At II O'Clock the Directors OF the
Canal repaired to the spot, and each
taking spade, commenced the eXcava-

Immediately followed with cheers and

assembled to witness the interesting
spectacle. The regular laborers to a
large number employed for the purpose,
animated by the great glow of feeling
and interest that peryaded the scene,
then commenced their operations, and
the work progressed with spirit never
surpassed.
At 9 O'Clock, p. M. the directors and
citizens repaired to a bower, prepared
on charming green, in sight of the ca
nal, where, after having an animated and
patriotic address, appropriate to the oc-
casion, delivered extempore by Ethan
Stone, Esq. of Cincinnati, they sat down
to an elegant and sumptuous repast, pre-
pared for the occasion by Maj. Charles
Fuller. Mr.. Stone presided at the din
ner, assisted by Mr.. Embree, as vice
president. Harmony, conviviality, and
good fellowship peryaded the COM
pany, and every thing exhibited spirit
of generous emulation in promoting this
great national work, destined to be enc
of the strongest cements of our union
and common prosperity.

burdens ofthe state must be onerous for

der the hope of alienation, and that hope
was not illusory. After giving the de-
tails OF The several departments of cx-

excited much agitation in the chamber
he concluded by stating, that the credits
required by the government for the year
1918, amounted to eight hundred and
eighty mine millions Of francs.

THE TEA PLANT.
TO DR.. Samuel l.. AHtchiY, on the ,

10 Or. Samuel L.. N1itchiil, on the cul-
HOation Of Tea in the United States.
Since writing my former letters on
this subject, fact has been announced
IN the newspapers which confirms my
ideas, and may greatly facilitate the in
PRODUCTION of tea in the United States.
We are told that the tea shrubs are now
cultivated in France, in open air, and in
quantity. 1t was we'll known that they
were kept i'll many green houses in En- =
land and France, where they thrived and
lowered; but they were deemed too
valuable to be trusted out of doors in
winter. The experiment has now been
made, and has succeeded. Tea will
therefore become, in few years, an in
digenous article in Europe.
The difficulty of procuring the tea
shrubs from the north of China is now
removed. We. may easily get them
from France at once, in pots.--Let them
be carried at first as far south as possible
in the United States-say in Georgia o.,
Carolina. The situation that will best
suit them will be the midland districts
cSS"SNh viz diiU W dillpS. new
may afterwards be gradually removed
further north, when we'll naturalized.
The Agricultural Society of Charleston
ought to be foremost in trying the ex-
pertinent.
1t appears that some writers consider
the green tea shrub as an evergreen.
This, however, is the only species worth
attending to at first, owing to the great
er value Of green teas. The various
sorts may be prepared by the usual
manipulation. The American soil may
also give birth to peculiar sorts. Tho
Chinese give a flavor to some sorts witt,
the powdered flowers of Magnolia and
Camelia. We may initiate it with our
Magnolia, and many other highly scented
flowers, natives of our woods or gardens.

The king, poor old man, was probably
alarmed by the cloudy accounts which
he heard from every quarter, and which
he certainly had goodreasont to be alarm
ed at.
" The .Ultras complain bitterly that
the king has, to use their expression,
thrown himself into the arms Of the Bo-
napartists, as they call the Liberals.
Their hopes are now fixed on his dying
soon, which his infirm health seems to
render probable; but, in fact, it is likely
that accident apart, he will survive seve-
raj years. He has not been outside the
chateau for more than two months. In
case of this occurrence, the count d'Ar-
tots, who is at their head, would certain
ly CRAFTY to the utmost extent, their wish
for violent and energetic measures. He
is excessively attached to every thing OF
the ancient regime. Should his hand
be decked with the sceptre before things

'sAt this time there is buzz of
conspiracy against the ministry, at the
bottom of which is Talleyrand. The
old fish, deprived of power, seems, at
present, to be out of his element. There
is always fear for the beer when he has
hand in the brewing. BY the bye, |
was surprised at his franknoss in observ
ing on his hotel Immediately over the

amuse. himself occasionally by observing
which way the wind blows.
"a discussion is shortly expected

considerable freedom and expresses SEN
