The ncocssions of pupils to the Spurtanburg Female College, ami the generally flattering pro* poo I* of the institution, havo induced the Trustees to add ouotlier Professor to the Faculty, in the person of Rcr. W. M. Csknsiiaw, of Virginia, in tho departments of Mathematicssnd Natural Philosophy. The steadily increasing prosperity of this college must be very gratifying to tho South Carolina Conference, and reflects no small honor upon the persevering industry of its Trustees mid Faculty.

Unrortuiintely for propriety nn?l tho social ohjecls o( those engaged, the highways and hedges emptied themselves, without compulsion, upon the festivities, and by conduct both ru !e and violent, rendered a suspension of tlw purposes of the occasion a matter of necessity. On a former oocasion we rebuked improper behavior in public places, and regret that its rc|>ctilion is called for. THE LECISLAT11RB. The body convened in Annual Session, in (lie Capitol, at Columbia, on Monday. We have no tidings yet o( its doings. As both Houses were fully organized at tho Kxtra Session, we may rx|>cot a prompt despatch of business. The Governor's missage was probably not de-liven*! until Tuesday. COSMOPOLlTA^iRT^ASSOCIATIOT.

STATE MILITARY ACADEMY. The Commencement of the Citadel Academy, Charleston, took place on the 19th instant, when dames D. Tradcwell, Esq., of Columbia, delivered the address before the Literary Societies. His theme was the "Study of the Federal Constitution, as the only safeguard of our republican institutions." The address gave very general satisfaction. Orations were also delivered by the graduating cadets, after which Professor Capers conferred diplomas upon the following graduates: .1. F. Lanneau, W. R. Erwin, G. AV. Stecdman, E. M. Liw, K. Croft, II. S. Thompson, .1. D. Nance, G. A. Ross, J. A. Evans, L. F. Dustier, 11. M. Sinuns, R. Y. Dwight, A. McAllister, A. Y. Ix:e, and .J. A. Finch. After the presentation,Cadet J. F. lainneau delivered the valedictory address in a very feeling manner. The exercises of the day wore closed by | an address to the Society of Graduates by Prof P. F. Stevens. STATlHuGIITSr The New York Express alludes to a decision ol the Supreme Court of Ike United States, holding j that the United States Court, under the Constitu- I I lion, has a right to inquire into and interfere with the local tax legislation of a Slate. The ease is thus stated : "Parties out of Ohio sought in tko United States v,ni[k iu tujom me inrecinrs "I 1I?? t^omnicrchl Kranch Hank of Ohio from paying n State tax, (iwH iliranl. The n'ca was lio United S'.nltt. jurisdiction." Chief Justice Taney ami Associate Wayne, with the four Northern Judges, sustaining jurisdiction; contra, Catron, Campbell, and Daniel. The facta are too meagre to nllow of judgment | how far this decision may aflect State rights?or i reserved rights. Clearly the Supreme Court has jurisdiction in eases arising "between a State ami : citizens of another State," for thcao are the words of the Constitution. Hut how fnr the Federal Court can modify or control State taxation by direct inter- I position does not appear in the case, and, indeed, | was not apparently involved. The simple question ( was jurisdiction, and on that the decision was in accordance with the Constitution. Ma. Brovi.e* Hkturncd.?On the 18th instant (says the Anderson, S. C., True Carolinian) six hundred and twenty four votes were (tolled for a member to the Legislature, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the ruling of the legislature in the case of Mr. A. T. Rroyles. Of this number Mr. Hroylcs received five hundred and seventy-two, and was consequently declared to be duly elected. Wo notioed last week that Manager Brougham, of Now York, laid a wager that his theatrical company would play in thnt city and Philadelphia on the same night, lie won his bet, and had a mcr;y time of it besides.

