The Cuban Priyateer Pioneer.

Captain W. Guptill, of the American brig Thomas Owen, of Portland, re- ports that on the 10th of June, while in latitude 27 20 and longitude 76 30, or about fifty miles northeast of Abace, he was spoken by the Pioneer, fore and aft schooner, heavily canvased, of about two hundred tons, an American revenue cutter built, with an armament apparent ly of four guns, two sixty-four and two thirty-two pounders. and flying the Cuban flag. Her crew consisted of forty men and six officers, the latter we'll dressed in uniform resembling that of the American Navy. The Pioneer came quite close to the Thomas Owen, and held quite aparley-requesting to be reported as a Cuban vesssel-of-war on cruise, and asking for late newspapers. Cap tain Guptill asked where they hailed from the reply was |" East end of Cuba;" also if they had yet made any prizes, but was replied to, "Not yet. " Such an encounter was entirely novel and curious one to Captain Guptill, and with true Yankee inquisitiveness he wanted further information, and asked if they had any particular cruising ground. "None," was the answer, "but was going to the coast of Europe after while."
 The Pioneer carried three boats, one on each quarter and one at the stern. Captain Guptill judges the officers to be Americans, all except two, and very fine looking and gentlemanly in bearing The crew seemed to be motley assem- blaze, representing all nations, dressed in common sailor garb. Her bulwarks were made to drop down so as to leave ample room to work all the guns. Everything appeared to be new and ot peculiar workmanship, the work not be. ing neat nor so we'll finished as such work generally is by experts. Ths sails were of American cut and make. The Pioneer was steering in westerly direction, but declined to state where bound, and parted company. The Thomas Owen, about two hours after ward, came up to vessel burning to the hull, apparently foreign, ten feet of hel foremast only standing, the chains and anchors gone, and with the appearanc ce of having been boarded.

An Outside Convention.

While the regular Democratic Conven- tion was being held In Baltimore, an anti Greeley one was also in session. The following resolutions were presented by M. M. Pomeroy, and unanimously adopted:
 Whereas, The objects of this assem- blaze may be misconstrued or mispre- sented, it is necessary to declare what our purposes are :;
 Resolued, That'we have no intention to produce schism in the Democratic organizations nor any desire to arrogate the right to dictate any line of policy to the Convention called by the regular authority of the party.
 Resolued, That we as Democrats pre- fer principles to men :; patriotism and love of country to policy and love oi gain and the preservation of the Demo cratic party and organization to the mere elevation of any man to power.
 Resoloed, That we pledge our earnest and active support to the nominees o1 the Baltimore Convention now in session at the Opera House in this city, provided those nominees be Democrats on a Democratic platform.
 Resolred, That if any contingency arises by which the organization is dis. banded and it's principles abandoned, we do assert the right to call upon all those who think with us, to cooperate in future movement to maintain the principles and to reorganize the Jeffer. sonian Democracy of the United States.
 After the nomination of Greeley and Brown by the Democratic Convention, this body met again and adopted an ad. dress to the Democratic party, calling 6 Convention at Louisville, Ky, for Sep. tember 3, for the nomination of 6 straight-out Democratic ticket.

A California Mountain Vineyard.

A correspondent writes as follows: About mile and half south of Shasta City is . vineyard called the Buckeye ranch, owned by Messrs. Wiser & Terry, a German and an American, 8 happy combination of energy and patience. They have built their fortunes absolutely from the ground up, having begun here in 1857 by chopping of the manzanita and oak and hauling it to town for fire wood, bringing back manure in return. In 1863 they made their first wine. Last year they manufactured about 5000 gallons, comprising port, angelica, white wine and red wine, besides about 500 gallons of brandy. They have now on hand 5000 gallons in their fine vaults. On about six acres of red manzanite land, with a subsoil of rotten granite such land as most Americans would al- most feel themselves insulted to have offered them as . gift-they produced last year between 40OO and 5000 gallons, mostly from Mission grapes, and com. pleted the above mentioned product from forty tons of grapes which they bought. In this rotten granite under, meath their dwelling-house, they have hewn out vaults of 20, ,000 gallons capacity one of which runs through the hill, and so has an abundant ventilation, while the other is supplied by draft of air by the well used by the family, which passes down at one side of it. The proprietors assert that wine vaults, un- like those of Hockheim, need plenty o1 lvent1lation. Their white wine is very good; their port, while lacking the body and sweetness of Solono port, has 6 clear keen quality, and flavor which reminds one somewhat of the wild cherry
 but which is, nevertheless, quite pleas
 ant. They also put up 200 pounds ot Malaga rasins last year as an experiment, and they are of very good quality. But the most singular product of this ele- vated vineyard was that of its fig trees. From seven trees which I saw anc counted, there were produced, last year 2G0 pounds of dried figs and 25 gallons of fig brandy. This brandy was sold Q
 $5 gallon, and the dried figs at twent, cents pound, so that the entire pro
 duction of the seven trees was $162, ol
 $26 tree. This did not include thu green figs sold to the neighbors fo
 sauce. The first crop, falling about thu fourth of July, was of little service to them; but the second crop they dried
 or rather the figs dried themselves, fo
 they paid no attention to them whatever
 except to go and gather them off tn
 ground after they were done with tn
 press of work in the vineyard, and bo
 them up. Without any further prepa ration they were ready for the market and sold well.

