never saw. II is for little "May," and
bears her sweet name in handsome letters
on the side. We wish you much JOY, little
May" of your handsome present.
Now, here is an enterprise in new dl.
rcction--a breaking the ice in Richmond
in branch of manufactures which Is emi-
ncntly worthy of attention and support.
One Of the main elements Of the future
prosperity of this city is its manufacturing
capacity and industry. 1t is just in the
way OF small and unconsidcrcd fabrics that
the largest amount Of employment is to be
afforded to the largest number of persons
and it is in the producing population, in
its industry, that the city is to find its
strength and growth. Every citizen, every
Southern man, should encourage all such
enterprises to help along our own people
and keep our capital at home. Every man
who takes certain things and makes some
thing out of them that will sell for more
than they were worth is a useful citizen,
and adds his share to the common wealth.
Encourage him. This is the way cities are
built and made to flourish.
DISCHARGED CoSyICTS.-Some of the
papers, in speaking OF the arrest Of the
three convicts in llenrico county, charge
the Governor with turning the most vi
cious of the convicts out of the peniten-
tiary to prey on the people of Virginia.
Now, it happens that these convcts were
sent to the penitentiary by the military
authorities of the United States, and dis
charged by virtue of All order from the
War Department. The men that were dis
charged for committing rape, etc, were
worn-out old men. One of them had been
in the pcnitentiary for twcnty-four years,
and none for less than eight or ten years,
and were pretty much always in the hos
pital, and were discharged upon the re-
commentator OF the surgeon OF the pcni-
tcntiary. Part Of them hailed from what
is now called West Virginia. Let the Go
vernon be made anSwcrablc for only his
own acts of omission or commission.

heavy decline in rates at New York. Late in the
day dispatches were received which announced
q considerable reaction in the latter, how
ever, but they wholly failed to check
the downward tendency Of our Tarket
Offerings, however, were of a restricted character
throughout, and the sales, outside Of the Board,
have been confined to the following lots, viz :

FOREIGN EXcHANGE.-The decline in Gold has

The weekly Butte record., 1866-03-31

The planting OF yISErAEps.-fa all parts OF
the county old vineyards have been extended and
new vineyards planted this winter, 50 extensively
as TO make Butte rank among the leading ylnoell-
tural counties of the State. Everywhere. during
the latter part of the winter and the present
month the enterprise OF those devoted to the cll-
of the grape, is exhibiting itself in the bean
tifa valleys and especially the sloping foothills
Of cur county. We may safely estimate the grow
ing ynesin Butte county to reach the pres snt year
FIVE hundred thousand. next year from present
indications the number viii be doubled. with con-
slant annual increase In no part of the State has
better wine been made than in county But
in addition to this Successful culture of the grape.
it has, during the past winter been demonstrated
tha. the foot hills of Butte ir all sheltered locali-
ties are admirably adapted to the orange and lis
tropical family, the lemon and the citron. At Bid
wells Bar, Mr.. ketchnm has succeeded il raising
the very finest orange trees, which matured and
ripened their delicious fruit during the winter,
which WAS the coldest one ever experienced in the
county. Great difficulty has been experienced by
our citizens who have enlisted in the grape culture
in procuring choice foreign varieties Of the grape,
as we have not heretofore had any extensive nurs-
cry in the county,. We understand that this diff
elity will in future be obviated. and that at the
Hen Estari vineyard. about two and half miles
from 0roville Mr.. Granger IS planting a nursery of
all the best European varieties, and will be pre-
pared TO furnish roots and cuttings next season to
any amount desired, comprising at least sixty of
the best approved varieties; and that he is also
planting a nursery of the orange, lemon and cit
ron. sufficient 10 supply the demand. We hope
others will 60 into the business and their efforts
be crowned with success. Let Ms have an Associa
tisn of the wine interest of the county, formed the
present year, devoted to the elevation and exten-
sion of this valuable enterprise the culture of the
grape and manufacture of wine. Let that Asso-
citation have house opened in New York and Bos-
ton, to which our surplus wines shall be shipped,
and remittances from the sale of wines be
constantly pouring in from the Eastern States.
We hope to see some action taken by our citizens
upon this suggestion, in sufficient time for the
next vintage, so that an article which has the
whole civilized world for market and can be
made in but few climes, may not become drug
upon our home market.
