The facts are too meagre to allow of judgmei how far this decision may affect Stnto rights?< reserved rights.

But how far the Federal Cou can modify or ooutrul State taxation by direct intei position docs not appear in the ease, and, indcei was not apparently involved. The simple questio was jurisdiction, and on that the decision was i uooordnncc with the Constitution. Ma. Bkovle* Returned.?On the 18th instui (says the Anderson, S.

' CRAPES m WINES. J The subject of era|ws nnd wine* is one to which t< so little Inneond attention have been devoted, and tu I' little intereet manifeated in thia section, that your 1 committee fenr they will not be able to make n report that will compensate you (or listening to it. If* c however, wc can any anything which will urrcst '< the attention of our citizens, and induce even u few ' " a of them to take nil interest in this most pleasant ^ and profitable culture, we shall be amply repaid lor n the '.rouble wo have been at in preparing thia re- v port. - , Without entering Into a elaborate argument to show that the culture of the grape and msnufoc- s turc of wine are not only conducive to temperance j' instead of opposed to it, but to honlth aim, your ( committee deem it only neceesnry to say, experience u has proven that in those countries where wine is s made there is less iutenricrance, crime and disease ' * c than in those whero apples, peaches, corn and rye, ^ are manufactured iuto ardent spirits, and that ercn ? temperance men regard it no sin to raise the grape t and make wine. Some of thn most reliable tern- ? peranee men, both North and South,arc the lar- j gest grape growers. Mr. Sidney Wcllrr, of North j Carolina, an ardent temperance in*n, is said to be i the most extensive manufacturer of wine in the ' South, and sells annually about 2,000 gallons of ( wine at prices ranging, according to quality, from 1 t to 6 dollars per gallon, which he pioduc-cs from 12 or 14 njres, realising from 3 to 4 thousand dollar*. j while Mr. I>mgworth, of Ohio, cultivates some 80 ( or 100 norve in grafies, from which lie receives an j annual profit of 40 or 50 thousand do'lars. Your t committee arc not prepared lo say that such re- 11 suits could be obtained in this latitude with sulficient ( certainty every year to risk the necessary outlay, i in consequence of a want of that uniformity in ,-ur ' reasons needed to tteeuro full and regular crops; j nor can we say that similar results might not be sc- . cured, if proper pains were taken to grow grapes, f native or adapted to our soil, and therefore only 1 mention these instances to show what has been done ' in other sections. I All your committee can hopo to do at present is to encourage those among us who hare time and 1 means, without interfering materially with their ' regular business, to make experimental trials for j the benefit of posterity. If it can be proren by ae- | tual experiment in ibis latitude tbat any given g' .ipo cau be raised in audi quantities every and my season as to yield even 20 gallons of wine to the 120th ol an acre, it is proven that 400 gallons rnny be made from an acre, which at the lowest estimate would he worth f?O0 dollars; and to the encouragement of grape growing in n small way your committee have devoted their entire labors. The modus operandi of starting and cultivating the vine is the first thing to Is; considered. All the varieties of grapes proper, as distinguished from the j bollucc or muscadine, (which latter includes the i celebrated Seuppernong, of Nortli Carolina,) may I be grown from culling*; but the muscadine and ' Seuppernong, which is nothing but a white muscadine, can only bo propagate! successfully by graft| ing or from layers, which last are procured by turn'ng the young shoots or runners near tlio ground down, nnd covering thein with dirt about the List of June, leaving the ends out, when they will take | root from every joint during that summer and fall. and be ready to transplant the ensuing spring. | Grafting the grajte may he done in the same way | thai apples, pears, peaches, &o., arc; but more eare | is required in making them fit smooth and cl<?e, and it should ho dotic early in February, before the j sap begins to run, and to a growing state, not to be j I removed ?r transplanted until the graft has taken | root. The mode of producing vines from cuttings : is more simple nn<l certain, hut rojuit s care and at- j lent ion at first. J The- culling** honld l?c from 12 to 18 inches king, ' according to the length of the joints. Iiav ng at least three joints timh-r the ground. They should be , cut at the winter ir'.mniii g of the vinos from the growth of the previous siiiniiK-r. 