor • all this quanti
ty ofgrapes? The simple reply, is, that,
the'one-hundredth' part of the people
are notnow supplied with thiS , delicious
fruit, although this eiiterprise at Ilani
mondsport has stinted competition a
long all of those beautiful inland lakes,
iu the State 'of New York. ConneCted
with these vineyards aro several large
manufactories of native wines. , Ameng
the, most important aro , the Pleasant
Valley Wine Company, and the Urbana '
Wine Company—one taking its 'hate'
rrni-i, tholhenutiful . .vallev and the Other
wine cellars• patterneu hater 1,111.! Tang ,
models in Europe, and they‘are mak
ing, Win() to their fullest capacity, and
are constantly increasing theirfacilities
for doing so., They have taken great
pains to procure the services of some.of
the best wine l makers of Europe, gen
tlemen of general. intelligence and pe
culiar skill in their business, and are
making win s which are - pronounced
by competent judges as among the finest
in th world. The stock holderp and
offices of these companies are gentle
mien iThigh character, and they assur
ed m that these wines contained noth
ing but the pure juice of the grape, and
the most highly refined sugars purchas
ed in tue fore' of rock candy. If this is
so,' and of which I have not the Aight
est doubt, then certainly. these are far
superior to the miserable compounds we
buy under fancy names and fancy pi-
MI, 'and try to make ourselves 'believe
are pure and genuine imported wines.
I am glad to say that the various brands
of these wines are beginning, to be ap
preciated and are' shoving out the spu
rious stuff in the general market. The
demand is becoming in excess of the .
suPpiy, and large quantities are sent to
the Pacific coast even. - I was told that
the stock of the'oldest company Was ac
tually worth upon the books, five hun
dred per cent premium. The' Pleasant
Valley Wine Cellars are situated near
the head of the valley, and their best
wine is known as "Paris Exposition;"--
a name adopted by them from the high
commendation given it at the Exhibi
tion, whose name it bears. This IS a
sparkling wine, and I think is made
from the juice of four or five different
kinds of grapes, mixed in such propor
tions as to - give it the finest flavor and
quality:

Their choicest sparkling is' called "IM -1
perial i v and is made, I believe from one
kind, of . grape. , A generous rivalry is
carried • on between theSeCompantes,
each 'striving to produce the choicest
and best wines, and it 'would be very
difficult,for any one, save a connoisseur
to decide which was the best, and I as
sure you I am not enough of a wine
drinker to undertake it. ' One thing 1
do s know, that I admired tbein both,
and while I consider them as fine wines,
I felt that I was• not drinking noxious
'compounds. These companies make
other brands of sparkling and still wines
which are elegant and fine and are eon
stantly. experimenting npori distinct va
rieties of the grape and upon mixtures.
But I cannot in a limited letter give you
an idea of half I learned and saw. I
write'this note to call attention to the
place, and I am assuming nothing I
think, when in the name of the , people
there I invite the good citizens of our
county to visit the locality, and perhaps
learn something to benefit us. We have
upon our Mountain lands, thou ands of
acres apparently, as. poor as this was,
and it may be can be made as valuable
and productive, who knows? The ex-
periment is worth trying, and perhaps,
we may secure another luxury to add to
our lager and saucr-kraut. As I have'
j
assumed to invite our citizens to visit 1
these localities, I can assure them, it'
experience be a criterion, that they will
be cordially received. They have an
nually an exhibition of grapes, peaches,'
apples, and other choice fruit, and it
was upon one of these occasions that I
visited them. The weather was un
propitious, but bad as it was, there was
a fine assembly of prominent men from
every part of the State, and there was
but one expression, and that was "sat
isfaction at the exhibition and courte
ous 'reception ' and gentlemanly atten
tion of.tho officers of these companies
and the citizens generally." Each
seemed to"vie with the others in mak
ing every one pleased and at home, and
in giving them all the information t hey
possessed. It would be a pleasant place
to steal away for a quiet week, and
walk over their hills, and ride up and

A CHILD'S DREAM OP A STAR
BY CHARLES DICKENS.
' There was once a child, and hestrolled
about a good deal and thought of a num
ber of things. He had a sister, who was
acidic); too, and his constant compan
ion. These two used to wonder all day
long. They wondered at the beauty of
,the flowers; they wondered at the
height and blueness of the sky ; they
wondered at, the depth of the bright
water; they wondered at the goodness
and power of God' who made the lovely
world.
