CINoINNATI, Dec. 8, 1856.
+. 5. CozzENs, Esq-My Dear Sir: |
have sold my wine crop of 1855 at Sl.50,
and 1856 at Sl.4O, in bulk, to the Mis-
sonn Wine Company. Owing to tue short
crop, our native wines will be scarce and
high next year. The demaud is SO great
West and Southwest that we cannot keen
a supply ahead.
Grape culture in vineyards, wherever
practicable, Is largely on the increase in the
United States, particularly in the Southwest.
lie soil and climate Of North Carolina and
Georgia are especially favorable to the cul-
uyalon o! the Catawba, our great wine
grape. The product there is enormous.
How II will hold ont has We. to be tested:
but thus tar it greatly exceeds the Ohio
Valley productions. 1t shows what this
fine grape will do in its native localities. II
has been travelling all over the United
States for 30 years, and is now Just being
llcd IN vineyards at home with wonderful
success. This grape was first found by Col.
Murray, in Buncombe County, North Caro-
Ina, in 1902, and planted in his garden.
From thence it spread to the North and
East, being but little cultivated South
where the Scuppeuoug and the Warren
were the favoriie wine grapes.
A letter from Mr. Longworlh, Of Cincin.
natl, says;

The Negroes In Africa.

We are permitted (says the Boston Post)
to make the subjoined extract from letter
written by an officer Of the United States
navy to friend in this city. The writer is
son Of late distinguished senator from
one Of the New England States. The let
ter is written from on board the United
States ship ST. Louis, and dated October Is,
1856, at Little Fish Bay, west coast Of
Africa"
"There is very little variety upon this
coast. 'Niggers!' slaves! 'niggersr is the
cry. This town is, like most other places
upon the coast, made up Of few people,
called white, and crowd, mass Of miser-
able. filthy, worthless, indolent, (niggers)
natives. II Charles Sumner, Jack Hale, or
any other sensible man, wishes or is viii.
ling to be permanently cured Of his mock
philanthropy and sickly sentimentality in
regard to the universal nergo race, be has
only TO take six-montbs' cruise upon the
coast Of Africa. If that will not cure him.
and convince him that his sympathy for
the .hree and half lfmilions of the happiest
negroes upon the face Of the earth Is mis-
placed, then have only to say lie is past
hope and past cure.
negro in one thousand upon the coast Of
Africa who is as well of, morally, physically,
or socially, as the worst-abused slave in the
United States. Slavery here is slavery in
deed, and Of the most horrible kindl Crr.
city practised here By black slave. owners is
heart rending TO witness. Some chiefs
| (black) own thousands-they sell, torture.
or kill them, at pleasure. Ninety-nine of
every hundred negroes, slaves or free, even
in towns, would gladly exchange their con-
di:ion with the meanest, most ill.treated
slave in the Union. 1t is impossible to pic
ture the miserable condition Of toe native
! African upon his own soil. Civilization, or
even partial culture, withsthe mass Of ma.
tives, is an idea so perfectly absurd, that it
does not admit of thought. With the
combined efforts Of million competent,
honest, industrious, persevering philanthro.
pists; with millions Of money yearly expend.
ed TO the best possible advantage for
million OF years, would not develop one
hundred native Africans who would be of
any account TO the world at large. So much
for 'niggers.' Having seen our negroes at
home in our southern States, and having
seen them here, regard the institution rs
it exists there as a benign, nay, heavenly
institution, and our southern brethren de-
serve the thanks Of the whole Christian
world for having ameliorated, in such stri-
king contrast with taeir brethren here, three
and n half millions of negroes. You may
imagine thai, although never democrat
pray for the election Of Mr.. Buchanan;
and mainly because upon this negro ques.
