The Tea Culture in the United States.

The New York Tribune has the following in
relation to Junius Smiths attempt to cultivate
the tea plant in this country
eve have late advices from the tea plantation
OF Mr.. Junius Smith, at Grcenville, S. G. His
plants are in blossom, and as healthy and flourish
ing as those of China ut the same stage of growth
Every thing looks as favorable and Mr.. Smith
feels abundontly encouraged. He expects to place
fresh tea on the tea tableS of London and Paris
in twenty days from his plantation. He has a
large number of plants, and tea seed enough for
hafa million more. The black descriptions BIOS
somed some time since, but lately the green plant
descriptions have also blosomed. Mr.. Smith Is
collecting about him quite force of laborers,
having recently sent to the North for about twen-
ty hands. Hohas also made very successful efforts
to grow the fig and almond. His next years
crop will bo quite AN important one. Should Mr..
Smith succeed In introducing the growth of the
tea plant into the United States, he will certainly
deserve statue of gold and the gratitude of the
whole country"

Points of the Horse.

A point of great Importance in the fore
leg of a horse, is the proper setting on of
the arm, which should be strong muscu-
lar and long. BY the lenghth Of this part
of the hare, added to the obliquity of the
shoulder, she can extend her fore parts
farther than any other animal of her size;
in fact, she strikes nearly as far as the
greyhound that pursues her, by this lever,
The proper position of the arm oftLe horse,
however,, is the result Of an obique shoul-
der. Whenissuing from an upright shoul-
der, the elbow joint. the centre Of motion
here will be inclined inward; the horse will
be what is termed pinned in his elbows
which causes his legs to fall powerless be-
hind his body. A full and swelling fore
arm is one of the most valuable points in a
horse, for whatever purpose he may be re-
quired.
If sportsmen were to see the knee Of a
horse dissected, they would pay more at
tention to the form and substance of it
than they generally do. 1t is very COM
plicated joint, but SO beautifully construct
ed that it is seldom subject to internal in
jury. Its width and breadth, however,
are great recommendations, as admitting
space for the attachment of muscles, and
for the accumulation of ligamentous ex-
pansions and bands, greatly conducive to
strength. The shank, or cannon bone,
can scarcely be too short 1t should be
flat, with the back sinews strong, detached
and well -braced This constitutes what
is called 'wiry leg.'-Round legs are al
most sure to fail.
As to the size of horse, it may be re-
marked that no very large animal has
strength in proportion to its size. There
has been many instances of horses, little
more than fourteen hands high, being equal
to the speed of hounds over the strongest
counties in England. For example, Mr.
VIM. Coke's 'poney,' as he was called,
many years celebrated in LcicesterShire.

PorAToEs ON WET LAND.-As fine pota-
toes as we have seen this year were raised
on low and wet piece of land, on the
farm of Mrs. Joanna Rowe. The place
where they were planted had been consid-
cred incorrigible and worthless, from its
low situation and boggy character of the
soil; but it was thrown up into sort Of
bed, with places for the water to run off,
and the potatoes planted without furrowing
The yield is very large, and the potatoes
do not rot, as is the case on higher piece
of land.-Beyast Journal.

DURABILITY OF RED CEDAR.-We have
heard of an old farmer, who, when asked
how he knew that cedar posts would last
forever said he had frequently tried the
experiment. Some may doubt his asser-
ton, yet its lasting powers have been found
to exceed long lifetime. At the head
of one of the graves in old St. Mary's,
Nd, there stands a cedar slab which, as
the inscription indicates, was placed there
in l7l7, and is still perfectly sound.

ABSORPTION OF RAIN-It is believed
that, if soils We're sufficiently deep and fer
tile, nearly or quite all the water which
falls would be needed, and but little would
run off in streams. Hence, streams are
found to diminish as population and i'm
provement advances. 1t has been found
that ffty-fve or fifty-six inches of water
falls annually at Natchez; and if forty-fivc
inches be taken as the average for the
whole Mississippi Valley, which is evident
ly within bounds, it will give an amount
falling on the whole valley, ten times
greater than the water discharged at the
mouth Of the river.
