THE VINE AND 1T8 FBTJITS. We are indebted to a friend for the pcrusul of a very interfiling pamphlet, entitled " Notes on Wine and Vine Culture in France," mid to lip froin the pnt of l)r Henry Hammond, of South Carolina- This document in mod'bsl in it* limits nnd pretensions, consistine of only twenty one pngen, hut it contains a vast deal of information ou this, one of the moat inlerejt.ing suhjecU thai ?aa engage the attention of Southern men at the present time. The author has evidently studied the Bulyect thoroughly, and present** the results of scienliffa analysis, combined n'ith minute nnd personal obeorvation in the wine-producing districts of France. We gather from it a few statements which, whether new or old, irtay bo'of i?<teresi to the novices in tlio vine culture. il)r. Hammond takes the postilion that Some , atraxl&uU urn necessary for mankind. "The spiritual am) physical natures of man are always mure or iu aulaguuisni tin; one with the oilier. The nervous system is llioil* field of conlliot.? Through it, and liy means of llm various stimulants, ilie balance of power between mind and matter muRt be adjusted. What stimulant to u?m, and how to imp it, is the great question.? The simplest, most effectual and least questionable solution which lias thus far been offered to the problem, seems to lie the Frenchman's pint of \?ine. If this conclusion be correct, the culture of tl?? vine becomes?what we have always believed it to be?an object of the greatest importance and interest, as the promoter uf a rational temperance reform. The quantity of land occupied by vineyards in Fruuo*. is estimated at a little more than tive j millions of acre*, or about one twenty-seventh i of tlio whole surfucc of the country. The average annual poilnee is variously reckoned at one billion to more than a billion and a half of gallons. Tho minimum yield is about 130 gallons |?er acre, mid as much as 4.0(H) gallons per aere him been produced iu the South of Francc. The average yield may safely be estimated at U.'it) gallons per acre. There are more than two millions of proprietors, &o that the uverage is only about two acres of ground to each. The culture of the vine in France is tliua mostly in the hands of a class who can afford but little outlay for im provement of their lauds or methods ot cultivation. The vineyards of Boideaux and Burgundy are an exception, as they are held by large proprietors who can make expensive outlays for improvements, and the advantage is seen 111 the superior quality and better prices of their wines. Even in tnose provinces, however, agriculture is too generally neglected by the educated classes, inosl of whom prefer to live in the cities and leave the whole care of their landn to subordinate agents. There is no improvement, and, indeed, scarcely any attempt at improvement, in ||IC system of culture. While with iu>, almost every planter and fanner has some theory, implement or mode of culture peculiar to himself, in France whole districts .ire cultivated in precisely the same manner and with cxactly the same impleincuts. Supposing the production of wiiib iu France to be a billion and u half of gallons per annum, and estimating its average value nt only ten ceuts a gallon, the whole value will be $150,000, <>00, a tutn which represents at least one eight of tho gross produce of the soil of France. One litre (about seven eights of a quart) of wine per dtij' is supposed to replace f"r a working man one-tenth of his food. The whole amount of wine produced in France represents, Oicrefote, the substance of About 1,000,000 men. " Still," nays our author, waxing elnqtipnt with the genial theme, " it is not in the blood and mu6cle of the laborer, couth* an that may be, Ihnl we can estimate tho value of thnt article, which, while it promotes conviviality nt tho social board, carries comfort and gladness* to tlie homea of the poor ; and while it gives courage to the aoldier, warms also the heart of the peace maker and the alms giver; inspires the poet; renders the orator eloquent; the lovor confident and materially contributes to the good digestion of nioet peraonn who use it aright.' With repard to the climate in which the vino will flourish, the isothermal line which traverses the regions of the Eastern Continent most favorable to its growth?that ia, Northern Italy ami the valley of Gironde?strikes America in the neighborhood of Cape Halteras, and proceeds thence, in a line nearly due west, until it reached California, when it makes a considerable dt-ll.'ction to the northward. The great difference, however, between our climnto and that of Europe consists in the greater extremes of heat and cold that we have, and not only in tho greater extreme, but in tho cruater diversity between the average temparature of winter and that of hiiiimcr. Thus the averago tfmp?r<\ture of Savannah is eleven degrees Imlow that of t'unchnl (Madeira) iu winter, and eight degrees al>ove it in summer. What effect these modifications of climate will produce upon the vine is a question thai has to be tested by experiment; and the remits of experience thus far, we think, have been very encouraging. The author of the pamphlet, before us thinks that the heat of summer in the Southern States will not be found prejudicial to the vine. At Kicholosi, on Mount Etna, the average summer temperature ia 76"?somewhat higher than that of Savannah?and yet the slopes of the mountain yield excellent wine. " Everywhere, as the climate, or even the season, in* creases in warmth, other things heing equal, the wine increases iu quantity, strength and sweetness." Intense heats are admitted by all authorities t<> bo no obstacle to the successful culture of the vino, unle>>* they are accompanied by cxcaasive moisture. With regard to this latter point, while the average annual fall of rniu is jrom thirty to forty per cent, greater in tho United Slates than in France, yet the elimate of ?11- J in icmiy intii!ii uainper mnu outs, on account of the greater proportion of cloudy days and of slow, drizzling rains. Wine is produced in