Tur y,,rAeE IN FRAscE.-We take the follow

man giving an account OF the results OF the las
vintage in the South of France, and describing the
extent of the damage sustained by each specific
growth:
..This wears vintage has proved lamentabiy bad
and defcient-even worse than was expected; ii
fact the produce of the whole of the South o.
France scarcely reaches tue sixth part Oh a ustla
average.
The proportions however, vary, some districts
Welding third, while in others it is about tenth
Or twentieth. The quality differs also greatly.
Those growths which have suffered least from the
vino disease and been most abundant are good,
while the others are OF the most wretched deserp-
ton.
aThe red Montagnes are generally deficient LII
color. body, and the characteristic seftness and
favor peculiar to them. In ChIistoi and St Drezery
there is nothing that can be recommended. Lam
Glade and Tcllaud are, on the whole, superior to
las. but want body and finish. The small Rhone
w;nes ard the ois-f uae-aua are quite unfit for
shinrept, being thin and poor. In st. Giles some
really good wine has been made-fruty, with color.
In Narbonne, owing to the gathering having been
too long DELAYED, the produce IS too sweet and, as
the fermentation has not gone on satisfactorily,
there il much reason tofear that the sweetness will
end IN acidtv. and even already many casks are
presenting a Sharpness OF taste and favor, This
renders very great cere necessary in selecting the
wines Of this district: but 1t - hoped that those
which while losing sweetness gam BODY and EayoT,
win prove excellent In Roussllloa there are few
toIerablv good growths though rather sweet, but
the Great proportion bas been destroyed BY the
disease and IS barely consun,a,e. The Travel,
ChuseIan. and RocqHenare, are almost an entire
failure Some Of the Chateau-neuf is good The
white Cotes, both small and best growths and
white wines generally are very inferior but vet are
better than the miserable vintage Of last year; of
! Gallon and Vim de Ores there is almost literally
none Picardan is decidedly superior to the '53's.
The little made is already bought up, but in every
growth of this year there is deficiency of body.
Muscats are complete failure being thin and dry.
aPrices are h;gh-enormously high-but there
is not the slightest chance of fall for the vintage
throughout France has been universally short and
bad; and as the stock existing seems scarcely suf
fcent for years consumption it is not surprising
that holders increase their demands"
WHY Ios'T YoU ApyEBrIsE.--Te those who are
complaining Of the severity of the times we address
this inquiry: Why don't you ADVERTISED It is just
the thing to help you out Of your dificuties-to
relieve you from existing emharrassments-to save
you. There Is no mistake about it, and the de-
monstrations which have been made within your
own observation, within the last seven Years, by
those who have advertised extensively, prove the
fact that advertising is the sure road to fortune.
Do you say you have not the means to meet the
expense, and cannot afford to do it? You cannot
afford not to do Is There is the difficulty. IF you
have not the means make haste to get theEa--send
a lot OF musty goods to aetion--or try your credit
Your increased sales and additional profits will en-
qhfe only m bIifs
but save yen from destruction, and inspire conf
denee in your creditors and the public. But should
this expectation not be fully realized you can hard
~ be worse off than You are. "Nothink risk, no
thing win.n You know that large fortunes have
been made by advertising you also know that
no ever advertised extensively and thoroughly
that did net succeed. Those who are doing bust |
ness must advertize or fail. 1t is true that adver-
using may not save all who are embarrassed, for
there are some whom erea Advertising however |
potent, cannot now save; but ii will save many |
al who are not hopelessIy insolvent-it will save
hundred who are nor doomed to certain failure I
without it. There is no sense in standing idle /
no sense in breeding over existing ills-the true /
way is to commence war upon thera-and do it |
through the means and agency Of the Press, which /
Is truly and emphatcaly the mighty lever Of the
business world" and you know it. Advertising is /
he grand remedy. 'sCast your bread upon the |
vaterss and IN short time it shall return to voi,
again. We ask no man to advertise for the sake /
# the Press, but for his own sake-to save himself
rom bankruptcy, and his family from penury and /
rant. The Philadelphia merchants and manufact-
rers and advertising vastly mora than ours are,
nd the consequence Is their trade is better than
