| The proprietors have already .ascertained
that thet can dispose of their wine at one
dollar and twenty-five cents per gallon
| (They,will probably receive more than this.
Eight hundred gallons at this rate would
| amount to one thousand dollars and the
twenty seven acres will yield the astonish-
ing iaeome of HeeRy sepen thousand dollars,
or one thousand dollars per acre. Now let
US supposet the expense of cultivation, gath
ering the fruit, manufacturing the wine,
marketing, &C., to be two hundred and fifty
dollars per acre, with the facilities at the
command of Messrs. Archibald and Hutch
inson it will amount probably to not more
than half of this sum, the estimate exhlb-
its net profit of more than tlcenty hous-
and dollars. -' -
Astonishing and Incredible as this may at
first appear, it will be found that it is by no
means an extravagant or visionary calcua-
ton. But suppose the yield to be but 500
instead OF 500 gallons to the acre, there
would still accrue net profit of over ten
thousand dollars to the proprietors.
These facts are we'll worth the attention
of parties who have lands adapted to the
growth of the grape; and much of the land
of this section is well adapted to this pur-
pose.
The writer would not, however, advise all
who have suitable lands to enter upon a
project of this kind. Something more is
needed in order to success. Determined
industry and perseverance, combined with
much practical common sense or philosophy,
re among the essentials to success in this
business. Messrs. Archibald and Hutchin-
son, although enthusiastic in what they un'
dertake, are BY no means visionary enthusl-
asts. They are men of practical, hard COM
mon sease-your true philosophers They
enter upon no projects which are not well
considered in advance, and whatever they
take hold of, seems to turn TO gold in their
hands
Were it not trespsssing too much on your
columns, Mr.. Editor, considerable might be
said Of the facilities of the Messrs. Archi-
bald and Hutchinson for manufacturing
wine from the grape. 1t may suffice to say
that they are prepared to express nearly one
thousand gallons of juice per day, They
assort all their grapes, using only the rlpest
and best for first class wine.
It may be a matter Of interest TO the
reader TO know that Messrs. A. and d.
have ia cultivation about one-fourth of an
acre in currants, of the White Grape and
Victoria varieties, from which they have
this season made over two hundred gallons
of most excellent currant wine, which they
sell reodily at 50 per gallon. They have
also less than three fourths Of an acre in
Lawton Blackberries, which last season
Welded them three hundred dollars in cash
for fruit sold, and in addition thereto, seven
hundred gallons of wine.
The enterprise and success of these gen
tlemeu should be published to the world

Military DictalOrships.

We have rumor from the South West,
resting on the authority Of deserters from
the rebel army who have come into our
lines near Vicksburg, that the Confederate
Gen. Kirby Smith has proclaimed himself
Military Dictator Of the States Of Louisiana,
Arkansas and Texas, and has issued proc
lamation calling out two hundred thousand
negroes, and is conscripting all the white
men in those States between the ages Of lG
and 60,
Ii this rumor is not true now, the day is
probably not far Off when it will be true
The Confederacy, cut in twain, as 1t now is,
can have no unity or cooperation In the
vast extent of territory over which il pre-
tends TO exercise authority. Hence tho
necessity on the part Of the Central Des
potism Of leaving the Extremities 10 take
care Of themselves as best they may. We
have no idea. however, that there is TO DO
but one or two Dictators the same neces
sity which has created one, will anon create
a dozen.
As for Kirby Smiths conscription, SO lar

agine that il will Live him many men. That

Some of our radical contemporaries
radical always, abolition by accident of re-
sidence--who are fond of printing the tren-
chant witticisms which the editor of the
Louisville Journal throws off at the seces,
sionists by whom he is surrounded, would
snlighten their readers more, no doubt,
than they are willing TO do, by printing the
following Observable from an editorial, in
the Journal of Monday last, regarding
party equally pestilent and dangerous with
the secessionsts, against which, chiefly, we
WELD our own pen, leaving Southern trail
tors to those whose arms can reach them,
effectively. Says the Journal
Between the Republican party OF Mass
achusetts or of Wisconsin and the disunion
party of South Carolina or of Mississippi,
there was no essential difference either in
theory or practice. The two parties were
essentially one. IF either had occupied the
geographical position of the other, either
might with perfect consistency have occu-
pied the others political position, and un-
doubtedly would have occupied it. Indeed,
the remark became proverbial, that the only
difference between an abolitionist and Sc
cessonist, was difference of place. He
who entertained the political principles and
sentiments common to both, would be, nat.
urally, an abolitionist in Massachusetts or
Wisconsin, and secessionist in South Car
olina or Mississippi, according as he hap
per ed to live in the one set of States or the
other. Given the place of such person,
and his political position was as good as
given also Thus closely associated in
principle were the two parties. And they
are associated not less closely and even
more conspicuously in tendency. They
PLAYED into each others hands in such a
degree that the present civil war is notori.

game of power. Nor have they ceased to

Notification, as weapon of sectionalism
I is for the present thrown aside, both Nortt

