GRAPE CULTURE AT THE WEST. A Western
correspondent Of the Portland Argus writes as fol-
lows respecting the culture of the grape in the val
ley ofthe Ohio:
On my recent visit to the East, Western gentle
man who sat near me at dinner at the Astor House.
sent me bottle of wine, and glass, to drink with
him. After dinner, he informed me that the wine
was OF his own manufacture, from grapes of his own
cultivation. About five years ago, as he informed
me, he planted three and one half acres in grapes
on his own land, few miles below Cincinnati. and
last year he made $500 gallons of Wine This wine
he sold for dollar and quarter and dollar and
half gallon; and after paying expenses of manufac-
ture, the three and half acres of vines gave him
nett profit of $4,000! Five hundred gallons to an
acre Is not an uncommon yield; anything less than 8
or 400 gallons Is considered very small one. All
kinds of grapes cultivated for the table, and as
experiments; but the grape relied upon for Wine and
mostly cultivated is the Catawba There is no bet
ter table grape than this. There are few Isabella
vineyards; but the wine from them is not esteemed
Vineyards are springng up all along the hill-sides,
from about 90 miles above, and so miles below Gin
clnnati mostly in the States of Ohio and Indiana
The hills for some distance from the river, on both
sides, varying in extent from one to several miles,
are peculiarly adapted to the grape culture They
are iuil OF rotten lime stone which is constantly de-
caying, and thus furnishing perpetual supply of
manure The grape cropfa here about as often
as the apple crop of New England; the failure be-

OF the Legislature to enact laws for the
punishment of vice, it is no less its duty TO
remove the causes which frequently lead to
the commission Of crime. The impression
made upon the youthful mind by the gentle
force of parental authority and example
and by the associations of the family circle
are among the most active and enduring of
the Influences which control the conduct of
after life. Much of the vice that we are
called upon to deplore, may be traced to
the early removal of its subject from the
reach of that authority and example. aud
from the innocent but wholesome associa-
tons of a home, however humble. The
cause Of morality, no less than the dictates
of humanity, demand the preservation of
the family circle, and the maintenance Of
the family home, efficient preventives Of
vice, and sure and permanent contributors
to individual virtue and happiness, and to
public prosperity and order"
This principle has already been incorpo-
rated into the codes of several of the States,
and although in this instance, as in many
others involving reform in the condition
Of ancient laws, there may be much oppo-
sition in the onset, it will eventually be gen.
orally adopted.

Chemistry of the Stars.

This singular head forms the subject of an
article in the British Quarterly. The design
of it is to show that the forms of life exist
ing in this world are not repeated in the

interest. The data from which it reasons
are the variety in weight, superficial phe-
nomena, forms and color, of the heavenly
bodies. 1t is shown to be impossible that ii
system of animal and vegetable life, resem-
bling that Of our globe, can exist on many
Of them. The dry and rugged surface of
the moon, volcanic, yet without sea and
without atmosphere, the varying quality of
sidereal light, and the chemical poverty of
meteorItes or air stones, as far as their COM
ponent substances have been discovered BY
analysis, are among the data Oh which it is
argued that the stars are not feiiuric that
they do not resemble the earth in their CON-
position, and, therefore. that life must be
otherwise sustained OH the surface of those
orbs, if it exist at all, than on ours.
The chemistry of the stars, it is inferred,
must differ from the chemistry of the earth
the grandeur Of the universe and the
grandeur of Omnipotence are not obscured
but vastly illustrated by this general fact of
DIVERSITY diversity that is already seen
to surpass all previous thought and all poss-
bic conception. Yet there may be as wide
a range OF vital as of chemical diversity,
and the reasons Of analogy are urged in be-
half of the hypothesis that the stars are in-
habited, are in no way invalidated by the
discovery that they are motor that MANY
of them are not-adapted to the sustenta-
ton of such living beings as dwell on the
