When Kentucky was admitted in 1791, ft Is said copper coins were struck with bM jpfuribus Unum. They were made In l&aglani, The act of Congress of 1799, authorizing the establishment of $ mint, and the coinage of gold, silver #nd copper, did not prescribe this mot nor was it ever legalized. It was laced on gold coins In 1796. arid on Silver coins in 1798. It was constantly iksed thereafter until 1936, when it was Withdrawn from the quarter-dollar of peWidevice. In 1834 it was dropped from gold coins to mark the change In fhe standard fineness ol thlk eoin. In 1837 it was dropped from silver ftoins, marking the era of the l^evised Hint Code.

Dr. Underhill, the well-known grape-grower of Croton Point, died In 1871. Some of his heirs entertained temperance views of such extreme kind, that they were unwilling to allow the stock cf wines then on hand to be sold or any more to be made. The grapes have sometimes been sent to market, and sometimes left to decay opon the vines. It is only now that the other heirs have succeeded in arranging for a settlement of the estate and the sue ef the wines on hand. Among these is a wine of the vintage of 1864, desctioed as a "Sweet Union Port," but suggesting the Imperial Tokay more " ia' than any other European wine, and being wholly unlike any other wine of American growth. Its purity, age and mellowness are remarkable, and both physicians and wine- fanciers have a special interest in it as the oldest native wine now accessible in any con­ siderable quantity.
