“For the purposes of my argument, the origin and

be stated with sufficient conformity to historical fact,
that »ume century and a half ago, or a little more, a few
thousand native* of .\frica, in form and mind stamped
only with the coarsest rudiments of the Caucasian race;
scarcely bearing the impress of the human race divine;
savage in their habits, both of Wi»r and peace; ferocious
as the wild beasts of their own native haunts, were
caught up and tranport*‘d t>> the>e shores, reduced t. a
•tate of bondage, and they and their desceml.ints held
in slavery until this day. What do we now behold.
These few thousand savages have become a great peo
ple; numbering three millions of souls; civilized, chris
tianized: each new generation developing some ir'pr'ivtvJ
features, mental ani physical, and indicating some fur
ther appri'ximation to the race of their masters. S'arrh

The rapi 1 multiplication and improved lineaments of

freely, with their masters, of the fat of the land. Go, 1

you find a fact comparable 10 "hi?? The history of the
Hebrew bondage presents no parallel—nothing S i won

nation; were of a superior race and civilized. There is
one single analogy, however, besides that of bondage,
which may be traced in the history of these two peoples.

zation 1 h'lvt; -eon the institution recognized by the
theocratic governriient of the Jews—the chosen deposi
tories of the Wmri> ijf Life bv democratic Athens and
republican Rome. I have seen, upon the overthrow of
Koman civilization by the savage hordes of the north,
that those new masters of western Europe and their suc
cessors adopted and continued to uphold the same in-
■•titution. under various modifications, adapted to the
changing condition of lioth slave and master, and still
under an advancing civilization, until u comparatively
recent period. 1 see the same institution tolerated and
maintained in Eastern Europe at this day. I see the
native race of all British India, at this moment, bowing
the neck under a system of jaati slavery. But, above
all, 1 have seen here—on this continent, and in these
United States, the original lords of the soil subdued to
•lavery, others expelled, driven out, and the remnant
still held in subonlination; and all this under an inter
pretation of the law of nature, which holds good at this
day among our northern V>rethren, and I have yet in re

three millions of ihe African raca, whose labor is sub
ject to the will of masters, and under such circum-
•tances that their condition cannot be ehanged, though
iheir masters should will it, without destruction alike to
the interest* and welfare of both master and slave.
These are the lights by which I read and interpret the
law of nature.
Now, sir, permit me to say a few words upon the ef
fects of this institution upon the country which tolerates
it. To the ^eat fact to which I have more than once

FROM THE WINK PREStJ.
THK MAKTNO OF WINES.
We have received a great many letters asking
for information upon this subject, and accordingly
lay down a few general principles that may he of
service to young beginners.— E. \S P.
The Mitst —Wo suppo.se that the grapes are
fully ripened and ready to use, although still on
the vines. Select a clear day and gather the vin
tage as soon :is the dew is ofl the grapes. Every
bunch should be clipped from the vines with u
pair ot scissors, and carefully laid in a basket, or
other vessel, to avoid bruising as much -.is possible.
«lather none but the fully ripe grapes, and as
many ot them as can be pre.ssed in a day to insure
unif'orui quality; a very important eon.sideration.
Besides, the larger the (juantity fermented -at once,
the lietter the wine will be. The grapes being
luought to the wine house should now be care
fully overlooked, and all the imperfect and de
cayed ones removed. The next consideration is
whether the grapes shall be pressed with, or
without, their stems!' Many recommend the lat
ter, as there is an aatringent property in the
stems that trives a peculiar Havor to the wine; but
no doubt the better way is to stri[> the berries
Ironi the stalks. 'I’his is sometimes done by hand
picking, liut a very simple iiistruiiient will greatly
exviedite the prK‘ess. 7'ake a box or trough, and
lay within it. ;i lew inches from the bottom and
from the top. a lattice-work »»f wooden slats (which
had better be joined without nails;) upon this lay
the bunches. Lay a similar Imt smaller lattice,
with a handle to work it, uj«>n the mass, and by
rubbing the grape.s between the two, tin* berries
will readily separate from the combs and fall
through into tlu? trough beneath. By the aid ol’
an as>istant, drawing the grapes as they fall,
through an opening at the end (j1 the trough, a
groat deal can be done in u short time. The next
step is to tmtsh the grapes, 'I'he oldest ;iiid best
method is to stamp them with naked feet. In
some wine uountrie.s the stampers wear nihotn, or
wooden shoes; sometimes wooden pounders or
beetles are used; and sometimes the grf>,pes are
pa.s.sed between rollers, grix>ved or fluted
uUi/, so as not to break t)ie grape stones. (There
is a bitter principle in the stones or pips very inwh
to f>!‘ itvuiiif’d. ■
We now come (0 the pre.ssing The ordinary
wine press is a platiorm of solid wood, rai.sed high
enough from the ground to allow the must to run
through a spout on one .^ide into proper vessels.
Two upright beams ot heavy timber, and a cross
beam at top, support a powerful screw, that i.-.
worked by hand levers, like a windlass. The
grapes are placed upon the plattbriu and heavy
timbers laid upon them; then above these other
tiers of timbers are crossed, aud upon all the great
.screw comes down, just as the President of the
I nited States corner down upon the postmasters
and collectors
Besides the above there are .^mailer presses used
some ot which are for sale at the agricultural ware
houses. l-'or small quantities of grapes a home

