Grape culture, which is rapidly extending in the
West, promises to beeO an immense source of
national wealth. The vine has been completely
aColmatized in Ohio, and neutrality-suspicious. to
the energy, industry, and capital Of Mr. LOngworth
has become an institution there, yielding great
return for the money invested Nor is it alone IN
Ohio that the cultivation Of the vine, 'Which maketh
glad the heart Of man, is in progress. All the
midi West it is proceeding. Missouri, in particular,
with its German population, all ofWhom are lamiliar

in our Pennsylvania where the climate seems pecG-
iarly well adapted for the growth Of the vine, q
great deal of wine of various descriptions, is made
and largely consumed, though the manufacture has
not been on 3 sufficiently large scale any where, to
allow the wine to be thrown into the market
Except for the purposes Of luxury, and for mere
fancy drinking, scarcely any European wine ought
to be imported into this country. The leading quail
ties usedhere are four: Sherry from Spain; Sauterne
Hook, and other varities of ''Rhen-wein," Clsret
and BurgundysfrOm France, and Champagne We
might add Madeira, but believe that very little of the
real Madeira comes TO US. Where, oh where can
mortal nan row find bottle Of real "Southside,"
such as used to be drank in the States below Mary
and As TO Champagne, more Of is is HOmiHatiy
consumed in Russia than is actually made in France
aud the supposed consumption Of Champagne in the
United States is double the ascerGinei produce Of
the whole Of Euprope.
The various descriptions Of vine above named are
made in this country, particularly Rheiu-Wein and
Champagne. Here is a chance for the productions
Native Industry. Yet the Sau,erne and Cham
payne Of Ohio are comparatively little used by our
bbacious consumers. OF the purity, flavor, and
goodness Of our native Winesr We have never heard
any doubt expressed by those who have used them.

critic and the scholar compound Of fun and folly
blended by the power of genius into a character al

"hisss6p that he is only "one Of Dads fool 'speri

Tbs author of sut LOvengOOd's sketches-GEo. W.
HARRIS, Esq, Of KnOxville-has contributed many
goods things to the humorous literature Of the cOun

SPIRIT Of the Times, gained well meried celebrity,
and many of his other productions have been cir

siysly for our paper. We take this occasion to
acknowledge the Partially and favor which Mr..
HARRIS has constantly manifested for this journal
Partially which We appreciate as personal kind
ness to us, since We know that several Eastern
papers have proposed to employ him as a regular
contributor at high and reounerative prices.

intends to re-pubish his sut LOveDgOOd and other
sketches in book with illustrations by frst-rste
artist One Of the largest publishing houses in the
country has been negotiating for the py-rght and

Champagne for example. TheretaiI selling price Of

thoroughly unknown Ii Europe that We have repsa-
tedly seen and heard Amer cans stared ct and even
laughed al for ordering IT, isSl4 end the ordinary
price ct hotels and restaurants is s. bottle. The
price Of CataWba Champagne, made IL OHIO, Is also
Sl4 for basket Of twelve bottles and il is sold At 81

wine which people have used for many years. and,
above all, for foreign wine with high character,
whether deserved ornot STILL loaded az the foreign
vine is with high duty, and the expense Of trans
port across She Atlantic, it would seem to have small
chance in the market against good native wine,
not burthened with such expenses. The obvious
mode Of opposition, it strikes US, and one which
would speedily drive the imported wine ont Of use,
would be to compete by means Of diminished price.
In fact untazed as it is American champagne puFer
and better than what is called foreign, could be
retailed at 81 bottle, where the foreign" sells
for 81. The profit, at this price, to restaurants,
bars, and hotels would be less than On the 80 called
"fOreign, " but this would soon be made up by
greater aggregate Of profits, the greatly increased
sales which might be anticipated.
The Ohio wine producers have hitherto stood much
in their own light, by standing out with their I'M
taxed wines, against those imported from Europe.
That policy was not adopted no doubt without such
serious debetation thatit viii not be lightly aban
doned. We cannot Immediately look for any eonsid