Contrail**,* of opiu><>u nrev?i!? as r; to who *hnll be admitted into thi* second meeting. cr England line proposed conditions that France re- 8U gsrds injudicious. This litis led to incidental dis- " cuasioiis not purely ainicnble, and English journals charge upon Franc* a disposition to slough off the English alliance, but only to effect ono with Ilursiu. qt Additional syinptoms hud manifested themselves of o? n close union between Frnnec, Russia nud Prussia. It would appear that France supports the unoonditional admission of Russia nud Prussia to the so- in cond meeting ol the European Conference, while ?' England is said to oppose the admission of the former, and Austria of the latter. p, The latest steamer to this country brings news tc pregnant with estrangement. The event of the J'J week is n semi-official editorial in the Constitution- * CI nl on the questions at issue between the French and (j| Englibli Governments. This article spcuk* plainly, and saya: tll ''The piesunee of the nn.ai squadron of England tll in the Hluck Sen, and of the Austrian* in the Principalities, are henceforth only nu arbitrary and violent means of preventing n solution of the difference ki which It Jsna lut* been the first to propuso in offering rt to submit tho question to its nnturul judges. Is it desired rather to have recourse to arms? I* war again desired? Does the Knglish ministry itch to cntei again upon hiMtilities without France?not certainly to assure tho execution of the Treaty ol Paris, tint imprudently to rend it in pieces in the lace 111 of the world, with the object of satisfying an ambition ac that had been for the moment disguised. We repeat, vv it now depend* upon the cabinet* of London and Virnna to put an end to the pending disputes, and to terminate tho anxieties to which the present situation C gives rise. I?ct lite consent to the reassembling of the pleni|>otenlinric* be given, without making ar- j,, bitrary and inadmissible exclusiveness a condition? . exclusion* which would completely change the character and be an additional breach of the treatii # L't u* add, that if a peaceful solution is desired, jt this is the only proposal for that purpose that can t. bo decently made." It has boon rumored for some lime back in Pari* that the French fleet was about to proceed to the ^ Black Sea. This, however, is not certain. The ^ fleet may pcrha|>a leave Toulon, but it is not probable that it wdl go far. Should it go to the Black Sea, it is difficult to sup|M>sc that its object could be ,j co operation with the British squadron. letters say that tho relations between France j and Prussia are becoming closer, there being talk ^ of but two policies, that of France, Russia and Prussia against England and Aus'ria. Private statement* say that Prussia agrees with Fiance and j Russia in requiring that tho Austrian* shall cvacu ntc the Danubinn Principalities and the Knghsh ^ | fleet leave the Black Sea. ,, Great g'Htd sense must preside over the destinies I of Knrope, and more than usual moderation, il the evils ol war be avoided. The Kmpcror Alexander ! lias addressed a letter to General Luders, grant- ^ ing him leave of absence for a year. One exprettion in it has attracted attention. Tho Kmpcror say*: ? , () "Appreciating your eflicicnt services, I hope that it circumstances give me oocasion to recnll yon to ? employment before the expiration ?d tho |*<riod *' named, you will come to resume your duties with the J zeal and alacrity which have ever signalized your | military career."

The Spartanburg College w;w repre- j scntcd ns especially prosperous, and the large in- j tlux of scholars had required an addition to the fa- ! .

"* CRAPES AMI) WINKS. ,, flie subject of qrapes ntid wines is one to which so little toner, ml attention hive been deveted, and so I little interest manifested in this section, that your ,1 committee fear tliey will not be able to make a re|?ort that will compensate you for listening to it. If? in 1 however, wc can say anything which wilt arrest 1 the attention of our citizens, nnd induce even a few | of lliein to lake un interest in litis most pleasant ul ! and profitable culture, we shall be amply repaid for II ' the trouble wo hove been at in preparing this re*' port. Without entering into a elaborate argument to a- show that tho culture of the grape and inauufM>y turc of wine are not only conducive to tent|HTauce "|P ! instead of opjMised to it, but to lieoltli also, your U_ committee deem it only necessary to say, experience ' has proven that in those countries where wine is nt inado there is less iatemj?crance, crime and disease, c- than in those where apples, peaches, corn nnd rye, It- are manufactured iutn ardent spirits, and that even id temperance men regard it no silt to raise the grape ir- and make wine. Sunc of tho most reliable temperance men, both North and South, are the largest grape growers. Mr. tSalney Wcllcr, of North Carolina, an ardent temperance man, is said to be ' n the most extensive manufacturer of wine in the South, and sells annually about 2,000 gallons of 18 wine nt prices ranging, nccording to quality, from 1 "" to 6 dollars per gallon, which he ptoduccs from 12 or 14 acres, realizim? from 3 to 4 thousand dollar*. whilu Mr. Ijongwortli, of Ohio, cultivates some SO 1'" or 100 acre* in from which he receives an Ce annual profit of 40 or 50 thousand dollars. Your ^ committor arc not prepared to say that such re"J suits could be obtained in this latitude with sufficient 18 certainty every year to risk the necessary outlay, ?n in consequence of a want ol that uniformity in our seasons needed to secure full and regular crops; " nor can we say that similar results might not he secured, if projwr pains were taken to grow grapes, ' native or adapted to our sod, mid therefore only mention these instances to show what has bcetidonc ill other ructions. 12 All your ooinniitlcc can hope to do at present is to encourage those among us who have time and ^ means, without interfering materially with their i regular business, to m.ikc experimental trials for the benefit of posterity. If it can be proven l?y actual experiment in this latitude that any given grape 8 can be raised in such quantities every and any sca>n' son as to yield oven 20 gallons of wine to the 1 20lh ol an acre, it is proven that 400 gallons may be 18 made frotn an acre, which at the lowest estimate would he worth 500 dollars; and to the encouragement of grape growing in a small way your com10 mittec have devoted their entire labors. The tnodna operandi of starting and cultivating '' the vine is the first thing to let considered. All the varieties of gra|ws proper, as distinguished from the bolluce or muscadine, (which latter includes the ' colcbrntod Souppcrnong, of North Carolina,1 may ll* be grown from cuttings; but the musoadinc and " *' Souppcrnong, which is nothing but n white muscadine, can only bo propagated successfully by grafting or from layers, which last are procured by turn'l'' big the young shoots or runners near tl.e ground an down, and covering them with dirt about the last ^ c of dune, leaving tlie end* out, when they will take root from every joint during that summer and (nil, ' a and be ready to t: ansplant the eusu ng spring. t'r" <1 raiting the grape ninv lie done in the sane way that apples, |>ears, peaches, &e , are. but more care "l is required in making them lit smooth and cl-ise, I and it should he done early in l:\brii.iry, Is lore the ' sap begins to run, and to a growing state, not to he ITO ; removed or transplanted until tlm graft ha- taken ; root. The mode of producing vines Iruin cuttings ' 's i* more simple and certain, but requn s care and ati tention at first.