They used to satto one another, some
times," supposing all the children upon
earth were to diej, would the flowers,
and the water, and the .sky be sorry?
They believed they would be sorry.
For, said they, the buds are the chit
then of the flowers, and the little play
ful streams that gambol down the hill
sides, are the children of the water ;
and the smallest lirightspeeks playing
at hide and seek in'the sky all night,
,must be the children of the stars; and
they would all be grieved to see their
playmates, the children of men, no
more.
There, was one clear, shining star,
that used to come out in the sky, before
the rest, near the church spire, a.bo‘c
the graves. It was larger and more
beautiful, they thought, than all the
others, and every night they watched
for it, stynding hand in hand at the
window Whoever saw it first, cried
of t, "I see the star!" And often, they
cried out, both together, knowing so
well , when -it would rise and where.
So they grew to be such friends with it,
that, before lying down in their beds
they always looked out once again, to
bid it good night ; and when they were
turning round to sleep they Used to say,
"'God bless the star!"
But while she was still very young,
oh, very, very young, the sister drooped,
and came to be so weak that she could
lip longer stand in the window at night;
and then the ehildren-looked sadly out
by,hiniself, and when he saw the star,
turned around and said to the patient
pale face on the bed, "I see the star!" .
anti then a-smile Would come upon the
face, and a little weak voiceuF:ed to say.
"(Jot' bless my brother and the. star !"-
And so the time came—all to,* soon !,
when tile child looked 'out eine, and
when there was no pale face on - the
bed'; and when there was a little grave
among . the - graves, not there before;
and when the star madelong raysi down
towards him, as be saw it through his
silent tears.
Now, these rays:wore' so ' bright, and
they scorned to wake such a shining
way .front earth to Heaven, that when
the chilc,l'en went to his solitary Led,
he dreamed that, where he Was,
he saw al Uniir Of people take up that
sparkling road •1* angels. And the
star, opening, sliuwbd him a great world
°flight, where many more such aiw.els
waited to receive them.
All these angels, who waiting, turned
their beaming eyes upon the people who
were carried np into the star; and some
Caine out from the- long rows _in which
they stood, and fell upon the peonle_'s
necks, an d
downayenues of
joy.
•
But there \V LIS many angels who did
not go with them, and among on he
knew. The patient face that once I. t
laid upon the bed was glorified
radiant, buthishear,t found out his siSter
among all the host. 7
His sister's angel lingered near the
entrance of the star, and said to the
leader among those who had brought
the people hither.
"Is my brother conic ?"
And he said "no."
She was turning hopefully away,
when the child stretched out his units,
and cried "(); my sister, I inn here
Take me!" and
. then she aimed' hr
e
beaming eyes upon him, and it, was
night; and the star was shining into
the room, making long rays down to
waids him as he saw it throuoh his
tears.
from thii hour forth, the children
looked out upon the star as on the home
he was to go to, when his time should
copse ; and he thought that he' did not
belong to the earth alone; but to the
star too, because of his sister's angel
gone before.
There was a baby born to be a braille - ,
to the child; and while he was so haw
that he never yet had spoken a word,
he stretched his tiny fort» out upon his
bed_ and died.
Again the child dreamed of the open
star, and of the company of angels, and
the train of people, and the row of an
gels with their beaming eyes all turned
upon those people's faces.
Sold his sister's angel to the leader—
"lshiy brother come ?"
And he 'Not that one, but an
other."
As the child beliehMl;s7 - brother's
angel in her arms, heeried : S'o, sister,
I am here!—take ale !" And dfie tumid
and sniiied upon him, and thelstar was
shining. ""' ,
He grew to be a young inan'; and was
busy at his books when an old servant
came to 111 tii and said—
" Thy mother is no more. I bring
her blessing on her darling son."
Again at night he saw the star, and
all the former company. •
Said his sister's angel•to the leader—
"ls my brother Collitl: . "
And he said, "Thy mother!"
And a mighty cry of joy went forth
through all the star, because the mother
was re-united to her two children. And
he stretched out his arms and cried,
"0, mother, sister and brother. I am
here! Take me!" And they answere&
him:. "Net yet." And the star was
shining.
he grew to be a man, whose hair was.
turning gray, and he \Nils sitting in his
chair by the tire-side heavy with grief,
and with his face bedewed with tears,
wi l e the star opened once again.
Said his sister's angel, to the leader—
"lsany brother come?''
And he said, "Nay, but his maiden
daughter."
A nd the star was shining.