'flic lower end should he cut oir square, about an iueli from the jointur hud, nn<l sealed over w illi scaling wax; xvhile the upper end may he out sloping an inch I turn the ; upper joint nnd scaled in the same w ay, and buried : in the ground until you wish to set them out to i grow, which should be attout the hrst of March. S - [ lect p. low tlat place in the garden, nnd spade it up to the depth of 1 fi or 18 inches, making it very rich with go-*l compost or well rotted stable manure, then ; open a ttetieh the width and depth of a spado, plnce . your cuttiugs two in n place at an angle of ia do- ' greos, leaving one joint or bud some 2 or 3 inches ' above the surface, press the dirt well .round them, 1 tilling tip the trench nbout fi inches from the outtings, leaving the same angle; against which lay down two more cuttings in the same way, and soon until you set in as many as you want; tin n spread leaves ulong on each side o| the cuttings, covering the ground two or three inches deep und some 12 or 18 wide, aud throw n little dirt on them to keep the wind from blowing tliem away, takiugcare not to cover up the top bud of the* cuttings. Should the spring be dry, after tho bud commences to swell, these leaves should be kept mo st by sprinkling water on them every day or two until they begin to take root, which may ho known by the prolongation ot the hud. If it is dry, and in May and June, they should be covered with pine bushes to protect tliciii from the sun. If the season is not too dry, < the cuttings will grow from 1 to f> or G feet long the firs*, summer. Sometimes during the winter your vineyard xvln-rc you intend jdnnting your vines permanently should ? he prepared, and the best plan, 110 doubt, is to trench the entire ground, loosening and manuring the soil to the depth of two feet; liut this is too expensive unless you intend to make a business of grape growing nuil making wine. You should, however, dig ; holes 2 feet square ami 18 or 20 inches deep, looscuing the bottom and filling up with compost or earth and stable manure, mixing them well together, hliirly in February, before the sap begins to rise, take up your cuttings, being careful to get as much root ns possible uninjured, cut off all the last summer's growth except about (wo joints, and plant m the middle of the hole or bed prepared for them, burying the root and old vine entirely, and the fiist joint <>l tho new growth up to within two or throe inehcs of the second or I ist bud, tin it' nulch with leaves ns before directed, ami water occasionally if it should be dry, nnd if these otico lake root they are not apt to die. There arc three modes of training vines, vi 1 , the arbor, trellis and stake. If your object is to have an ornamental, as w ell as a profitable, small vine yard, tho arbor is the last, which yon may construct in any shape or size your fancy may suggest: so you oliserve one invariable rule, ami that is never to sufTcr grapes to grow on mi upright vine if I V/lll U"int l-ltor-il AC Ik. .V 1 H SSI t lo-n *1.1 I . of t I. A . ? vino to War well; and the reason i<, that the grn|x? ' ({row more vigorously on upright branches and j noun exhaust the strength of the vine, so that the horizontal runners dwindle, the grapes rot and in a j few years the entire vine d < *. I'lie trell.s or horizontal training is the cheapest, and requires a less number of vines, as it consists simply of stakes \ along which the vine* arc trained horizontally, and ft allowed to run and War nil lihtlum, <1 The stake culture i? the mode adopted where the H greatest yield per acre is desired ? is that wlneh is d practiced hy the wine makers 111 tier many and it France, and I believe in this country also. The , h plan is, to plant the Vines in rows !t or 1 feet each e< way, and planting a stake some f> or C feet high by tl each vine, and training one or two upright stems us r< high as the stake only, and suffer them to bear from si the ground up, but never suffering the vines to grow ei nny higher. Hy the time the slakes rot the vines ll become large and strong enough to support them- ; j selves, and remain for years Waring grajss, and n look more like small trees than vines. h Grape vines will not Warns a general rule tint.I T the second year from transplanting, and third fr<'in h the cuttings; and hence nothing is to he done the si first and second year from the cuttings, but to pre- d pare and train your vines as you want them, tak ng r< care every winter to mulch tin in, eilhet with l. ilf tl rotten stable manure, or leaves and scrap "gs from tl the fence Corners or low places in the woods. d The pruning is the next thing to W considered; a . ?