NEW SENATOR'S.

After repeated efforts to make choice Of
Senator in the Legislature Of North Caroli-
ma, which failed in consequence Of division
of the Loco Foco votes between Msssrs..
Brown and Saunders, II was agreed between
the friends Of the two candidates that they
should both be Withdrawn. Another ballot be-
ing then taken on Wednesday Of last, week
VIM. H. Hayward, Jr. Esq. was chosen by IS
votes. Mr.. Graham, the present Senator.
and The Wing candidate for reelection. had
65 votes, and Mr.. Saunders 2.
The election had nearly resulted on the
Monday preceding in the choice Of Mr..
Saunders, by the aid of Wing votes. The
last ballot on that day gave for Saunders 70
votes, Brown 81, and % scat,ering--S1 be-
ing necessary for choice.
The additional recent elections Of Sena-
tor are Hon. Daniel E. Hug err, in place Of
Mr.. Calhoun, who has resigned from the 18th

VALUABLE WHEAT.

We wish to direct public attention to a
new variety Of wheat, which has been culti-
waited with wonderful success by our neigh
bors on Shelburn Point, for the last two or
three years. We are not aware of its hav-
ing any distinctive name. TRUMAN NASH,
Esq. of Shelburn, introduced it here, three
years ago, from the northern frontier Of
New York from whence we learn. it is
traced into Canada-and that Is all that i.
known Of it. But that i, is very superior
variety, admits OF no doubt. Mr.. Mesh and
Burlington free press. [volume] (Burlington, Vt.) 1827-1865, 1842-12-30

his neighbors have now cultivated it three
years, and in no instance has i, suffered from
either rust or insect; while the common red
cI'af and white flint, sown side by side, for
the sake Of experiment, have as uniformly
been destroyed by the one or the otl'er.-
And so unvaryng was this rule, that where
tho varieties met and necessarily intermixed,
the mildew and the blight invariably sought
out the victim red-chaF, while the scattering
heads Of the new variety stood bright and
unscathed amid the surrounding desolation.
This is a bearded wheat, of luxuriant
growth, and averages, in Shelburn, from IS
to 80 bushels. From 10 quarts of selected
seed, Mr.. Nash raised the last season over
seven bushels of the most beautiful grain
that ever filled half bushel. The kernel
is uncommonly large, thin skinned, and trans
parent; and the Average weight ouer &C to
the bushel. The yield Of -four is about A.
and Of quality unsurpassed by the best
Genesee. Mr.. WHEELER, the proprietor of
the Shelburn mills, assures US that it is the
best article Of the kind he has ever had any
thing to do with, and that he has no hesita-
ton in recommending j. TO the attention Of
farmers.
We have taken some pains 10 ascertain the
correctness of the facts we state: and those
of our readers who know the Nashes, the
Whites, and the Iracy's, need no assurance
that we have not been imposed upon from
such source. They are sound practical
farmers, who have no speculations in view,
and would scorn TO impose upon their neigh.
bors. Regarding the subject, however, a.
one of great importance to the community
we have taken the liberty of bringing it be
fore the public, without even consulting III,
wishes of the gentlemen alluded to.
We shall have couple of bushels Of tn
grain in day or two, and it may be exam
ined at the Office.

THE FOREIGN NEWS.
MORNING, DECEMBER 80, 1872

The intelligence brought by the Britain
mia, and which will be found in our columns
to day, is Of unusal interest and importance.
The bloody wars in China and India have
been brought to sudden close. British
skill and discipline have triumphed, mostsig-
naly, over the ill-directed valor of the Tar
tan soldiers, and tho Celestials " have at
length been forced into submission to the
terms prescribed by the "outside Barbara
ans" The details Of the treaty show that
John Bull has, with his usual avarice, pur-
sued his advantage to extremties. TWEEN
TY ONE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS, in cash, are
TO be paid, within four years, to the agents
Of the English Government, and tho ports
of Canton, Annoy, Ningpoo, and some others
of less consequence, are to be thrown open
to British merchants. And what is perhaps
of much greater importance, the island Of
Hong Kong has been coded, in perpetuity,
to the Grown of England. Thus has Grea,
Britain acquired permanent foo,hold upon
the soil of China, and those who recolec
how, from just such beginning, she has
gradually extended her sway over all thu
vast regions now known as British India
will at once understand why this cesson o
Hong Kong was deemed of so much conse
quence. An insignificant trading post a
Fort William, which afterwards expanded
into the magnificent city of Calcutta, was
as the Albany Evening Journal! we'll re
marks, the little acorn from which spran
the mighty oak of the British Empire in In
dia. Hong Kong will doubtless prove tn
germ of similar Empire in China.

The u. 5. BRIo SoMEas.-The melancholy occur
renee on board this ship, and the consequences of
good of evil to those concerned require the great
est caution aud deliberatiOn before the public mind
arrives at any conclusion concerning il. The facts
can only be truly and fully exhibited before the con
sli,uted tribunals Of the country, and It becomes
therefore the duty we believe, Of the conductors Of
the public press to abstain, as far as practicable from
giving expression to opinions, until full and fair
vestga,ion is made into the matter. The govern.
ment has ordered that inquiry.
A court, composed of men Of the highest character
and whose names are most endeared to the countr v
has already been detailed Justice will be done-ful
Justice. We therefore deem it improper to admit into
TO our columns any further remarks or com
ment upon the subject, except such as the Depart
ment shall authorize. Nothing yet has been publish
| ed under its authority.
Justice 10 the dead and to the living alike requir
that we should do nothing prejudice the case in tn
mind of the court or the country. The honor Of tn
service and the integrity Of the laws are safe in tn
hands OF the public tribunals. Let abide this de
