L02CG. From t-e lirticulturlst. TcICwCrc Crape in Missouri. Norton's Virginia- - by gzo. arsMAK, nriiMAit j? , sio. ' I notice i:i your valuable journal, for November, Cat the war about the origin cf this invaluable grspe, in productive ness, and adaptability to vineyard culture, is not yet ended; and as you seem to wih information about it from all quar ters, I thought what little I could say about it kera, might prove' acceptable to your readers. Two jeara-ego, I ' blaincd a f&w sciens from aIt. Samuel .Iiller, which I grafted ; and one of them, the only one which lived, made a firm, short-jointed growth of over twelve feet that season. It was grafted on a Catawba vine in the open vineyard, in a rather favorable location. Another graft in our neighborhood (Mr. M. Poeschel's vineyard) also made about the same growth. At the same time I procured a plant, a very small one, and planted it ia common soil, without any extra care. The first season it grew but sparingly, but made a fine growth the last very dry summer, ar,d I expect fruit from it next year. It made as good a growth as a Catawba would have done, under the same circumstances. My graft I pruned, in the fall of 1S59, to a cane of twelve eyes, and a spur of one eye, and it produced last summer forty-six fine bunches of fruit,' while Mr. Poeschel's, under similar treatment, produced, as near as I can recollect, forty-eight bunch es, besides making about twenty-five strong layers. The fruit was ripe the first of August, a'.l ripened equally, and was, in my opinion, and the opinion of more than fifty others who tried it here, the best grnpe we ever tasted. It may not be as rank a grower as some varieties, but it makes wood enough, and I am so well convinced of its hardiness, that I have left it, and about fifteen other vines which were grafted last spring, entirely unprotected.1 although I ' would not lose them for a thousand dollars.' - As you seem to wish for information on certain points, I will take them up in succession, and give you the opinion of all here who have watched its habits with anxious eyes, not simply mine, although I heartily concur ia them, but of at least twenty of our. best grape growers here : 1. It mildews as little as any other grape known to us. ' 2. It bears mere than we ever saw any otter vine bear under the same circum stances. . 3. It is one of .the hardiest vines we ever saw. . i 4. It is of robust, healthy growth, quite strong enough. 5. It is the best American grape we ever tasted. G. We think it a native variety, pro bably produced from seed of the Trami ner, from which grape (well known to many of us) it is, however, entirely dis tinct. . : To all this we may add, that we con sider it eminently adapted to wine-making, and are so confident of its success as a wine grape, that all the wood to be had in this neighborhood will be used to graft on old Catawba vines next spring; be sides waicu a good many plants will be planted here. A small quantity of wine made lat fall was so rich, that it could not be weighed by the saccharometer,' which only weighs 100 deg., but was es timated to weigh 115 deg. I consider fr. Thomson, and all who labored to disseminate this grape, as benefactors of the public ; and here, as we are on the subject, and Mr. Vm. R., Prince has made similar assertions against me. in regard to the value of Norton's Virginia, that he has made against others in regard to the Delaware, I will state. that, even if the disseminator of a fruit of small merit is a nurseryman, it does not necessarily follow .that (elj '-inter est must be his leading principle. Is Mr. P. perhaps so invulnerable on that point, that ne should judge of others? But I will be charitable, and only state the facts, as for as 1 think the public are interested, as they ought to , be enlightened as to the true merit of a fruit or vine, and the re liance they can place upon the assertions of tbe disseminator, not with any wish of becoming personal toward Mr. Prince. But as this must necessarily involve some leading facts in the history of Norton's Virginia here, I will sum them up as brief ly as possible. It was introduced in 1818, as near as I can find out, and planted by a few of our vine-growers; and as Mr. Lcngworth was then considered the great authority in grape-culture, they made inquiries about it of him, and his answer was ex tremely unfavorable, as he suited that it would make a harsh, acid, good-for-nothing wine. Still a few cultivated it, as a sort of forlorn hope ; and in a few sea sons it bore fruit, which, although small, seemed very good, bore plenty of it, and and in seasons when Catawba and Isabella failed on account of mildew and rot, this escaped unharmed; and when it was made into wine, it produced an excellent Claret, nearly resembling Port. I be came acquainted with it in 1S-52, and ob served it closely for several years; and in 1S-59, when I was fully satisfied of its merits here, I published the following as sertions in the Valley Farmer, proposing at the same lime to bring in the testimony of more than tweniy of our best grape growers in support of them : 1st. It is as hardy as an oak, having even withstood the terrible winter of '55 and "oG without injry. 