T*'he Grape.
There is no fruit more easily cul
pntod than the grape. Of this,
there are a great number of varie
tio'both foreign and native. From
the-ill succeas which has attended
the. cultiyation of the former, their
S Out door'cultivatiot cannot he recoi

periment Several of the native va
rieties deserve especial attention. The
I.n6ir, the 'Isabella, the Catawba,
nd Blands'Maderia, all succeed with
slittle care. The Diana, a seedling
f the Catawba, promises to be an
equisition. The Lincoln Grape, re:
ently brought to notice by Dr.
' Itt,'of.Lincolaton, N. Carolina, is
-aid t6 be a most excellent wine and

may be increased to any extent from

of propagating the different varieties.

This should be filled up ro within the
proper distance of the surface to
set the vines, with chips from the
shoe-maker's shop, old shoes; leather
and scraps from the tan yard in
corporated with the soil which has
been taken out. The vines then
should be planted by spreading the
roots carefully and filling up with a
mixture of top soil, leached ash
es, broken or ground bones, and a
a portion of well rotted leaves or
twelve feet apart in the trenches, and
if trained upright, the trenches may
be made eight to ten feet apart.
The most expeditious way to ob.
tain a supply of 'good fruit, is to
graft these varieties which are
found to succeed best, upon the
old varieties, which are subject to
rot, and which should be extirpated
as rapidly as possible. The scions
should be cut in January, before the
sap begins to flow and buried in
some cold exposure until wanted for
use. They should be cut from two
to three buds in leaving one inch or
more below the eve to form the ton.
gle. The best time to insert them
is the liat March or tho first of
April. The proper season for the
operationu is when the buds begin
to swell and expand, and we have
generally foutind it arivartageous to
defer it as late as posible, as it does
not matter if the stock is putting
forth leaves, so the acions are
not pushing.
Common cleft grafting is general.
ly adopted. Take away the ear-th from
around the vine intended to be graf
ted; saw it off three or four inches be
low the surface, and with a strong
knife or chisel and mallet, split the
stock, insert a small iron wedge in
to the cleft to keep it open until the
scion is inserted; then shape the
scion wedge fashion and insert into
the cleft so that the inner portion of
the bark of the~scion and stock come'
together; a bit of cloth is all that
is necessary to keep the earth from
failing into the cleft. If the vines are
small, it is necessary to tie them with
cotton thread to cause the stock to
clamp until a union can take place;
then fill up with earth until the last
bad is left. When the stocks are
too large to split, they can still be
graftel by boring holes with a cen
tre-bit into the face of the stock; the
scions are prepared by cutting round
the bark. just below an eye, and ta
king of the bark, insert them into
the holes until the bark comes down
to wood. When the face of the
stock is largi several grafts can he
inserted in th. .anc stock. As this
maniter of grafting generally sue
eeds very well, it shows that there
is not the same necessity for making
the bark of the stock and scion meet,
as is the case in grafting fruit
trees. The grafts should be pro
tected from injury by stakes, and
the stocks should be kept fromh
all shoots that spring up.
All experiments made in attempt
ing to naturalize the foreign graie,
appear to have proved unsuccessful
-little or no effect seems to have
been produced by engr afting them en
the hardy nativ'e varieties. Th'le vines
flourished for a few years, then die
down to the point of union, in most
cases. The only prospiect seems to
be in producing new varieties by
hybridizing with the native kinds.
These, in most instances, prove ha
dv, and in time we may succeed in
obtaining Bomne choice varieties.
From crossing in this way, it is pro
bable that the flavor of the native va
rieties would be greatly impr~oved,
and at the same time, they being na
tuna to tho climate, will retain all the
hardy qualities reqluisite. Encour
agement shoul be given throngh the
fostering care of our Societies, for
choico varieties thus produced. It
wouhd~be the means of bringing thema
into notice and .general cultivation.
Tho fir-st year after plhantingn uoth
ing is necessary to supiport the vine,
as they are to be cut oIff the seconmd
year- within a few inches of . the
ground.- They should be trellished,
and a fine healthy shoot trained up
to form the vine. The best mode of
training in our climate, is the up
right one. The posts should be
twelve or fifteen feet high and good
laths nailed ragainst them alotng the
rows, and the tops of the post cover
ed with boards, as suggested in Mr.
Van Buren's excellent article "on
the prevention of rot." Thme vines
should be trained against these in
such a mn'anner as to spread over the
whole. To ensure productiveness
and good fruit, they should be pruned
annually before the sap begins to as
cend. This is effected by cutting
out all the useless wood which has
been produced, and arranging the
number and length of the branches
that are to remain, to the capacity of
the vine for maturing the next crop.
The necessity of the operation will
appear evident when it is considered
that the shoots which bear this year
will never bear afterwards, and that
a vine in a vigorous growth, and un
der good management, will annually
produce a much greater number of
buds and shoots than would bear
fruit, and could possibly perfect
should they be retained. From these
considerations, it follows that a judi
cious pruning is one of the most im
portant points of culture throughout
the whole routine of management.
Having formed the vine, the shoots
should be cut back, to within three
or four buds of the preceding year's
growth and the old or leading shoots
occasionally cut out and their place
supplied by training young shoots in
the;r stead. They should be secure
ly fastened to the trellis by means of
oziers or suitable wire. Summer
prunings is at times requisite. This
is simply to regulate the young
wood in such a manner as to givre the
sun and air free access to every part
of the vine. This will be mostly
effected by removing such shoots as
have no fruit.
The white Scuppernong eucceeds
easily and bears large crops of fruit;
it requires no pruning after the vines
have beer. properly trained up. It
is b y difficut to grow from cuttings,
blit s'uceedis by grafting, and is
readily propagated to almost any ex
tent )v lavers.
Thli ollowing list will embrace
nearly all the varieties which are
worthy of open cultdre:
1. Lsoa -A "'black ;rape,
hunches large and compact, some,
times shouldered; without pulp, ber
ries small, black, sweet and palata

