The VINEYARDS OF CALrFoRSfA Mr.
Buffum, in his speech in the California
Assembly, wherein he proposed TO ex mpt
California wine from the provisions of the
prohibItory liquor law, gave the following
interesting statistics concerning the cul-
ture OF the vine in that State:
I'm Los Angeles county-the vineyard
OF Callfornia-there are already under cul-
iivatlon as many acres covered with tie
vine as there are in the whole Of the great
State Of Ohio, the pioneer in the wine man
ulaciure Of the United States.
I'm Los An reles the number OF bear
ing vines amount TO 800 900 the number
Of acres under grape culture is | 500 the
quantity Of wine which can be made to
tie acre is 400 gallons the amount OF
capital invested in the grape culture is
3 COO 600, and the number Of persons
engaged in the various branches of the
business Is 1000. Thus, these 800
acres only under grape culture can pro.

IMPROVEMENTS The old brick building,
on the corner Of Main and Second, is fast
coming dowr, and the pieces are to be
put up into brick buildings in another part
Of the city, on lots belonging to Sample and
McCune. On the site of the old building
Mr.. McCune intends 10 buld three story
brick, forty by seventy five. This will be
very desirable addition 10 that corner.
We ere pleased to see that workmen
are again engaged in excsvating the cellar
for A. p. Thomas il Co.'S new store, near
the corner of Main and Fifth. This work
wa. interrupted some months since by
the caving in Of the earth from the adjoin-
ing lot, thus causing large additional ex-
pense. which ought TO be shared by the
owner of that lot. AS there are adverse
claims to the lot, there has been some de-
lay in adjusting the matter. But the work
is now going ahead, and by next October
Thomas expects to have up one of the
finest business houses on Main Street.
Mr.. ID. w Kilbourne's block, next to
fuckers Hardware Store is now progress
sing finely. The foundations are massive
and the superstucture will be an orna.
ment to AZ ain Street.

WHAT DOES 1T MEANT

Mr.. Brooks, of the New York Express, Know
Nothing, writes from Philadelphia on Saturday:
"The members have nearly all addressed the
people tonight
"Mr Ford, of Mansfield, Ohio, the eloquent
stump speaker, adheres to and acts with the
National organization. He does not approve
of the Platform, but he does not mean to follow
Wilson and the Massachusetts, Hiss lead. He
sets down the Hiss party as veritable know moth
ing men.
"Some twenty others, that started under the
Hiss organization, have come back to the Ma
tional fold Things are settling down agreea-
bly,.
"It is not pretended that Northern and South
ern men can agree upon Slavery. The Plat
form designs no such thing. At least it is but
the opinion of the Council. There is no reason
why every Northern American should not 90 on
and act with his organization just as ever. No
body has been turned ont ofthe Convention. The
bolt was predetermined in Boston by the Bos-
ton leaders, and they voted to carry it out from
the start.
massachusetts, under her new leaders, aban-
doning. her Websters, Everetts, Choates, and
Winthrops, is without influence or respect in
the Union"
There are other evidences that there was no
real schism at Philadelphia, but that the inten-
ton is to hold on, and next year go in with the
South for President. Will not the Order in this
region take open ground, that they may be seen
and known of all men? After knocking the
blinds from their windows, will they not also,
like other organizations, knock the locks from
their doors2 The people have right to know
what their neighbors are doing upon matters
that concern all equally.
The national era. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1847-1860, 1855-07-19
THE RHODE ISLAND PLATFORM.

The Know Nothings of Rhode Island-the
secedcrs-have come out with new platform.
We are disappointed with it. 1t is quite as
proscriptive as the old one, and simply advo-
Gates the restoration of the Missouri Compro-
mise in reference to Slavery. The Fugitive
Law, Slavery in the District of Columbia, and
Slavery Extension in new States or Territories
all these great questions are passed over.
Here is one plank in the platform:
obedience under God to the Constitution
of these United States, as the supreme law of
the land, sacredly obligatory upon all its mem
bers, and steadfast resistance to the spirit of
innovations upon its principles, however spe-
cious the pretexts. Avowing that, in all doubt
ed or disputed points, it may only be legally
dscertained and erpouaded BY the judicial
po,oer of the United States. A habit of rever-
entail obedience to the laws, whether National,
State, or Municipal, until they are either re-
pealed or declared unconstitutional 6y the
proper authority" 49,.
Please note the italicized passages. Accord
ing to this plank, we must obey the Fugitive
Slave Law until slaueholding Judiciary de-
ctares IL unconstitutional. Out upon such a
doctrine. No freeman will subscribe to such a
platform.-Hartford (Ct.) Republican.

ONE OF THEM.

BATAVIA, KANE Co., ILL.,, June %, 1855.
Your course upon the darkest of all dark
questions, "Samism," meets my honest appro-
val, though / must acknowledge that my views
have changed materially within few months,
as have those of many others in this vicinity,
with regard to this "Sam." l have no doubt
that multitudes have Joined the Order with the
impression that they could advance the Anti
Slavery cause, and at the same time put down
the "breaks" upon Roman Catholic political
iutrigues, and thus turn back that food which
lin Imagination, if not otherwise) was soon to
wash away the foundations of our republican
Government. 1t is an old proverb, bat true,
that experience is dear school, but fools can
learn in no other A man may be Know
Nothing, and about that time be Know Some
thing. Some have seen the elephant, and are
perfectly satisfied about the animals qualities.
There are those here, as elsewhere, who love of.
fce-be the office that of pound master or vii
lage dog whipper-who will be all things to all
men, so long as they can use them as tools. As
it is here on a small scale, so it is in regard to
this Know Nothing movement as political Or
ganization. Leading men in this matter-dem-
agogues they are, of course-will entice, by
smooth speech, some into the Order; and once
there, they think to keep them in their den,"
to use as instruments to forward their designs !;
but thank God their network is too himsy to
hold any man who has ever known what true
freedom is. What good will ever result from
wholesale denunciation of those who, God ap-
pointed, were born outside this boosted land of
the free and home of the brave? l would it
were so, and not the land of the lash and home
of the slave. May those who have gone over
to the devil of late-I mean the demon of the
South-get their fill we do not want or need
them, if re will but arouse to sense of our re-
sponsibilty at the North. A. F. G..
