GRAPE GROWING IN FRANCE.

A foreign journal states that there
are 100000 vineyard proprietors in
France which would almost give a
majority of land cultivators and that
the trade in grapes amounts to several
million francs, not including those used
for wine. In the two little townships
Of Thomery and Champagne, the
famous Chasselas de Fontainbleau is
largely grown, and the vineyards tn ere
produce about two million pounds. A
portion is exported to England, Aus.
tria, and even to Russia.

a gentleman SO, would say to the hay-seed ex-
Founders Of constitutional law Sink the donna
poeue. and try to be statesmen" You certainly do
not believe in the rIdiculous doctrine you think
yourselves compelled to advocate in order to retain
your seats in Congress. Have the boldness to ex-
press your real convictions. Tell your constituents
that the true policy Of the country is to encourage
BY every possible means, the building OF more
railways, rather than to cripple those al
ready in existence; and that the roads
must be managed by those who own them,
like any other business, restricted alone by what
ever provisions may be in their charters untouched
by Congressional interference Tell them That H. by
reason of low prices, wheat and corn VIII not pear
transportation great distance, TO turn their atten
ton to the raising of cattle and hogs ana the
growth Of WOOL that will bear it. Encourage the
building of manufacturing villages so that mar
ket may be created for the sale of those farm pro-
ductions that will not bear transportation to a
distant market. Open your coal mines so ~ 10
utilize the iron ore that abounds in richer pro-
fusion than in any other country on the
globe Educate your children and teach them that
they can only become good, prosperous, and happy
citizens through habits Of temperance, economy, and
industry. FrOwn down the whining demagogues
who may attempt to excite the prejudices OF one
portion Of the people against nores, and
can only be prosperous when in perfect harmony
with each other. Do these things aud you, Will re.
ceive the plaudits of all intelligent men and VIII not
fail to realize the satisfaction resulting from con-
scientious discharge of duty to your country.
During the Rebellion the omnipotent law OF ne
cessity-self preservation compelled tho enact
ment of laws not warranted in times of peace; 80
that now many seem to think that the will OF Con
eress like that of the British Parliament. is the
Constitution. We should hasten to live again
within the well established limits OF our great char
ter where only can be found security against en-
croachments that must end in q centralized Gov.
ernment destructive alike to the reserved rights OF
the States and to the liberties of the people