For the Wheeling Register
The Great Vineyard of Archi-
bald and Hutchinson

Mr.. EDITOR The writer, in company
with friend, had the pleasure on Saturday
last, ofvisiting the premises OF Messrs. Arch
ibald and Hutchinson, at Pultney Bottom,
Belmont Co. Ohio, six miles south Of Wheel
ing, on the Ohio river.
These enterprising gentlemen came in
possession of the premises which they oCcu-
DIV about four years ago. Three years since
they planted the extensive vineyard, about
twenty seven acres, which is now the admi-
ration and astonishment of all beholders.-
1t is doubted whether there can be found
in the United States, at this time. another
VINEYARD which will be likely 10 yield, even
nearly, the quantity or the quality of fruit
which this vineyard will produce this sea
son. The writer has had an opportunity of
seeing some Of the very best crane orchards
of this section, as well as those Of the East
and the West, but no where has he found
ANYTHING to compare with this IN point Of
scientific management and abundant Weld
of fruit as the result Of such management.
1t is estimated by these gentlemen that
their vintage this season will on an average
be about eight hundred gallons to the acre;
and it is presumed that no one, who has
had an opportunity of passing over their
grounds recently, will regard this as an ex-
travagant estimate.
It's thought by the proprietors that single
acres might be CHOSEN on their ground,
which will yield upwards Of one thousand
gallons each.
Taking the foregoing as correct estimate
of the yield of this vineyard, bnt little
arithmetic will be needed toenable any one
to arrive at the income for the present sea-
onfrom these twenty seven acres of ground

THE Madison (Wis.) Patriot offers re-
ward of $500 to 'iany man who will show
hat any Democrat north of Mason and
Dixon's line, by word Or deed, ever advo-
Gated dissolution Of the Union, or who
ever expressed desire, wish or thought
favorable to the dissolution Of the Union
under any circumstances" and then af6rms
that "the following Republicans and Re-
publican newspapers" (giving list which
includes nearly every leading man and pa
per. in the radical ranks) "have, in various
ways expressed, either directly, or under
certain contingencies, desire for the dis
solution of the Union" 1t then concludes
with the following cringing remarks:
"Now, all these are leading Republican,
and the list might be almost indefinitely ext
tended. We will not dodge behind mere
empty charge, without preof, that these men
and presses are disloyal to the Government
of this Union-we have their blisterng
record, as written by themselves, before US.
We have given that record to the public,
aud our Republican contemporaries know
we can do it again. Hence, they will not
call on us for the proof, but being the guilty
ones-being disloyal themselves-they sock
to escape the indignation of the people by
crying copperhead and disloyalty against
the Democracy-just as the thief attempts
to escape detection by CRYING stop thief
Now, then, if it be true (and we dare
any man to the test) that no man in the
Democratic party can be found who has
ever expressed desire, in any form, for a
dissolution of this Union, and all the above
named Republicans have expressed disloy-
al sentiments, is it not true that tue Demo
cratic party is the loyal, and the Abolition
the disioyaI party? We challenge any man to
full scrutiny Of the facts

The self qualification of the radicals
who in the face of then so recent nulli6ca.
tion personal liberty" laws, and their open
resistance to the National Government, on
the plea of State sovereignty, now seek to
overthrow State rights, and inaugurate Gen.
tralization, is stupendous. The following
is an outbreak of the Tribune in regard to
the Fugitive Slave law Says this present
contemner Of State rights: f
"Has nos,Ae Federal Goysynment that is
the supreme authority IN this Con- fsderacy;
the real authority IS in the States. Upon all
questions Of personal liberty, especially, the
State authority as paransount; it demands
that the attempted enforcement in State
of a Federal law which the Governor of
State may consider unconstitutional should
be resisted to the extent, if necessary, of
arms and it denounces the hesitation O. a
State Governor to adopt SO desperate
course, as disregard Of the palpable du,
ties of his high station, which humlliates
the State before paltry baad of armed
mercenaries ofthe Federal power, and leaves
'the honor of the State to be trailed in the
DUST"
All this in behalf of the negros right to
that babeas corpus whichis now denied to
white men What better proof can be
asked, that poaoer and not principle, is what
these radicals battle for? No party con-
tending for principles of right could SO
whihle and change with every seeming
change of party interests. The truth is,
the only thing to which they are true is
rabid hatred of the South and Southerners

We learn from the Times, that George
Sutphen, Of this city and John G. Ward q
have been arrested and on examination
held to bail, in Chicago, for forging Go.
vernment vouchers.
The vouchers call for 1928 40 for subsist'
ing recruits for Capt S. }. Shepherdsoa,
Co. c., 4th Ills. cavalry. Accompanying
the voucher is a paper signed by Col T. L.
Dickey, with authority to Capt s. to raise
a company for the 4th cavalry, dated o.
tawa, April 9th, 1862, the day after the battle
of Shiloh, at which time both Col. D. and
Capt s. were at their posts, in the regi-
ment, on the battle field.
Tie money was paid by c. c. Parks,
banker, in Chicago, on whose affidavit the
parties above named were arrested. Mr.
Sutphen, since his arrest, has said that
there may be forgery on the paper signed
by Col Dickey, but he is not guilty of it.
The signature to the vouchers by Captain
are probably forgeries. We
hope the matter may be cleared, so as to
relieve the parties named from suspicion.
