have unfortunately no voice and no power
of direction. Our policy is that of g mas
terly inactivity. We have endorsed AND
still continue to endorse, President John
son, because others seemed to think an ex

men was expedient. $Wedoubt very much.
however, whether the approval of the South
is not the main obstacle to the success OF
Mr.. Johnson's policy.
But whatever may be the true the
DRY as to national politics, there can
be no question about our duty in
home affairs. Unity, harmony, and con-
cert of action are imperatively demanded.
We must work together. This is no time
to seek the advancement of individuals or
of parties We must now give to our coun-
try what in olden times we gave to party,
our time, our energies, and our hearty good
will. Unfortunately there are always
evil men among us attempting to pro-
duce discord and division. They
must be put down. To do this efec-
tually we must take more interest in our
State elections-in home affairs. These
are times when we cannot with advan-
tage instruct our public servants. No man
can now tell what day will bring forth
we are now more than ever compelled to re-
II upon the character for intelligence and
probity Of our public men. We must al
low them, in very great degree, to use
their own discretion and Judgment Such
being the fact, it is incumbent upon us to
see to it that our best men are selected to
fill the offices of trust in the State. We
must have men whose past lives have given
an earnest of prudence, discretion and judg-
ment, as well as devotion to the State
Every county can boast of many men in
whom all these qualities unite in such de-
gree as to render proper selections not very
difficult. Having done this, let us avoid all
violence of language, manner and action,
towards Northern men, attend strictly to
our own private affairs, and bide our time
as patiently as may be.

strong arm of power, and the South had
suffered too much already by the enforce
ment of laws which had no foundation but
might, for any considerations of that char
acter to have swayed their Judgment.
The people of New Orleans did only
what others would do, and only what was
necessary for their self-protection, and it
is useless for the Conservative people of
the North to found the reason of their
defeat in the natural conduct Of these
men If capital is to be manufactured
against the people of the South, and the
policy of the President in the fact of their
resorting to extreme measures in self-de-
fence, our political destiny is settled, for a
few unprincipled tools of the radical party
can, at any time, and almost in any COM
ulation to acts that will require prompt and
vigorous means to prevent. Ignorant of the
best means to secure their own welfare, it
is most natural that they should follow
blindly the lead of those to whom they are
indebted for their liberty, little supposlng
they would be offered as sacrifices for party
success or for party hate.
If the Presidents policy is defeated in the
Fall election, let it be placed rather to the
vindictive spirit of the Northern people
than to any conduct on the part of the
South to warrant it. We have, as a people,
obeyed the laws, been faithful to our oaths,
devoted ourselves zealously to rebuilding
citizens with honest hearts and with hon
est purposes. ..

For the .IOIlrl,
Cultivation OF the Grape and yyinc-Elal<inS
in North Carolina.

|
lEess''S. Eaitors:
| will continue these papers by resuming
the subject of pruning the ScGppernong.
I stated that had never seen it practised,
and yet we made large crops of grapes, and
of excellent quality, without pruning our
vines. | do not think the flavor of the
fruit could be improved by the most skilful
use OF the knife, nor by any refinements
on the present mode of culture Yet be-
ing without any actual experience on this
head, merely give this as my opinion,
which may, or may not be correct. One
thing is certain, it will require only few
years of experiment., carefully conducted,
to put that question at rest. Another point.
and one upon which European and Ameri-
can wine growers in other sections Law rauch
stress. is exposure, Now, so far as my OBJ
lseryahQ4l and experience warrant me in
saying, all that have found requisite for
the Scuppelnong to produce first quality
OF fruit, is dry, sandy and open SOIL
Its native region is level country-it has
been found to flourish we'll in situations of
that kind and all that deem important
as to exposure, or situation, suitable for q
Scuppernong vineyard, is that it SHOULD
shed water freely, and as FAST as it falls
ApoA it. lhe' vine does not produce
grapes of the best flavor in a stiff
wet soil and, indeed,1if it did, it would
form an anomaly among wine grapes, all
OF which require either a naturally dry, or
else drained soil to bring their fruit to
perfection. Yet those who know the conn
try am treating of will agree that hills
were not much used in finishing off Eastern
North Carolina and I conclude, therefore,
that just such a level eauassy, and q soil
sufficiently dry, where nature first placed
this vine, is all it demands to perfect its
fruit The higher portions of our sound
regions, bluff banks along our rivers, as the
Tar, Neuse, Roanoke and Cape Fear. or
the more elevated pine country, even those
spine barrens, " I would pro.
nounce most eligible sites fQr Seuppern.one
vineyards. Certainly, vineyard in most
OF such situations might require some fer
tlllzer to help it, Of one or, the other kind
before alluded to. But then, let me ask
what European vineyard, whether on the
Rhine, or In the vine districts of Burgundy
or champagne, does not receive its annual
supply OF bone dust, or superphosphate, or
:. other calcareous manure, In most of
the country aaapted TO the Scuppernong,
g or sea-she1ls would be easily accessi-
pie and, as have above observed, no bet
Eer manure for the Scnppefnong can be
found than these last named fertilizers. -
Even In this generally fat country, hills NAV
be found of considerable elevation, quite
sufficient, at any rate, to afford sHb-soil /
snpiy drained, and lit for q vineyard. The

Cape Fear furnishes, along its banks, many
such elevated situations and so, I presume,
do the Neuse, Tar, Roanoke, Chowan and
the other rivers of these parts. And if ex1
perience should demonstrate these to be the
most eligible sites for vineyards, am sure
this section can afford a sufficiency of them
to supply an immense demand. And ii
other well-drained soil, such as can be had
in any quantity throughout the Eastern
counties, is elevated enough for a Scupper-
nong vineyard, which my own experience
in this matter enables me, confidently to as
sert, and which almost every ones observa-
ton will confirm, then nature has been
specially kind to North, Carolina in confer
ring upon her the gift Of grape of rare
excellence, and supplying soil suited to
it's production to an almost unlimited ex-
tent. Further, beyond the boundriesi Oh
the State, both North and South. in all that
sandy country southwark to near Florida,
and northward at least as far up as the lati-
tude of Richmond, can be found locations
in abundance adapted to the! cultiva-
ton of Scuppernong vineyards. It is
useless to enlarge further on this point
for any one at all acquainted with the
region of country under consideration
is well aware that a proper soil and climate
can be had to almost any extent desired :
enough AT least, to furnish wine Of this
grape sufficient to supply the demand OF
all North America, and care not how much
of Europe besides. Thus much as to soil,
climate, manures and mode Of cultivating
your Scuppernong vineyards, In my next
[ wish to detail the process Of making wine,
and direct attention in particular TO its eff
fervescing qualities, which viii eventually
designate the Scuppernong as the Cham
payne grape of this continent. And if all
these rare qualities, found combined in
one grape, and that grape constituting our
principal fruit throughout all this section,
do not offer inducements to cultivate it ex-
tensively, or as DIR. Jackson above quoted
says g for planting vineyards Of this vine,
and manufacturing the wine on large
scale, confess ] know of nothing that cali
be urged which would have that effect. =
Then one of natures choicest gifts for our
advantage, will be condemned and neglect
