Tlie two great grape Exhibitions held last autumn in few- 
York and Cleveland, awarded to tlie Adirondac, tlie prize for 
tlie “ Best native grape of any kind, quality to rule ” 
Tlie discovery and introduction of the Adirondac grape is an 
event of tlie highest importance to grape growers, and tlie 
greatest advance yet attained in native gaapes. Its peculi¬ 
arities are. extreme earliness, large clusters and berries, ten 
derand thin skin, melting without any perceptible pulp, aim 
of tlie most delicate and delicious flavor, reminding one oi 
that snlended Hot-house grape the “Black Hamburg.” Also 
first class vines of the following varieties, at the lowest rains, 
viz.: Allen’s Hybrid, Creveling, Concord, Cuyahoga, Dela¬ 
ware, Diana, Hartford Prolific, Iona, Israella, Maxatawnev

GRAPE VINES. 
My stock this season comprise?all tlie valuable hardy v* 
rieties, and lias been produced with tlie greatest care, to so 
cure plants that will give uniformly tlie best results. Tlie 
great superiority that my vines have exhibited throughout 
tlie country, warrants the confident belief that I can, as here¬ 
tofore, furnish the best and cheapest vines that can be offered. 
The introduction ol the Delaware vine was an event of the 
utmost importance in American Grape Culture, in giving us 
a most hardy and enduring vine, superior to all others, in 
habit and character, as well as in the. surpassing quality ol 
its fruit, which fitted it to become “tlie educator of Ameri 
can taste,” to use tlie apt expression of Mr. Peter B. Mead. 
Until shown by the practical test of the Delaware, the great 
excellence attainable by the native grape was not known. 
From the extensive dissemination of this variety, the Amer¬ 
ican taste has already become, to a considerable extent, ed¬ 
ucated, and ready to appreciate and accept those only that 
are capable of yielding the highest degree of refreshing 
enjoyment. 
Allen’s Hybrid fulfills this requirement for tlie garden, for 
which it possesses a very good degree of hardiness, an excep¬ 
tion that belongs probably to the Israella, only the latter lias 
not been quite so extensively tested, having been one season 
less in bearing, but with the same constancy and excellence 
of liahlt. 
Tlie ISRAELLA Is of large size; bunches largo and 
compact, very dark in color, ripening as early as the Hart¬ 
ford Prolific, tender to tlie center—of very remarkable and 
peculiar excellence, for full account of which see price list. 
Price list, (or two, if requested,) with full account of theso 
new kinds, sent on receipt of stamp. TYlion requested, » 
proposition will also be sent for the formation of clnbs by 
which all of tlie members can obtain the vines at wholesale 
prices. For notice of Catalogues and Manual of tlie Vine,
