But proceed to those of intermediate size or that, say, of buckshot, in our first class, viz. 8th. Norton's Virginia Seedlings, called after the late Dr. Nor ton of Kiclimond, Va. This we find oneofihc finest for table use, and wine making productiveness, (capable of 4J0u galiyns per acre) and freedom from rot. 9th. Cunningham. This is also a grnpi from Virginia, most excellent for eating; and one difficulty only as lo wine qualities, viz. on every raceme some smalLgrecu grapesintcr persed among the ripe ones. But to obvi iio this wo omit picking out the grtvn berries, and make the wine in the way the late Mr. llerbemoiit made his bwt Madeira (ora white wine from his colored grape) that is, by putting the grapes, uomashed, under the press, and iter pressing, the rine cranes nnlv -fr- found mashed lv nressinrr.

C. and now I see, from Agricultural pe riodicals, mostly cultivated in the Nor thern and Middle States. But its pro neness to rot ou the vines renders it a very uncertain fruit in the South; and the older the vines the worse, so that some, lis Meanl, iii this State and Vir gtuia, have given up vineyard culture in despair ot proht whose priucipa vines were tne Catawba; and 2. The Isabella; anil no effectual remedy we have found for this tantalU zing casualty, but that of cutting down in the fall seasons, most of the vines of these sorts and grafting on their stocks some ot the hrst general class as good at least in every respect, and far better as to certainly of a well matured crop. Three years, since, we procured a kind of lUwta, sard not to.- rot: the young vines ot wnat we call baton's Catawba, so lar have matured their fruit, 3- Cobsvine. 4. Alexauder. 6. ConstHiitia-, or Vivay. This last that chiefly cultivated by the Swiss settlers in . Indiana: But ho'wevef sue ceeding with them, when vines young ai icasi, u proves nere one ot the rot ting kinds; although it, as well as all just named, fine large fruit when hap pening to mature. This second class now continued with eranes of inter mediate size. J .

Longworth's Ohio. The distin guished Agriculturist, Mr. N. Long- worth, near Cincinnati, sent me a few years since some cuttings of this by man in a newspaper, and by grafting 1 have cultivated it to some extent. But here it is of no peculiar excellence, and l hnd prone to rot; though Mr. L. informed me that it had proved a most excellent variety in his locality. We have procured from nearer and more distant parts of our country a con siderable number more kinds of inter mediate sized berry and exceptionable in some respects, among which I name 9. Bland's Madeira, or Red English. 10. White English. 11. Enfield. 12. Hunters ville, fcc., And also several varieties of small berry and small yield, though otherwise fine. Three only of these w add to Our list of the second class viz: 13. Wilcox. 14. Guinard's Native. 15. The Elsingburg. We have uuder trial a larse number of Seedlings and of those procured from every wncrc we could hear of a good native; and may give the result in due time. But that our variety of vines i quite gratifying in result as to abun dant productiveness, as well as fine qualities of grapes, we give a fact occur ring since mis communication was permitted.)

