STOP IMPoRTATIoNs-Mo are now
on foot in the loyal States, to stop importa-
ton of silks. jewelry, &c. Why not include
wines and liquors? Are our patriotic ladies
aware that more gold is paid to Europe for
these articles than there is paid for silks and
satins, and these articles, too, can be replaced
so wei. with our own pure native wines? We
called in house on River street not long ago,
and in the wine cellar we tasted of straw berry,
Blackberry, cherry. and other wines, which to
us tasted far ahead of the imported ports, sher-
ries, DC.
In the June number of HUrper's Monthly
may be found a highly interesting treatise up
on wine making. "The production of wine,"
says the writer, lis the most important branch
of agricultural industry on earth; at all events
there are only to be compared with il, the cul-
ture OF rico, which forms the staple food of
nearly one.thrd of the human race.
Europe is the main seat of wine culture, pro.
ducing lite more than three thousand mil
lion gallons year, which; estimating the av.
erage value at place of production, is worth,
on the spot, more than eight hundred millions
If dollars. in gold.
Messrs. Bennett Peters 4 Co., of Chicago,
have for the past three years been making ex.
tensive preparations for the ma. ufacture Of
homemade wines. They have the most ex-
tensive arrangements with fruit growers, and
in the proper season they gather strawberries,
cherries, peaches, blackberries, raspberries,
&c, DC, to an enormous amount Their wines
far excel many Of the imported wines, both in
purity and exhilirating effects. Many of these
home made wines are being largely adultera-
ted. Buy none but those with the unmistaka-

gentlemen are men OF high responsibility, and

McClellan's Acceptance.

We need not direct the eyes Of our read
ers to the admirable letter of Gen. McClel.
Ian accepting the nomination as the Demo.
cratic candidate for President of the United
States. All will read it, and read it care
fully, as the language of hero and
patriot whose highest ambition is to live
and act within the limits of Constitution
and Law and to restore our country to the
proud position it once occupied among the
nations of the Earth. When follower of
Lincoln finds fault with it Just ask him
whats the matter ?" Get him to show
the precise point to which he excerpts and
ne will tell you sit does not agree with the
Chicago Democratic platform" Then ask
him where the point of difference lies and
Mean't find IT.
Contrast his manly, statesmanlike letter
Of acceptance with the low and contempti-
BILE reply Of Lincoln to his Baltimore Office
holding servants: ut is not safe to swap
horses while crossing stream" and then
decide who b most competent to pilot the
vessel Of State out Of the fogs and breakers
which are closing around it under the rule
OF the most despicahle charlatan that ever
disgraced an Executive Office. We confess
to loss Of patience in writing about this
man LINCOLN. Ruled by his wife at
Springfield, 1--WE can prove it from the testi.
mony Of his own supporters,) .badgered by
the same character at Washington, con.
trol!ed by fanatics from Boston, obliged to
tack in politics till his word even to the
Chicago clergy is worthless, treated with
contempt by those who use him, forced to
back and fill at the command of the least
important of his cabinet, playing with the
Constitution Of his country as with rag,
banishing men like Valland;gham for
language called reasonable, and permitting
his wife to send boquets to the wife of
Fernando Wood whose language has been
twice as severe on the Administration and
the war as has been that OF Vallandigham

send a person to Richmond. and the government
would consent to give up Gen |. r. Trimble, or
any other Brigadier General in our hands, for
Major White they would be able to secure the
exchange of the latter The President, after
consideration. aud in view of the urgent solicit
ations made, gave his consent to both these prop
ositions.
The selection Of Mr.. War6eld was made by
relative of Major White, who thought that his
known disloyaIty here would give him influence
at Richmond Mr. Warfeld was approached on
the subject, and consented to accept the mission.
The Government carried out its part OF the agree
ment, and he is now in Rchmond0 deavorng to
secure the exchange of Major White for Brigader
General Trimble. The rebel authorities have.
for some time, been anxious to secure the release
of Trimble, probably because, being prisoner
OF war he is also under indictment for treason in
the United States District Court of this State
Their agreement to the exchange is, therefore,
altogether likely
IL will be seen from this statement that Mr..
Warfield's errand to Richmond has reference
solely to the release of Major White, and not 10
other and more important business as some OF
his friends have intmated; and that lie goes, not
as the agent of the President or Mr.. Stanton
neither OF whom knew Of his selection, but sim.
ply private intermediary between the friend:
of Major White and the rebel authorities. We
have our doubts whether, even in this unimpo Or
tant capacity. il was wise to send Mr Warfeld II
Richmond, but it is right that the real facts il
the matter should be known and the affair brough
down to its proper level.
