For the best two horse Turning Plow, to No.

For the best Subsoil Plow to No. 2, the Mon

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON WINES
AND CORD1AIS.

AND CORD1ALS.
The Committee on Wines and Cordials have
tested the numerous specimens on exhibition,
and find it exceedingly difficult to determine,
amongst large variety superior of their kind,
which are indeed best. But, as it is their duty
to decide, they proceed with the best judgment
the tasting" operation has left to report:
That Nc. 20 is the best Scuppernong Wine
and No. rs the second best. f'f-if
Best Muscadine Wine, No. IA; second best,
Best Blackberry Wine, No. /; second best
Best Grape Wine, No. 1s.. =
Best Peach Brandy, No. q.
There were various specimens of Cherry
Wines and Cordials exhibited, which were
very fine, and q bottle of Wine made from the
common old-feld Plum, which was regarded as
fully equal in flavor to any wine exhibited. No
premiums were offered for these, and they are
mentioned to encourage the producers and 9TH
ers to perseyere in IN effort to supply the coun-
try with good light wines as beverage, to the
exclusion of alcoholic drinks.
Respectfully submitted.
