Il QUAKER MEETING IN THE oLDES TINE.
The following is an extract from John o..
WHITTIER new poem, 8" The Pennsylvania
Pilgrim" to be published in Boston TINS
month. The scene is laid two hundred wears
AFRO. before the followers Of William Penn had
built meeting honses
There. through the gathered stiffness multi
piled
And made intense by sympathy, outside .r
The sparrows sang, and the gold robin cried.
A swing upon his elm. A faint perfume
Breathed through the open windows OF the
room sE EA
From locu,t rees, heavy with clustered bloom.
Thither, perchance, sore-tried professors
came,
Whose fervor JEDI nor pillory could tame
Proud Of the cropped ears meant to be their
shame.
Men who had eaten slayery's bitter bread
In INDIAN isles pale women who had bed
Under the hangman's lash, and braYcly said
God's message through their iron prison bars !;
And gray old solder converts soaliou WIN
scars - ..
From every stricken field Of England's ware.
Lowlv before the Unseen Presence kneIt
Each waiting heart, till haply some one felt
on his moved dps the seal of silence melt;
Or, without spoken words, low breathing stole
Of dIvincr life from soul to soul,
Baptizing IN one tender thought the whole.
Unvexed the sweet air seemed. without a
wound
The ear Of silence heard, and every sound
It. place in Natures fine accordance found.
And solemn meeting summer sky and wood,
Old kindly faces, youth aud maldenhood,
Seemed, like Gods new creation, very good

The Vintage of France.

The correspondent of the Wine Trade
Review of London, writing from Bor-
deaux on the 10th ult., states: 1.-The
magnificent weather we have enjoyed
of late, and which has continued al
most without any interruption all the
month, has done much to allay the fears
entertained some months ago for the
result of the approaching vintage.
There can be no doubt that in most of
the wine-p producing districts of this de-
partment the prospects are compare
lively favorable; but though there is
good reason to hope that the quality
will be excellent. and, indeed, in some
parts even first rate, it is to be feared
that the crop will, on the whole, be
lamentably deficient; for no amount of
sunshine and fine weather can replace
the grapes annimlated by the couture,
under which the vineyards have suffer-
ed severely.
$50 this must be added the ravages
committed by the phyloxera and the
insect locally known as the ecrivain
the oidium has also made its appear
ance this year with more vigor than
usual, though this can scarcely be con-
sldered as an element for alarm, since
it can easily be kept in bounds by the
application of sulphur In the Medoc
the crop will be but small, the general
estimate being that 1t will not exceed
one-half of that of last year; and the
oidium appears to have returned with
greater force than in any other district
of thedepartment In other respects
the vineyards are looking we'll and Wig

Brandy Production in France.

Some useful information respecting
last years French brandy is furnished
in Consul Vereker's report on the trade
and commerce of the ports of Roche
tort and Tonnay Charente for the year
1871, just published Speaking of the
prospects of the brandy trade, Mr..
Vereker observes that the grapes IN
1871 were slow in development in con-
sequence of long drought; but under
the effect Of rain, i'll August and Sep
TENDER, they rapidly arrived at MATURE
ty and rendered necessary vintage
earlier than usual, as they commenced
to rot on the vines the weather was,
however, unfavorable for the vintage,
and on its produce being collected it
was found that the spoiled grapes were
numerous; and, though the whole pro-
duce slightly exceeded the average of
past years the grape juice was deficient
in alcoholic force, result, no doubt,
due to their having ripened too
rapidly under the influence of
the rains and heat Under these cir
cumstances larger amount of wine is
required from which to distill a given
quantity of brandy, so that it is not

will reach a full average, and this may
affect expectation. already unfavorably
influenced by the large stocks in Eng
land, and the circumstance that it may
be desired to, replenish the stores in
France, the reserves having been much
reduced by the large shipments in the
past three years. The quality of bran
dy in any one year depends materially
upon the proportion it bears to the
wine from which it is distilled; the
lesser that proportion the better i'll
general may be considered the brandy
in the past year it is estimated that on
an average nine parts of wine will be
necessary to make one of brandy; IN
specially good years the proportion is
much less, becoming as low as five or
six parts.