A correspondent of the Farmers' Cab inet oi Philadelphia gives a sketch ofl tne sceues and proceedings of the recent annual meeting of the New York State Agricultural Society, attended by 40.IXX) persons, from whuh we makca few ex tracts lvliw Mi j" w e am nope io vt n,t " dlSUUt day Sta, T der ti.fl fmf!f,,,r-..ni4,,,, .1.0. . ? . ",la 1 mcotaie oi iorui Carolina which will be in some degree comparable in its oenenciai enccts with tins noble insti tution of New York? I he correspondent of the Cabinet states that New York spends anually irom s.tHJUto $,UUOon her Agricul tural Societies. Referlng to the grond exhibition at Utica, he describes the gratificalion he wJould derive from a similar display in Pennsylvania; bui any hope ot this, he thinks, is obscured by darkness, adding: "For while New York leads so gloriously, and exhibits such convincing proofs of the wisdom and. patriotism of her legislation, in the encouragement of Agricultural Societies, Pennsylvania stands spell bound in the toils of party spirit and iuciiou a spini wnicn produced cor ruption ond oppression at home, throng. lunding and Rnancurini', and the sneers and contempt of those abroad. who loaned the money which politicians niaue use oi to pander to party ascen aancy, or individual aggrandisemcn While Virginia is beginning to awake to a proper sense of the true interests of a otate the promotion of its aericu ture the farmers of Pennsylvania dru dge 011 in dogged toil to pay the taxes brought upon them by improvident leg iMauon, wnicn tney- themselves lroi umc to time sanctioned and sustained m the spirit of party at the polls." 10 give you some idea ol the num ber of persons who witnessed this Ex hibition," says the writer, u it is only necessary to state that the Society, as 1 learned, added lo their funds something over jmiu tor admissions to tin grounds, at twelve and a half cents for each visitor and contributors, who, with their fam . tliesThad free -"'dmisWhVTlbun'aiiS dividuals, and in many instances, fom ilies, husbands and wives, brothers and sisters from almost every part of the state of New York, and not a few from Canada. . To hint at the spirit of New York, I need only remark, tht all the railroad companies volunteered to carry cattle, norses, hogs, sheep, agnculiurn implements, nuuer and cheese every thing to be exhibited fromany distance within their respective lines, free of ai charge ; not only this, but every indi vidual who visited the show, was carried to and from Utica at half the usual f.ire In what other place except New York could a corporation be found to act thus patriotically and generouslyl When saw the immense trains arnvine con stantly, filled with huge oxen, fat steers and stock of all kinds sot down free, the agents as courteous, civil and bland, as if they had made a most comfortable and profitable trip, instead of bavins had unusual and vexatious trouble in taking in and discharging cargo, and no freight; I began to think there was no lnsolcnccf of office In New York, and that there were exceptions to the sweep nig imputation that certain bodies had no souls. 'Among the cattle exhibited the first class of Dnrhams took the lead, as in deed they do every where. Where there are no Durhams he exhibition in cuttle will always look mean and meagre to the eyes of those who are familiar with this noble breed. The principal contributors to this class were Mr. Prentice of Mount Hope: Mr. Vail bi lroy; Mr. Sherwood of Au burn; Messrs. Bell and Morris, ex tensive dairymen of Westchester, near ."New York, Mr. Ballard of Southport; Mr. Carey of Marcy; Mr. Nicholas of Geneva; Mr. Brinkerhoff of Albany; aid Mr. Wakeman of crkimer, to whom were awarded the principal premiums Mr. Wadsworth of Genesse, formerly presiuem oi me society, exniDited ten yoke of oxen of such size, form and trai ning as not only did great credit to himself, but reflected favorably on the whole state they were awarded the first. The Herefords and Ayreshires were represented and the red cattle, or Devons, with sundry grades, were num- erons. 'i tie sheep were very superior and consisted of various distinct and improved breeds. It was regretted, nowevpt, mat air Kandall of Court land, did not exhibits portion of his celebrated Merinoes. The horses, from the thoroughbred stallion to the special draught horse, were superior and nu merous. The ploughing match was spirited and interesting: in no part of the llni. ted States it is helieved could so many fine ploughs, ploughmen and team h exhibited as competed for the prizes at Utica. Mr. Delano's improved dia mond sod plough took the first premium he exhibited also a cross nlouch. for fal low or broken land, whicn to my liking was the beet I ever saw. "The Flora and Pomona Hall was a beatiful affair, tastefully' festooned and decorated by the ladies of Utica. The fruits and flowers were creditable off. special Horticultural exhibitions , of Philadelphia. But then the Farmers' Hall, where were exhibited the butter, cheese and dairy utensils of Oneida and adjoining counties; Where and how could it be surpassed Nowhere, take it all in all, I will answer for it. A Pennsylvania farmer can form no ade- quale idea of the capital employed in cheese-mak iug alone, nor the perlect iou to which this part of dairy husbandry is carried, "The State of New York, nay, the whole agricultural community, are indebted to the officers and members of the State- Society for their indtrsVy, perseverance and management, mxar- rymg out so ably the great work of -improvement, by means of these 'grand exnioiiioiiB, wnicn snealc in such in- telligible language, to so many thou sands at once, of what has. and. what can be done in, the various departments ov agricultural science "und domestic economy." "What a world is New York her agriculturists and merchants her pub lic works her territory , and popula tion her bays, rivers and lakes she is indeed 'land of the mountain and (he flood! And compatible with ail these are her public spirit and enterprizi the munificence and hospitality of her generous and enlightened citizens. J. G." Mb.

