Stiff and still the maiden found him.
And her anguish who can tell!
When weeping comrade told her.
One who loved her hero well,
That he lived and died soldier,
Not tear wept Isabelle.
With the morning s dawn they sought her.
And they found her where sh, fell,
But upon the field Of slaughter,
Lifeless lay poor Isabelle!

American Tea.

1t appears from the September number of the
Southern Planter that successful attempt has
boon made in Virginia to cultivate the Chinese
tea plant. Mr.. N. Puckott, who has given con-
siderable attention to tho subject, is to have spec-
linens of his tea at the Henrico agricultural fair,
in November. 1t has always boon urged that
the silk business must succeed in this country be-
cause tho climate is SO much like that of China
We do not see why the Same rule will not hold
good in relation to tea. We mako tho following
extracts from Mr.. p letter concerning It,:
The rolling Of the leaf into the form in which It
is brought from China, is wholly unnecessary,
but if it is desired, you have only to take tho lea f
after it is cleared Of the stalk and partly dried,
and, placing It between your finger and thumb,
give it tight squeeze.
Once in seed mover out. After you have on &c
sown tho tea seed you will never lack for plants;
for, manage you will. more seed will always
fall upon the ground than would be necessary for
any plant bed they will be- in the ground all the
wintor, and come up with overy rain during the
next summon, and you may either transplant
them, or you may thin them out into rows at the
proper distance. Thus, Notwithstanding the dry
ness of the season, have now volunteer plants
in the greatest profusion and Of the finest quality
| | assure you, sir, there is reason IN the
world why the farmers and gardeners IN the
Southern Statos should not grow their own tea,
and grace their tables with this delightful beve-
ra GO. infinitely moro pure and wholesome than
can be obtaned from the unknown, aduterateo
stuff that comes from abroad.

In the now melodrama recently got up at Chat

headed. and his hoad is exhibited TO the audience
by being placed on table in the centre of the
table, and his neck is fitted in hole in the con-
ire Of the leaf SO that the audience it looks pro-
cisely as though the mans head had been cut off
and stood up in pool Of its own blood upon the
table. On tho fifth night of the exhibition, wag
got into the third tier Of stage boxes, and by
some unexplained manGvro. managed to blow 4
lot of Scotch snuff the stage, just at the
timo the head was placed on the table. AS soon
as the snuff had began 10 settle down, the head
commenced sneezing. to the no small amuse-
ment Of the audience; and as the sneezng could
not bc stopped. the cutain fell amid roars of
laughter and confusion.
