large and very handsome, and not so high flavored as the 

 Muscat of Alexandria. A late variety. 



Bloom Raisin Seedling. 



H Wilmofs New Black Hamhurgli. — Has proved fine ; this

IF Whortley Hall Seedling. — ^A good, and very late grape,

IF Bed Traminer. — Good, with small round berries ; has
