Mr Francis Winship of Brighton has left at 

 the ofiice of the New England Farmer, a few 

 bunches of his grapes, for public inspection. They 

 are from the vine of which some notice was taken 

 page 413 of our last volume. The vine was pur- 

 chased for the Isabella sort ; but the appearance 

 of the fruit is somewhat different from that, and it 

 is thought it may be a new variety. It has had but 

 three years' growth, and has produced this year 

 upwards of 100 bunches of grapes, of large size, 

 fine appgarance, and superior flavour.