of the best grapes for wine and the

2. rLANDS MADEIRA-A. deli

but the best of these is the piana.

berries of medium size, black, and
extremely juicy-free from pulp.
6. Oiro, OI t CmA Box-Is a

shouldered, berries s-all, black,
sweets arid without pulp.
To these we would add the iharly
Chasselas, which was introducedl by
our Ger-man ancestors in the eatly
settlemniit of the country. It does
niot appear to succeed as well as it
did some twenty years since. This
is perhaps owing to the want of care
ful garden culture. These, with
such other choice native varieties
as may be obtained, will furnish a
good supply of this wholesome and
delicious frunit, and we hope that cv
ery person who has a piece of ground,
w~ill take measures to sit under and
enjoy the fruit of his own vine.

MIS CELL-ANEOUS.
From Arth'ur's Hoe Gazette.
The Thre'e,. Wives.
BY F. U. COOKE.
Mir. Jeduthan Spike was an ec
centric bachelor of fifty. His mo
ther died ip giving him birth, and it
would seem 'thAt...the mother-heart
died with her, for from thatliour the
hapless Jeduthun seemed to have no
perception of feminine excellence, and
diverted himself with ridiculing the.
foibles of the sex, whose true char
acter was to him a despised enigma.
As a babe, he w'as fed and tended by
an invalid brother many years his
senior; and he afterwards grew in
stature, and a hard, ungenial kind
of wisdom, without?.nuch matronizing
from anybody. As years and posses
sions increased, le boarded at a fash
ionable hotel, where the cook and at
tendants were of his own sex, and
ignored the address of his laundress.
His predispositions against matrimo
ny were confirmed and strengthened
by the fate of the brother alhided to,
who married somewhat late in
life, and, after an unhappy connexion
of seven years' duration, left his wid
ow, a permanent inmate 'of an in
sane asylum, and his three boys to
the guardianship of their uncle.-The
recipient of this unexpected legacy,
who had till then'loved fi-othing in
the whole of his-miserable lire, felt a
strange pleasure in the duties of
this new and unsolicited relation.
The docility with which the little fel
lows accommodated tchemselves to
the oddities of the ecceritrie humor
ist, their unquestioning faith-in his
most startlinrg do mas, and their
artless exhibition. of - personal at
tachment, woi upon his isoited-na
turo to a degree L surprised him
philirefiAT' ddiis" e'ico ciosly
to fulfil to th6 lonelyvold man that
feminine mission without which human
life is a failure,. and happiness a
moth. With a devotion and pa
tience hardly to be expected of him,
he reared the fragile boys to mani
hood, gave them all needful advan
tages of books, and schools and
pocket-money. and at last saw them
all established in business, and in
a way to do credit to themselves and
their connexions. Jidge then of his
painful astonishmenit when "all three
waited upon him in 6 body, to an
nounce that they had joiiitly and sev
erally formed the audacious resolu
tion of commiting matrimony. Neith
er would have dared approach
the subject alone, and though count
enanced by each other, they felt so
tmuch gratitude, reverence and com
passion for the prejiMiced old man,
that they fairly trembled for the re
suilt.
When the confession was made to
Mr. Jeduthun Spikt, he turned his
back on the agitated young men,
and walked quickly to the window.
After stand'ling silently for some
minutes, lie turined and said very
cahly l:
"Well, hays, I have nursed you
through the measles, and the scarlet
fever, and the whioopig cough, and
I did my best to alleviate what I
could not pr1event. You arc no0w
the victimo of a disease quite as gen
er-al as the other-; and for which there
is no remedy but experience. Neith
er precept nior .examle~"-hiere his
lips qjuivet-ed slightly-"! have been
of any avail in your. case. Go then,;
and marry, if you will.-. I give
nmy full consent, on one condition on
ly-It is that you all present your
selves ini thriee years from this
day and hour, and declare solemnly,
upon the worth of your- remaining
manhood, whether you areo unhappy,
andl why. The causes of misery in
wedlock are very yarious, but the re
sult is uniformn. I will excuse you
now, boys, as I have an appoint
mnent with my tailor."
It is needless to say that the