21 It adap:s itself to any soil, bearing plentiful crops on the rocky and steep hill sides, bs well a:? in the deep and rich bottoms cf cur rivers and creeks. 3d." It starts late in spring, blossoming about a week later than the Catawba, and ripening its fruit a week sooner than that variety, which will make it very valuable in localities subject to late frosts in spring, and early fronts in autumn. 4th. It is never touched by mildew and rot, and will produce, under fair treat ment, an average crop of from 300 to 500 gallons of wine per acre. 5ih. it makes an excellent dark-colored wine, which, under good treatment, will compare favorably with good Burgundy or Port, (though it has a peculiar strong flavor cf its own,) and which sell very readily at S2 per gallon, cr S12 per doz bottles. 6th. It will stand more hard treatment than almost any other variety, as it bears fair crops, even if utterly neglected, tho' good culture will much improve it. 7th. It is a fine ornamental vine as its foliage will remain fresh and green until touched by the frost ; and a strong grow er, whose hardiness fits it extremely well for the covering of arbors. ' 8th. It is even, when fully ripe, a pleasant eating grape, though it will never be a popular market grape, as the berries are small, but it is very sweet, and many prefer it to the Catawba. Since then, the two seasons following have only served to prove more fully its great value for our State, and I could bring witnesses by the hundred, (and re spectable ones too,) if needed, to prove every iota there said. Yet Mr. Prince asserts, in a letter dated Feb. 3, I860: "Your culture of Norton's Virginia Grape, provided you could replace it with 'the Black Guignard or Carter's Favorite, would be the most false economy, and yet we suppose you will not enlighten the public, because it is not your personal in terest to do so. Such is poor human na- ture. So says Mr. Prince, and all this with out having seen the grape here, or having investigated this subject. .Without even the slightest personal acquaintance with me, he assert; that I am willfully and knowingly misleading the public, because it is my personal interest to do so ; he does so, although the facts, proved here beyond a doubt, stare him in the face ; and hun dreds of respectable men, men whose statements deserve, charitably sneaking, at least as niuch credit as Mr. Prince's are ready to testify to them. These are the simple facts; let your .readers judge whom they will believe. Did I not think it of great importance to clear up all this Saying and doing about the new grapes, and reduce it to some thing real and tangible, I would not have taxed your patience and that of your read ers to such an extent. If you think it will be acceptable, I will make some cotes en about .il'ty varieties of grapes which I fruited this season, and promise before hand that I will not be so prosy about them as I have been this time. The Agents la Rennets. There are two distinct agents in ren net which are active in cudling milk. One is acidity, and the other, for want of a better name, may be termed the infect ing agent or fermenter. The whole ali mentary canal, and other membraneous sacks of the animal body in whose con tents rapid changes occur ; and vegeta ble matter in. which rapid transforma tions of matter occur, a3 the petals of flrwers, are largely endowed with this peculiar principle. It appears to be an agent which nature employs to change certain kinds of matter hastily from one condition to another, to adapt them to the purposes of life. That the coagulation principle h not due to the acid is proved from the fact that ley has been applied to bits of the dry rennet so strong as to corrode the membrane itself, and still the coagulat ing power was apparently unharmed. The presence of an alkali retards the curdling of milk, but the ferment in the rennet is not thereby destroyed. Another point of difference in these two forces in the rennet, may be seen by the influence of heat upon them. Heat hastens the power of acidity even up to the boiling point. Milk will often cur dle by boiling heat, when it would net curdle at a lower te.nperature. An in crease cf heat also increases the action of the ferment for a' time, but a high heat dissipates ii entirely. At one hun dred and seventy degrees it is wholly destroyed, and the liquid wheh it con'ain becomes worthless, having only its acid quality left. There i3 also a difference in their mode of acting. If acid alone is used to cur die milk, a lars;e quantity must be used, and a very marked degree of sourness must be given to the milk, before a suf ficient coagulation can be made; and when it is made it will be imperfect, be cause the added acid acts directly upon the alkalies that hold the cheesy matter in solution, and the perfection of a spee dy coagulation depends upon a mixture so complete, that every attorn of alkali I shall be met at once with a correspond i. -I - . l-t ing one or aciu ; a circumitance wmcn can hardly occur. Acidity'acts also un favorably upon the cream, rendering i?. upon the application of heat, so oly that it escapes in the process of scalding and working the curd. Sourness in milk is almost always unfavorable to working in cream. If it is de;-irrd to make the j cheese rich in butyraeeous matter, acids must be kept