Thus the child came to bean old man,
and his face once smooth was wrinkled,
end his•steps were slow and feebh. , . nad
Ills back was befit. And one nigia ,
lie lay upon his bed Ilk children s:and
nig round, he cried, as long'ago—
" 1 see the star !''
'l'hcy whispered one another—
is dyhig." '
Awl he said, "I am. My age is falling
from inc like a garment, and I move
towartis the star its a child. And, 0,
my Father! Now l thank thee that it
has so often opened to receive those
dear ones who nwait_me!"
Anil the star was shining—and it
shines upon his grave

LETTER FROM KANSAS.
Return of the Grasshoppers.—The crop, prices,
. '[c.—Politicatexcitemelu.—Butinest, d:c., tie: -
.A.TCHISON, KAN., Sept. 6, 1868.
DEAR AGITATOR :—Lgce portions of
Idaho, Montana, Utah, Colorado, Ne
braska and lowa, Northern Kansas is .
again visited by the grasshoppers, but
their advent this year is about a month
earlier than last, and their destruction
this season is far more extensive than
Last. Most of the corn fodder, abtiage,
and garden truck generally has ibeen -:
laid waste by, these red-legged pests,
and they are notv depositing their' eggs -!
in the ground by the millions. Corn= -t
-ing so early this year their eggs may
perhaps hatch out this fall and cold
weather will put an end to their miser
able existence. But this depends on •
the weather we are to have this fall,
Should it remain cool as it just now is,
they will not , hatch this year and we
shall be cursed with young grasshop
pers next Spring, and perhaps have ouo ,
crop destroyed.
Tile wheat crop was never better than ,
in Kansas this year. It is a pity that
more was not put in by the farmers
since we have been visited with ayoung
drouth and an army of grasshoppers,
and have raised but little of anything
else. Kansas this year has proved to
be one of the best wheat producing
States in the Union, and while the corn
crop has been very sMall, still there is '
a fair crop, and our hardy farmers are '
not so despondent as they were a couple
of months ago. 1 1
Corn has raised in price about one
hundred per cent, in the past two
months, and is now worth about seven
ty-five cents per bushel, with a fair .
prospect of reaching $1,25 in the win
ter. The wheat crop has been solabun
dant that the price of flour has (fallen
$2 per hundred in the past two menthe;
the best selling now at $3,75. .'t was -
feared that the potato crop this - year
-would be a total failure, but th late,
rains have put the ground in sucha con
dition that we shall have a prett fair
crop. We ate having an abundance of
sweet potatoes and they are selling
cheap.
The peach crop this year is onelo . f the
largest ever known in this Beaton.—
Our market is blessed daily with seine ;--
ten or fifteen wagon loads of them-and:';
they usually command from fiftycenti
to one dollar per bushel. In a week
more they will be a drug in our -mar-
ket at fifty cents. Apples are lenty :,
and sell for fifty cents and one dollar
Per bushel.
The country is now wild with politi
cal excitement. Grant and Colfsix and
Seymour and Blair are all that we! bear, -
and but very little-of the two last can
didates. Dcruocrady can't win ii: San

How TO 33ECOME A AILITONAIRE.—
The writer of an article in the Qaxaxy
on the New York Millionaires thussuma
:up what is to be done by the man who
would join the order:
You mist be a very able man, *313
nearly all millionaires are.
I ou must devote your time to getting
and keeping other men's earnings. -
You ni list ent the bread of carefulness,
awl you must rise, early anci,elle down
latc.
:You must, care little or nothing about -
other men's wants, or sufferings, or dia.,
appointnients.
You must not wind it that your great
wealth involves many others in poyerty.'
You must not give away aidney ex
cept f ,, rn material equivalent • '
You must-not go, meandering. about -
nature, not spend your tithe enjoying
air, earth, sky, or water, for there is no
money in it..l
•
YOu must not distract your t ought s
from the great purpose of your iife with
the charms of art and literature.
You must not let philosrpliy or re-
ligion engross you during WIC secular
time. , 1
You must 'lt allow your wife or obil-•
dren to occup - much of your valuable
timo or thoug - its.
You must i ever permit the fascina
tionauf Trion lship • to inveigle you into
making loans, however staall.
- You must abandon all other ambitions
or purposes; A.nd finally—
You
must be prepared to sacrifice ease
mid ail fanOiful notions you may have
-about, tastes, and luxuries and enjoy
ments!, during inost, if not all your
natural life.