/i roper attention to which is indispensable to secure ? in the culture ol the vino, either native or t doptcd. There are two pruuinge, tho winter and j tie summer. The winter pruning should ho don* i January, or early in February, before the snpbeius to rise, and is duno in this way: Cut otl' from " our permanent vims or runners all the shoots of ' wo years' growth, close to ihe vine or parent stem, f saving the shoots of the last summer's growth at 1 qua) distances, say at every third joint, on hori- * ontnl runners, (but nt every joint on upright branch s, it you adopt the stake culture,) which should be t ut ofl'about un inch from the second bud or joint, saving there two buds to put out the hearing shoots lie ensuing spring. For it must be observed tliot tlie ( rapes only come on the shoots or oranchea of the , resent summer, and these shoots are most thrifty nd prolific when grown from tho woo l of tho pre- ' ious summer. At the winter pruning is tho time I n trnin and tie down tho vines where you want . hem to remain permanently and to aave cuttings. , Tho summer pruning should bo commenced as ' ooti as the vines put out in tho spring, by rubbing I 41'all the buds or shoots. except tlioso you want to l war grapes this year and next; observing, that you nust preserve two sets of shoots?one Irom the old r parent stein nt the joints you hnve trimmed I moolh at the winter pruning, and the other set i rom lite joints of the stems or growth of the pre- I oding summer?the latter to bear grapes this car, and the other next year?upon which you must ufTcr no grapes to grow if any should cottjc. Af or the grapes have dropped their bloom, cut ofTthe tearing branches or shoots two joints from the first | much of grapes, und during the summer keep lown all superabundant growth by pruning or (inching off water-sprouts, or succors >n the bonrng shoots, allowing the other set of shoots left for ho next year's crop to grow ad hlntum, unless their 'cry luxuriant growth is likely to shade the grapes i oo much, when they should be pruned ns needed, intil tlie* grapes begin to ripen. 1 The next subject which engaged the attention of < ;our committee wns the kind or variety of grapes or wine and table use. For wine, it is conceded hat the Scuppernong and Catawba are decidedly referable in this latitude, not only on nocount of heir superior flavor, but because they are natives ind full and constant hearers, and not so I able to ! ot as the foreign varieties usually cultivated in this oun'.ry. such a* the Maderia, (llcrboinont,) MusMt (or Taliaferro,) Rlnck Hamburg, &o. The lsa clla. we believe, is claimed to be a native of North J.irolina, hut is not as hardy as many of our exotics, t is known in this District as the "Knolisli Hrane" ?n large, oblong-shaped, black or dark jiur|>lo ;rape. Any of tbe above named varieties are fine able grapes, and well worth the trouble of cullivn- | ing for table use, if nothing more, and will "Ait" [, is often, if not oftener, than apples, peaches or ears. Your committee arc of the opinion that there are tativo varieties, both of the grape and boll nee in >ur forest, that would suit our climate better than j my of the above named exotics, and equally as good or wine or table use if properly cultivated and ini>rovcd. In reference to the manufacture of wine, your rommittcc, having devoted so much time to the culuro of the grape, will only say, that the process i quite simple?the principal difficulty being the want of the material, viz: the grape, which, when iupplicd in sufficient quantilus, can easily be made nto wine, and may more appropriately become the subject of a luture rc|>ort to yotir body. Your committee cannot close their report?nl cady perhaps protracted to a tedious length?without a hliug a word or two of exhoitation to the lovers of improvement in our Ihstrict. From the aclual experiment of one of your committee in an vljoining District,ware feci authorized to assure the antlers of Spartanburg, that a very little trouble md pains