GRAPE CULTURE IN VIRGINIA.

Mr.. IT. Kennedy, President of the
Kentucky Horticultural Society asserts,
that Grape culture in this country is
infinitely more profitable than it is i'll
Europe, where, from single species
more than two thousand good varieties
have been produced, and upwards of
four hundred of them are now cultiva-
ted in France and Spain, exclusively
for wine.
Another authority on this subject
states ssthat two hundred and fifty gall
Ions per acre is considered very mod
crate estimate of the average crops of
American vineyards, four times that
amount having been produced, and one
dollar gallon is certainly a very low
figure for the product" .-. s.-
Descending to details, the estimated
yield per acre in Ohio is 200 gallons, in
California 500 gallons. In North Caro-
lima the native Scuppernong will yield
735 gallons of pure wine, which would
bring in any market 50 per gallon.-
This would aggregate, gross, 81 ,4S0.-
From which deduct cost of sugar Sl00,
cost of labor $200-a net balance OF $l,-
270 per acre will be left.
AS to the adoption of the soil and cli-
mate of Virginia to vine culture, says
the Wing, we do not want proofs. 1t
has been fully tested. 1t is not alone
our prejudice and partiality, that claim
it. Foreigners and visitors from the
North have satisfied themselves in re-
gard to it. We have before us at this
moment an article on ''The Virginia
Vineyards" extracted from the Practi-
cal Farmer, published in Philadelphia,
which expresses the opinion that the
Vineyards of the Piedmont Valley
'swill become an important source of
wealth to Virginia." 1t alludes to
their freedom from rust and mildew and
the protection afforded them by the
surrounding mountain ranges; states
that they escape uniniured when even
the excellens vineyards at Erie suffer.
and that the grapes ripen nearly i
month earlier than New York varieties
aud surpass them in fruitftdness ald fia-
v0r.

Understanding that great Radical
mass meeting was to be held in Pande-
present aspect of American affairs, /
procured complimentary ticket from
Brother Hunnicutt, who is the agent
for this district, and took the under
ground railroad on Saturday evening
last. The trip was short and pleasant
one, being down grade all the way, and
the descent proverbially easy. In a
few hours the cars arrived at the far
famed shores of the river Styx. Here l
found that a capacious wharf had been
erected, and instead Of the classic dug
out by which l expected to be terried
over, | found splendid new cigar sha-
ped propeller, called the Gen. Grant,
ready to receive the passengers.
stepped aboard, and Immediately walk
ed up to Captain Charon's office to set
tie, offering him ten cent green back,
but the Captain returned it to me, in
dignantly, and demanded silver. For-
tunatcly, had a dime which had been
long keeping as pocket-piece and
numismatic curiosity, and was thereby
enabled to pay my passage fee. then
entered into conversation with Captain
Charon, whom l found quite pleasant
and communicative. Admiringh his new
steamer, and expressing my astonish-
ment at its substitution for the old fer
ry-boat, he told me that his business
had increased so much during the Am
erican war, and his strength was so
much worn out, that he had been COM
PEELED, out of his unaccumulated earn
ings to have a steamboat built, and that
he had named it the General Grant to
please the Yankees, who were his prin-
cipal customers. The boat was de-
signed by the distinguished American
engineer, Colonel Charles Ellet, who
had tried very hard to persuade him to
construct suspension bridge across
the stream, but as is was against the
to cross the river Styx by any other
means than boat, the Colonel had to
be content with building steamboat.
He moreover informed me that the
lakes in hell had become so crowded of
late that none OF the new comers could
be accommodated with hot bath, but
that Colonel Ellet had obviated the diff
ficulty, and distinguished himself very
much by constructing immense reser-
voirs in some of the valleys, which, by
means of can ais and tunnels communi-
eating with distant seas of liquid fire,
were kept constantly filled, thus afford
ing ample accommodationtor all. Our
interesting conversation was stoppec

THE JOLLY OLD pEDAaooUE.

Thcre was a jolly old pedagogue, long ago,
Tall and slender, and sallow and dry;
His form was bent and his gait was slow.
And his long, thin hair was white as snow,
But n wonderful twinkle shonein his eye;
And he sang every night as he went to bed,
"Let us be happy down here below;
The living should live, though the dead be
dead,'
Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
He taught the scholars the Rule of Three,
Reading, and writing, and history too;
He took the little ones on his knee,
For n kind old heart in his breast had he,
And the wants OF the littlest child he knew.
LEARN while you're yo1ng,' he often said,
"There is much to enjoy down hdxe below;
Life for the living, and rest for the dead! ~
Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
With the stupidest boys he was kind and
cool,
Speaking only in the gentlest tones;
The rod was scarcely known in his school
Whipping to him was a barbarous rule,
And too hard work for his poor old bones
Besides, it was painful, he sometimes said;
ave should make life pleasant down here
below,
The living need charity more than the dead
Said the jolly old pedagogue long ago,
He lived in the house by the hawthorn lane,
With roses and woodbine over the door;
His rooms were quiet, and neat, and plain,
But spirit of comfort there held reign,
And made him forget he was old and poor,
II need SO little,' he often.said;
.And my friends and relatives here below
Won't litigate over me when I'm dead"
Said the jolly old pedssogue, long ago.
But the pleasantest times he had of all
Were the sociable hours he used to pass,
With the chair tipped back to neighboring
wall,
Making an unceremonious call,
Over pipe and a friendly glass;
This was the finest pleasure he said,
OF the many he tasted here below;
"Who has no cronies had better be dead"
Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
The jolly old pedagogue's wrinkled face
Melted all over in sunshiny smiles;
He stirred his glasswith an old school grace,
Chuckled, and slipped, and prattled apaee,
Till the house grew merry from cellar to
tiles.
1--WE fingered long time here below;
But my heart is fresh if my youth is fled"
Said the jolly old pedagogue, long ago.
He smoked his PIPE in The balmy air
Every night when the sun went down;
And the soft wind played in his silvery hair,
Leaving its tenderest kisses there
On the Jolly old pedagogues jolly old
crown.
And feeling the kisses, be smiled and said
"Twas glorious world down here below
Why wait for happiness till we are dead %
Said the jolly old pedag ogue, long ago.
He sat at his door one midsummer night,
After the sun had sunk in the west
And the lingering beams of golden light
Made his kindly old face look warm and
bright,
While the odorous night-winds whispered
"Rest rs
Gently, gently he bowed his head, aE Fr
There were angels waiting for him, I know;
He was sure of his happiness living or dead,
This jolly old pedagogue, long ago.

Da. E. DILLON & Son send greeting
to the public generally with some of the
reasons why it will pay 10 invest money at
their Drug Store:
1st. Because they have the largest Stock
of Drugs in Fremont.
2nd. A greater variety of Patent Medicines
and all other kinds of Medicines than can
be found at any one Store in Ohio.
Sd. They have incomparably the largest
Stock of Wall PAPER and Window Shades in
Fremont.
4th. Extensive Dealers in School Books,
States, &C., Books aud all kinds of Station
cry.
5th. Entirely the largest dealers in White
Lead, Paints, Oils, Brushes, and nearly eve
rything under the sun used by painters or
in any wise appertaining to the paint trade.
9th, so to Is per cent. larger stock Of
Window Glass (best brands) than is carri-
ed by any house in Fremont,
7th. Because their ruling aim and effort
is always to keep the best of every ything in
their line and their guiding star is quick
sales and small profits.
9Th. The best reason of all is we have the
vouchers in quantity, quality and variety to
correspond With all we say in the newspa-
pers and will convince the most incredulous
(if there be any such) that it will pay and
nay well to invest money at ths Drug Store
