The Grape for Maine.

To the Editor of the Press:
The Delaware grape is decidedly the best
grape for open culture in Maine. 1t is hardy
and ripens before the Isabella or Concord
Every cultivator Of this vine in this city will
bear testimony to its excellence. Many give
il preference over the Black Hamburg, which
Is saying much in its favor. 1t is as sweet as
the Black Hamburg, Of beautiful color, spir-
tied, high flavor, sugary, rich with a delicate
aroma; it is in fact jewel of a grape-too
much cannot be said in its praise. More at
tention should be given TO its cultivation in
this State, for IL is certain TO mature in our
climate. Almost every house has a favorable
place for one or more vines; hundreds of per-
sons that do not enjoy the eating of this most
healthful and delicious fruit, might enjoy an
abundance with very little labor. After the
border Is prepared and the vine set out, it is
mere pastime TO take care Off it.
The vine will flourish best trained on a trel-
lis against fence, or shed, having a southern
aspect. A cheap trelis can be made by dri-
wing nails abont four feet apart and extending
a wire TO each nail Paint the wire and IL will
last years. As the season approaches to set
out vines, my advice is, to select the Delaware;
1t Is sure thing. Don't trust handbils and
flaming advertisements in praise of other grapes,
new and untried. Why run away from per-
fectly good thing ?-when you have certain
vs. ouuci Q W AZ anu ict otucts Wy experiments
The Delaware has given satisfaction through
the whole country; at all horticultural exhi-
bitions OF out door grapes, this one carries off
the victory; and at all discussions at the meet
ings of grape growers, the decided preference
Is given it. hope to see this vine extensive
ly cultivated this spring in our city, and over
the whole State. My own experience for sew
eral years as an amateur cultivator Is decidedly
In favor as the grape for Maine, of the
DELAWARE.

i COME NOT TO SEND PEACE, BUT SWORD.
PORTLAND, March %, 1868.
To the Editor of the Press:
l am well aware that women have nothing
to do with the affairs of government, but still
every woman, every true woman, cannot help
feeling great interest in the cause of truth
and right, and indignation at the growing feel
ing Of disloyalty In this city. Why, am
ashamed Of Portland! Last Sunday heard a
man preach In this city, before quite large
audience, and these were the words he used:
Now this conscript law has been passed, ma
ny Of these men see before me will be called
upon TO enter the army, and fight In cause
they have no interest in. and kill their South
ern brethren. As for me, will be carried to
prison first, and If l am not mistaken our pris-
ons will be full and running over, after that
call Is made. II am to be shot, will be shot
innocently here, and will resist even unto
DEATH" Admirable teaching that, Is 1t not
and In that large audience not one dissenting
word, but instead hearty Amens, think such
q thing should not be allowed, and If they are
passed over, we might as well give up to JEFF
ferson Davis At once. In this state of the
country, one such speech as that counterbal-
ances more than hundred Union speeches.
UNION.
NorE.-This strange language is said to have
been uttered last Sunday, in the hall occupied
by the believers in the speedy Second Coming of
Christ. The speaker, it is understood, has since
left the city. The fidelity Of the report is guar
anteed to us by the name Of our correspondent;
we have no right to withhold it-and yet we
could wish it disproved Meanwhile Portland is
not disgraoed by the incendiary utterances of
any wandering declaimer; still less by the law
abiding patience, which refrains from violent in
terruption Of the most dstasteful harrangues.
The responses are discredit to the city, as far
as they 60; but SO are the police reports. Igno-
rance and crime exist, they do not prevail in
this community. .-ED.
