correspondent of the N. Y. Herald says:
MIR. L.mar's recent speech in condemna-

crime in a democrat and Southern mao to
cond' mn such wrongs which these republicans
evidently regard as their stock 10 trade The
republican leaders could afford to make open
confession bat the Southern policy which they
have tolerated has been blundrriug aud wrong

ccs.ary. Such confession by Mr.. Garfield,
accompanied with promise of such change
10 the Southern policy as Governor Hayes Is
kncwo to favor and as he forcshadows in his
letter. would have strengthened the party.

Strange as it may appear bat few
grape-vines are cultivated in this city,
notwithstanding the fact that this
climate is particularly adapted to the
culture of grapes. Scarcely any plant
surpasses the vine as regards the beauty
OF its leaves and fruit. As a covering
for bare walls and for agording shelter
and shade, it is a climber Of the first
rank. To sit under ones " vine has
in all ages been considered the acme of
rural happiness-an emblem of peace, a
symbol of plenty, and a picture Of con-
tentment. That pleasure, though per-
haps not in all its fullness, may become
TIL leritsge Of thousands throughout
the United States. Our elimate-vari-
able as it is for a large portion of the
Uaion-is eminently suited to the cul'
ture of the vine; and in some Of the
States the fruit attains a degree of per
lection, for both eating and wine making,
scarcely surpassed in the Old World. AS
food, ripe grapes are universally es
teemed-no one ever tires Of them, and
people a live and work on grapes and
bread quite as well as they can on
meat aud bread. Indeed, the whole.
someness Of this kind Of diet is beyond
question. In parts of France, Spain
and Italy the peasau,ry for a season.
annually almost wholly subsist on
grapes and bread, and those who SO live
are noted for their freedom from con
sumption and scrofula-to such a degree
as to have given rise to the grape
cures" And there is scarcely a plan
so easy Of cultivation, or more ornamen
tai as an arbor for the back yard Of tn
} city lot, or for cooling the gable of tn
country cottage. In this the vine has it
healthtul value for those who do not lik
: grapes, if, indeed, there are any sue
5 persons. And for those who decline t
: eat grapes, or can thus cultivate NOR
than they want for home consumption
4 there is always a ready market in town t
realize on space scarcely avsible f
I other purpoSes-good for rent.

Our scientific reporter this morning

spected the Centennial Jail patented and
built by these gentlemen. One cell is
shown in the model and it is perfect in
details, it being burglar proof both from
within and without. All kinds of tools
can be given with impunity to the pris'
oner confined within, but the moment he
drills a hole in the iron wall sand com
mences to rush out into the cell, the
sand being between the double walls
When the sand rushes into the cell an
alarm is sounded and the efforts of the
prisoner to escape are at once detected
A sufficient amount of sand surround
each cell to fill the cell unless the pris
oner plugs or stops up the hole he haI
made in the wall. This is a most ingen
ious contrivance, but the model is full o
woderful inventions that must be seen il

"A MUASDE1S DlSCLOSED IN "A DREAM
From the Springfield Republican,
Isaac Randolph, the negro who
murdered his wife at New Haven in
the spring of 1856, gives notice that he
will apply to the next Legislature for
a release from State prison. to which
he was sentenced for life. The mur-
der created great sensation and the
story of it is very interesting. He
killed the woman with a washboard
during quarrel,and probably did not
intend to strike fatal blow. After
the murder, Randolph cut the body up
and buried it in his garden, planting
corn and beans over the spot. Sever
al days after, Robert Coe, the father
of the missing woman, related with
great imprcssiveness, the particulars
of dream which he had on three sue
cessive nights. He said that Mary
Ann came to him crawling on her
hands, and that when he asked her
why she did not walk, she replied that
she could not, for her legs had been
cut of. Each night she appeared to
him ON the borders of small brock
which ran at the foot of the garden.
At last the garden was examined, and
the body was found.
