Grapes rai.sed and U'ine maJj^ at Tokay Wiae Cellar, ne.ar Fayetteville, N. C., by wT T. Horne, the purity of %hich is guaranteed, and may be sub jected to a chemical analysis. A fair opportunity for all lovers of good W’ine to supply themselves, and at the same time encourage the pioneers of this branch of business of their own State and country, and get a pure article. In a country like ours, blessed with every thing to make life pleasant, and possessing a propy soil and climate for every plant,—why, otherwise so favored^ should man be deprive*! of the real es'ence of life. Wine? True, this incomparable nectar is not altogether un known here, for many tliousand .■Vmerican Eagles of gold cross the Atlantic annually to bring it to us; but this privilege is attainable only by a few; while the mass of the people may not receive this best gift of na ture. Substitutes have been invented, by drugs nnd poisonous substitutes; but they are poor indeed, com pared to genuine Wine, wliicli makes a man social, con tented and happy; while those mixtures and drugs, at once exciting and stupefying, demoralize liim. As Wine is a pure beverage which nature furnishes, its use should be attainable to everyone. While it inspirits the youth to all that is fair, gool, moral, and grand, it stimulates him in his labor and occupation; makes him .a brave hus band, father and citizen: ar.d brightens the evening of old age. As Wine has so beneficial an influence on the nature and character of the individual, it will likewise exalt the condition of a whole people. Consequ;iiiiy there is reason why we should exert ourselves to in troduce the general culture of the Grape in our own country, as it has been done for centuries in other lands.