as much a3 possible away j from thy milk. Tho other principle, the ferment, acts upen the casein, changing it3 elective af- r.t Cor . a l i ill unity, so tr.at it lets go ct its alkaline solvent upon the presence cf very feelie acidity. No sensible increase cf sour ness, is necessary to curdle milk by its agency. The whey is apparently as sweet as the milk was before it wa3 curdled. It 13 to thi 3 ferment, which constitutes about seven-eighths cf the affective pow er of tbe rennet, that that membrane owes efficacy as a copulating agent, and the dairyman his ability to convert the milk cf his cews speedily, and without injury from soarnsss, into rich and diiic iou3 cheese. English Dairy Cliccse. A correspondent of the Rural New Yorker gives th ? following account of the mode of making cheese which goes by this name, ia f ome of the counties of Western New York. He says it is made mostly by English people who emigrated from Lancashire. We are inclined to think it is not precisely th-u same rrocess as that by which the so called English dairy cheese of Ohio and ether sections is made : "Thi3: cheese is a single meal, or, in other words, the milk is 'run up," cr set directly from the cow, both night and morning, no artificial heat being used in any part of th 2 process. The milk is collored by annetto, rubbed down in milk and added defore the rennet. The prep aration of the rennet, and the quantity used, is the same as in other good dairies The milk stands an hour after the ren net has been put in. The curd is then cut up in the usual way, and wcrked moderately as it begins to settle. The whey is gradually withdrawn, and as it begins to harden so as to hold together, it is put into a cloth and gently washed and pressed till the whey is well cut. It is then broken up again, salted at the rate of an ounce of salt to three pounds cf curd," and put into a hoop or net, and moderate pressure put on. The hoops are 13 to 14 inches by five or six m deep, but the cheese when pressed sh not be ever 4 1-2 inches thick. The manipulations are much as in other dai ries, except that when the cheese is turn ed the first and second timei it is well rubbed with salt, and stands in the press three days. In one dairy, instead cf rub bing on the salt, after standing in the press for twelve hours, the cheese was put into strong brine for twelve hours, taken out, wiped dry and put back into the hoops, and pressed for two day3 lon ger. '. - "No grease is used upon the cheeses, and they are cured in a cool, damp room, if possible. They get a very hard rind, are sent to market in bulk, about the first of November, and handle as safely as so many pieces of plank. They weigh, usually, when taken from the press, about 52 pounds, and when cured, 20 cr 21 lbs. The cheese is expensive to make and to handle, as compared with the larger'and two-meal method. It is, however, rich, ixiild aud easily cured, and much sought after in the cities, among the English population." poetry, the eu! tnur.ir.1 in ar.a th- Held tin?, fcr A A J Icr pa: ".rii'.i united triLuto ry, t 1 1 p.ggra;.u:z. it there are victencs vc:i themselves, more truly h;::T.:l!3 to ccr.' V. r Mil M Deatli Is a Grand Secret. 1. We know not, beforehand, when and how, and by what means we or ethers shall be brought to death; by what road we must go the way whence we shall not return, what disease or what disaster will be the door to put us into the house of ap pointment for all living. 2. We can not describe what death is: how the knot is untied between body and soul, nor how the spirit of man goes up ward, to be we know not what, and live we know not how. With what a dread ful curiosity does the soul launch out into the vast ocean cf eternity, and resign it self to an untried abyss ! - Let us make it sure that the gates cf Heaven shall be open to us on the other side of death, though it is a way we are to go but once. 3. We have no correspondence &t all with separate souls', nor any acquaintance with their state. It is an unknown, un discovered region, to which they are re moved ; we can neither hear from them, nor send to them. While we were here in a world of sense, we speak cf the world of spirits, as blind do of colors, and as we move thither, we shall be amazed to find how much we have been mistaken. Matthew llmry. A EeantSfnl Reflection. Bulwer eloquently says : "I cannot be lieve that earth is man'3 abiding place. It cannot be that our life is cast up by the ocean of eternity, to float a moment upon its waves, an! then sick into nothingness. Else why is it, that the glorious aspira tions, which leap like angels from the temple of our hearts, are forever wan dering about unsatisfied ? Why i3 it that the rainbow :tnd clouds come over us with a beauty that is net cf earth, and then pass cF and leave us to muse upon their laded iovelicess? Why is it that the stars, who held their festival around the midnight throne, are set above the grasp of our limned faculties, forever mocking us with their unapproachable glery ? and finally, why is it that bright forms of hu man beauty are presented to our view, and then tak ;n from us, leaving the thou sand streauu of our ailectiions to flow back io Aipnitj torrems upon our hearts' U'e are born for a higher destiny than that cf earth.
