Java. -ssrowsh Of Ceass and Pepper.

In extent, Java 10 about 700 miles IN length,
and IL var es from so TO LAO miles in width. Its
area 10 less thon q. 900 square miles. The face
Of the country is more or less broken by mouu-
tains, but the soil gensrally is rich and pr oduc
tive. The products are rice, sugar, coffee, pep.
per, spices, and profusion Of the finest tropicso
fruit. We were much interested In seeing some
Of these tropical productions growing. Coffee
IL cultivated here 70 az great perfection a. IN al
most any other part Of the world. 1t grows
upon large bushes, that very much resemble our
large chiBquepin bushes, and the grains Of cof-
fee are formed tw0in berry, about the size and
shape of our common plum. The skin Of the
berry is about az thick as that OF the plum, and
the colcr, when ripe, that Of pale scarlet. The
bush lie very productive. Every branch is loaded
with the berries, which grow two in place, on
opposite sides Of each other, and about one inch
and half apart When ripe, the skin bursts
open, and the grains Of coffee fall out on the
ground. But more general way 10 TO spread
something under the bush, and shake the coffee
down. Alter the outer skin is taken off, there
remains kind of husk over each kernel, which
IL broken of, after being well dried In the sun,
by heavy rollers. The coffee, after this, needs
winnowing, In order to be freed from the broken
particles Of the husk. Ithas been said by some
writers, that one bush will not, with another,
average more than q pound Of ceffse; bat II
seeInsed 10 me, though lcould only Judge from
appearances, that this was too small an allow
ance for each bush.
Black pepper 10 also raised to some extent on
the Island Of Java; but Sumatra. which lies just
across the Straits, Ia by far the most celebrated
for this commodity. Her pepper is, perhaps,
the finest and most abundant Of any one country
in the world. Black pepper grows on vine,
very much like our grape vine, and the pepper
vinevard. reminded me very much Of our Amer
ican vineyards Of grapes. The pePPer-graps
grows and looks, when green, a good deal like
our currants. There is this difference, however;
the currant mas each its own distinct stem, but
the pepper has not. Every grain grows hard on
| to one common stem, just az each grain OF In.
dian corn does on the cob, or husk, ss virgin
iaps incorrectly would cay. The color Of pep
Der, when first ripe, 10 almost bright red and
changes 10 the dead black, common 10 us, By b.
| ing exposed to the heat Of the sun.

Within the limits of the territories OF the

their subsistence will depend upon their skill as
horsemen and hunters, they accustom them
selves TO every exercise and privation which
can tend to harden their muscles and prepare
Them for their vocation. As matter Of course
the whole body Of these hunters are capital

SON Bay Company for ammunition and arms
they must submit TO any anc 1.-the arbitrary
rules imposed upon them, and they are heartily
tired OF these exactions.

IMPORTANT FROM vESrzuKLA-R.ne,oaI of the
Civil War.-The Boston Traveller, of the nd
inst, gives the following extracts from Letters
from veneruela to the fifth Of the present
month:
On the 24th Of June, a body Of armed horse
men attacked the dwelling Of President Mona
gas, with q view, 70 doubt, Of asssssinating
him, but after few shots they retired. About
the same time a number Of people rose against
the government In different parts Of the plains,
and civil war has again commenced. The Pre-
sident forthwith assumed extraordinary powers,
number Of persons were arrested In all the
cities and villages, and prosecutions without
number have been instituted.
There 10 no doubt that the patience Of many
Of the inhabitants 10 exhausted, but they are
totally without means, chiefs OF plans to over
turn the existing Government, the latter hay-
ing full power to raise money, by forced loans.
The contest will, Il Is thought, be sangulnary
ono, and its results viii probably be further to
crush the Industrial and commercial classes of
the country.
A postscript to letter Of the 5th says: Gen.
ersl Paez 10 reported to have disembarked at
Coro, Con the main land, opposite Curacao.) IL
such 10 the case, he has much probability of
gaining his cause, but only after a most bloody
contest.
