Tho yield this year Is expected to bc only half as large OB that of last season, but the wine will be of a better quality. Tho Buena Vista estate, in Sonoma County, said to be the largest vineyard In the world, contains ll ve thousand acres, foin hun? dred and ?fty acres being covered with vines which grow so luxuriantly that they have to bc planted In ridges eight feet apart, while In Europe from three to four feet ls generally sufficient. Thc vineyard contains grapes of all varieties, but those chiefly grown uro tho Riesling, Muscatel aud Mission, the latter be? ing tlic native grape. Tho labor employed Is almost wholly Chinese, but a few Frenchmen and Germans from European wine districts at? tend to thc cellars and superintend tho wlnc making. Thc Buenn Vista champagne ls be? coming widely and favorably known. It IB made in thc same manner as the best French champagne, and some choleo vintages are scarcely to bc distinguished from tho European varieties. The Cuban Muddle. Whatever may have been the other pecu? liarities ol President Grunt's Cabinet, it cannot be said that there has been out? general disposition to adopt a bold or de? cided policy, whether In foreign afluir? or thc domestic concerns of tho nation. Ir? resoluteness ami timidity mark the whole course of Hie government, and no man feels sure that tho d?cision or to-day will not ho reversed ou Ute morrow. Tho game of see? saw, however. amusing in itself, is not one likely to inspire confidence wilton played persistently by tho. Executive of a mighty people; but nothing better can be expected" from the weak head ol a divided and dis? tracted council. ff . Thc letter of our Washington correspond? ent, published yesterday, supplies a forcible illustration of thc policy or no-policy of the Grant administration. In spito of the ex? hortations and expostulations of the North? ern press, the government refrained from recognizing Cuba, or giving or allowing to be given to thc?Cuban insurgents any sub? stantial aid. The United States could not, without gross logicttl inconsistency, meddle in the quarrel between Spain und the "Gem ol tlic Antilles." Exaggerated statements of thc strength and successes of t?? revolu? tionists were wholly disregarded, and steps wero taken to prevent expedltiont, Intended for their support, from lenving the Gulf and Atlantic coast. All this was well enough, when followed by the detention of tho Span? ish gunboats; but hero the chronic weak? ness of tho administration showed Itself, tho Cabinet allowing themselves to be per? suaded by thc Cuban Junta to make a pro? posal to Spain for the peaceable cession of Cuba. At this point carno in the note of Minister Sickles to the Spanish Government, than which no more, roystering and pot vulluiil/ document una umu uUUresaou uy u powerful to a weaker nation. Tho Spanish ministry promptly declined to hearken to threats or to bo swayed by intimidation. The martial spirit, dormant since the suc? cessful war with Morocco, was once more aroused, and Spain allowed it to be plainly seen that she bad rather tight at a disad? vantage than submit to insolent dictation. The note was in the worst possible' taste; but little courtesy or savoir faire waa ex? pected from the notorious Individual who represents the United States at the Court of Spain, and it was. boped that the refusal of tho Senate to confirm his appointment would relieve the government from embar? rassment, and wipe ont the remembrance of a serious diplomatic blunder. The whole business was bad enough while Sickles was believed to be the sole author of the note, hut our Washington correspondent, lifting the veil of secrecy,' declares authorita? tively that. Minister Sickles was only "fol? lowing the language of. a cable telegram' from the Secretary of State." All was fish that came .to the net of Sickles, and the tiero of Gettysburg was doubtless glad unough to have an opportunity of showing lila own bluntness and the hectoring spirit of his government. President Grant and lils Cabinet are, it seems, alono responsible Tor .what Minister Sickles has-done; but with charming vacillation may, before unoth - gr.?un goes down, disavow their own act, and make ready to cast their Jonah into the laws of political oblivion. . ' And what is the present attitude of the United States Government towards Spain and Cuba? The prospects of the insur? gents are gloomy In tho extreme.' Dissen? sion and jealousy rob them of their strength; their leading generals are accused of treach? ery; the American volunteers are eager to return to their homos. Tho career of the Cuban rebels promises to be ns brief as that of their first man-of-war, tho-termination of whose bloodless cruise was announced in the dispatches of yesterday. And nt the moment when th? clouds hang'like a nail over the insurgent cause, the United States rush headlong to the redeu?, and tell Spain that our dogs of war irinst soon bo u nie uah - ed if C.tuSh ls not 1t^y,[^^'p\i^1^'aome chivalry m talking In lilia wuy to a nation of equal power and equal strength, but it ts not tho habit pf this glorious country to hit one ?Va own Rizo, ' Nor will tho government, we lindert uko to say, follow up ils big words by brave dc?ds. - The United States will n%t go to war, even with Spain, however! tho' Cabinet and the press may bluster. Nay, we venture the assertion that, despite the Sickles' note, this government has no present intention of going so far' rt? a simjfo recog? nition of the belligerent'rights of the Cuban?.

An old und experienced Western iicwspu per mun,, iJoseph Mcdill, of Chicago, lately delivered a lecture before ii convention of Indiana edilors and publishers, on thu true road to success in journalism. Thc views advanced in the following extract arc so sound and practical, and have, withal, so wide an application, that wo copy anti com? mend them to the attention ol our friends of tho Fourth Estuto throughout the South: "One branch of tho publishing business re? mains to be mentioned before closing those rcmurks-advertising. I entirely disapprove of tho practice, altogether too common, of taking column or half column 'ads.' on con? tracts for n year at a Ihne, nt greatly reduced rates. These advertisements are mostly quack medicines, lottery swindles, or humbug pntont rlght8. Such advertisements are an abomina? tion In the sight of renders, particularly the delestabic cuts which accompany them. To thrust this lying, swindling trash by Hie col umnful, cuts and all, into thc face of decent and respectable people, for a year at a stretch, ls enough to causo them to discontinue their paper until tho nuisance ls abated. For all such advertisements you should charge single rates, without discount, and demand advance payment. In addition to publishing this trash at shamefully low prices, printers nrc gene? rally, or frequently, swindled out of the pay promised, and I confess to a certain degree of satisfaction that they arc cheated; for lt isa deserved punishment for inserting the st nil'ut such prices, on generous confidence, Instead of cash down. The true way ls to make no contracts nt loss than monthly rates, and if any one Insists on keeping an 'nd.' standing for six or twelve months, chargo him monthly rates, and collect every month. Open ti 'wants' department lu your imper; put the price al not to exceed lon cents a Uno per insertion; en? courage thc people to make known their wants .and transact their business through thc col? umns of your paper; classify these advertise? ments under their proper heads, and insert them In a conspicuous part of your sheet. By a little tact and considerable perseverance, you cnn establish this linc of advertising, and, once established, it will prove not only prolit ablc to Hie paper, but very useful to its patrons. When advertising; is dull, fill up with rending matter and disquisitions on nil kinds of local topics; and bc uot tempted to save compost-, rion by laking In quarter-price quack medi? cines. Thc additional rending mattel' will. In thc,long run, help your paper moro than enough to make good Hie cost of tho extra type-setting and loss of thc humbug advertise? ments.*- Establish a living scale for advertis? ing, and adhere tenaciously to ll. If your neighbor ls so foolish as to cut under you, do not follow his weak example; for he will hui t his own business far more than he cnn yours. Stand by your rates, and do ns nearly a cash business as it ls possible. Long credits la thc bane that destroys so many newspapers. It is this slow poison that kills thom, or causes them to drug out a miserable, sickly and unre munerotlve existence. All thc expenses at? tending thc publishing business arc cash, and unless you rccclvo cash for your labors, how can you expect to succeed or prosper ?" (iloparlncrol)ip Notices.
