A word aa to fireworka and their uae. Donfctlew

THE AMERJCAN JN8TITUTE HORTICVL
TURAL 8HOW.
TM foree of habh ia auch that when the pnblic be
co_.ee accnetomed to one thbg, and ia taught to regard
it ea good, it le aometimee a hard taak to convince it
that ihere are better thinge of the kind in exiatenoe.
Thia dogmalic adherence to cnetom Ib carried, in Eng
land, to far greOer lengtha than in thia eonntry; and
nowMre does theiuventor find itmoredifficult to intro
duoe and popnlarize hia novehy. For maoy yeara we
have culiivated the Ieabella and Catawba grapee, na
tivee of the United Statea, by degreee they have been
introdnced into every State and Tarritory, end not
only may they be aeen climblng tbe porch and rooflng
tie arbor of the lowly oottage, bnt an immei_eamoant
of capilel and ekill ia devoted to tMir cultore, aud the
mannfactnre of Ui.ir wioea. Abont the City of Cin
cionati, thonaande of acree of hill-eide are plaated iu
Tineyard, aod mnch of the wealth and proeperity of
that city may M fair'y attributed to tM developmeot
of thie branch of rural indnatry. Thni a conviction
baa gradnally grown in tbe pnblic mind that the Iea?
bella and Catawba are par ejcelknct the only good
American grapee; and of Uie many thouaanda who
will read th_ paragraph, or go and eee the epecimena
of which we purpote to apeak, the great majority wiU
be eurpriaed lo le?rn that tMre are new kinda which
bid fair to mn tbeir favoritea from tha market.
V'ineyardieta recognire two kinda of grapee, which
are aa eeparate aud dirtinct in their prepertiee and valae
ae can well be imagined. Tbere ie one family whoee
ewtet and lnaciona frnit ia fii only for the table; while
the othtr, whoee jnice may M flaid to poeeeae a high de
gTe* of acidity overcome with a higherdegree of angar
aod agreeably llavored with aroiuatica, ia Uietrae wiue
gTape of the world. Tbe former, of which the aweet
iuictd Chdtitlnt '!'? Font'iimbleaii ia a type, ia terrned
" feeble tlavored;' while the latter, repreaented by tba
Catawba, Diana, Ieabella, and a hoatof othere. iadeiig
nated ae " vinona" and "eprightly." The juioe of
tbe Sweetwater, a foreign grape of Uie Chaaaelaa fam?
ily, ie deecribed in the very name of the variety, and
ia nothing but angar and water, with aome mucilage
added, and aoon palla upou the taale of the eater. Let
any one wbo w irl.ee to aee tbe beat collectiou of Amer?
ican aeedliDg grapee ever grown in thia titygo to the
Ilorticultural ahow at Palace Garden, aud beconvinced
ot tbe truth of what we aay. There, in cloae jo-tapo
aiiioD, tbey will aee Iaahellaa and Catawhae, aud a
Bcore of ober vaiittiea, a mere handfal, it ia true, of
the hundreda wbich are known to uureerymeu, bnt
atill embracing all or nearly all U e kmde recomm.nded
for general culUvatioD. Next to the Iea
bellae and Catawhae lie eomo bunchee of
tbe Nortbern Muacadiue, a foxy or rank
BrfOtod variety, which hardly ever ripeue whole
bnncbea, bnt eeparate barriea which drop ae they ripen.
It bae lit tie to recc-mmend it in riavor to the delicate
].uuite of the connoiaeenv whoee taatehaa heeneducated
amid better thinge, but it may do wellenough for ate w
ing into " aaas for Bnpper-tahlra in the rnral dietricte
In cloae proxinnty are aeveral diihea of the Oelaware.
a grape which, afttr yeara of oppoeition and unfair
treatment, hae been placed at the head of the list. Of
late yeara, wberevc-r it haa como in BBBBBBBM with
other varietiee, it haa received the premiam, and a new
trinmph hae been rtata:d for it at thia aplenid ahow.
Theie are over tweniy varietiee of naiive grapea on
theiul.lta, and among them all the .judgea were to
award a prize for " the beat diah of native giapee, one
" varitty; not leaa tban aix bunchee." When we atate
tbat Ch-tBa Downing and William Keid were mem
l.ere ef that Committee, it will be eeen that tne charge
of iiK-ompetence can aearoely be ull-ged atrainat it
Tbtte mt-n. after try'ng all the kinde, gavettiepremium
to Mr. Skeele for hie dieh of llelawaree, althonghUiey
tliemetlvte are more intereated in the ealo of other va?
rietiee. The Delaware haa a emaller berry than the
Catawba, but it ia aweet to the very center, haa nnne
of tbe aatiiiigtncy of the latter, the rieah ia very jnicy
with aome coD8iatence, and it haa a pnre vinona life,
wbich ie eaeily remaikrd by a atanger at flret taate.
It baa been claimed aa ideuUcal with the Tam jner of
Europe, and a party, with Nicholaa Ixngworth at ite
head, baa et.utly oppoeed ita claims to nati v ity; but the
fritnda of the flelaware poeitively a?aert that it wae
firtt oiecovered and cnltiva'ed by Mr. Thompaon of
DejRware, Ohio, and biing a maea of proof iu aup|?>rt
of (he claim.
Next on the table we eee the Diana, a red grape,
origirjated by Mre. Duina Crehor of Miltcn Hill, near
Bottoo. Ti ie id a aeedliDg of the Catawba, l.at much
parer in Hator than Ute parent ewettter aud mora vi
a ub, hi d fiae from i e ?stringency. Then paaiing
aome leaa valuable vanetiea, we ot uie to a grape which
the Shaker brethren ht I'niou Village, near Ciucinnati,
gave lo the world, throngh the powerful agency of
Mr. Lcngworth, aome twenty yeara ago. When ita
firt-t frnit wae exhibited at a ahow, it waa miatakeu by
the Committee for rare lilack Hanlhurga, and the
tiret j.remium wae gi-en it aa the btet epecimen of tliat
foreign variety,grown in open air, on exhibifjon. Tne
Dnhn Village ia a eeedling of the Ieabella, and bae ita
ptcnliar color and bloom; bui ita ai/.e ia anch that it ia
eaeily miatakeu for the Black Hamburg. Tne de?
mand Ime ever proved greater than the eurply, for it
not only ripena ten daye eaili.-i than ihe Iaibella, but
in Obio a good wine bae been made from it, witbout
tbe adni-.ion of eagar or braudy, which cannot oe
nii.i of the Ieabella.
Ntxt iu order of excellence and tahular poaitinn ia
the Kt-be.ca, prohably aaeedling from the laabela, and
originated by Mre. E. M. Peake of Hudaon. It hae
biiLcbeB of medium aize bnt very compact, the co! ir ia
green in the ehade, bnt a lively amber iu the aun and
ita berriee are covertd with a line bloom. Ita tlavor ia
-wttt and luBcioue, it hae no toughneea, or acidity in