three nephews availed themselves of
thme permission thus unwillingly giv
en, and that any self-roproaches they
might feel at defeating the cherish
ed wishes of their kindest benefactor
did not seriously embitter- the honey
moon. T1hme three years that follow
ed stole a handful of grey hairsTr-om
the bald forehead of Jeduthun
Spike, and, as if ashamed of the
theft, secretly restored them hidden
among the chestnut locks of his
young relations. And, as a farther
restitution, the same silent agents
transferred unnoticed a portion of
the hopeful tenderness of, the youth.
ful Benediets to refresh the withered
heart of the disappointed -bachelor.
The time for the interview so long an
ticipated, arrived at last. . Id thsi
luxurious roc'ns of the lonely uncle,
Henry and Charles, the two.-elder
nephews, waited impatiently the ar
rival of the younger.
"It is useless looking for Ed ward,'
said Charles, at last. "We shan't
see him before evening. His wife is
now looking for a needle to darn
hisstocl-ings, and replace the mis.
sing buttons upon his coat."
Yet, as he spoke, 'a cheerful
step was heard without, and the
tardy brother entered the room,
breathing quickly, and with a smil
ing apology for his. delay. The
two first arrived exchanged mean
ing glances; but the merciless uncle
cut shot t their merriment, by say
ing gravely,
"Henry, my boy, you are the
oldest. It is just that you should
lead upon this occasion. Tell us
frankly, how do you enjoy mar
ried life?"
The young man paused for a
moment, then, with a comical grim
ace that but ill-concealed his reluct
ance, he replied:
"It is a bitter dose to swal.
low, I confess. Uncle, you are re
venged."
There was a slight movement of
surprise, for Mrs. Henry Spike was
recognized as decidedly potable.
"I thought," said the uncle,
drily, "that yours was a pattern wife.'
"Only too much so," returned the
nephew. "It is my belief that she
was-- modelled upon the most ap
proved patterns and made up to
order.- If ever there was a ma
ohine for performing mechanical.
ly every outward virtue, it is. Mrs.
pir; indeed, I d6ibt if shehis any
to lose. '*'he never' betrays any
flutter of vanity or wounded feel.
ing. To- the calmness of a stat
ue, she adds an ins.tinctive ' percep
tion of decorum, a rigvid adherence to
rectitude, which leaves nothing to
hope or fear, and very little to
enjoy. Nothing can disturb her.
When our infant was dangerous
ly ill, she moved about his cradle with
the same unperturbed composure, and
dropped his last cordial, as we
thought, into the cup with an un
trembling hand."
"I hardly see how you came to
marry her," replied Edward, par
parenthese.
"She was pretty, and t riistook
her natural roses for blushes, and
her silence for delicate reserve. I
was much moved when she once left
me in tears; I have since learned she
lid the toothache. I can never
find in her deportment anything to
forgive, atid I am tired of poraising
wherd correctness seems inevitable.
Besides, she dori't care for praise.
She was wound up at birth, and her
heart pulsates #h the regularity of
a pendulum. If I should hang my
sellf some morning of pure ennuf,
I know site Would arrange every.
thing for a respectable burial. My
condition is desperate. In passing
through Now York last winter. I re
ligiously avoided seeing Lola Mon
tez, for I knew I should be smitten at
a glance. The slightett touch of
human frailty seems absolutely ne
eessary. Speak, bi-other," he ad
ded; after a brief pause, "and in
mercy poinit out some def'ect in Mrs.
Charley Spike."
'Mrs. Charley Spike,' responded
the person addressed, 'is not abso
lutely stupid, iior entirely itndifferent
in matters of mecetinig. Site gives
some variety to life in point of temn
per., and permits me to hope to please,
as wvell as fear to offend. But like
your Rtectina, she has, alas ! one par
amount idea. Order is Heaven's first
law, and it is not the less that of my
immaculate Vesta. Especially does
she insist upon the most spotless neat
ness, at thme expenise of all other con
siderations. I discovered soon after
my marriage that the world was a
little too good to live in. The parlors
wecre shut up to exclude the flies; the
chambers, to avoid the dust. The
dining room furniture was robed in
Iholland covers, and ugly mats de
formed every square yard of carpet.

