WONDRRPfJL DISCOVERY.

In oar publication of the 27th ult. we quoted from "Tea
Gums:" London Paper, under the title of " Deporiant Dis-
covery," "that a young chemist had acquired mimeo., af-
fluence, via 10,0001. paid him down, securities for the pay-
ment of 5,0001. next Jeerer,; 5,0001. per ausum for the four
years neat ensuing; and enervated. 11,000/. a year f.ir his
life, fur making known to an individual a very calmer-
Jittery improvement to the art of tanning hides," die.
There has Just now come to our knowledge, the fact of
another, and a no less important discovery, made by a gen-
tleman of this conutry. It is a method of cultivation grapes,
whereby our own soil and climate may be made subservient
to the production of the most delirious yams of France, and
on as reasonable terms as the inhabitants of that country
enjoy them, and to as unbounded an extent. Nor is the im•
portanee of this discovery limited, as we are assured,to the
cultivation of grapes merely; it applies to every description
of fruit, active as well as exotic, and to must of the pro-
ductions of the vegetable world, whereby their quaotity and
quality may be Increased and improved to au iuconceirable
extent.

We further understand, that the gentleman to question
intends to give immediate publicity to ►is invertioa, and we
trust there is sufficient spirit and patriotism in Ma own
country to reward and encourage so truly important a
discovery. Viewing the subject is all its beatings would
require more space than we can at present spare; we
t, however, part it without anticipating the prospect
of the benefits likely to ensue from carrying this ismer'.
lion into effect, to the commercial interests and revenue
of the United Kingdom, by Its enabling us to have not
only • home supply of such wholesome and delicious
b ge as wine, but also to export to our colonial pos-
sessions a full supply of it, thereby keeping la our-
selves the immense sums of moury Ily paid to Frances
and counterbalancing the loss sustained by the adoption of
the cotton massfarture in that country, that heretofore
source of such wealth to ohne island% and of comfortable
employment to thousands ■ow almost destitute. In our
mind, should the matter be borne out equal tootle hopes, and
the professions of the gentleman in question, no dim y
ever made has a juster claim, on the Government and this
public at large.
Matters are this moment in progress for protecting our
Mead', invention from ionavation, by patents for England.
Ireland, and Scotland; and be expels that many days will
not elapse until he can with safety speak openly and freely
on the subject. He already holds one authenticated certi-
ficate, stating that a vine which, in the /minima of its yeara,
never produced more than 331 b. 10oz. weight, did, under hia
management this season, produce 116 lb. 12ox. of an un-
equalled description for sine and flavour, and 141 b. Bog. of
au inferior sine. The small grapes were used at table, and
muc► admired; the larger were pressed, are now fermenting,
sod promise to produce a wine of excellent flavear.—(Pa-
tr:ot, Dublin Paper ) _ _

Plistrn.—The dinner to be given to Lnrd
A. HAMILTON and Mr. FIUME by the guildry,
trades, snit inhabitants of Perth, is to like place
in the S•ilutation Hall next Thursday, the 19th
instant. The list of names is already numerous
and respectable.