A few hint.s about pre.ssing. Some exquisite
wines are made by piling a ma.ss ot trodden grapes
in a great ujiright ve.ssel. and u»ini: only tlie must
that runs otf without the aid of the .screw. The
rest of the must goe> to jiress. and produces an
ordinary wine. \Vh>.n the wine-press i' used
alone, three (jualitie» can be produced: riraf, by
reserving the must that tiows iroiu the gentlest
prcsisurc, s*cu/h l/j/, by keejniiir apart the must of
aseverer pres.-ure, and thirdly, by extracting the last
drop of juice with ail the power of the screw aidel
by a lontr rope attached to the lever, and worked
by a windlsLss. We may also add, that a sort of bas
tard \S ine can be made, by adding water to the
skins lett after the third pressure, partially fer
menting the m:iss, and .subjecting it to a t'ourth
pre.'sure The product, however, i' not wine, but
only a tirst cou.sin ot wine, of poor quality, and
known as piqu^tt^ .
In this country, these nice distinctions Mrc not
always observed, llu- entire product of a vine
yard often gi'K's to form one wine vnly, and in this
view we shall continue: hintinsr, that a.s the select
wines of the world bring enormous prices, and the
conimon wines the opposite, that it is worth
the while of every Auiorican wine maker to do
his best, and loll'^w the injunction of St. Paul

purpose; > thuiihl ht'at Uinje m poxi^iblt,
“tor the larger the cask the better ttie wine.”
Ihe casks should be three-quarters luli only, and
it is recommended by some, that a square hole,
about six inches across, should be lett at the toj>,
covered by a coarse piece of canv:i.ss. The follow
ing extract from !\!ulder’s “Chemistr}' ot Wine,”
will explain this process clearly:
“Shortly after pressing, the liquid appears to
be in motion, and little air bubble.s rise to the
surface; fermentation has begun; the juice not
quite clear at tirst, beconu^s more turbid, the mo
tion of the litjUor increases, and froth i& formed
on the surface; the gas bubbles become larger, the
consi jtency ot the liquid decreases, as do also its
saccnarine contents In place of these more and
morp alcohol is engendered, and tlie lijuid, orgin-
ally watery, and now enriched with alcohol to a
greater or less deijree, can no longer retain in a
state ot perfect solution various matters which it
previously held in that condition. Fermentation
reaches its highest point with greater or less
rapidity according to the temperature; in a moder
ate climatc it generally occurs in from three to
four days.
hen the fermentation is diminishing, and
befoie it i« completely finished, the whole mass of
liquid is stirred up, in order to bring its elements
into contact with each other afresh.
“After some days the whole mass reaches its
highest point of effervescence and at this it remains
for three or tour days; it then begins to diminish,
and by forming a precipitate at the bottom allows
the wine to become gradually clearer.
“ 1 he wine is now racked off into another vessel,
the sediment being left behind. Fermentation
continues, but more quietly; and this is called
after-fermentation. Sugar is constantly being con
verted into alcohol and carbonic acid, and a fresh
precipitate is continually forming and depositing
itself at the bottom,
“After the wine has undergone this after-fer
mentation for several months (and the fermenta
tion generally increa«es again during the next
spring, at the time it is said when the vines blos
som, that is, when the warmth of the air excites
fermentation again,) and has been drawn off from
time to time into other vessels, hi order to free
it from the sediment which has been continually
forming, it ia transferred into casks in which it
can be exported.”

