we'll as ever, that my gay, intelligent talk,
80 different from the demure miss he had
expected, completed the business.
Harry was the son Of an old neighbof,
who had been abroad for three years, and
before that had been to college, so that had
never seen him, but uncle remembered him
at once and had insisted on his staying till
came down, though Harry, from delicacy,
would have left after an inquiry about my
health: Ny uncle was one Of those who
will not be put of, and SO Harry remained.
The luckiest thing he says, I ever did,
Milo is now my favorite steed, for Harry
broke him for me; and we are all as happy
as the day is long, uncle included; for uncle
insisted on our living with him, and / told
him, at last, I would consent, If ouly to
keep Poll Wilkes from cooking his dinner.
To which he answered. looking at Harry,
'You sec what spit-frs she is end you may
bless your stars if you don't rue the day she
went out to SiSn A HUsRAND.'

LANGELIER-A correspondent of the Montreal
Witness expresses the belief that this young man,
whose tragic end involved the trial of Miss Smite
for murder, once resided in the United States Hh
says:
ga person of the name and description of Ian
gelier, poisoned in Glasgow, was in this country a
few years ago. He came out with letters of intro
dlction believe, to Ellwanger & Berry, Rochester
in the Spring of 1S49, or, it might be- in the Fall of
AS. but did not remain very long with them, and
called upon me at Rosebank in the Summer of 40
He introduced himself as a son of Mr.. LAngelier
of Jersey the raiser of the celebra ed Beurre IAN
gelier pear; he spoke good English, and said his
father had sent him TO Scotland to be educated and
learn the nursery business, and had placed him with
Dickson Co, nurserymen of Edinburgh. He went
into partnership with Mr.. Mixer, in Detroit as
nurserymen, under the firm of LAngeier & Mixer
and in their card which he designed, he had a copy
of his fathers medal for the Beurre LAngelier pear
got from the French Horticultural Society
"He was very gentlemanly and plausible, and for
while every person liked him, but he was soon seen
through, and Mixer got rid of him in 80 or 81. He
then went to Rochester, and hung about E. and B s.
and though they would have nothing to do with
him, knowing him too well, he gave out that they
had engaged him to travel for ORDERS and got suits
of clothes from different tailors boots of shoema-
kers, &c. and then cleared out, leaving them in the
lureh. 1t may be a different person, but think it
is the same, it is not likely there would be two
young L ANGLERS of L'Angelier, of Jersey,
who had been with Dickson & Co., Edinburgh II
was about twenty when saw him in I849 rather
small, and quite Frenchman in his manners, but
spoke English without any French accent.

AMERICAN VINE CULTURE A FAILURE.-We see
by the proceedings of that body published in the
Cincinnati papers, the Cincinnati Horticultural
Society have had under consideration for several
days a proposition to declare the culture of the
grape in America a failure We have always look
ed upon it as a settled fact that any attempt to rem
der general the culture of the vine, would result in
to the party attempting it. Our reasons are
too variabe-One winter too cold-the next too open
and warm-oue summer is too dry and too hOt-an-
other is too wet. The truth is that land in the
Ohio river valley is worth more money per acre to
raise grass and wheat, corn than it is to raise
grapes. We regard it as settled that any
man who enters into the culture of the vne without
a capital like that of Mr.. Longworth, of Cincinnati,
will be ruined in ten years. We are sure that the
results of chemical analysis will show that all the
money Mr.. L. has ever made out of the vine culture
has been done by adulteratng the juice of the
grape and making little go good way. In sup.
port of idea would refer to the experience of
the early settlers of town The culture the
vine was commenced, where at an early day large
amounts of money were expended in the prepara-
ton of the ground, and planting grape vines, Now
there is not a farmer who has any vines who
takes pains to dOmore than raise grapes enough for
his family to eat, and to make enough to have a
drink or two in the hot weather. Indeed we may
say that in the vicinity driveway, where vine grow
ing was first attempted in America, it has been
abandoned, and men are raising hay, wheat and