for three years, even in a small way, will imply reward tlieni iu the cultivation of the vine, :ven if their only object be to raise wine for ta- ] tic use ; and we doubt not, that among sonsc of ' ;ho.sc who may try the experiment of grape culture, ionic few w ill be induced to try their hand at mak- ( ng wine, and we will not hesitate to guarantee both uccess and profit if the above directions b? followed , 1 m the management of the vine; and we aro warranted iu making this declaration by the experience <f grape-growers in other S'-ctions of the United states. Ten years ago there were scarce as many as a thousand gallons of wine made for sale iu the Untied States; while now the quantity is estimated at iverfive hundred thousand gallons, with an annual net ease ol k'5 per cent. In IS3I, the cellar of ' I /oiigworth A /'(mm rman.nt < iiciuuali, contained sighty thouraiid gallons; and such is the demand md ready sales at remunerating prices, that dealers ire scarcely able to kct p n stock on hand. Among the; liucipal reasons why more attention is not paid to gri pe culture iu this section, is the want of information on the subject. Iu (ho first dace, the ground is not prepared with deep culture, 10 as to retain only a proper propirtion ol moisture md ti > more and in the next place, the vines are ioi propirly pruned and attended to in the summer. As soon as the grapes are formed and begin to grow, hey are supposed to be out of danger, when in fact hey need more attention tliau at any other lime; md the consequence is. the grapes soon bconio crowded with leaves and succors, n*i much shaded, md of course rot, to the disappointment mid distouragctiieul of the owner. With one hour's labor 1 wo or threo days in the week, during the months >f May, June and duly, one hand eati attend to ten >r a dozen vines, which will supply Ins owu and levcral other families with eating gra|?es. The Scuppernong, attei the second year, needs 10 pruning either winter or summer, except to thin . tit occasionally, when the vines cluster too close in I >ne direction. 'l'he only object in trimming them it all 1 si to give them a vigorous start in the proper j 1 reclion, ami to nave only the number of runners iccessary to cover the arbor you have made for hern. It must bo remembered that tho Scupper- j ! i?>ng always do better on arbors,and may beallow- I I 1 to run sis far and wide as they will, observing j he principle la.d down 111 other grapes, not to suffer [rapes to grow on tho upright branches. In addition to the individual pleasures and profits, I t is in sonic degree the duty ot every good eitixen o 1 ngago, more or I en.-, in the culture ot the grape. r<> do all we can to make our homes pleasant and , igreeable to our families and friends, is the beginiing of a wise patriotism. National pnsipcrity and ' treatness depend upon natural hnppness; and in- ' lividnl h.ipp.ncss and contentment are the parent of I ! hem all. Whatsoever, therefore, i? calculated to nake our eitixens contented and happy at home, ends greatly to national strength and prosperity, by liseournging einigra ion and promoting nttochinenl * o the place of our birth?thus fostering a genuine 1 tatriot sin. Amidst the many attractions by which 101m- may be surrounded, and winch it is the duty ?f every christian patriot to cherish and increase, j nor< especially at the South, in the present critical ' | otidition of our political rights, the vine may justly ! laim a high and important rank. The suspired 1 * rnguage of Holy \N"rit, ever rich in lofty pathos 1 itni graphic delineations, could find no more appro- . mate figure by which to syinbolijte the pleasures of ! he millennium, thun that "erery man shall sit undt r ! us \ .nc and his fig-tree, and nouc shall make them fraid!" Who that ha* ever left the home of his birth, nd after many years returned to the old hometend, does not seek with profouud reverence and I ven childish affection, the lovely shade of some fa- ; urite vine or fruit tr?-e, beneath which fond memo- ' y reveals amidst the gloom of the past bright and uppr visions of "joyous youth;" with brothersnud ] isters, now perhaps no more, he ganibolhd and ntlwreil the luxuriant and grateful past, forcing, it ! ( lay he, upon bis unwilling memory, the patriotic entimrnt of ^Uintgomcry, and like him, "Deems bis own land,of every land the pride, ' lb-loved by Heaven o'er all the world beside; v His homo the sjiot of earth supremely blest, ?