yeatfrday morning, at 10 o'ciock, ta St. John'a Chapel,
in tbe piteenre of a krge body of clergymen and of tbe
laity fiom all parte of the State. A nnmber of ladie.
wtre in Uie gaHeriee.
The opening aervicee coneiated in the nanal ntnal of
the Cbmch of Englaud and a eet-on by tM Rev. Dr.
Coit of Troy.
The clergymen officiating were tbe Rt. Rev. Horatio
Potttr, Provieional Biahop, preaiding; the Bt Rev.

Tbe Rev. Dr. Litti r.Ton aaid morning prayer.
Dr. Coit preacbed from tho text, " tor the people
conld not diaceni tbe noiee mthe abont of joy from the
noiee of tbe weeping peopB,'' Ac., I Lr.ru, 3.131,
and aaid tbat it wonld appear to aome an admiaaahle
thing in rel'gion, tbat the aame religions canaee could
produce diaaimilar reaulte. I'nity of canae waa not al
waya attended by nniformity of effeet; a forcible ex
anple of which waa preaented in the ditfereut feelinga
manifeeted by the people in relation to tbe foonding of
the rew templeallnded b) in tbe text. The preacher
p-o<-i-tded to explain thia apparent incompatibility in
religioue matter* in general, aud eaid it waa rather an
urgiiDn-nt in favor of religion, than agiinat it. The
atonement of Chri*t produued joy and aorrow. The
SiM-raintntfl, which the preacher characterixid aa
d> ctrinee evmlx lized, might prodace doable iaprea
eiona.
After the aermon, the Holy Commnnion araa par
tnkeu by the whole body, both lay and clerical, and
