The many directions given for summer
pruning grape vines, are enough to beWilder
The novice, if not those Of some experience,
and hope, in attempting to elucidate, / shall
not further mystify the subject. As a gene
raj rule, prune as little in summer as you can,
and not let the vines get 50 thick as to cause
any Of the leaves in the thiekest places to
turn yellow, or deprive the fruit Of plenty Of
light and air. The winter pruning should be
more severe than is usually done. The vine
yard culture, where forty or forty-fve super
fcial feet Of land are allowed to a vine, from
thirty to forty eyes to a vine for bearing arc
plenty for most varieties. Never leave over
ono bud or Joint per surface foot of land
where the soil is favorable and where it is
unfavorable, the vines should be planted
further apart, and less number Of eyes for a
given surface left.
Now If the winter pruning has been prop
erly done, but little viii be necessary in sum
msr, and should commence early, by remov-
ing water sprouts, snperhuous buds, and,
whenever, from short jointed canes, or too
close training Of them, there will evidently be
too dense q mass when grown, thin out Q
part.
As soon as the fruit is set, select the shoots
for the next year bearing, which should be
grown on spurs, on the lower part Of the
Stock and trained as mucu as pEAcuchDlt
aside from the fruit, and above it, and have
the laterals picked out for threo or four feet
60 as 10 have clean for next year, and keep
the vine open near the fruit. Beyond this,
remove no Iaterals, nor stop the ends Of their
canes.
Some Of the fruit bearing shoots, partieu-
lafly those near the ends Of the canes, win in
cline to too much growth; these may be stop
ped at from three to six leaves from the last
aluster Of fruit. Of the fruit-bearing shoots,
except those near the ends Of the canes, but
few will need stopping, if there is full crop
Of fruit, and proper attention is given to tie
| ing up so as to keep the growth spread and
open. Always endeavOr to prevent growth
by stopping ends and removing buds, rather
than to cut away after the growth is made.
In all summer pruning and tieing up, care
should be taken that fruit grown in the
shade, should not DO exposed to the direct
rays Of the sun If the shade under which il
has been growing is removed, it will surely
Be injured, If not spoiled.
The best grapes are always grown in the
shade Of the foliage. They require ligl.5 and
circulation Of air. Those grown under the
direct rays Of the sun arc smaller, harder
pulped and inferior to those grown where
they have considerable rOteetion.-CHARIEs

Shareholder:
NEW ORLEAEs, May 18th, s62-Gentlemen /:
We have now passed q most trying crisis in
political affairs in this city. Most Of tho true
UniOnists and patriots have been victims, and
suffered in property and business, and still more
in feeling, under the most yindictive persecu-
ton. Our city is destitute Of everything. It is
useless to expect anything like a safe business
or personal safety in any port Of the Slave States
unless the whole country is held by military oc-
cupancy and military power. One-third Of our
population must be expelled from the country,
and their places supplied BY Northern eOlOnists.
II viii take years to subdue the proud despots
and overthrow finally their tyranny which has al
ways ruled absolutely wherever slavery exists
] have lived here forty years. / know almost
every one and aOmething Of everything that Is
going on. / think there will be a fine opening
for commerce here. New Orleans viii be a
greater center Of business in fnture than here
fofore.
Ny property is lying idle. am making no.
thing by my business, and am losing the reEe-
nue. Of ordinary times. Our currency is useless
for all business purposes. We hope Gen. But
Ter will compel our banks to resume specie pay
ment soon and scatter the confederate trash to
the winds. repeat, there must be q strict mil
itary occupancy Of this whole country for years.
The population must be hanged and slavery
abolished before peace and safety can be estab-
lished in any part Of this country. The old pi-
rates and buccaneers have only been driven
ashore from the Gulf by steam power on the
sea. They have hastily multiplied in numbers
and increased in Yillainy by the change
