10 the recent address Of Hon. T. l.. Cling
man before the North Carolina State Fair,
he mentions in connection with the manufac-
ture of vine, and the difficulty Oh the Allan
tic slope of the United States of preventing
it's aoetous fermentation, remarkable fact
concerning locality of the western part of
that state. In district of few miles in
extent on the Tryon mountain, neither dew
nor frost is ever known. The same district
is remarkable for the variety and excellence
of its native grapes, and they are often found
in fine condition in the open air as late as
December. The dryness of the atmosphere
in the locality mentioned, and its equability
of temperature are most remarkable, and we
should like to know more concerning it.
