Concluded. FERMENTATION. Mr. Pasteur affirms that he has ex posed casks of wine thus heated, in the open air or terrace, with northern exposure, from April to December, without any injury resulting; Wine in casks may be heated by in troducing a tin pipe through the bung hole, which snail descend in coils nearlyto the bottom and return in a straight line and through the pipe imparting steam. If, after thus bein g once heated, there is such an exposure to air, as by drawing oil and bottleing, as to admit a fresh introduction of "parasites," the disease thus intro- duced may be easily cured dy heating a second time. Mr. Pasteur claims also to have dis covered and proved that wine call be advanced in ripening and improved by "aeration" conducted by a slow and gentle manner. This is a bold assertion ; but such confidence is felt in the value of suggestions comin from him, that both of his methods' cutting, as they will, a tangle Qf old theories, will have a fair, trial by his countrymen, and that without delay. Your committee would say, in con clusion, that from what comparison we have been able to make between the better samples of American wines now on exhibition at the'Taris Expo sition," with foreign wine of a similar character, as well as from the experi ence cf many - European wine-taaters, we have formed a higher estimate of our own ability to broduce good wines than we had heretofore, and from our investigations in vine culture we are now more confident than ever that America can and will be a great wine- making country. Allthatis necessary for us to rival tne choicest products of other parts of the world will ere long come with practice and experience. We have already several excellent va rieties of the grape born on American soil, and suited to it a soil extensive and varied enough for every range of Quantity and quality. Who would iscover a patch of ground capable of yielding a "Johannebberger," a"io kay," or a "Margaux," need only make diligent and careful search, and somewhat between the Lakes and the Gulf and the two oceans that circum scribe our vineyard territory, will be sure to find it. SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT. The committee, since making their rpnort on the third branch of the sub ject given them in charge, have visited the principal vine districts oi ow nor land and Germany, and deem some of the observations there made worth be ing embodied in the supplemental report now submitted. The vineyards to which attention was more especially civen were those of the borders of Lake Geneva those of Pflax or Rhenish Bavaria, and of the banks of the Rhine, the Neckar, and the Main. With regard to the quality of the soil, we have the same remark to make here as was made in the former report, viz., that the vines yielding the best wine where found to be grow ing on the poorest soil. Geologically, the soil throughout all the above dis tricts is very much the same, viz., basalt and sandstone, both formations usually seen in close proximity, the the basalt uppermost and resting on the other. The only exceptions were a few patches of limestone and slate. The basalt soil is esteemed richer than the sandstone, and is often hauld on to the other to enrich it. For instan ce, the vine-dresser of Durkheim ac tually manured their thin, poor, gravelly land with tens of thousands of yards of earth, brought from the neighboring town of Deidesherm, and yet the Durkheim wine is quite supe rior to that of their neighbors. All this was quite different from anything we noticed in France; there, calcare ous rocks seem to underlie everywhere nor could we learn of any wine of high repute in France that derive its quality from sandstone or basalt. The vine husbandry af the Swiss and Germans isof the first order. Nowhere do you see in their vineyards the straggling appearance so common in these of France (the effect of frequent laying) ; but the lines were always beautifully true and,even. Although the intervals or rows were wide enough for the plow to pass, nearly all the cultivation was done by hand, and done most thoroughly too. In France as in America, they stir the ground two or three times during the season. In theRhinogan it is done four times; but Forst DeiJesheim and Durkheim they do it as often as every two or three weeks from the beginning to the end of the season. It is in the above neighborhood that basaltic earth is applied as a manure, as is also clay, to make the ground more retentive of manure ; and this they do to such an extent that old vine fields are seen which have been raised visibly above the level of the others adjoining them. The expenditure of labor in a year on an acre of those fields amounts to about one hundred and forty days' work. In the Pflaz, it is usual to train upon