S tn I leot a low tlat place in the garden, and >pi le it up i to the depth of IC, or 18 inches, making it v? ry rich ; with g'ssl compost or well rotted stable manure, then ! open a trench the width and depth of a spade, place al- , your cuttings two in n place at an angle of 1.1 doi grecs, leaving one joint or bud some "2 or J inches ' j above the surface, j?r. -s the dirt will a <>und them, filling up the trench nbout f! inches from the cutits . tings, leaving the same angle; against which lay duw n ?y. ' two more cuttings in the same way, and soon untd i you set in as many as you want; tin n spread leaves ' along on each side of the cuttings, covering the ground two or three inches deep and some 12 ?.r ep J8 wide, uud throw a little dirt on lln-m to keep the r>y( i wind from blowing them away, tak ng e.irc not to lu | cover up the top bud of the cuttings. Should the ' spring be dry, alter tho bud comimncis to swell, ' " 1 these leaves should be kept mo st by sprinkling w ii ter on tlirm every day or two until they begin to uis i take root, which may ho known by the prolong.!,a tion ot the hud. If it is dry, and in .May .tie! June, . they should lie covered with p lie busies to protect : them from the sun. Iflhe season is not too dry, st- the cuttings will gro.v from 1 to .*> or ?> feet long j the first summer. ,( { Some: mea during the winter your vineyard win re ' you intend planting your vim s permanently should ,J' , be pr> pared, and the best plan, no doubt, is to trench I the entire ground, loosening and manuring the soil to t to the depth of two feel; but this is too expensive unless you intend to make a business of grape grow' i mg and making wine, imi should, however, dig le" holes '2 feet square and IS <>r "20 inches deep, I.> < he euing the bottom and filling up with compost or earth and stable inunure, mixing them well together. Karly in February, before the sap begins to r ?i , take up your eullings, being careful to g< t as inueli root as possible uninjured, rut oil' nil tin last rummer's growth except about two joints, and plant n u] the middle of the hole or lied prepared for them, I burying the root t al old vine entirely, and the tn-t | joint ol the new grow th up to within two or three ie inches of the second or I st bud, then" mulch with leaves ns before directed, and wan i occ imoiihIK if a it should bv dry, and if tin so once lake r.iot ila \ arc not apt to die. r,> 1 There arc three modes of training vines, vir , the | arbor, trellis and stake.

'J'lie next subject which engaged the atter | your committee was the kind or variety of i lor wine and table use. For wine, it is co I that the Scuppcrnong and Catawba are de< ; preferable in this latitude, not only on nee tlmir superior llavor, but because they are i and full ami constant bearers, and not so 1 i rot as the foreign varieties usually cultivated j country, such as the Maderia, (llerliemoiil,) I eat (or Taliaferro,) I'lack 1 Inmburg, &o.

Any of the above named varieties r | table grapes, and well worth the trouble of < I ting for table use, if tiotliini; more, and w ill as often, it not oflcncr, than apples, peat pears. Your committee arc of the opinion that th native varieties, both of the grape and boll I our forest, thut would suit our climate betti i any of the above named exotics, and equally i (or wine or 'able use if properly cultivated a proved. In reference to the manufacture of wine committee, having devoted so much time to t ture of the grape, will only say, that tin- | is quite simple?the principal difficulty bei want of lie material, viz: the grape, which, supplied in sufficient qu intilits, can easily hi into wine, and may more appropriately bccoi subject of a luturu rc|M>rt to your body. Your committee cannot close their rcpo | ready |>crh.i|is protracted to a tedious letigth| out adding a word or two of exhortation to t : ers of improvement in our District. From I tun! experiment of one of your committee ; adjoining District,?we feel authorized to ass i farim-nt of Spartanburg, that a very little i and pains for three years, even in a small w; amply reward them in the cultivation of th even if their only object he to raise wine ' hie use ; and we ilniibt not, that among h ! those w ho may try the cxp l imciit of grape c some few will be induced to try their hand a ing wine, and we w ill not hesitate to guarant success and profit if the above directions bo fu in the management of the vine; and we ar ranted in making this declaration by the cxp of grape-growers in other sections of the Slati s. Ten years ago there were scarce as mt thousan 1 gallons of wine made for sale in tli ted S ati?; while now the quantity is estinii overlive hundred thousand gallons, with an increase ol 23 per cent.
