even in robust health, are sensibly visited by
this affection of the heart when arriving in
Santa Fe, but it leaves them as they descend to
lower level. During a portion of my con-
hnement to my room, il seemed to me that the
ar had not body enough for the purposes Of
my lungs, and ] got the fancy, that if / could
have enjoyed half dozen gulps of the good,
sound, moist air, between the Blue Ridge and
the Atlantic, it would have done me more good
than half my physic Certainly this notion about
the discomforts growing out of the exceeding
rarity and dryness of the air was not all fancy,
for on descending from Santa Fe to Alga-
dones and Albuquerque, l experienced decided
relief, and had my restoration to health accele-
rated by the change. .y.a, s.g re.t
Scuryy is disease that in New Mexico, but
particularly in its capital, is both frequent and
fatal amongst Americans. 1t obtains more
| amongst the military than civilians, for the
former lead, or did lead, less active and
health-preserying life. The great insufioiency
or vegetables of all kinds but especially the
denial Of that best of anti-scorbutics, the Irish
potato, is justly accounted principal cause Of
the prevalence and fatality of erysipelas and
scurvy. Every consideration demands that no
effort be left untried to naturalize this valuable
root in the territory. Hitherto efforts have not
been successful, owing principally, as am in
formed, to the attacks of bugs upon the vines.
Dut perhaps the best plan after all would be to
improve the nafiUe potato Of the country, of
which specimens can be found in the noun
tains. do not know that the edibility of this
root has ever been tried, but obviously the sub
ject is well deserving all the attention that can
be given to it. 1t might, possibly be the very
thing now standing as a desideratum; and, in
this view, would suggest to the patriotic and
intelligent head Of the War Department, that
steps be taken to bring it into cultivation in
those gardens which either have already been, or
will soon be, laid out and maintained by and
for the use of the troops in the territory. |
think it likely, further, that if the Rocky
Mountain currant were to receive some atten-
ton from American cultivators in New Mexico,
and have the benefit of occasional irrigation
and ploughing, it would prove to be of surpass-
ing value. 1t might be planted in hedge-rows,
and with moderate share of attention might
become Of more real account to the health and
comfort of the people, as well as to the beauty
Of their farms and gardens, than even the grape
vine itself. In England, the black currant, Of
which the Rocky Mountain currant looks very
like variety, is quite popularity celebrated for
its remedial powers in several diseases. This,
at least, should encourage New Mexicans to-
wards fair attempt at cultivating and improv-
ing plant of which they probably stand in
great need; plant, too, seemingly pointed
out by nature herself to their prominent re-
gard and attention.

SUCCESS OF THE TEA PLANT IN THE UNITED
STATEs.-The last accounts which we published
in regard to the progress of the Tea plant in
South Carolina, under the cultivation of Junius
Smith, LII. d., stated that the experiment was
working finely. The following extract of let
ter from that gentleman, under date Of July 4,
shows that he has met with final success-an
experiment to which he has devoted large
fortune:
81 have now before me pot Of fresh green
tea from my own plantation, the first have
enjoyed. Having no experimental evidence in
this country of the effect of curing tea by solar
heat only, contrary to the Chinese, Indian, and
Javian mode Of curing by FIRE, or roasting in
| iron-kettles, | felt some reluctance to expose
| this my first experiment to the public gaze. and
therefore conducted the whole, from the picking
of the leaves to drinking the tea, in n privat te
way. / am much gratifed with the result of
this my first essay in manufacturing American
tea. The drying is SO simple that any farmer
in the United States can make his own tea, with
the same certainty and with the same ease as
he can make his own bread. ...
1.-THE fragrance is not SO high rs imported
Hyson tea, but the taste is far more pure and
clean in the mouth, although it leaves the stamp
Of fresh-made tea or rather tea from fresh
leaf 1t has not the slightest disagreeable taste,
but has full, delicious flavor, indicating in an
eminent degree, perfect purity, ana the pres
ence of a sweet refreshing beverage. Connois-
seurs will, perhaps, measure the quality of my
ten by their own, Of which they are accustomed.
But the comparison will not hold good My tea
is SO peculiar as / always use it in the Chinese
way, without sugar or milk, and have the taste
of the tea only, and cannot easily be mistaken
in the flavor and true properties of the tea. If
the tea be good, anything and everything added
to il is n detriment. If bad, use as much sugar
and milk as will neutralize the bad qualities,
and leave nothing but the taste Of sugar and
milk do assure you that am so delighted
with my pot of tea that have drank Of it half
dozen times whilst writing this article, and
nearly exhausted the teapot. My black tea
plants, since their removal in April, have grown
much slower than the green tea plants. Indeed,
the green tea plant is much more hardy plant
than the black"

THE CAPTIVE BoY.-The Texas Advocate
gives the following particulars of the capture
of the little son of Mr.. Hart, Of Refulgio coun-
ty, whose recovery from the Camanches VIC
have already noticed:
"The boy states that his horse was first shot
by the Indians and being thus on foot, they
seized him, mounted him on another horse, anu
bore him Off The next night after taking him,
he says, they seized and rode away Col. Lofts
horses, riding them into the mountains, as is
their custom, and then turning them loose. He
speaks Of his being compelled to subsist upon
horse meat as a hardship he was exceedingly
10th to endure. 1t constitutes the principal
food of these savages The lad seemed to be
rejoiced at his escape from n captivity SO cheer
less, and happy almost beyond measure, we
presume, at the prospect of soon returning to
fathers freside, to the endearments Of home
and civilized life