Th>' Te.riis Trouhle^—It is thou;:ht not im
probable that many of the recent tires in 'I'exas
have resulted from the extreme ilrought which has
prevaileil in that .''tate. At any rate the stories
circulated are of the most exa;_';:erated chanicter. !
The statement that two thotisand white Abolition
ists were in .\ntierson county, is only one .speci-
men of the absurd tictions which have been pro
mulgated The total vote of the county last year
wis only 1,100, and it would not re(juire so large
a body \>f Abolitionists to frighten all the slave
holders out of it. Another theory o! these alarms
may be found in the fact that the Texans are very
solicitou« of inducing the (Jovernment to send a
force of I'nited States troops into the Stite ,\t
one point a young man had been hung, as alle;:ed,
tor giving strychnine to slaves with which to ^
poison the wells At another a preacher had
been hung tor beinir an Abolitionist, Two t>ther
persons had received the same delicate attention
el.sewherc. A siL,'nificant eoi;imentary on all this
excitement, however, unv be t’ound in the f;u t
that the people ot Henderson, although their
town has sufferod severely from tire, are rep(.rt> d
to be unwilliniT to belie\e that any consjiiracy
exists—Hultitimr. A merican
The (\‘>lif Shiie 'Irnle—'ihe Washington
('orrespondefit ol the C’harlest.)n  ourier u!ider .
date ol the llUh iiist , says:
“An official document of unusual interest and
inip»ortance has appearel to-d;iy. It is a response
by the government to the proposition of (^reat |
Britain for the sup{)ression of the African Slave
Trade on the coa.st ot Cuba, and the substitution
of the Coolie system. l>ecided dissent is given
by our government to this proposal, and (Jreat
Britain is forcibly reminded that she is bound bv
honor and good taith, as well as by trenty and |
subsidy from Spain, to prevent the slave traffic
on the co:ist of Cuba; while the Spanish govern
ment complains when our cruisers enter (’uban
waters even, and recently protested against it.
The President considers the (’oohe trade a hor
rible species of traffic, and one that if introduced
into the Tnited State:' would not only corrupt
Christianity it.sclf, but would compete with and
depreciate the value of white labor in the North- ,
ern States. 'I’he document is long and will be
read with interest.’' ;
A most extraordinary case i.s now trying before I
one of the French Courts. A certain M. C. died, i
leaving an expre.s,s order to his heirs that he should j
be buried in church, and a handsome suai paid to
the priests on condition that‘‘nobody sl^Juld laugh
while the service was going on.” The intelligent
defunct had observed that under-takers and priests
permit themselves very often to take hilarious
liberties with death, and he was determined that
he should be buried with the gravity appropriate
to the grave. Ol course the odd request got
noised abroad; all the village came to the funeral;
and everybody keeping an eye on everybody else
to see that nobody should so much as wink, the
natural result followed. A tat priest near the
coffin was the first to break down; the choir boys,
in the frailty of their youth, followed the fat priest;
the minor canons, trying to stop the choir boys, or
at least to make them “laugh out of the wronir
side of their mouths,” caught the contagion, and
began to shake their sides; the deacons went ofl
next into a full guffaw; and finally the cure him
self wasconquered and choked in his handkerchief.
In short, a merrier interment was never witnessed.
It was the joke of the season. But the heirs not
liking the sjwrt have refused to pay the clergy
for their rollicking services, and the matter is now
in Court, where it will doubtless cease to be a
laughing matter to anybody but the lawyers.
