GRAPE CrLTCRE.-Capt. A. Scout, of this
town, 1.-THE Landing) has perhaps realized
the best results from grape culture this
year OF any person in the State. From his
vineyard OF two acres he has shipped IOJ
TONS OF grapes, which have cleared him
about 500 per ton; that is clear of ,binn;ng
expenses. $500 from two acres is ccrtainiT
u good profit. He has done better than
tins, however, in former years. He has
realized as high as seven tons from one acre
OF his vineyard. lie estimates that 3 cts. per
pound Tor this fruit will make it re-
munerative crop. There are several other
vineyards mere, Mr.. D. J. Cummins hayina
the largest (3 acres) but we have not
learned the result of the shipments.
y. Is. Fennimore, of Middlctown, il is
SAID, has the largest acreage in this fruit.

wealthy (which fact might have in,lucnd

just as the funeral was about to leave the
rcSi"ence OF MIR. Jones Il message came
rom Mount MOriah saving that tho brr;,I

seems, or at least that is the excuse ofTarod
that in the interim between the onno,nco'

dissatisfied lot-holders had appealed to tho
cemetery authorities to stop the funcrol

"A nice point will be ruised when
the Legislature assemblies next year.
The House assumed that the session to
be then held will be n continuation Of
that Just closed, and that the business
left unfinished, can then be taken up
and completed. The Senate held, that
inasmnch as there would be dozen
changes in that body eleven by limita-
ton Of time, nothing but new buSiness
should be taken up. Under the new
Constitution, the Senators to be elect
ed next year will have but single
year to serve, while those to be elected
in 1876 will have four years terms,
that will begin with those of the mem
bers of the House. Then there will
be no difficulty. Now each body can
act it's own pleasure. If the Senate
shall choose to disregard the views Of
the House, it can simply refuse to con-
slider the old bills that may be taken
up and passed by that body, and mere
ly pass upon new measures. The re.
suit will be to bring on iIl-feeling,
probably, but this does not usually
occasion serious injury. 1t simply
operates to prevent partisan legisla.
tion, but does not interfere with mea-
sures that are Of public Importance.