horizontal laths or lines of wire running fifteen inches above the ground, very much as is done in Me doc, only that where wire i3 used, a second line is streached above the other. Mr. Guyot, to whose book we have already referred, argues strongly in favor of everywhere adopting the method of training the fruit-bearing cane horizontal with the ground and very close to it. AN e ought, however, to note here, that the fields where this mode was more particularly noticed, or connected with good results, were in gravelly 'deposits of nearly level surface. Manure is freely used In German y much more so than in France and is prepared and applied with much care and system. Cow manure, large ly composted with straw, is the only kind thought ht to manure vines. They sprinkle the heaps almost daily, to keep them moist and allow the mass to rot, at least twelve months before being used. It is applied every three years. As to quality, it is certain that some sous, like the poor and unreten tivc gravel beds of the Pflaz, should receive .more than those of the neigh boring slopes, and that the calcarous earths of France need less than the sandstone and the basaltic earths of the Rhine valley. Guyot, arguing strongly in favor of manure, recommends the t rench cul tivator to put on at intervals of three years a quantity of manure that will be equivalent in weight to that of the fruit he has taken off at vintage; while Mr. lierzmanskv, the steward at Joh annesberg, who tills some fifty acres of vines, keeps about forty very large cows in his stables. Bui will not ma nuring hurl the qualify of the tnne f In our former report we say that this is an open question as yet, and so it is in France, and Mr. Guyot treats it as such arguing upon it. Of course no one will doubt that were a vine yard to be treated in this respect, as we treat the soil of a grapery, very poor wine would be produced, and 7 1 , as i : 1 1 . a ine oniy question is, vni u muueiuie quantity do harm? '1 his is precisely the question the committee put to Mr. Ilerzmansky, the intelligent and tho roughly experienced director at John- nesburge, where the best wine in the As we apply in on this it does not im pair the quality of the wine in any degree ; on the contrary, it improves the flavor." Then he led the way to his well-ordered cow stables, and poin tinar to the compost heaps remarked 44 There is the beginning of Johannes- burge." t "Now johannesberger is the most delicate of wine, as it is indeed super lative in" pvprv rpsnpet. Ilv the Icind invitation of the Princess Metternich the committee were allowed to taste specimens of the best the castle cellar contained, including some that was 21 years old in the cask, and some from a cask that was. par excellence, called the14 bride or the cellar," and the opinion formed was that the quality or Johannesberger is such that it can not be described, and can be commu nicated onlv to the orerans of taste: nor can it be understood or even im agined, except by those who are so highly favored as to have a taste of it. But this marvelous wine is but the crowning product of the famous dis trict of the Rhinegan, jot that portion of the valley lying just north ofMay- Rnm vm Rfno th vpncvnrds of FT. Buhl, of Deldesheim, produced wine on the natural soil of a very Inferior quality, selling at fifty centimes the litre, at a very great ex pense. Tue whole vineyard was covered to the depth of three feet by volcanic or basaltic earth brought from a distance of Beveral miles. The experiment at the time was t Viriir-1T t r 1 a vorv hovonmiia fine rn tha enchanted value of the wines after the addi tion proved that the owner was wiser than his neighbors. t The vineyard of F. T. Buhl, alluded to in a previous note, is fertilized by a compost made of woolslipt stable manure' and earth. This is applied in the sprinc In trenches dui to me acpiii or aixiut ten Inches ana covered with earth: the application is made In this manner to every alternate row of the vine yard. The following year the 6ame process is pone throueh with in the remainins rows by theTemovM.1 of thp noil nrevlnnnW stai- h uu me treatment or manure as just ae-H tailed; this vineyard now nroduees wine of a ry superior quality of a delicious bouquet, rich In sacc harine matter and alcohol, and iwbidi m tnose excellences that we prize In a flrsl-f !.1KH a in, nn.l 1 nrar i V selling at twelve francs the litre. enci, a strip less than ten miles in length whose fruityields ajuice which surpasses all others of the world, com bining richness with flavor and deli cacy with strength. The soil of the RhineTn seems to be red sandstone mostly if not wholly. Johannesberi; hill reminds one strongly of the soil of some parts of New Jersey and Con necticut; and in the neighborhood of New Heven, in the