STEAMBOAT AND RIVER NEWS.

The river is still rising at this point, and, judg
ing from the quantity of rain which has fallen since
Monday, is likely to continue, for several days to
come. Those parts of the city subject to overflow
are being rapidly submerged. The temperature
of the weather yesterday mild and sprin 1-like
The Cuba is the only arrival since Monday. She
and the Tempest are the only departures.
The great scarcity of freight has caused the
greater number of our steamboats, to cite up'' for
better times. We hope they may soon come.

CITY GRAPE VINES.

IT, ne Editor If The ". y. Tribune.
SIR. The results Of my experience with city vines
mr., that grape vine about fifteen years old, growing
garden behind our house, has for the last five
six years been regularly stripped of its leaves and
grapes by worms, notwithstanding the application of
various remedies, such tobacco juice, SULPHUR
burning, &C.. and We had almost come to the conclu-
sion TO cut il down. Fully persuaded that there was
means Of destroying these pests, i, this Spring,
adopted the following plan:
A. soon as the end OF each shoot had grown a few
joints beyond the last bunch Of grapes searched the
vine Thoroughly and in the end of almost every shoot
found small worms inclosed in fine web. imme-
diaiely cut off every shoot, TO within three or four
joints OF the last bunch OF grapes. These worms APP
peaIed to be Of different nature from the regular
grapevine worm.
Our immediate neighbors, who also have vines, did
not adOpi this plan. And whether this pruning had
any other effect than TO limit the sap 10 the grapes
and leaves remaining, could not determine; for 10 a
few weeks there came OF black and white spot
ted butterflies, which utered continually over all the
vines | examined the vine closely again. and in the
small leaves which had started out behind the larger
leaves l detected numerous grapevine worms, sur
rounded by small white specks which assumed 10 be
eege immediately cut off every leaf on which
could detect worm or an egg, and, notwithstanding
The lamentations of the ladies' and prognoscations
ruinpg the vine, have the satisfaction of knowing
that never for the last six years have the grapes been
