The nert Congress.-The result of the
Connecticut election has secured 10 the
Wings majority III the popular branch Of
iae next Congress. In seventeen Saes,
The elections already held give The Wings
majority Of 6 out Of l5s members. AS,
however, five of the New Jersey Wings

one, Pennsy lvanian Van Burenile 10 Wing,
(Inger> oil to Naylor,) the Administration
majority may be stated, so far, as two. In
this estimate, Messrs Campbell and Thomp.
son, Of this State, are counted as Wings,
(of which we are not sure, and especially as
to the iormcr,) and the Georgia Delegation
as Wings also. There are nine States yet

Sale of Morus Mult,caulis.-A gentleman
of this town bought few weeks since lOOO
morus multicaulis buds, which he planted
aud which are now beginning to put forth
leaves am appear above ground He has
already sold the roots of all trees which these
buds may produce the present season, with
only two inches of the main stock, at tu0
hundred and taoenty Jfrs dollars reservlng to
himself all the cuttings. Suppose that only
900 of the buds should grow, AMI that
these should produce only the average num-
Der of 40 buds or cuttings, he will next winter
have $4,000 buds, which at 3 cents each,
would bring him $780, and at the low price
of one cent, 1920. We have never heard
or read Of multicaulls cuttings selling in this
country for less than one cent per bud, and very
rarely for less than two cents. We know OF
another sale of multcauls buds enough in this
town to plant two thirds ofan acre at cents
each. Tie buds to be delivered next season
from the crop now in the ground.
