Resolved, That the Republican voters of Vir-
ginia be assembled in delegated Convention, i'll

also applicable to Proxies and Alternates %
Immediately upon receipt hereof, Chairmen-
or in their absence, the Secretaries-of county
committees will forthwith assemble their COM

representation to the Convention. Where no or
ganization exists Republicans will confer togeth-
er, and upon proper notice call q meeting of tho
people ut convenient time and place, for the
purpose of selecting the number of delegates to
which the county may be entitled. We recon-
mend that the credentials of delegates, in every
instance, be signed by the Chairman and Secre-
tary of the convention or meeting at which they
are selected.
We would urge that prompt and efficient action
be taken to secure full representation from eve
ry portion of the State.

TODAY, we issue the first number oft
Semi Weekly edition of the STATE JOUR-
NAL. AS to its Typography, it speaks for
itself, and will compare favorably with any
other paper, no matter where published.
1t is the same size of our Daily, and will
be furnished to subscribers at the low price
of $3.50 per annum, $1.25 for six months,
and IS cents for three months, with very
liberal terms to clubs Of ten or more.
Until the fall elections are over, we pro-
pose to devote in the Scientifically espe-
cial attention to the progress Of the party
in the State. It's columns will contain mat
ter Of interest from almost every county in
the State, having special reference to the
claims Of Republican candidates.
We will not neglect the market reports,
general and State news, each of which will
command the same attention as is devoted
to them in our other issues.
We are much encouraged by our friends
having already sent us, number of SUBJ
scribers, and as our paper is devoted to the
cause of the Republican party, we hope
each individual member will assist us to
circulate it largely throughout the State.

THE COST AND PROFIT OF GRAPE
CULTURE.-Hea1fh and Home, in late
issue; gves an account of the cost of grow
ing and selling the production of grapes
from ? 73-100 acres Of vineyard. The cul-
tivator puts down the cost of cultivation
from the time of gathering the grapes the
previous autumn to the commencement of
pressing them this year, at $233 81. This
includes cultivating, hoeing and pruning,
and 800 pounds of ammoniated superphos-
phate of lime applied to part of the vine
yard. The cost of picking, packing and
marketing, including freight and commits
sions, and wear and tear of crates, he gives
at s2s7 IS, making total cost for the year
$4Gl 30. His crop of grapes was IA 800
pounds, for which he received 81 ,096 76, so
that he received $685. 81 profits.
In this he does not make any charge for
rent of land nor taxes, nor for taking the
grapes from the vineyard to the railway
station. His vineyard contained 1900 vines
in bearing and 200 younger vines. They
are mostly Concords, a few, about one
tenth, Delawares, and some Hartford Pro-
life, Diana, etc. His first Delawares sold
at zoe. per pound his first Concords at
10c. T; his Dclawares falling to &c.,; and
his Concords to &c. before the close of the
season. He had about $4,000 pounds of
Delawares, and about $4,000 pounds of
Concords, the remainder being divided by
some eight or nine other sorts. By this
time it would seem that it cost him 3-15
cents to grow and market pound of
grapes that the average gross receipts
were about ~ cents per pound, and the
net proceeds about a cents per pound or
1882 per acre.
These grapes were marketed in the city
Of New York.
