Tho leaves as soon as gathered, are put into WIDE

These leaves are stirred quickly about with kind

distinctive color of green tea is impaired to it by the
sheets of copper upon which it is dried. For this be-
lief there is not the slightest foundation since copper
is used for the purpose. Repeated experiments
have been made to discover, by unerring test,
whether the leaves of green contain any impregna
ton ofcopper, but in case has any trace of this
metal been detected.
The Chinese do not use their tea until it is about
year old, considering that it is actively narcotic

The tea plant is native of China or japan, and
probably Of both. 1t has been used among the ma
tives of the former country from time immcmoral-
1t is only in particular of the Chinese empire
that the plant is cultivated; and this tract, which is
situated on tho eastern side, between the 30th and
SD degrees Of north latitude is distinguished by the
natives the "tea country" The more northern
part of China would be too cod s. farther south the
heat would be too great. There are, however,a few
small plantations to be seen near Canton
Tho Chinese give to the plant the name of Icha
or 1ha. 1t is propagated by them from seeds which
are deposited in rows, four five feet asunder; and
so uncertain is their vegetation even in their native
climate, that it is found necessary as many as
seven or eight seeds in every hole. The ground be-
tween each row is always kept free from weeds and
the plants are not allowed to attain higher growth
than admits of the leaves being conveniently gathered
The first crop of leaves is collected the year af-
ter sowing; and when the trees are six or seven
years DID, the produce becomes so Inferior that thew
are removed to make FOR fresh succession.
The flowers of the tea tree are white, and some
what resemble the wild rose; these flowers are sue
ceeded by soft green berries and pods, containing
each from one to three white Seeds The plant will
grow in either low elevated situations but ALWAYS
thrves hest,a produces leaves of the finest quality
when produced in light, stony ground.
The leaves are gathered from one to four times dn
ring the year, according the age of the trees Most
commonly there are three periods of gathering: the
first commences about the first Of April; the second
at midsummer, and the last is accomplished during
August and September. The leaves that arc the ear
lest gathered, Of the most delicate color and the
most aromatic odor, with the least portion of either
fibre or bitterness. Leaves of the second gathering
are of dull green color, and have less valuable quail
ties than the former; while those that are last coec-
ted are Of dark green, and possess an inferior value
The quality is farther influenced by the age Of the

nritish Notions.

We trust none of our readers, who shall not
have previously seen them, will overlook the de
fered Foreign articles ON our FIRST page this morn
mo, Mr. Everett's Speech touches admirably
the proper relation between Production and Com
mercc. which is very nmperlecty understood
among us, and the succeeding article on the
Trade OF Great Britain and the United States is
., once instructive and gratifying.
The British Commercial Press and its echoes
IN this country reason most llogically on this
and kindred subjects. While the British Duties
on American Products were enormous and our
Duties ON British fabrics extremely light, these
presses contendcd that the resulting advantage
was entirely on our side, and that the high Duties
of Great Britain injured only herself. The Bal
ance Of Trade against us was matter OF not the
slightest consequence. But now that THIS me.
quality of Imports is modified, and the balance OF
trade turned in our favor, they are horfor-struck
things cannot 90 on 50; the American Tariff
must b. crushed and our country revert to her co.
lonia| position, or (rlghtful mischief will cnslie
This is all unreasonable. Great Britain re-
proaches us, and most Justly, for deirauding hen
citizens who are holders Of our State Bonds. We
ought to pay them, every fraction. Bot how are
I'VE ever to pay, while the Balance of Trade con.
Sinucs heavily against us or even until 1t turns
the other way Clearly, we cannot. If we
were TO go on buying Seventy Millions per an
mum Of Great Britain and selling but Fifty Mil
lons to her, we might change the form OF our in
debtedness, and render II more productive to the
creditor, but we never should really pay one far
teng, except by transferring our property here tc
Foreigners; we should really be running decpe!
an debt. But let US sell the Seventy Millions ant
buy but Fifty, and then we can begin really &c
pay off our debt. There is no other way TO dis
charge such a balance but by selling more thar
we buy; and they who abuse US lor Reputation
and yet find fault that we do not continue to ru.
10 debt, are strangely Inconsistent
