Tea Plant i'm South Carolina.

Mr.. Junius Smith of South Carolina who
has made several experiments for the intro
duction of the tea plant in that State, has
recently received an invoice of tea nuts
from China. They were found as fresh, and
sound apparently, as when packed. Mr..
Smith writes that the fundamental princi-
pie that China tea nuts will germinate, and
the tea plant grow and flourish in this coun-
try,is already practically established by the
various experiments which have been made.
His importation of tea plants this year ter
minated in total failure. Two cases of
China plants shipped from Calcutta for New
York are said to have persisted, together
with the ship. in the China seas. Anoth-
er case from Shanghai, arrived safely at N.
Y; but hence for Charleston failed to reach
that port, thus proving a serious loss Mr.
Smith looks forward to the time when our
hills and valleys will be covered with the
growth Of the tea plant, and our markets
amply supplied with choice tea OF our man
uiaCture.

The LceisIature-The Amende
Honorable.

We have more than once had occasion to
find fault with the present Democratic Leg
islature. In fact we have more than once
expressed the opinion that it was the most
worthless concern that had ever been call
ed Legislature. But we must do Justice
though the Heavens should fall and the
Legislature, by one single act is about to
atone for all the consumption of time, and
for all the noxious gas which it has blown
out to the public. We see, that on yester-
day bill was reported to the House of Del
egates, to prevent the destruction Of fish in
Washington county by the coculindus ber-
ry or wild indigo. We have already heard
tina. it is extremely difficult to keep grown
up men and women on proper diet. Gouty
men will drink wine, and dyspeptic women
will eat pickles and sweet-meats, no matter
what suffering may ensue; and we should
think it would be very difficult may, indeed,
If the attempt was made by any body less
powerful than the Virginia Legislature, we
should say impossible, to keep the fish
in Washington county on the proper diet
Should, however, the Legislature succeed
in this pisco-philanthropic work, we will not
only say "all praise" to them, but enthusi-
a,tically shout out 80 we gods and little
fishes" When the Legislature shall have
provided proper diet for the fish IN Wash
ington county we hope they will put the
cows about Poplar Lawn on a proper regi-
men. for they are now "chawing up" "hull
lots of wild ingans and the Legislature
ought to know that ingans, either tame or
wild, are as destructive to milk and butter
as the coculindus berry is to the fish in
Washington county. We await, hopefully
the action Of the Legislature. They need
have no conscientious scruples about the
COWS, for we do notremember that they are
mentioned in the Resolutions of '99-9, or
in either of the Baltimore platforms.-Pe-
tersburg Mtelhgencer.

highway, polluting the ears of our innocent
children, outraging the delicacy OF our ie- :
males, and disgracing the respectaolity Oh
our neighborhood.
Some of the facts above stated, are per-
fectly fragrant IN our community Some OF
them can be proved by competent witness
ses in our power TO name. Some Of them
can be testified to by individuals among the
undersigned, and of others we feel moral
certainty, arising from circumstantial evil
dence. We well know that it may be OBJ
iected that moral certainty in our minds,
however honest our minds, is not legal
proof. And we freely admit that when a
citizen is on trial for any charge implying
a civil pain or penalty, no evidence should
be considered connective, except the testi-
mony of witnesses on oath, delivered with
technical exactness. But we humbly and
urgently represent to you that In such
case as this, assurance. of facts rendered
to you by resident citizens of responsibility
who are interested in the prosperity OF the
neighborhood, are ar aH-sDEciens ground
for you to exercise that sovereign discre-
ton as to what persons and places are con-
venient and proper for this traffic, which
the laws have vested in you. We assert
that the refusal of permission to any citizen
to engage in this traffic, cannot be COM
planned of by him as judicial pain or pen
atty that the laws have made you the SOW
ereign regulators of this traffic, not in order
to the comforting or Withholding OF the prof.
its of it on any individuals as personal
right to them, but in order to the conven'
fence and good of the community, whose
rulers and guardians you are; and thai
you have the right to give OIL refuse license
on whatever grounds your own honest Judg
ments may perceive as sufficient, Thu:
believing, we respectfully present you ou
opinions, as above expressed our names
and our reputation for truth and love of or
DEF, as ground for proceeding in this case
When we ask that no license may bt
granted to any person at - to sell IN
toxlcating drinks, we would not be under
stood as indicating that We consider all Ii
censed places of sale as equally mischev
Gus. But your Worships will easily see
that when the evil has grown to its presen
outrageous height, and attracts to -
habitual current of dissipated people, par
tlal remedy will do us no good. We there
fore humbly and urgently petition that nj
license may be granted TO any person a
-or its vicinity to sell Intoxicating drinks
We respectfully ask it as right due to us
as orderly citizens, to whom rulers are min
listers of God for good as due to the deli
, cacy of our females, insulted by the bru
tahty which strong drink has provoked a
mong us; as due to the innocence Of GU
, children polluted by the evil example
they hear and see; as due to the safety o
our sons, seduced into ruinous vice by tn
proximity of temptation as due to our pc
cuniary interests, injured through the cor
ruption of our slaves as due to the goo
name of our neighborhood disgraced b.
these scenes of almost pagan indecency an
degradation.
