TEA.-A writer in the Boston Advertiser
states that the black and green Tea may be-
cultivated to any extent in the United States.
It Is now twelve years since both varieties
have been introduced into France, where
they have fourishcd ever since ia the open
air, without any. species Of artificial protec.
ton. A French gentleman, M. SianisIaus
Julien, has engaged to translate from the
Chinese language, as soon as it may be
wanted for practical use, an extended trea-
tise upon the culture of tea and its divers
preparations. This is the same individual
who translated the synopsis of the Chinese
treatise upon the culture of the mulberry
trees, and the raising Of silk worms, which
was published by order of the French goy-
eminent. We should not he altogether sur
prised, if the culture Of the tea plaat is des-
tined to take the place Of the morus multi
caulis bubble.-Bost6s Journal.

PRrNT1Sc.-A curious legend exist reIa-
tive TO the discovery Of printing. Ons eve
ming in the tiflieth century, Faust was trav-
cling towards town in Germany. Just
before him rode traveller on horse back.
The shoes of the horse left on the even, soft
ground distinct and regular impressions re-
peated with exactness each step. F-ust
observed this. The next day printing was
invented. SIS Ia
There is singular account given Of the
discovery Of Liihographv, which took place
only forty years ago. One night Alloys
Senefelder, chorist Of the Munich Theatre,
entered his small room, with three things in
his hand-a hone for razors, an order to draw
his months pay and printers ball charged
with printing. ink, for it was he who made
on the theatre check the little mark chang
ed each inc to prevent fraud. Scarcely
had he laid the order on the mantle before
it was blown of, and fell into basin Of wa
ter. Allows snatched up the precious paper,
wiped it, and replacing it on the m,ntle-
piece, put on it, to prevent its being blown
away, the new razor hone, which on the
way had rubbed against the ball. The
nlack marks made by this contract we're OBJ
served next day, transferred with admirable
precision 10 the damp paper. The chorist,
Alloys Scnefelder, observed this, and lithog-
raphy was invented.

LONG DAYs.--We have letter from ST.

the writer of whieli states, that such was the
length Of the days in that latitude, at that
time that he could distinctly see to read du-

aThey we're about two miles from the
shore, when some of the men declared il was
lost job, and that they could 60 no farther.
Mrs. Clements had become quite senseiess
with cold and exhaustion, but her sister lis
tened eagerly to what the men said. They

their conversation she could not understand.
There was little boat as,crn of the larger
one, which they drew tot, and entered one
by one, the last man calling out as he step

lost their prize
"The boat had disappeared in the sur.
rounding darkness before the terrified lady
comprehended all; and then, sir, in mo-
ment the frighiful truth flashed rpon her.
The devils had scuttled the boat and il was
linking fast. She said one prayer, and
turned toi<iss her sleeping sister, when Mr..
Clements voice sounded almost at her side!
There he was, sir-there he was in the self
same little pleasure boat which had been the
cause of all their msfortunes. He had just
time to lift the ladies out Of the boat, and to

is setting sir, said the samphire gaiherer.

turned away on his path, sone ofthese days,
when you are strolIing on the rocks below,
sir, you will look at the cavern where Mr..
Clements found his wife. You can imagine
much better than can describe what mus,
have been their feelings in such a place,
and at such time. Good evening sir"
