AMERICAN WINE.-We yesterday tasted a sam.
pie of wine manufactured by Mr. James Moves
nom grapes grown in his own vineyard at Holly.
wood, within two miles of Natchez. Connoissenrs
are at loss to classify this wine Il has the COM
blned flavor Of champagne, hook and muscat, with
out any effervescing properties 1t is delicious
beverage, and is the more to be priced since we can
De assured 1t is the pure juice. 1t is many years
since Mr.. Moves commenced the cultivation Of the
vine, and through series of discouraging circum-
stances that would have forced almost any other
man TO abandon the enterprise, he persevered until
ne mas now two prosperous vineyards of four acres
each' bearing, and has just set out a third of the
same SIZE Among the difficulties he had TO en-
counter was the discovery of the vines adanted tn
'he climate and soil. After trying numerous snsci.
mems from every part of the continent of Furone
IN which the grape is grown, and from Madeira
and other Atlantic Islands, he at last fonnd ,bo
suitable descriptions, and it is from these the vno
we speak Of is manufactured. One of the obiec.
tons TO wines manufactured from American eroyvtb
Is that they do not stand sea voyage, without an
admlxlure of brandy. Mr. Moves, believing his
VINE to be free from this objection has sent several
masks across the Atlantic to test its power. Should
ms opinion be confrmed-and we earnestly hone II
may-lt will establish him as the most successful
pioneer IN the culture Of the vine and the introdpc

The RAIN. Last Saturday and Sunday o
very heavy rain fell doing some damage TO
highways, though not great, and also to the
railroads. A piece ofihe Central or White
River, we understand, was washed away and
the running of the cars impeded;-the Pas
sumpsic was but slightly injured-the trains
run on Monday as usual. All the damage
done was the washing away slightly the sand
in some places; no more, however, than
would DO expected upon new road.

nJPThe law on our State requires that, in
the election ola Uni,nd States Senator, the
Senate and House shall each elect separately
and then go into joint Assembly to compare
their doings. 1t is well known that the Cass
and Van Buren, men ofthe House resorted to
all sorts of stratagems TO avoid vote TO pro-
coed to an election of Senator; but finally
vote 10 do so was obtained; but in order to
carry out their plan to defeat an election they
voted for great variety of candidates;on the
Sd ballot, for some so different persons; bu,
at this ballot Mr. Upham obtained majority
ofone and thus they were compelled to 20
into joint assembly, and these fnctious pro-
ceedngs were stopped. For this manly
transaction, as well as the no less worthy OBJ
Grafton of taxing the State thousand or two
of dollars in delaying the choice of speaker,
we are indebted, probably, to The inroduct-
ion into the State ofthe Albany regency tao
tics,so long prnctsed Ivy that notorious polit-
ical gambler, Martin Van buren,.
