SrArsToN, May le.-The petition OF the
cyergy aud laiy OF the territory lying south o.
James river for new diocese was uoder aeoase
when this report closed yesterday.
c. NJ. Blackford urged it for the petitioners
~ the ground that the territory OF the present
,,;ocese was too large to admit Of episcopal Vsl'
,at;oo and though the present bishop did all
that bishop could do 10 this direction 1t was
simply physically impossible, and ccntended
;hat the majority OF the COMMITMENTS 10 tna1
district favored the division.
Judge Snefsy replied to Ar. blseSfotd' con-
tending that there was no evidence here that
,be majority of ,he people desired 1t, aSd went
N ct length to combat the idea that episcopal
visitation was vitality necessary there.
Dr.. Clark, Col. Lamb. RayecscrOi' Jpues
nd Col. Log gan opposed the division OF me
iiocese. Judge Boiling add Rev. Mr.. Newton
favored dlvlslon. ,,,
Before putting the main Ques,loG Bishop

that It began 10 the cities Of the South,Sidee,
Shicn never had occasion to complain OF lack
gf 7isitasion. He claimed that on account OF
mis- episcopal position, and solely Oh account
that he knew more of the feelings OF the South
Side than others did, and he felt assured that
the people there did not desire division.

HD VINE CULTURE AND WINE MAKING-
Mr.. Alfred Speer, Of Passsic, N. j., so long
and fsrorsbly known as the wine man o. New
Jersey, expects larger yield Of grapes this
year than usual; and has reduced the. price Of
the reach Of the poorer families who need pure
and rich wine for medicinal purposes. Mr..
Speer's mode of fermentng and keeping
his wine differs from tho usual methods This
is the reason why it is 80 much superior in quail
ity; but it requires four years management and
changing OF temperature in order TO make such
perfect inc wine as this is: the knowledge of
changing TO various temperatures at different
times and at the right time, Is where he has the
advantage of eating so rich wine without the
use os liquor. Large Quantities OF Speers Port
Grape Vino havo been ordered to South Amer
lea snd even 10 London and Paris by Europ.
cans. Physicians recommend it as superior 10
most of the European wine. 1t is dealt in
largely by druggists. -[Daily Express. St