If I sit, it is, Mr: Sike, ydur chair
marks the wall,' or 'Charleg, yoi are
rocking upo the.. rug. If I walk,
it is, 'Pray eave your boots ath'e
door, Mr. Spike, and let me bring
your slippers.' I dombtirties think I
will remove to an hotel, and. send
home my compliments daily in a per.
fumed note., I shall expect soon af.
ter to see the whole establishment
modelled in wax, and reposing un
der glass, like a collection of fancifdl
wonders. Come, Edwarid, your wife
is no paragon, luckily. Confess
your misery, and don't detain
us long."
"Mine is not a pattern wife, der
tainly," was -the response of the
younger brother. "She is not dis
tinguished for order, nor faultness in
neatness, nor unerring in discretion.
She is very far from being a piece
of clock-work, and there is a great un
certainty, sometimes delightful, some
times painful, as to what she will at
tempt, and , whether the result will
be success or failure. There is
room for - doubt as to particulars;
none at all as to the general tenden
cy of her conduct. She is as true
hearted a wonuan as lives, -and that
which she delights in must be hap
py.' You may smile if you choose,
but I do most frankly assut-e you
that I am happy. I know not what
Beatrice is doing at this rhoifnnt, but
I feel sure that, in aims and efforts,
she is true Jo herself, to me, and to
her Maker. I am sure that she
loves me more than all the world.be

loves truth and duty and self respect.

agine, but upon a pair of slippers she

Lot me see them tried, my dear air.
I have an idea they will fit yo."
"Why, yes, tolerably,' said the
good r)an, who seemed more grat
ified thdi he cared to atknowledge.
"Th tiruth is," he added; speaking
with hesitatiori, as if he felt need of
an apology. "The truth is, I am
going to live with Edward, and give
