DOUBLE PRIoE.-When our streets are
in bad condtion-sucb, for instance, as
they have been in for the past month
the draymen charge double price for
hauling. This is great tax. on the com
munity, and the double drayage paid in
the last ten years has been sufficient to
pave several streets with the Nicholson.
As soon as fine weather sets in we hope
to see the contractors pushing along their
wsrk on Second street, that we may have
one decent thoroughfare in the city.

Society met, pursuant to ad.
jonrnmcht, and was called to order
by the President. ,f
On motion, tho reading Of the
minutes was dispensed with.
Mr.. Boying, from the Council Of
Nine, stated that the Council was
not yet ready to make report on
The late Exhibition, bnt would
probably be able to make a full re.
port at next meeting.
The subject Of wine.making was
informally taken up.
Ar. Beving remarked that of
thGteen samples Of wine on exhi.
bitfon, a large portion possessed
some wrong taste, which he attri.
outed to improper handling in the
manufacture or want of cleanliness
OF casks or not keeping them full.
There are two ways of making
wine, and difference OF opinion as
to which is the best. One is to
press the grapes Immediately alter
gatbering-the other allows fer.
mentation to proceed TO some ex.
tent before pressing called fer.
menting on the lees. The latter is
the German method, and is said by
authorities to be unsuited 20 the
grapes of this country. Mr.. B.
preferred the fiIstnamed method
thought it made a more saIeabIe
wine He alluded TO the process
Of GaIli=ing, recommended by some
authorities, which consists of u lin
tied addition of sugar and water
to tho must, to improve tho wine
OF bad seasons and from grapes not
fully matured. Spoke of the use
of the must scale, for determining
the quantity OF saccharine matter
contained in the juice. The best
authorities seem to agree that this
scale must indicate degree OF
sweetness not less than rs TO 80,
in order TO make good wine-and
where it falls. s..short of this, il will
De proper TO add sugar and water
sufficient to give the required result.
Fully matured grapes, however, OF
kinds proper to bo used for wine,
making, should receive no such I'D
ditions, which are only permissi-
bic in cases where the grapes fail
from any cause TO attain perfect
ripcncss. For the purpose of sat
istactorily testing this question he
intonded to try this process this
season with that portion of the pro-
duct of his vineyard having the
conditions proper for it's applica.