the latter State, the 44 basalt " is seen resting upon the redtone, just as it does upon the hills that skirt the Rhine. Nearly all the German and swiss wines, and, indeed nearly all the grapes grown in Ger many and Switzerland, are white for which the soil and climate of the for mer country seems pecularly adapted, while at the same time unsuited for ripening colored grapes to the tint needed in a true red wine. The pecu liarity of the better sort of Rhenish wines is 44 bouquet," and of the inferi or sort, acidity compared with them ; their i rench rivals are quite negative, and so are those of Switzerland. A French wine, white or red, must be very poor indeed if it shows any acid ity, and must be very fine indeed if it possesses any easily-tasted "bouquet." Altogether, we must award the palm of excellence to the white wines of the Rhine, as we do to the skill and in dustry of the vine-dressers who pro duce them. In considering the merits of the different soils as geologically distinguished from each other, we seem drawn to the conclusion that, so far as our observation has gone, the red sandstone is the superior one ; but we confess ourselves unfit to make any such sweeping generlization, and will only say that the soil in question, for aught we can see, seems as fit as any other to grow a superior wine. The difference between wine made by fer menting the bruised grapes, juice, skin pulp, and seeds altogether, and called red wine," and that made by press ing immediatly after gathering and fermenting ist pressed juice by itself, called 44 white wine " is not a differ ence of color alone. For certain bodily temperaments and for certain conditi ons of health, possibly, too, for the pecular constitution of the German people, white wines may be the best. And to that of the Rhine country Licbig attributes the virtue of being an antidote for calculus and gout. But all this being admitted, the better reasons seem to favor the production and use of the red wine in preference to the white, where it can be done. The testimony we have obtained from the best source of knowledge on this point amount to this : Red wine is much less heating, much more tonic, much less exciting to the nerves, much less intoxicating to the brain ; and its effects are more enduring than white wine. As we of America are, by reason , of our dry climate, as well as from moral causes, more excitable, both from brain and nerve, than the Europeans, and at the same time much oftener in need of tonic diet, and our summer heats are so mnch more intense than in the wine latitudes of Europe, all the above considerations should have peculiar weight with us. bo highly, at least, do the French people appreciate them that they consume now little white wine, and itfbears always a lower price in the market than red of equal quality. To the general consumption of 'this drink intelligent frenchmen are apt to attribute the fine health of their peasantry, as well as their ha bitual paiety and habitual temperance (The habitual use of whiskey has quite another eliect.) An American;- gen tleman, for many years residing in France, and for a time a professor in one of the universities, affirms that the greatest longevity is among those people who take red wine three times a day and abstain iroin Doth tea and coffee. When Americans consult French physicians, three times in four they are ordered to drink red wine as a habitual beverage ; aud one of the commonest daily events among Americans residing in Pans is the cure of an obstinate dyspepsia by the same simple remedy, even in the unhealth- ful air of that city. The German vineyards havehither- to escaped any very serious ravages from the 4 'vine disease." It is met as often as it appears, and successfully combated with sulphur. Three appli cations are made, the hrst as soon as the berries have grown to be as large as the head of a pin. .Larry in the day and before the dew is dried off, the flour is sprinckled on the lower .sur face of the leaves, where the moisture causes it to attach. At Rheims we were shown a large vine, trained to a wall, one half of which had been treated as above in the spring of the year before, and the other half neglected. The latter had i as a consequence, lost all of its fruit, and we visited the place and saw it the following season. It showed yel low and fallinsr leaves in July, and very little .fruit, while the other por tion was perfectly healthy, and was loaded withacrood crop af fruit. This experiment was made by a French gentleman, who had recently returned from a long sojourned in America, and visited that country for the pur pose of satisfying himself if the sul phur be really a preventive or not against the vine disease, of which he had heard so many doubts expressed while in America.