What a piiv it ul but then men would quit quarrelling a Dout Whigitm and Democracy, Texas and Oregon, and turn their attention to far mingto manuring and "ploughing deep while sluggard sleep." (You know what the Doctor aaid.) But, Mr. Editor, there is one custom among a great many of our farmers, which they cannot break through, i. e. ahallow ploughing. For being unaware of the depth and extent to which corn roots pen etrate a deep loot soil, and that by expo tint the earth t6 the atmogpWie, aoil is ac' tually produced, they are apprehensive that if a thin light toil be turned under pretty deep and mixed with the earth beneath, that it will, in the general mixture, loee all ita vegetating propertiei) and that if ihey depoeite their manure any depth in the earth, that a few heavy rains will settle all it nutriliout qualities beneath the corn roots, and ihty will not be remunerated for their labor in preparing and aoolvinir il Yes, they fear that deep ploughing will wear out their land; notwithstanding all experience and authority proves to the con trary. For the Hon J. S. Skinner hat ascertained that the aggregate lengt h of Ihe root of one hill of com i mire than eight thoutand feel, and extendi four feet deep, which proves at once the neceitity of deen ploughing, ts afford ample apace for the root, and tuftic ent nourishment for the plant; and eominon sense alone teachei us that ibe deeper the soilthc le will our corn be liable lo be affected br the drourht Mr. Junior, thoee men who. in apiieof all experience, hold on to the old custom of shallow ploughing, remind me of an anec dote which I will relate to vou. In old times, when the people raised no manure, ploughed shallow, and contenucntlr made but little eorn, it was the cut torn of one man, when he went lo mill lo depotite hit eorn in one end or hi bag, and a rock in the other end to balance it.

Agricultural fairs and conventions are all the rage at the North. hen the popular feeling receives an irhpulse towards agricultural improvements.it becomes all, of whatever occupation, to rejoice. Agriculture lies at the foun dation of our national independence. Wealth and power. We wish to see it cultivated as the most honorable of the sciences, and by men of the highest en dowment of mind and fortune. Let our national resources be thoroughly de- veiopea in uus suigie Dranch ol Indus try, and all other blessings will follow in the train. The leisure and ih wealth! obtained by enlightened hus bandry are very rarely abused or mis applied. 1 he exhibitions recently in the'eitv oi New Yrk were very imposing Jnnd well calculated to "speed the plough." For a brief account of ihe treat fair at Utica, attended by 40,000 persons. would that we could stir up our fellow citizens to establish a State Agricultural Soci ety, to be conducted upon a similar plan and spirit with the JWthern institutions! It would give great en couragement and advancement to 4) agricultural art among us. All classes of citizens are interested In these in stitutions, particularly the mechanic and rricujtural art among us. AH classes merchant, as well as the farmer, and would be laboring lor themselves, as well as performing a work of patriot ism, in exerting themselves to get them up. One Agricultural Society, at east, ought to be organized without delay in each county, if only a dozen persous can be found in each to begin with. We call upon our intelligent farmers to take the lead in this mattor. ine destiny of the State isin their hands, and it is their duty to exert their tnuuence in its elevation. UTLEYS IMPROVED STRAW CUTTER. A new and improved Straw Cutter iuvented and patented by Mr. Gray Utley, of Chapel Hill, was exhihited here last -week; and was much approv eu oy some excellent judges, who examined it. The blade comes to point in the middle, with saw teeth run ning up on each side, and is made to work rapidly up and down, with great ease, by means of a crank, which may be turned by hand or machinery; antl cuts stalks as Well a straw. It costs only U or $15, and we were so well pleased with its operation, thai cheerfully recommend it to the public as a valuable invention Karmer The chestnut engrafted On tho rut lr ia said to be Terir productive.

A Mr. Ridgeway, of Eutaw, Greene county, Alabama, who has been for several years paying much attention to tne raising oi siocir, has cows for which he lias refused two hundred itallar. One of them gives six gallons of milk a day. We love to record such facts as these, find them where wt may; but how much more when we can mlWt them from sources within our own State! It is with much pleasure, therefore, that We call the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Seth T r . . - . - l junes, mo. in another part ofthis num ber, offering for sale some valuable blooded cattle, the fruit of manvvMr cartful and skilful .attention to the im- provement of his stock.
