The berries were very well flavoured, and 

 resemblance to those of the Black Hamburgh in that respect, but 

 the skin was thick. From the exceedingly healthy and robust • 

 habit of the Vine, the productive character it has assumed, and 

 the altogether excellent flavour of the fruit, the Committee was of 

 opinion that this is a Grape worthy of notice in large establish- 

 ments, where a variety of sorts can be grown. 



Early Kienzheim :— This remarkably early grape of the Chas- 

 selas race ripened in the first and second weeks of August. The 

 plant seems to be a good bearer, but the bunches and berries 

 were small. The flavour was very good, being sweet and plea- 

 sant; and after hanging for a month or six weeks the flesh 

 becomes rather firm, and the juice inspissated and rich. This 

 was recommended as a good Grape, and valuable for its earliness. 



Black Monukka:— The bunches on this variety have, this 

 season, been of a very large size, and very densely furnished with 

 the singular ovate-cylindiical berries, which are destitute of seeds. 

 It was considered a variety well worthy of notice. 



Burchardt's Amber Cluster :— The high opinion that was 

 formed of this early white Grape last year was fully confirmed 

 by the present Committee, which decided that it vtas an excellent 

 early variety. 



Golden Hamburgli :— The great productive power of this 

 Grape has, this season, been the source of universal admiration, 

 the plant from one end to the other being completely laden with 

 immense bunches, with berries of very large size. The flavour 

 was inferior to what it was last year, owing doubtless to the heavy 

 crop, to the great amount of rain, and to the Vine being planted 

 in the outside border; but it was nevertheless of such a cha- 

 racter as to warrant the Committee in expressing the opinion that 

 it is a most valuable Grape. 



Black Hamburglis : — The Committee confirmed the opinion 

 formed last season with respect to the Black Hamburghs, with 

 the exception of the Mill Hill Hamburgh, which was now found 

 to be without doubt a veiy distinct variety. Not only was it 

 distinguished from all the other Black Hamburghs by the pale 

 wavy and drooping foliage ; but the berries, which were of the 

 size and form of the Dutch Hamburgh, were thin-skinned and 

 teuder-fleshed, characters which at once distinguish it from that 

 variety, which it most nearly resembles in appearance. 



Muscat Citronelle:— This small Chasselas-Iike Grape pro-
