108 THE GRAPE. 



We are in great want of a new seedling grape equal 

 or superior to the Isabella and Catawba, and decidedly 

 two or three weeks earlier. We often have such an- 

 nounced, but they do not always prove satisfactory. 



The Concord is a large, handsome grape, newly 

 originated by Mr. Bull, of Concord. It resembles the 

 Isabella in appearance, is about two weeks earlier, 

 and on that account an acquisition ; is of good flavor, 

 although not equal, -we think, to that grape in flavor. 

 It is a little shade foxy. 



The Diana is a pleasant new grape, resembling the 



Catawba in color and flavor, of smaller size and some 



two or three weeks earlier. 

 \ 



The Black Madeira is a small pleasant wine 

 grape. Farther south, the Bland, Ohio, Herbemont's, 

 Norton's, White Scuppemong, Warren, &c., are popular.
