THE Act referred to provides
against the discontinuance Of sta
tions that have been established five
years, except by permission of coun-
ty court, and that accommodations
at such points shall not be substan-
italy diminished. Whether the
accommodations at SO. Newbury
and Ryegate have been so dimin-
ished since the passage OF the Act,
we cannot say. But we are aware
that scarcely any accommodations
are afforded at the former place.

short time since, and We found Il
small den in one corner, looking

ed to find such a place on any other
road than the Passumpslc. The
principle on which the road is man
aged seems to be to eXtort as much
money as possible from those who
are obliged to patronize the road
and afford the people no accom-
modations that can possibly be with
held.-ED.

The GRAPE AT THE SOUTH.-Since the ter
mination Of the war, efforts for introducing the
culture of the grape on an extensive scale in
Upper Louisians. have been made. These ef.
forts have been attended with the most success
full results. and the planters Of that section ar
very sanguine Of soon being able to turn out
large quantities Of wine. Experienced grape
growers have long been of the opinion that both
Louisiana and Alabama could by reason of their
soil and climate, become formidable rivals TO
European wine producing countries.

Practical Horticulture. says: "Although these
are not generally TO be found in the greenhouse
or flower garden, yet we have occasionally suff-
fercd BY them, and have found the simplest way
to destroy them to be to lay fresh bones around
their haunts. They will leave everything else
to attack these. When thus accumulated, they
can easily be destroyed by dipping in hot water.
