Egypt and the United States.


A New York correspondent of the Boston
Traveller furnishes an interesting account OF
of the visit of Loutfy Effendi and Sami
Effendi, the commissioners from the Pasha
of Egypt to the New York exhibition. They
have, moreover, been charged with more
important duties than those which require
their attendance at the Crystal Palace
What they were the writer does not state,
but intimates that they were commissioned
to propose important commercial arrange
ments with the government. They have re-
Gently returned The writer says:
cit is this country of Egypt now that is
at our doors, desiring in some way, friend
ly alliance She has fruits to offer, within a
very few hours longer run than Palermo, and
at much cheaper rate. A Egyptian gem
tleman offered the other day to fill any
quantity of the ordinary orange and lemon
cases with fruit at sic cents the boo IN
Alexandria And then there are dates, such
as Americans know nothing about; which
for exquisite taste and beauty are unrlvalled
by any fruit And yet we put up with the
miserable, dirty trash that is offered IN our
markets, rather than to send to Egypt for
the genuine, classical article. So we allow
spectators to take the gum arabic of Egypt
of which this country uses an amazing
ouantitv-to Trieste and other southern ports
of Europe, and pass it through several marts,
before it is sufficiently dear to be offered in
our markets. And the same is to be said OF
other important drugs, for which that land
is famed and which are in demand in this
country.
On the other hand, Egypt desires many of
our manufactures. Almost anything of real
value will soon find market in a country
that's growing in civilized tastes and wants.
Many cloth fabrics would meet with good
demand, and, sent direct, would inevitably
supplant the miserable goods which are now
sold in that market under the American
name. Chairs and furniture of every de-
scription would be valued; for no country
can make these so cheap as ours, and Egypt
is particularly destitute of the raw material.
1t is also level land and land of roads
and American carriages-so light and easy,
and above all, so cheap-would go as fast as
wheels would carry them. An American
carriage in grand Cairo! 1t wonld be sold
in ten minutes. There are " fast men
there as we'll as here. am also assured
that cargo Of American hams would be
grateful to the Egyptians, who are no Turks
in the matter of pork; and whoever should
send them would receive grateful return
from people who have to content them
selves now with the dried up refuse Of Eu
ropean markets.

world for critical knowledge of the langua

the burning sun as a hod carrier. This is an
excellent idea 4; and if many of our young
grn,lemrn had to earn their dollars in that
way, how much less dissipation and crime
we would witness every day So of our
fashionable young ladies, if they, like some
of the poor seamstresses of our large cities,
had to earn their dollars by making shirts at
ten cents piece, how much less finery
would be seen about them; how much more
truthful notions would they have of the du
ties of life, and their obligation to the rest Of
the world.

To MAKE TOUGH BEEF TENpER.--To those
who have worn down their teeth in masti-
eating poor old tough COW beef, we will say
that carbonate of soda will be found rem,-

thick, rub over them small quantity Of
soda, wash off next morning, cut ii into
suitable thickness, and cook to notion. The
same process will answer for fowls, legs of
mutton, etc. Try it, all who love delicious.

The second point is illogical, and defeats
the fourth, fifth, and sixth theses in the
Gems series. If congress may not legislate
for the territory, whence Gnasmuch as ter
ritory is the creature of congress) does the
territory derive its power? If it come from
suuatter sovereignty, what need of looking to
congress for anything? Why not organize
at once as an independent sovereignty? In
denying to congress the power to legislate for
a territory, to prescribe what condition to
its existence it pleases not IN Uiolation Of the
constitution, is fatal TO the entire argument
reductiO ad dbSurJUm-and leaves the third
proposition no better off than the Others
for if congress under the constitution may
not make needful rules and regulations
for the government Of Il territory in "all J"
things, then it may not make rules and rcgu
lations for anything, and the claim set up of
/" self-government" exists outside of the
constitution, not in it.

name of the slave democracy north, claims