New Mode of Keeping CT Ter Sweet.

A correspondent of the New York
World, in whom they have confidence.
writes to them upon the subject of keen.
the use of bl .sulphate of lime as means
preventing the fermentation OF cider.
and slys:
"This material is now used in large
quantities by brewers, and also by the sug
ar manufacturers. Cane juice properly
treated with it may be kept for months
without material injury, and may then be
boiled with G certainty of producing ex-
cellant sugar At the same time we
took the precaution to ask large dealer
in the bl.sul pilates and chemicals general
ly, and were informed that the cider man.
ufacturers would not use it. lie says the
process they use is to let the cider ferment
once, so as to clear; then rack off, and in.
to each c,lsk or barrel they throw pi.ce
of raw beef. BY this system the cider is
not only kept sweet, but some think is i'm.
proved. We know nothing of its value,
except that it is very generally used by
large cider makers who have high rep
ut.tlsn for the excellence of their product.
Viewed in chemical light, we should
say that it was far preferable to the BIZ
sulphate mode as the albumen of the
meat has a tendency to soften the acidity
and produce mellowness, while there are
circumstances under which the lime might
unite with the acetic acid and produce
acetate of lime, which, if not positively in
urious, would not at all add TO the flavor
of the cider.
Bi.sulphate of lime is a very useful
compound, and very little known; its
somewhat offensive smell has prevented it's
introduction for various uses to which it is
adapted. 1t is very superior disinfect-
ant, and meats dipped into it may be kept
for great lengths of time without any de-
composition. 1t has no superior as a pre-
ventivs of acNtifca ton, and is one OF the
best substances which can be found to pre-
vent the decay of timber. 1t is in constant
use in Louisiana IN sugar manufacture,
and as now made is not subject to some
objections urged in years past; but there
are parts OF the process Of refining sugar
where it cannot be used, as sucrate of lime
is likely to be formed, just as we have in
dicated that the acetate may be formed in
tho cider.

Making Use of Candidates for ONCE.

A Georgia paper tells good story OF
one of the candidates for County Sher-
if in that State. The candidate, a
physician, lately stopped to talk with
a man, who with his two daughters
was pulling fodder, and the doctor, IN
order to keep alongside of him, com.
menced pulling the fodder in the
row he was walking in. When he
cot fairly settled down to il, the farmer
SAYS: Excuse me II minute while !
step over to the house-yon
just knock along with the girls
here and be left. At this the
girls just made the fodder fly, going
down the rows IN double-auick time.
The doctor manfully wentin, hand over
hand, Smoked his coat and did his
level best. He painted, he sweated
and yet he showed along under the
brolling sun while the farmer was IN
his piazza with his pipe lit, taking It
cool, and laughing IN has sleeves. In
about an hour he went ont to the field
and released the doctor. They say the
doctor never limited ."Sherltf to him,

North Carolina ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OF


UIefElEnOns
The long contest in the North Carolina
Legislature was terminated yesterday by
the election Of Judge MerTimOn to the Uni
ted States Senate by vote Of 81 to 30 for
Vance. Judge Merrimon received all the
Republican votes.
He was the Liberal candidate for Gov
ernor in August last, running against Tod
r. Caldwell, Republican, who was re-
elected by a small majority. Judge Merri-
mon is lawyer, about forty years Of age,
in the prime Of both his physical and mon
tai manhood, and tall and commanding il
appearance.
The Republicans Of North Carolina have
made wise choice in casting their votes
for Judge Merrimon in preference to Mr..
Vance, who is the embodiment Of Southern
hostility to the national administration.
The result Of the struggle in North Caro-
lima for the senatorship shows the changes
and uncertainties Of politics, since Judge
Merrimon is elected to the responsible, ig-
nitied and honorable position Of member
of the United States Senate by the very
party by whom he was defeated four
months ago in his aspirations for the State
executive chair
