108 THE GEAPE. 



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 CONCOKD 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 MADEIKA is a small pleasant wine 

 grape. Farther south, the Bland, Ohio, Serbernonfs, 

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

 The Delaware, is now the favorite grape for earliness, 

 hardiness, rich, sweet vinous flavor, unsurpassed both 

 for the table and for wine. 



The Anna, Rebecca, Iowa, Crevelling, and other new 

 varieties, promise well. 



Hartford Prolific is a very hardy, early good variety