France from grapes cultivated in almost tvery variety of soil. I)r. Hammond remark.", however, that lie has never failed, in any case, to detect the element of lime in considerable quantities, wherever difir-renccB might oxist in the other ingredients of thesoih. With regard to exposure, a word " pronoiineed by the majority of vine-growers wiih a certain mysterious air," the whole secret is that the vine ia a Southern plant, and man, in his endeavora to domesticate it in hie Northern home, has found that; tfie nearer the temperature can be ltiade to approximate to that of its native skies, the better will be the results. The best and most obvious means of accomplishing this object is to give it a full exposure to the rays of the bun. Hence the value of a Southern exposure in Northern latitudes. In climates more favorable to the growth of the vino, the " exposure" is a matter of little importance. If our limits would admit of it, we should like to draw more largely upon the valuable tract of Dr. Hammond for information revpectiuc the different varieties of the plant?its culture, protiav&lion. tli? ???- " n .......b^, mc mwcw ui maxing wine, Ac., Ac. We have only room, however, for a brief uotice of one other point. The vine in Europe has been propagated for centuries only by layering and grafting. There lias been no renewal of the Block from the need. The writer believe* that vines thus propagated must, sooner or later, lose their energy and become extinct.? Perhap* the u odium"?thnt disease recently so fatal to the vineyards?may be but a forerunner of the approaching dccay of the modern plant, " just as the old Massic and Faleriniau have long since become extinct. The time (six to ten years) required in France for obtuiningfruitfrom the seed is the greatobstacle. In this climate the time might be much abridged ; and Dr. Hammond advises those introducing tho culture to pay special attention to seedlings.?Mobile Tribune. A Model Car.?We have had the pleasure of examining a new passeuger car built by Mr. F. H. Alley, master carpanter in the Southwestern Rail Road abop at Macon. It ia now at the Central Rail Road Depot in this city, and it is, by far, the most complete, in all its appointmentp, that we have seen.

Lawson we recently had tlio pleasure of examining some interesting Rcvoliitionnry lelics, not to be prized on account of their antiquity bo initrh ns (heir nssciiution with " the times that tried mens' souls." One is an old Spanish coin, given to the father of Mr. Lawson hy Gen. Washington, during the Revolution, nnd which has been in his possession rince that. time, till recently it was turned over to the saftt keeping of hia son (II. \V. I,.) he having ulready outlived the time a lolled to man, being now four scorc and 14 years of age. The coin very distinctly bears the dute of 1741, making it 118 years old. The other perhaps, would be considered the more interesting, from the fnct that it is a relic from the old Fort near this place?a pine knot, out of which hns been most ingeniously carvcd tho head of an Indian Chief. Mr. Lawson took the knot with hia own hands from a log of the Fort., while a portion of the wall woe standing, some 13 or 14 years ago. NATURALIZATION. Hon. Lkwir Cash, Secretary of St?te, has written a letter to Mr. Hopper of Cincinnati, in which it in conceded thill KronM, nr a,ml?;??, subjects, or tlie subject* of any European power having a compulsory military system, mny be forced to service in the French or Austrian armies after their naturalization in this country, if the}- should voluntarily place themselves within tho jurisdiction of their native country. This idea would 6hch? to deny the right of expatriation, ,und that the oath taken in our courts re' noiincing Allegiance is a mere uiockor}'. We ran understand him when ho says that fugitives on account of offences against the laws of their native land, make themselves subject to the penalties of their crimes by voluntarily returning toils jurisdiction ; but we cannot comprehend why a returned native should be subject to penalties which hud not been incurred by any default of his prior t:> the time of his expatriation. If this doctrinc is tru<?, then all r.ntives leaving Austria or France before they had served in the aimy as required by law, could not become citizens of thir country according to the political in terpretation of that term in tho United States The applicant for citizenship is required, under the safcetity of an outli, to renounce all allegiance to any other power, but under the view taken by the Secretary of State, he may by n forced service and allegi ance be compelled to violate his obligation, and will not be entitled to the protection of tho government of his adopt ru cuuij iry. j EDITORIAL CODE OF HONOR. The Editors of PeniiHylvutiiu recently held a convention for the purpose of organising as a body and adopting any rule or measure which might conducc to the interest of the fraternity. The convention hit upon the following rule* ax something by which Kditors should be guided in their intercourne w ith each other . 1st. That moderation, fairness, and dignity are at all limes, honorable in the editorial profession 2. That courtesy, especially to colemporaries, is to be cultivated in the profession. 3d. That personalities, which necessarily lead to the degradation of the press, are to be deprocated. 4th. That in the conduct of newspaper discussions, the rules of "honorable war" should be obnerved. 5th. That the deliberate and wanton viola non 01 > 11 ma sen-evident principles, and of Bach additions an may be hereafter made, shall be deemed sufficient grounds for censure by the association, and if persevered iu, for the expalsion of a member. It is further deelared that "the wanton violation of thisoode shall subject the member so offending to a forfeiture of the usual courteaies of the pen." End of the Revolution.?.The revolution ia Chili has been ended after a bloody battle, fought between Gen. Vidawi with 4,000 govtrnment troops, and 3,000 revolutionists under Gallo, near Coqaimbo.
