f The foreign Grapes included in the following assortment are reared from 
plants imported directly from the first collections in France, and deserip- 
tions of neazly all of them will be found in the most celebrated works on 
the culture of the Vine—such as Speechley, Dahammel, Forsyth, &e.—

blished fruits. This practice, so common in our country, and so ealeu-