The French Balloons.

Only five of the balloons sent out from Paris during the siege were actually taken by the Germans, although, as may be supposed, many had very narrow escapes, sixteen in all falling within the enemy's lines. Two of these there was no chance of saving, for they went right over the hostile territory; one of these unfortunate conveyances descended in Prussia and the other in Bavaria, Several accidents happened to the auro- | nauts 1n their descent, but if we except | two instances of balloons going out to sea, only one of these ended fatally. Of the sixty-four balloons dispatched
 ffty-seven reached a safe destination. carrying 150 navigators ond passengers. The duration of the voyage was on an average, but three hours at the com. mencement of the service in September, 1870, but as the German troops ap- preached nearer and surrounded the capital more effectually, it was deemed desirable to make longer journey, and in January the average voyage was be. tween six and seven hours. At this period, too, it was found necessary tc dispatch the balloons during the night
 so that they might get falr start and be we'll out of rife shot when passing ovel Versailles and the outposts of the Ger man army. The most memorable voyage was that made on the 21st November when the North Sea was traversed by { balloon which reached Christiania, aftel Q voyage of some fourteen hours. The distance travelled was certainly not less than 1000 miles and at the rate O. seventy miles an hour-beyond .doub the fastest rate of locomotion on record The balloons themselves were con structed of oiled silk and mostly con tained some 2,0O0 cubic metres of gas They were designed and manufactured under the superintendence of M. God ard, whose fame as an aeronaut was vel established before the siege. A numbe
 of volunteers from the French navy chosen for their peculiar fitness for the service, were trained to navigate the bal looms, Most of the balloons carried passengers, and generally several hun dred-weight of dispatches, together witl basket of pigeons to be employed 8 return messengers.-Paris Paper.

The Baltimore Convention.

MT. Belmont, chairman of the Demo- cratic Central Committee, in calling the Baltimore Convention to order, said that he had done to the best of his ability for the party and called Randolph of Va., to the chair. The various committees were appointed. It was resolved that the rules adopted by the. last National Democratic Convention be the rules for the government of this Convention until otherwise ordered.
 Ex-Senator Doolittle of Wisconsin, was appointed permanent chairman and spoke at some length.
 Among the resolutions sent up to the chair and referred to the Committee on Resolutions were the following
 ReSolved, That believing the safety and welfare of the country demand at this time the united action of all patriotic citizens, however widely they may have differed or may now differ in political opinion, to effect change in the admin istration of the general Government and believing also that in the crisis of public affairs the Democratic party can best promote the true interests of the country by not presenting candidates from its own ranks fora President and Vice-President, and by cordially uniting in the support of the candidates present. ed by the Liberal Republicans through l their Convention at Cincinnati, there. fore, we do hereby nominate Horace Greeley, of New York, for President o | the United States, and B. Gratz Brown of Missouri, for Vice-President of the United States.
 Rcsolued, That we recognize and accept the doctrine of the civil equality of al men without regard to color or past con dition as fixed and established princi pie which, as party, we will not at | tempt to change; and that we will il good faith support, sustain, and defend the fourteenth and fifteenth amendment law of the land.
 Resoloed, That accepting the Constitu tion as it is, with the fourteenth amend ment declaring all persons born or nat uralzed in the United States subject t. the jurisdiction thereof citizens, and con curing in the opinion of Judge Tane, that citizen is one who has entir equality of privileges, civil and political we are logically compelled to admit tha women, being citizens, are possessed o the right to vote, and are entitled to na tional protection in the exercise thereof
 Democrats believing that officer should be encouraged to register tn names and receive the votes of wome citizens equally with men, leaving tn question of the legality of such votes t the decision of the Legislatures of tn several States, respectfully ask the ador tion of the following resolution by tn National Democratic Convention:
 Resoloed, That the Democratic party true to its name and original purpose c recognizing the sovereignty of the ind vidual, does now cordially invite tn sympathy, labor, and vote of all citizen of the United States irrespective of sex color, or condition, and pledges itself t the protection of women citizens at tn
 ballot-box equally with men.
