BY SIDNEY WKLLER, OF NORTH CAROLINA. About twenty year* sincc, I settled as a farmer and vine grower at my present residence. At first, an ardent friend of temperance, I was induced to turn my attention to the vineyard business, because learning from reliable information that in Eastern countries, where this species of culture is widely d> Mci.siuAtcd, little* or no Jui?>kcnj ness prevails ; and, therefore. 60 far as the vineyard oaaso Is promoted in our'country, the horrid vice of intemperance would decrease. The result of my vineyard enterprise and industry therein, is about a dozen acres of flourishing vines, mostly on scaffolding, or ns canopies, covering continouslv with Juanehes (and when in hearing, with leaves and fruit) overhead, from 8 to 10 feet high, and nothing is seen Itetwecii the-<e canopies and the ground hut mailt- stems of the vines, and the posts or the rook pillars to supoort the frame-work above. My annual 'yield of wine has been as^Tiigh as CO barrels; beside* entertaining hundreds of visitors at 25 cents eacli entrance, and 50 cents per gallon for sfelect grapes gathered to carry away. My vineyard i^ the largest, I learn, in the South, and I am encouragod to enlarge it every year. To 'show that the Scuppernong is the 44 grape of grapes," South, (it does not do well north of latitude 37 1-2 ?,) I may f-tate > that at our late fair at Raleigh, I took diplomas on grapes and wines, and especially > on the Scuppernong, as most highly com4 inonded by the judges,^ I exhibited Scup;J pernong grapes /our inches in circumferJ*,. cnce, unparalleled in size; at^d.no mean V ^ judges ofWine, from different parts of the country, pronounced my " Scuppernong pssr > bent ot wines; .>1 here digress, to slate that, of half a . dozen brands of the | _ The Pani^ig Buaineas.

No mistake is productive of greater mischief, both aR regards production and improvement. On tho score of economy alone, it would seem to be a blunder to employ a laborer worth oue thousand dollars, in doing work which a mule, horse, or yoke . of oxen, worth oue hundred dollar?, would I do much better and in much larger quantj^ * ties.
